    three pizzas on a table

    Tru Pizza Truck partnered with me in hosting a charity event for Cancer Legal Care and they were fantastic. Jason & his crew were on time, professional and accommodating. The pizza tasted just like the pizza I ate in Naples Italy years before and they donated all of the profits to the cause. Highly Recommended!

    We had Tru cater our wedding and it was exactly what we wanted! Friendly staff serving our favorite pizza out of their beautiful truck. Our guests continue to give rave reviews and we definitely recommend Jason and Tru Pizza for any catering you might need!

    Really good pizza. We had TRU and another food truck cater our wedding and everything went smoothly. Would recommend giving their pizza a try.

    "Light" + crushed tomatoes = prosciutto, mozzarella, basil, parm, sea salt (they forgot the arugula)

    Happy Pi Day (pizza pie counts)! Tru Pizza Truck was at Bauhaus on a Saturday night. I had already eaten dinner, but I went in knowing that this would be my 4th meal. So I'll get right to the point - this pizza was probably the best I've had in the Twin Cities. I ordered the "Light" (Prosciutto, Arugula, Balsamic, Parmigiano-Reggiano, Olive oil base, Sea Salt, Burrata Mozzarella) with added crushed tomatoes. The crust was thin, yet held up to the toppings, and had absolute perfect bubbles. It was skillfully wood-fired creating heavenly char on the crust. All of the toppings were of high quality and was just the right amount of herby, salty, tangy, and creamy altogether. Sadly, service was a little rough that night. There was only 1 person in front of me when I ordered, and I was told it would take 15mins. But after checking a couple times and over 30mins later, I got my pizza. At that point, they had run out of arugula, which was a bummer too. But luckily the pizza itself was so worth it. It is a little pricey too, at $14, which I guess help me restrain myself from buying 5 in one sitting.

    Neapolitan pizza on a food truck!? Unique, delicious, and local toppings? The friendliest staff around? Check check check! I am a pizza aficionado, a connoisseur. I have tried every pizza place I've ever heard mentioned in Minnesota. Traveled to Italy and Chicago basically to eat pizza. I've spent years trying to perfect my own Neapolitan pizza at home. Tru Pizza is legit wood fired, slow fermented, whole milk mozz, and finely grained flour Neapolitan pizza. Great pizza is a deceivingly complex process that requires detail and skills that I'm surprised they can even pull off in a truck. Everything from the water being used to the yeast fermentation methods can completely change the structure, rise, and spring in a slice of pie. Guess what - Tru Pizza is SO CLOSE! I believe with a bit more experience under their belt they could truly excel in such a way that I will be day dreaming of return visits. Before my visit I checked out the Tru Pizza website, and the main photo of a simple Neapolitan pizza almost brought tears to my eyes. The cornicione(corn-ei-choll-ay/outer crust) was so perfectly charred in all of the right spots. The base was that beautiful thin San Marzano layer of sweet tomatoes that pizza should never be without. The mozzarella was thoughtfully placed around the pie so each slice gets a nice helping of whole milk. The photo on their website is nearly perfection in every sense of the word. Unfortunately, I did not receive the same edible art-piece when the truck stopped at my office. You can see the pictures I posted, but the consistency in the shape, size, topping arrangement, leopard-spotting, and cornicione were lacking to say the least. It's not an easy thing to achieve, I know as I struggle with it myself when making pizzas at home. But to me, the spread of the toppings was too little when compared to the amount of exposed dough that eventually formed the crust. I do not prefer a pile of toppings in the middle, and a huge slide of bready crust to accompany a single bite of toppings. The great news is that their is still hope. The tools, ingredients, and awesome owner Jason are all keys to success, and I'm positive that with a bit more time and training this p'truck will pump out insane slices in uniform fashion. This isn't your local American pie shop thank God for that. This is a BREAD shop disguised under the veil of gooey cheese and high quality meats. Overall, I'm beyond pumped that this truck even exists in the TC. Top quality ingredients at a steal of a price with a product that even obsessive pizzaiolos like me am impressed by! Go track down this truck and thank me later!

    Excellent crust! If in Minneapolis give them a try!

    Tru Pizza does it right! When visiting MSP this past summer I made it a "must" on things to do. As a food truck operator in NY that specializes in wood fired pizza, I enjoy trying others that share the same passion for their products. Give them a try you will not be disappointed! After you do try them, be sure to give them a review.

    A wood-fired pizza oven in wheels. Fabulous! @yelpmsp

    Wood-fired pizza on a food truck? Bravo! Packed tightly in a truck with their large oven, I'm impressed with efficiency and enthusiasm the Tru Pizza staff have for slinging fresh Neopolitan-style (with oregano) wood-fired pizza. Tru delivers a healthy portion of pizza. It's light, herby and fresh. It compares well with Punch Pizza and do well against in blind taste tests or side-by-side battles. A warning to pizza lovers unfamiliar with wood-fired results: Your thin focaccia-style crust will be limp in the middle and the outer edges may be burned, but the flavor profile is fresh, herby, and lighter than traditional, cheese-piled alternatives. The biggest difference between Punch Pizza and Tru Pizza Truck offerings is the price, at $12, a Margherita pizza served from the food truck is nearly twice the price as Punch... however, it's probably twice the effort for the team working in the food truck. Pizza's are plated within 5 minutes of when you place your order, but it can take SOME TIME getting to the front of the line. Why? Tru Pizza is always popular, so when food trucks are lined up 12 deep, you're likely to wait in line.

    Number 5!
    Megan S.

    O. M. G. I might become their next cult follower. This pizza was amazing and the best food truck experience I have yet to date. I had the number 5 which was amazing. Garlic, olive oil, chicken fennel sauasage, cheese, and fresh basil. The ingredients were fresh and high quality. The dough was the best dough ever. I mean it, EVER! So light and airy; cooked to perfection. Not to mention the two men working were phenomenal. They offered us a sample of a calzone and even gave us a truffle!

    Margherita wets. So good

    So my husband and I have been trying to track this pizza truck down for quite some time. We finally tasted the deliciousness! It all started with a coworker that had liked them on facebook and it came up on my news feed one day. I immediately was like "whaaaaast!? A pizza food truck? Organic and local? Where can I find this!" So a couple times we missed them downtown but saw they were at Harriet Brewing this past weekend and had to go. It was the perfect setting to have a pizza and pair it with an awesome IPA. We both got the Margherita wets (extra cheese) and it was soooo good. Thin but chewy crust. Not overly sauced or sloppy. Just awesome. We can't wait to try some of the more exotic things on the menu Even as we were leaving we got to sample a new squash pizza the chef was conjuring up. So much flavor. Loved it. Can't wait to go back (even if it's not on my diet plan, it's worth it!)

She then made her rounds around the restaurant, the two hours I was there. I found the presentation completely inappropriate for a restaurant. It felt more like something you would see at a strip club or Vegas nightlife venue than at a restaurant, and it was especially jarring at a 5 PM event. Honestly, I would have found it inappropriate regardless of the time. I'm Latina and all for a good, sexy time. But there is a time and place for everything. Beyond that, the restaurant was extremely crowded and hot, and they were already running out of food. Given the number of people there, the food situation was poorly handled. I also had an issue with my drink charge. It was listed as $9, but I was charged over $11, while my friend was charged only $10 for hers. That inconsistency was frustrating. Unfortunately, between the uncomfortable atmosphere, extreme crowding, heat, lack of food, and billing discrepancy, this was a very disappointing experience. I've since seen other reviews mentioning long waits, and after experiencing the chaos myself, I can understand why.

The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and authentically neighborhood-focused. Whether you're stopping in after a bike ride, meeting friends for brunch, or grabbing a late-night bite, it feels like home. The service team is outstanding. Hannah went above and beyond, crafting two custom coffee martinis that were every bit as good as anything you'd find at a dedicated cocktail bar. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely happy to see you that's the standard here. The brunch is excellent, especially on the patio when Minnesota weather cooperates. Located right along the bike path, it's the perfect destination for food, drinks, and people-watching. The menu has something for everyone, from creative specialty pizzas and breakfast pizzas to vegan options, plus favorites like bruschetta and lasagna. Reasonable prices, generous hours, consistently great food, and a staff that treats you like family. In a world of chains and cookie-cutter restaurants, Pizza Lucé Hopkins remains a true neighborhood gem. Sometimes you want more than a meal, you want a place where everybody knows your name. This is that place. #cheers!

When my friend and I walked in, we came into a fairly spacious dimly lit space with loads of people inside. We were immediately informed that there would be over 1.5hr wait for a walk-in table. We were given the option to wait for bar seating as it would probably be quicker - and surely, it was. We did have to wait quite a bit, but it was a tolerable amount of time and definitely less than what it would have taken for an actual table. My friend and I decided to share 2 pizza pies as we wanted to get a taste of two different flavors, so we eventually settled on Korean BBQ & Perfect Pickle Pie. KOREAN BBQ As it was created by a Korean chef, it definitely had true authentic Korean flavors. As a Korean myself, I was very familiar with this soy vinaigrette and have tried this on many salad before - so, it was hitting home for me. Also, you can't go wrong with the bulgogi/beef short ribs known to all those who had Korean BBQ before. The combination of the sauces that they use for this pizza is definitely very rich, full of umami. I personally enjoyed it. PERFECT PICKLE PIE This pie was a totally different flavor to the Korean BBQ. It's less rich and maybe can be overpowered or considered more bland compared to other pizza flavors. But when tried together with the BBQ, it balances out the richness of the BBQ with the more subtle/less umami flavors. This pie gives more of a tangy/sour taste that pickles provide and more of a crunch due to the chips that are added on top. The dill is present, but not overpowering. It's a nice low-key kind of taste that people who like pickles will enjoy. Overall, the flavors were very rich in every pizza pie that we had that our mouths were bursting with flavor. It was definitely the most unique pizza toppings that I've had and can see why it's so highly regarded. I can tell that they really are meticulous with their every process and that their pizza guy by the wood fire oven is expertise in what he does. My friend and I walked out quite satisfied and I was honestly more full than I expected.

There were gnats, yes, but it wasn't bad. But it did strike me that we were warned, but then no mention was made about what to do if the plague descended. Not a good start to the evening. We waited maybe 15 minutes until water arrived, at which point the server said he'd be back to take drink orders. Another 15 minutes later we ordered drinks. We saw them 20 minutes later and ordered then. First round of food arrived 20 minutes after that (arancini, quite good -- the highlight of the meal). But then it was a 40 minute wait until the second round of food came. By this point we were starving. There is simply no reason to have to wait that long for small plates. The same overly familiar server thanked us for our patience, said that he checked on the order assuming it got lost but then was informed that no, it's just slow. I said that, yes, we had been waiting long and that we were getting quite hungry. He assured us our mains would not be that long and then added "Yes, this has been the shift from hell." The mains did arrive more promptly, and they were... fine. The pasta was overcooked by a fair degree, and sauces were of a quality that any decent amateur home cook could make themselves. The pizza had an excellent crust. But when you're paying this much for a meal, you want more than a good pizza pie. Server arrived later saying that to apologize for the wait, desserts would be comped, but then... we waited so long to put in a dessert order we just asked for our check. So: incredibly slow. Service that was overly familiar to the point of reminding us that we were having a terrible time. And then no adequate compensation was made for the fact that we were having an awful time ON MY HUSBAND'S BIRTHDAY, which I had noted when I made the reservation. So, diners beware.
