I'm here on vacation and of course I always need to check it out when I visit one of two staples here. Service is impeccable as they always ensure your needs are attended to. The bacon cheeseburger was also just as good cooked to the correct temperature. The only downside is they don't have a military discount.

However the 1000 island dressing that comes with it was minimal which made this burger more so on the dry side. If you decide to get this in person then definitely add more dressings. Overall a 3.5/5 but I'll err on 3 with this one. Definitely give it a try and get more dressing.

Old Town Lompoc doesn't seem like the best neighborhood, but this restaurant is worth the trip…read more However, according to those who know the area, it is safe enough to walk in and the restaurant is a block from the police station. We drove over from Solvang on state highway 246, which was nice because we got to avoid the rush hour traffic and construction on 101. The round trip is not bad. The service was excellent. Iliana our server was very nice and attentive. We got the chicken and meatball soup and the pan seared salmon. The soup was just ok, not bad, but not super exciting. The salmon was excellent. It is normally served with hollandaise sauce, spinach, and mushroom over mashed potatoes. We subbed the potatoes for more veggies. The veggies were well seasoned, salmon coked well, and sauce was a nice compliment. Their Diet Coke cups were huge. They only have one toilet and someone was in there a super long time when we wanted to leave, so plan wisely if you need to go. We had to hold it all the way home. The lot has adequate parking. The bar is only beer and wine. The restaurant is not super visible coming from the east, so listen to your map app when to turn. We had a good experience and would come back when in the area again. Recommend you give them a try.

We went on a Saturday night and there was no line. Service was quick and our server was attentive…read more Food was pretty expensive but tasted good. Downsides: there were extra charges for items that weren't phrased as costing extra (waitress asked us if we wanted soup with our meal as if it were an included side). Also there was only one restroom. Dimly lit and intimate space which was nice for the occasion.

Bar had cute wine rack made of wine barrels.

In the end, I wasted an entire hour of my life for nothing. There was zero transparency from the start. The cashier didn't bother to mention that the kitchen was severely backed up until after we had already paid. That's completely unacceptable. If there's going to be a long wait, customers deserve to know upfront so they can decide whether it's worth it. To make things worse, this place is cash only, and their credit card machine conveniently "wasn't working." That should also be clearly communicated before ordering, not after. Between the excessive wait, poor communication, and inconvenience, this was an incredibly frustrating experience. Completely unacceptable. And I hope there's an option for 0 star.

I love this food truck. I've seen it pass by Broadway so many times and always been tempted to try it and FINALLY got the chance when they were at the Down-Town Farmer's Market in Santa Maria and OMGosh! Everything was great, I had ordered the BullFighter, and it was spicy enough to get a kick and be like Wow but good enough to where you can still taste the flavors of the food. Great customer service, couldn't decide what kind of chips I wanted but never did I feel the rush from the guy attending the window. He was patient. This place is awesome and I can't wait to try everything off of their Menu, hopefully they keep attending the Down-Town Farmer's Market. read more

Big Truck Foods is really coming up with a unique style here. Majority of the food they have there is something I never tried. Just picture a hamburger but ten times upgraded. My favorite is the popper sandwich which is like a jalapeño popper but it's a sandwich. You have to remember though that it's not McDonald's so the food does take 7 mins to make or so. I give this company 5 stars because the customer service is great, the food quality and the price is fair. If you like trying something new and add new taste to your life then give it a try! read more

I've had the Monster Burger and the Ace Burger, my wife had the Monster Grill and my son had the Noah Special. Perfect fries and prices and very reasonable.
