Rescue Dog's came through our neighborhood this past week for a block party/food truck roundup. I'd…read morenot heard of them prior to this event but thought that their mission (lightoflife.org) was noble and so I wanted to contribute. My wife and I ordered the Big Cheese and the Big Tex and a side of fries. The Big cheese was a little underwhelming in that the Mac and cheese was pretty standard and overcooked, there weren't many jalapeños slices, and the hot dog is just boiled and plain. The Big Tex was also just a boiled dog (no grilling here), but came with more peppers, onions, cheese and had a smoky sauce drizzled on it that was nice. The fries were thick cut and crispy and seasoned with more than just salt so those were nice too. Overall meal was about $17 before tip which isn't too bad but seems a little steep--I take comfort in knowing that it's at least for a good cause.

I stopped by here earlier today for dinner. Our neighborhood has food trucks come every Thursday…read moreand on this day, it was Rescue Dogs turn. This food truck is more of a trailer that is towed on the back of the truck and on the day we were there they had 2 people working it. They were slammed and so there was the game of trying to keep up with orders without taking too many. Their menu says proceeds are for the light of life rescue mission which is nice. For dinner on this day I decided to order a number of items to split with my wife and so went for the big tex as well as a southern belle, fresh cut fries with cheese and a Mac and cheese with bacon. The hot dog selection was the toughest choice for me as I was between the chili chaloochi and the big tex before the amount of good sounding items on the big Tex won out. It was described as a hot dog with grilled onions, sweet peppers and jalepenos with Cajun seasoning and also topped with tomatoes, shredded cheddar and cowboy mayo and the southern belle was described as their spicy chicken selection with fried chicken strips, pickles and chipotle sauce served in their signature grilled hot dog bun. After about a 15 minute wait or so, our food was ready and I was headed home. Whenever I got home the first thing I noticed was that they had forgotten my bacon on the Mac and cheese and cheese on the fries which was disappointing since I had paid for both. At that point I was not expecting to give them anything higher than a 3 star review. In any case, I first started with the big Tex and I have to admit that I loved it! The grilled onions, sweet peppers and jalepenos all added some nice flavor to it and the deep fried hot dog was delicious. It was definitely the best hot dog I have had in a long time and I didn't feel bad spending the $7 on it. After that I tried the southern belle. It was on the same buttered bun which the hot dog was on which was tasty. The chicken itself had a nice golden color to it and tasted good enough and I enjoyed the chipotle sauce. I only wish that it had more spice for something that was called spicy. With both of my entrees complete I was able to try both of the sides. I started with the fries which you could tell were freshly cut. They were well seasoned and both my wife and I enjoyed them. Last but certainly not least was the mac and cheese which was a creamy Mac and cheese. It was a decent Mac and cheese but nothing to tell my friends about. The bottom line for me is that I would head back to the rescue dogs food truck again in the future. I really enjoyed my hot dog and would be interested in trying their signature chili chaloochi.

Our neighborhood had…read moresigned up a number of food trucks to come on Thursdays and this Thursday happened to be The Mac and Gold Truck. Since it's a food truck, there's not too much to say about it other than it's a nice yellow color that reminds you of cheese. For dinner on this day I decided to go with the buffalo chicken Mac and cheese while my wife went with the lobster Mac and cheese. There was maybe a 5 minute wait between ordering and our food being ready and afterwards we headed back to our house to eat. My buffalo Mac and cheese ended up being quite good as both the buffalo chicken and blue cheese added great flavor to the dish. However, as it should be, the Mac and cheese was the star. The pasta itself was cooked nicely and the cheese sauce had a great flavor to it. There was an ample amount of it too and which means that I was able to enjoy Each and every piece of pasta. My wife really enjoyed hers too and we were both pleased that the lobster wasn't exorbitantly priced. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. Both my wife and I enjoyed our Mac and cheese and I would be interested in trying more of their flavors.

Wasn't sure what to expect because most Mac & Cheese at restaurants is overrated. There are two…read moresizes, a snack size and a regular. The regular is relatively large. They had 3 specials and/or Plain Mac or build you own with about 6 items to build your own. Was pleasantly surprised with my order of Prosciutto & Lump Crab Mac. The cheese is definitely a sharper cheese which made it a winner. It came with lumps of crab and crumbled prosciutto, a great combo.

It was a toss up between a 4 and 5 star rating on this truck. The food was not out of this world…read morebut I certainly didn't have anything to complain about either. I got the Fun Guy with French Onion soup and my husband got the Rastafarian with potato salad. He loved his! My french onion tasted like regular french onion soup. The fun guy was really good if you are into mushrooms--- which I am. Great service and super friendly. May I add it was under 25 degrees and they were out there busting their butt. I felt so bad for the girl taking orders because she was freezing! I will add this one on my list of food trucks I will come back for.

I will definitely be keeping my eyes peeled for them in the future. If you see them around the Burgh, make sure you stop by and try some of their delicious food!

Very reasonable prices for a good amount of food. Hope to see them again in the neighborhood soon.

In 2021, at the Greater Pittsburgh Food Truck Festival, I ordered a platter of food from Pittsburgh Pierogi Truck. I rated the potato-cheese pierogies as 4.5 stars and the haluski as 2.5 stars. I really enjoyed the dough and filling of the pierogies, but I did not like the color and taste of the cabbage in the haluski. I appreciated that the employee had a cheerful personality. In 2025, at the BaconBurgh festival, I ordered more foods from this truck. I ordered a #1 platter that contained three pierogies, haluski, and one stuffed cabbage for about $14. I rate the potato-bacon pierogies as 4.5 stars, the bacon haluski as 4 stars, and the bacon-stuffed cabbage as 3.5 stars.

Christie (@cmnst4 ), the owner, was genuinely so kind when we talked about coming in-warm, easy to chat with, and proud of what they've built. That energy carries through because the staff was extremely friendly and honestly couldn't wait to make up my order. I love that it's an open kitchen. You can see them pressing tortillas, building everything fresh, and actually talk to them while they're making your food. It feels interactive and intentional instead of rushed. We tried a handful of things, but I have to specifically mention the chicken tacos on a corn shell and the quesadilla because they were exactly what I wanted-flavorful, fresh, and done right. Not over-the-top, not trying too hard. Just solid food made by people who care. And that's the kind of spot I'll go back to.

The base was a small tortilla topped with a smaller fried tortilla, topped with the fish and mild jalapeño coleslaw. It was small but very tasty. If you follow my reviews, you know that I don't eat dessert. Because I had such a light lunch, I requested their special dessert, Tres Leche. This was a disappointment. It was a large square of white cake soaked in milk and covered with coconut and topped with a slice of maraschino soaked canned pineapple. It lacked the richness that I knew in Mexico. The pineapple was a distraction. There was only 2 other tables occupied while I was there. The server provided the perfect amount of attention and was very pleasant. Was surprised, however, with a surcharge for using a credit card.
