Bonus: The owners of this food truck also weighed in, sharing, “@thebistrofoodtruck has the best beef birria tacos! @fudforvybez had the best oxtails with curry cabbage! @brokenheartcheesecakes has the best cheesecakes! Too many awesome food trucks out there!”

Freaky Funnels
Whether you’re feeling sweet or savory, this food truck has you covered with spiral potatoes, hand-dipped corn dogs, countless funnel cake flavors, and deep-fried Oreos.

Dumb Cluck
This food truck at Shady’s Corner is open late, offering fried chicken, burgers, loaded fries, and brunch on Saturdays + Sundays. You have to try the chicken and waffles.

Yummy Thai
@saveluna said this Thai food truck is delicious and gives huge portions — sounds like a win-win.
