We tried the Mac and Cheese and Pulled Pork. The Mac and cheese was unfortunately quite mushy (which I know some prefer, though I do not). The pulled pork was quite moist, and I enjoyed the BBQ sauce it was served with. read more

So here's the thing. I'm a wedding venue. I'm not actually eating the food. It might be amazing. However! I would not recommend this business for a wedding or event with more than 30 people. The event I'm hosting today is approximately 90 people. (They were expecting just over 100 But actual guests that showed up were around 90 including the wedding party.) Food service started at 5:00 p.m.. it is now 5:54 p.m. And this is the size of the line for guests to be fed. Are you freaking serious!? The poor older people in line keep shifting from side to side and look very uncomfortable and that they're wishing desperately for a chair. It is outrageous to make people wait this long for dinner service at an event. Most of the guests will be long done with their meal before the second half of the guests even begins eating. If this business wants to do larger private events, they need to hire more staff And work out a better and easier way to get people their food more quickly. read more

She has now visited our residential property twice in Lansing and our residents absolutely right rave about her food!! Best BBQ in the midwest!!! read more

The mac was plain and flavorless. The ribs were tough and chewy. When I seen the ribs coming from the microwave I knew what I was about to eat. Luckily it was free. They catered at my work. Service was ok. The trailer looked nice. The ribs tasted ok. But missed. Maybe Chicago bbq is meant to be that way. My coworkers said the pulled pork (not pulled but chunked) was good as well as the jerked chicken. read more

First, the baked beans were delicious! However I am very disappointed in the rest of the food. My job hired them as a reward for us and I chose to ignore the fact that people were saying the food was nasty. I waited in the hot sun for an hour, which would have been worth it if the food was good. The bbq chicken was burnt, one piece still had blood in it, and no flavor. The macaroni and cheese was blandest of them all. Don't get my wrong I've messed up Mac and cheese before but never like this. I really don't understand what went wrong. It tasted like they just cooked the noodles without Seasoning it, added a sprinkle of shredded cheese, then put some cheese on top without letting it melt all the way. and on top of it all the food was cold, only the beans were warm. I really hate to say this. Im just happy I didn't have to pay for it. read more

Krystal's Kitchen - a dirty plate of food - Food Trucks Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

If I could rate lower I would. Mac and cheese was literally soggy nasty plain noodles with cheese melted throughout. NO SEASONING. Wtf. Also the container I was served looked like they used it previously. So gross. The only thing good was the meat, but the BBQ sauce again had no flavor. So disappointed I paid $8 for a tiny portion of food. I suggest going somewhere else who knows how to cook. read more

I went out with my girlfriend to get lunch, Krystals Kitchen was parked at our apartment complex and I thought "well it can't be that bad if they paid for her to be here". I received undercooked (fat didn't render so it didn't reach barbecue temps) not properly barbecued ribs that were tougher than nails with a side of canned green beans, and Heinz baked beans with onions and jalapeños added. Fifteen dollars down the drain. Food truck interior was a filthy mess. You can't make good food in a messy kitchen. My girlfriend got jerk chicken, baked Mac and cheese, and potato salad. The jerk chicken had a terrible aftertaste, the mac and cheese was over cooked and under seasoned mush, and the potato salad was supermarket quality (she said it tasted just like Kroger brand). Her kid was nice and was polite when ringing us up at least. I will never purchase anything else from here. Edit: Food was served reheated from the microwave read more

STRAIGHT TRASH!!!! I heard she had good food, sent my husband today for lunch!! When I say DISAPPOINTED???? I can't begin to tell you how much I am!!!! First of all she was out of some sides she offered at opening, then forgot to give me my green beans we paid for! The BBQ Chicken lacked basic seasoning, was dry and over cooked, tiny dried out pieces, the Mac n Cheese was decent, the baked beans?? BAAABBBBYYYYYYY LET ME TELL YOU!!! They were Campbell's Pork n Beans out of the can!! Not even Bush's Baked Beans!! Then she failed to sauté the green peppers and onions so each bite was crunchy and utterly disgusting! Definitely not a fan! Definitely not recommending! And definitely putting this meal where it belongs..... IN THE TRASH!!! Do better Krystal! read more

Krystal's Kitchen - Unseasoned BBQ Chicken Meal - Food Trucks Near Me - Lansing, Michigan

I was looking forward to a festival I attended and they chose to not show up at all. Therefore I had to drive somewhere to go and find food. Don't book this food truck if you want food.I would give this food truck a zero but that is not an option. read more

Pork was not pulled (it was just chunks). I'm not sure there was actually any Mac in the Mac and cheese. It was the consistency of mashed potatoes. Way overpriced for what you get. Don't recommend! read more

I heard Krystal's Kitchen food truck was supposed to be at the lavender festival in Webberville. I was excited to try them out. I love good food and supporting local businesses. I've heard good things. Unfortunately you cant support local businesses if they don't bother to show up. So, needless to say I was extremely disappointed to find out Krystal was a no show. If they cant be bothered to show up then I suppose I cant be bothered to try it. Hard pass. Try the next food truck down the line. People go to art shows for the art, the air and the food. You left one out Krystal's. Guess I leave you out next time I see you, ...if I do...oh wait...You may not be there. Shrug read more

Krystal's Kitchen is great! The food is delicious and Krystal is great to work with! We had her cater two work events and all of the employees loved the food. The ribs and mac and cheese were favorites! read more

Disappointing, the food looked and tasted old like it had been sitting for days. We wanted to support our local business but when we got our food their were fingerprints on the greasy, oil dripping box, and when we opened the box, it was old, and the meat was very dry. Definitely microwaved. We also ordered a sweet potato pie, and a banana cream pie, it was thrown into the to go box, and very small for the price. Overall would not recommend, I know it's during a bad time but expectations shouldn't be lowered. read more

Food was not great. Macaroni was bland and had a sour taste, potato salad was decent with a lot of sauce and dill, baked beans were straight from a can, ribs had a black slime rub on it (charcoal flavoring?), doused in sauce. Jerk chicken was blackened, no sauce, and no seasoning. No thanks; overly hyped in the area. We tossed our two meals in the trash after a few bites. I wanted to love this... but the quality wasn't there read more

Was there about 4:30 today. For $15 had 4 bone section of ribs, 2 sides and a 12oz pop. The ribs were GREAT! Dry rubbed then smoked...nice outer layer oc "char" that was just shy of crusty. Yes...Krystal took them out of storage where they'd been foil wrapped; cracked them, added a bit of mop sauce and reheated them in a microwave.....the insides were smoked red and still juicy..the mac&cheese side was large, creamy/gooey with cheese and perfect comfort food. The green beans had been simmered with slivered onion and tangy (?touch vinegar) juice and simply wonderful. Treat yourself on your next trip to Menards! I really like good BBQ and this was GOOD BBQ. Don't forget the tip jar cause I'm sure Menards charges $$$ for her to park there. Stay safe / wear your damned mask! Peace / Out. read more

I knew things didn't bode well when the bbq sauce was sweet baby rays and the food was microwaved. Needs some serious work. I couldn't finish the food. read more

We had got something from this food truck had it delivered and it was not good at all I always support businesses but the fish was burnt and spaghetti was very watery I hope they correct it because I'm not sure if I can eat there again sorry read more

Food was amazing, potato salad was the best part, if you haven't tasted how potato salad is supposed to taste then go see her, baked Mac n cheese was out of this world, and the pulled pork sandwich was good. But the best part was the potato salad and how nice she was. A lot of people just want to have the bad opinion, my experience was enjoyable, and I will be back to try the Jerk wings! read more

The food is horrible! Corn bread is dry! So is the chicken, also she microwaved the food! Who runs a food truck like this! I'm liable to calm the health department. I can't believe people would allow her to be at there establishment. read more
