Great food truck! I have known the owner John for many many years!! When he bought the truck I was not sure about his sanity... but it became so amazing . Not sure what is going to happen to this great food truck business as John passed away in May (2023) from cancer. Such a loss for Knoxville. If you are interested in taking on a ready to order food truck contact me. read more

Went to a volunteer dinner at Fanatics Brewing Company. We got 2 burgers and 2 kids hot dogs. My kids didn't love the crispy part of the hot dog (they thought it looked cool but too crispy). I got the veggie burger with sweet potato fries. It was good. I don't eat half of the bun but I had to scrape the guacamole and spinach off the bottom bun to get to eat it. My husband got the Copper Head burger and he liked it. My husband and younger daughter liked the regular fries while my older daughter and I liked the sweet potato fries. It was good. There were a lot of people in line so everything took a while but it was a solid 4 stars. read more

I decided to have a food truck for a party that I was having at our house and after searching the local food trucks, decided on Forks On The Road. The owner, John Gabriel, was very nice on the phone and easy to work with. He had no problems with a couple menu changes I requested. He arrived at our house well before the party started and was ready to serve on time. I wish I could remember the lady who helped him because both of them were so nice, friendly, efficient and just great! Our guests are still talking about the delicious food as well as the service! They stayed until the party was over, which was so nice. Honestly, John was so wonderful that I want to have a party just so that I can hire him again!!!!! He not only knows how to prepare & serve excellent food.......but he knows good work ethics and how to do his job right! read more

I recently had the opportunity to dine at this food truck. I had heard many great things. Preorders were taken and when I went to pickup my wings I was informed they didn't have wings that day. I went with the Burchett Burger with cheese & fries. The burger was pretty good. I would say above average. The fries were good other than they were over-seasoned for my tastes. The disappointment for me and the reason I will never select this food truck again was the person taking orders and handing out the food. She was very rude to many people the day they were at my place of work. Food = B Service = D- read more

After the beer run, we raced down to the food truck festival, which sucked because it wasn't even packed with food trucks..I saw this one and ordered the black bean slider with regular fries and ate some sweet potato fries with a cinnamon sugar dip from a fellow yelper. I considered it pricey for the quality. My friends were amazed with the black bean slider but having so many before makes my taste buds immune to typical burgers. At least it wasn't dry! As for the sweet potato fries, I found the paired dip an interesting twist, since it turned it into more of a sweet than savory side dish. read more

The sliders are always great here. The Cali burger and the Route 66 are my favs. Order the sweet potato fries for $1 extra and they come with this amazing Maple sauce. This is truly an amazing food truck for burgers and fries. read more

I'm over here at the Floor and Decor getting tile samples for the spare bathroom remodel and they had FREE sliders and fries from this establishment paid for by floor and decor, we couldn't resist... I have eaten at this food truck before and like always we enjoyed it very much. It's the perfect size hamburger if your like us and on a diet. Got the cheeseburger and fries, real hamburger meat unlike McDonalds and it wasn't a frozen patty. Fries were really good , not that greasy or overcooked. Really good. Great friendly smile from the gal that greeted us and asked what we would like cheeseburger or hamburger. Will eat here again... read more

Very good sliders! I especially like the Copperhead, but the others are good also. The fries were a little off today though, lukewarm and not up to par. However despite this being my first review I have visited this food truck several times and never had bad fries so don't let my experience today keep you away. Besides the sliders have always been great and today was no exception! read more

Forks On The Road - Food Trucks Near Me

For me, these are the best burgers in town. I love them. You can't go wrong with any of them, but I think I love the Copperhead best. They pay attention to all of the details - even the buns are delicious. The price is great too - $8 for 2 sliders and fries. And the fries are very good. They serve them with homemade ketchup. I love it. I only have one critique: it is super hard to find this truck. Seems like their schedule changes fairly often, and I have more than once gone to a scheduled spot and not found them there. However, when I do find them I always stop! read more

I absolutely love these burgers. I have tried all of them and the Cali burger is always a great choice. Fresh toppings and delicious hand cut fries to go with a great price $8. The guy working the truck is always extremely polite and offered us free water while we waited for our burgers. Overall great experience would recommend to anyone in the mood for burgers/sliders. read more

Fantastic. One of the best sliders I've ever eaten. It's hard to find really hot and spicy stuff around here anymore, but the Hot rod sliders set me on fire, and I loved every bit of it. And when I say sliders I don't mean some Krystal sized mini burger, but these things are huge and delicious. If you see this truck anywhere, stop and order. I don't care if you have to yell at them on the interstate. Do it. You won't be sorry. read more

I had the Route 66 burger and fries. AMAZING! Do not hesitate to stop and eat with this truck. You will not be disappointed and the price is great for the quality of food you receive. read more

The beauty of food trucks is you can get extremely high quality food relatively quickly without having to pay 20 percent gratuity for sitting in a restaurant. Canny F needs to remember that. Forks on the Road has extremely well crafted burgers that comes with toppings like brie, gouda, specialty sauces (made with things like apple pie moonshine), berry jam, and maple aioli. Their sweet potato fries are delicious and guilt-free, and their service is always profession! A definite got-to-try when you're in town. read more

Yummy! Finally got the chance to try out This fabulous food truck at an event at RiverView Farm. I forgot to take a picture (whoops), but I tried a Route 66 slider and chicken carbonara slider with fries. The Route 66 is a grilled burger patty with cheddar, bacon, grilled onions, ketchup and lettuce. This is a great burger! My family also tried the Route 66 sliders and loved them! Perfectly cooked and juicy. The chicken carbonara was my favorite! It's a piece of grilled chicken breast with provolone I believe, bacon, lettuce, tomato and spicy ranch. It's so delicious!! The spicy ranch has a great kick, and the chicken was perfectly seasoned. The fries were good, nothing special, but good. A slider meal is $9 and comes with fries and two sliders of your choice. This is a great truck for families too because of the slider size! Check them out! read more

Delicious! I just enjoyed the Copperhead burger with sweet potato fries. The fries came with an amazing maple dip. Service was quick and friendly, and I can't wait to go back! read more

Tonight we went to their advertised location for a second time and the truck was a no show - again. Too bad - good food if you can track them down. read more

I have always loved this place. Price is great. Amazing little sliders and the sweet potato fries are spot on. My favorite slider is the California, it has everything my taste buds desire - burger, gouda, avocado and theres also something sweet. I can usually catch them at hops and hollars check it out! Nom nom nom read more

The options for people who don't eat beef are great! the chicken and black bean sliders are always well-cooked and well-seasoned!

The cream cheese sauce with the sweet potato fries is ingenious! The Copperhead Road burger is a must, and served fresh and warm, better than an restaurant burger you can get. 11/10 would recommend. read more

Made a reservation with FOTR in June to cater our corporate event in August. Eight days before my event, I call to check in and FOTR informs me they are cancelling my reservation in order to serve another larger company. Basically, the larger company's business is worth more than mine. 8 DAYS PEOPLE!!! They didn't call me....I called them! I just can't believe a small business would treat another small business like this. It's a small town FOTR. Keep this up and you will be finished in no time. read more

Best food truck in Knoxville ... You would be cheating yourself if you didn't give him a try!

BEST and I mean BEST burgers I've ever had in my life! I don't know what they put in them but it's something so unique and delicious! My hubby and I are addicted!!! read more

Ok! I hope this isn't a crazy harsh review but here goes. I was at a festival and saw this truck. I've never tried this one and thought ok...i could eat a slider, that sounds good right now. So i head on over and guess what?? I didn't see any sliders on their menu. I don't know maybe i totally missed it out of the 4 items but i didn't. So i thought, weird, but no biggie. I saw a chicken sandwhich with ranch and decided i was going to go with that. It was a sandwhich and chips for $9. My girls wanted fries so i got a separate order of fries for $4 and a drink for a $1. While I'm waiting I'm really second guessing my decision as they have ranch bottles from like US food services or somewhere like that. I'm assuming that's what was on my sandwhich because it definitely didn't taste homemade. I don't know but something about a food truck makes me think homemade. However, i eat a fry and I'm pretty impressed. So i sit down to eat and i pull the bun from the chicken and i don't like the looks of the chicken one bit. I take my first bite and i get a big nasty bite of bone/cartilage. I know that's not their fault but it was a big huge turn off. I was starving so i continued to make my way through it for just a few more bites. It's all i could eat. Super unimpressed for essentially a $9 sandwich. I hardly ever eat fast food and haven't in some time but it was definitely equivalent to a Wendy's grilled chicken sandwich. Didn't seem local or fresh but for sure seemed frozen. I could be wrong and just have gotten the grossest piece of chicken ever served and i hope that's the case. If it was fresh then i apologize. I am giving 2 stars because they were really nice and i hate dumping on someone's business like that but it was very disappointing. Also, the fries were really yummy. I saw another review say they made their ketchup. Not that night they didn't. It was in a box with a pump from Heinz or somewhere. I may try a slider but I'm going to research where the meat comes from before i attempt them again. read more

Forks on the Road has always had great food, but has THE WORST business plan. I have experienced his flakiness on three different occasions and am done. Cancels last minute with no remorse or solution of how to make right on his cancellation. I will NEVER eat at his truck again. read more
