| - Have you ever worked in the food industry? If so, avoid this place at all costs to avoid the massive frustration you will encounter when you watch them attempt to build pizza. This sounds trivial, but it took us 37 minutes to receive two half pizzas, and the primary reason was very poor build workflow. Most of the time, it seemed like they were confused about what was supposed to be on a pizza and were constantly taking things out and putting it away. 37 minutes is far too long for a food truck to deliver the goods. There was also a great deal of confusion as to when someone's order was up, as they also failed to call out names on a number of occasions. I watched the chef not call a name and put the pizza on an oven, only to later have a group that was standing there for some time finally go inquire. Turns out the chef had been keeping the pizza on top of the oven for no reason the entire time. He had not called for them. Pretty disappointing as I think they had been there longer than I had!
A few positive points; topping selection is excellent offering some legitimately impressive variety from artichoke hearts to pine nuts. The sauce tastes home made and compliments the toppings well.
I am told the majority of it is gluten free, which makes this a home run for those allergic--but not necessarily the average food-truck-goer. Crust is an integral part of wood-fired pizza, so the crust truly falls flat on its face here, as it is gluten free. It has an almost cardboard-like taste and is incredibly tough, thin, and homogeneous. Of course, this won't matter for celiacs (and I'm sure it's actually quite good from a gluten-free perspective), but I wasn't impressed. Ultimately though, I was happy to just finally receive my pizza.
Maybe it's growing pains, or new staff. Maybe I'll have to give it another try. But unless you are allergic to gluten, and especially if you're on a schedule, I simply cannot recommend it.
