    Back East crew ready to feed the crowd!
    Trang W.

    So nice to have Back East BBQ and crew to come to our school event and provide some of their yummie food for the attendees. The crew were awesome and super friendly which made the whole event fun. My husband really enjoy his plate of BBQ and sides. It was a great deal for only $10! Again thank you for coming and supporting a local school. We can't wait to have you back for future events!

    Stumbled upon this BBQ food truck at Stone Throw Brewery tonight! It was close to the end of their night and so we told them we were ordering for 6 people...he asked us if we would trust him with our order He put together 3 GENEROUS portions of food to be shared family style! We got *Beef Brisket, Black Bean and Corn Salad and Potato Salad *Mixed Greens and Hush Puppies *waffle Fries topped with Fry Sauce and Cheese! Everything was so delicious...the Beef Brisket so tender and so tasty! They also had many different sauces to add...we tried a little of everything...the one BBQ sauce was so good...tangy and great depth of flavour! We chatted with them a bit and they gave us a great deal on our family style plates! Thank you Back East for the great BBQ tonight we really enjoyed it and would highly recommend it...a great pairing with the Stone Throw Brewery!

    Amazing food and wonderful service! I am looking foreword to the next visit! Seriously worth it! We had their fries with fried chicken! So good!

    The C3PO... pulled pork on a pretzel bun.  So delicious I was half finished before I remembered to take a picture!  ($3)

    It's been fun watching this "food cart" (though they don't even have a cart...yet) grow and mature over the past couple of years. It's clear this is a couple with a passion for BBQ, and (more importantly) a talent for pulling it off and creating some wonderful dishes. Their pulled pork is rich and delicious, and their brisket (which sells out quickly) is worth the trip. If you catch them on "$4 tapas" day it's fun to try several different small bites. And whatever you do, don't miss their hush puppies! I could eat those all night (and several times, I have)!

    Pulled Pork Gumbo, wonderful depth of flavor.

    Oh man. So delicious. From the sauces to the hush puppies. Love it. We go to the farmer's market just to eat lunch at this place!

I've heard of El Pollo Feo, but hadn't had the chance to check 'em out until I recenty found myself drawn to K2 on a sunny Saturday afternoon. I ordered their basic smash, which was just $10 (a screaming deal in today's economy). I did pay for quite the generous $4 side of fries, too. It was allll so good. The smash burger was dripping with cheesy goodness, and the shoestring-style fries were perfectly crispy, salty, and a lovely accompaniment to the burger (and my Oktoberfest beer). I will most definitely be returning soon and trying one of their other burger options. They also have chicken burgers!

I gave it one more bite, and even the grilled onions were terribly flavored, how is that possible? Soggy bun, oversalted burger, super dry on the edges, awful flavor. I'm sure I must have caught them on an "off" day, but I won't risk it again. I even had to go to my favorite smashburger joint the next day to "heal" from the experience. I was worried I would be turned off burgers for life. Super sad to have to report this, but I'm somewhat of a burger expert. :( Update: I ordered the Mary Plain Blige on April 28, 2026

    This evening my wife and I got to try the "WTF" food truck while enjoying a show in the Barkley…read moregreen. We could tell by the size of the line that the food must be great. Inside the truck the team was hard at work dropping fryers and flipping burgers so we didn't have to wait long to place our order. First off, the Chicken Bacon Ranch sandwich. Breaded chicken, lettuce, tomato, Swiss cheese, ranch, and of course bacon all placed elegantly between two large golden buns. Very delicious and with Swiss cheese was a unique choice that I appreciated. Next we shared the Cowboy Burger... when I went to pick up our food I knew we had made a great choice. The server handed us a hefty beef burger that was stacked high with cheese, bacon, tomato, pickles and onions rings, smothered in bbq sauce with a crispy onion ring on top to give this burger the golden crown it deserves. Be warned this burger stood almost 8 inches tall. A couple of criticisms I had were that it was difficult to enjoy these delicious burgers on a small food container. I would definitely like to see this food in a brick and mortar restaurant one day so I can properly enjoy these monster burgers. Secondly the fries were very greasy. I know some people may enjoy them but they are not my favorite. In conclusion this was a great food truck and I will definitely have to try some more items on their menu next time!

This summer, not so enthused. Convinced my husband to try their chicken sandwich ($11) and I ordered the fish sandwich ($13). We were charged $29 & some change. (do the math, which is obviously not their strong suit - more on that later). I was with a group of friends and should have paid more attention the overcharge at the time. When we got our order and walked it over to the wine bar, I had a tasty fish sandwich but on a greasy bun (yuck) and my husband was served a hamburger, not the chicken he ordered. It was a 2 item order and if the ONLY job you have is to get our order correct, just do it. BTW, the burger was $1 less than the chicken so at this point, we were overcharged close to $6. When I went to complain, the line was 20 people long so I just let it go. Today, during the Noisy Waters Festival, we decided to give them another try and I've been hearing how good their tots are. Tots were tasty for sure but barely warm. It was happy hour so we were charged $3.28 instead of $4 (great deal!). I handed the young woman a $5 bill and 3 dimes, saying I didn't need the 2 pennies back. She looked at me, quite bewildered, paused a bit and gave me back my 3 dimes, saying "I don't think this is going to help." I mean, I did save $0.30 but really?!?! It's Basic math!

    If you find yourself anywhere near the Tulip Festival, make sure this spot is on your list…read more During our weekend of tulip sightseeing, Stella Sopra ended up stealing the show. We came for the flowers, but this little food truck parked at Tulip Valley Winery delivered the kind of meal that sticks with you. There's something magical about pairing genuine, well-crafted Italian food with a flight of local wines. Chef Alberto runs the whole operation himself cooking, serving, sharing stories, and making you feel like you've been invited to Sunday lunch at his family's table in Italy. His passion shows in every bite. I've had plenty of eggplant parm over the years, but this one? Best I've ever eaten. Served in a simple plastic container yet unforgettable perfectly balanced sauce pasta cooked just right, and eggplant that was tender and full of flavor. My husband ordered the chicken mushroom ravioli, and I was tempted to sample half of it. Big, pillowy pasta filled with rich, savory goodness an absolute win! We also split a Caesar salad (because veggie balance is important) and ended on a high note with tiramisu. It was airy, creamy, and just espresso kissed enough to keep you going back for another spoonful. We lingered on the patio glass of wine in hand, soaking up the scenery and wondering how a food truck in the middle of tulip country had turned into one of our favorite dining experiences in ages. The Stella Sopra truck travels between Bellingham and Mount Vernon. If you see it parked anywhere don't overthink it. Order whatever catches your eye. You'll definitely leave happy.
