    The brick and mortar location is totally delish. We've been a number of times - fills a real need for the area in terms of fast casual. Cant wait to enjoy our food on the beach in a few months!

    Heard about this truck on Facebook (thank you to Quincy Foodies!) and had to try some when it was nearby. Not only am I always down for tacos unless you wake me from a dead sleep, but I also wanted to support someone who supports the community. Human kindness is what earned this truck the fifth star. During the pandemic, the SSTG said that if someone is out of a job and broke, he will provide their meal free of charge. If that means I am going to pay a little more, so be it. That said, these tacos are not the cheapest option, setting you back $5-7 per taco. At the same time, these things are massive! Biggest tacos I've seen to date! The value is there for sure, notably because they do not skimp on the meat! They loaded these things with meat and toppings. Wear a large napkin, or clothes you're okay if you get a stain on. Alternatively, you could live on the edge, though I only recommend that if you're a master taco eater. I ended up having a Korean Pork Taco, and another one where I asked to be surprised. The proteins were juicy and full of flavor, and the other toppings were fresh and complimented them very well. They were also well balanced despite their size! Toppings wise, I would have liked a little more onion (there is pico), but not for lack of crunch. (I just like onions on my tacos). The service was also incredibly fast. Even though there wasn't a line around the block, the food came out almost unbelievably fast. Awesome to know this is a well-oiled machine should it be the lunch rush and not the after-work crowd. In closing, these are flavorful, large tacos. While they're not the best I've ever eaten, they're still pretty dang great! When coupled with the fact that if you're down on your luck, they'll help you out, that deserves the 5th star.

    Cool logo.

    Great food, helpful staff and good location. Had the tacos a while ago and was impressed. Then had the bowls last week and they were tasty!

    Their items are very overpriced. The steak is poor quality - mostly gristle. Very disappointed after 2 visits.

    If I could give zero or negative I would, based on several weddings and his ditching at least 2 brides I know without notice.

    Clint was a breeze to work with - he came on time, set up independently, and served delicious tacos, ceviche, and guacamole.

    Cousins Maine Lobster is a chain of food trucks with multiple sit down restaurants across the US,…read moreand this particular truck travels around East and Central Massachusetts. We spotted it at a local stop and decided to grab a quick seafood meal without committing to a full sit down restaurant. The menu is centered around lobster in just about every form imaginable, from rolls and bisque to tacos and grilled cheese, making it a convenient option when the truck happens to be nearby. We ordered the lobster roll and clam chowder. The lobster roll was good overall, though it came out a little smaller than expected given the price. The lobster itself leaned more toward claw meat rather than the larger tail pieces some people associate with a traditional New England lobster roll. The flavor was still solid, with fresh tasting lobster throughout, but the roll came with less butter than we anticipated, resulting in a lighter and less rich presentation than we were hoping for. The clam chowder ended up being the stronger of the two items. It was creamy without being overly heavy, with a good balance of clams and potatoes, and worked especially well alongside the lobster roll. Together they made for a satisfying meal that delivered the classic seafood combination most people are looking for from a lobster focused stop. The experience here is ultimately about convenience and consistency. When the truck is nearby, it offers an easy way to grab a lobster roll and chowder without making a trip to the coast. The prices reflect the reality of lobster, but for a quick seafood fix on the go, it gets the job done.

    8/10 Maine lobster roll was good. Good flavor, toasted bun. Decent amount of meat…read more 7/10 The lobster quesadillas, good in flavor! Not too soggy, proper cheese to lobster ratio. Properly selected cheese complimented the flavor of the lobster. 2/10 Shrimp tacos were a joke, the shrimp was minuscule and tasted like they had been fried then sitting for days. I thought I was being pranked. I couldn't believe it. I wanted my money back for them. But didn't even bother. If they fix the shrimp the potential is there, not sure it's shrimp? Never seen or had shrimp like this before.

    Okay, I didn't do any of the planning or ordering from Cuisine Chez Vous, but I attended a swanky…read moreparty that hired them! I was really impressed with the number of hors d'oeuvres on offer, as well as the variety! We noshed on mini hamburgers, chicken on biscuits, baby cubans, some cheesy thing (I thought it was a quiche but my roommate said it was a quesadilla), and some kind of rice ball with dipping sauce. And the desserts! Whoa. Chocolate covered cheesecake on a stick, anyone? How about chocolate mousse cups? Chocolate chip cookies? Yes, please. I'm pretty sure they also brought the bartender, who served up some stiff drinks. These guys were professional, efficient, and made some seriously tasty food. Word.

    Cuisine Chez Vous catered my wedding on 6/5/10 and the experience was just fabulous!…read more Walter, Michelle, Fiona, and gang were all amazing! From our initial meeting to the final event, everything was perfect! The food was amazing and not at all like some of the wedding fare I've had in the past. The food during our tasting was delicious and it was replicated exactly on our big day for about 200 guests. Definitely what a starving bride ordered :) Between the mini burgers Stilton jam, Parmesan crusted artichokes, prosciutto wrapped mozzarella, Carolina BBQ on a cornmeal cracker and ALL of our wonderful entrees (including a Gorgonzola stuffed chicken that was out of this world) I was definitely testing the limits of the strength of my corset! Walter was great to deal with throughout the process and I can't begin to describe how impressed I was at how Michelle and Walter paid attention to every detail I described for the big day. I had spent nearly 16 months preparing every detail and to leave it in someone else's hands for my wedding day was a difficult task. The reception hall, tables, candy bar etc. looked exactly like how I envisioned and I couldn't have been happier. They did an absolutely fantastic job. They also did a great job in dealing with a couple of wedding related hiccups, including our earlier than expected arrival to the wedding reception and the thunderstorms during our outdoor cocktail hour. The transition and how they dealt with everything was smooth and professional. EVERYTHING was taken care of. Fiona did a great job with the cake design and from going off just a few internet pictures of what I desired she hit the spot! The cake flavors were delicious and the design beautiful. In terms of cost, I met with 3 other caterers in the Boston and metro-west area and all were very similar in pricing, rental costs, etc. There wasn't anything that seemed out of line and they were very willing to work with me on the budget and food items were requested. Of course no good caterer is cheap and Chez Vous was a hit to the pocketbook, but it was expected and a very worthwhile expense. All in all just a fabulous experience with great, friendly, professional employees, fantastic food, an eye for detail, and genuine care towards your event. The day couldn't have turned out better
