    the side of a food truck
    Jeremy S.

    I didn't have that great of a meal from the food truck. I had the Queso Molé Nachos. Basically the sauce just tasted like Molé amd no cheese and the chicken wasn't that great, had some fatty pieces.

    Oh my god. Let me tell you. The FLAVORS. THE TEXTURE! A beautifully curated dish that was comforting, filling and refreshing all at the same time. I just asked Cesario to make me his favorite thing (sans cheese) and I got a roasted veggie and chicken bowl. Topped with a perfectly cooked egg and a mix of crunchy seeds, it was like nothing I've ever eaten before. I believe I got the mole verde sauce (which is gluten free) and it was so full of flavor and umami! If you like mole... or if you like good food in general, you will LOVE my mom's mole!

    Mole queso / Mole Verde  The "works" nachos Yes!
    Mark F.

    YES! These guys nailed it! Nothing makes better beer food than nachos except for really kickass awesome nachos! I got to try their pop-up offerings at my favorite local brewery Steel Bonnet the other day and I was more than stoked! Two humble guys offering up really well prepared and super tasty nachos with either perfectly roasted veggies (potato, carrot, butternut squash), or pulled Turkey, or "The Works" (a combo of both) topped with one of three home made (Mom's recipe) Mole's. Traditional Mole, Mole Queso, or Mole Verde were the choices or any combo of the three. I got to try all three and my favorite was the Mole Queso. Although all three were excellent, they said the Mole Queso was made with 4 different cheeses in the mix. Rather than getting the gooey cheese experience one would imagine, you get a more complex and fuller bodied mole with an awesome texture. The nacho chips were homemade and cut in a unique wide aspect that was great for trying to build the perfect nacho bite(s). The chips were thick so the crunch lasted to the last bite of the perfect portion... One gripe is the price, $15 for the works. A previous picture from Yelp showed the same dish for $3 less just 9 months ago. That being said, these were fricken awesome nachos and I would eat them again and again. The high price pop-up / food truck trend is here to stay and that sucks but these guys make a great and unique treat that makes even the best beer more fun to drink. Definitely give'em a try!

    Take home mole is okay. I added extra spices for depth of flavor. Tacos are fresh and made to order, but are not full of flavor.

    Five Star Catering is INCREDIBLE!!…read more I am not one to leave reviews (I think this is my first ever haha... but I had to this time!) I cannot sing the praises of Five Star Catering enough! From start to finish of the wedding planning process they excelled in communicating, understanding our vision, working with our budget, and making us feel so taken care of. The wedding day could not have gone more smoothly. The appetizers were gorgeous and our guests raved about them, the drinks from the bar were so creatively done and the hard huckleberry lemonade they helped us to create as one of our signature drinks was a HUGE hit with the guests! The wedding feast was absolutely delicious. My husband and I were so impressed by the presentations and especially taste of the food. IT WAS SOOOO GOOD. Five Star Catering's wedding food is not your typical "wedding food." We all felt like we went out to a five star restaurant and guests were non stop talking about how tasty all of the food was. The service staff was just wonderful. They were all so kind and professional! Every glass of wine was full, plates were cleared quickly, they switched to coffee and desserts seamlessly, they didn't miss a beat. It was wonderful. And the late night nacho bar was so darn good!! Us and our friends and family were so well taken care of all night. We did not have to worry about a thing on the night of our wedding thanks to Five Star Catering. Our wedding reception was made so perfect thanks to Laura and her Five Star Catering crew! Laura puts her heart and soul into making every wedding a dream come true and thats what my husband and I felt at our wedding. We cannot thank you enough Five Star Catering!! You made our wedding day the best EVER. 110% Recommend them to any couple getting married and looking for a caterer. They do so much more than just the food!!

    Amazing catering company. Everything was definitely 5 stars!…read moreThe 2 bartenders made the day memorable! Custom drinks and very entertaining! Lukas and Luis! I would definitely request them for your next party.

There was a ridiculously large amount of rice and beans as well. Tortillas were freshly warmed on the griddle before they assembled each taco for our guests, which made for a delicious taco meal. Communication was consistently prompt, clear, and friendly all across the board from emails with booking details to calls for morning-of arrival and setup. That crew is on top of their game. The set up was great, the service was fantastic, and the food was really delicious. We had lots of leftover food and they packed it all neatly and efficiently. I didn't have to worry about containers for them - they did it all. A thousand thank-you to AnaLesia for the most excellent communication, and Frankie and Sofia for flawless and the absolute friendliest day-of service. My guests were so happy and so was I!

They were wonderful to work with, from start to finish: very responsive to our initial inquiries, pricing was as expected, and the team showed up on time and was ready to serve food on time.

But everything was delicious, and people were going back for more!

I highly recommend their short ribs, baked havarti oysters, and do not pass on Bruces famous brownies! We absolutely loved how great the team was to work with as well. From the very beginning Bruce listened to the tastes/foods that were important to us and delivered on our special day. Jordan was a true hero handling our event rentals and making sure we had everything we needed for our bar service. Both were very responsive the entire time, and even hosted us for a tasting a few months prior to the event allowing us to sample what we were getting ourselves in to. I'd like to add that we also played a round of golf with them- these guys really love what they do and the people that they get to work with and it was really special for us to gain friends along the way. Thank you guys again for such a wonderful experience and we can't wait to work with you again soon!

We received so many great comments from our guests about how much they enjoyed all the dishes and desserts, and the impeccable and friendly service.

Her team delivered above and beyond on the day. The food and drinks were all amazing. Service was expedient and well executed all throughout the night. The desserts were absolutely exceptional. So many guests raved about how amazing the peanut butter chocolate truffles, chocolate chip cookies (seriously the best we've ever eaten), cannolis, and chocolate brownie parfaits were.

I ordered a street taco with pollo because the photos looked so good! And I got the large nachos with birria (shredded beef in stew) with everything on it. (There were only these two meats available, so I wanted to try them both.) The order came out in roughly 15 minutes, which was good. The size of the items were okay, but surprisingly the meats were not very warm. The taco looked bland, but it tasted good with the cilantro and diced onions. The nachos, on the other hand, was underwhelming -- mainly because it sat underneath a mountain of what looked and tasted like Velveeta cheese. The squeezed dollop of sour cream didn't make it look more appealing. I think the tacos and platters are the way to go.
