"Great food, excellent customer service, fun place to eat--all in one place?! Yep. This is it! I really wish we had this in East Orange. The trucks were great. A group of six adults and we tried something from every truck. No wait. Lots of space. Good, live music. The open tab concept is unique but we had no issues using it. It was really clean and well maintained. There is covered seating as well as open air seating of all kinds. Games to play. We were all adults but there were at least 3 other families there with small children. Really enjoyed it and highly recommend!"

"Y’all need to come here!! It was an incredible night I enjoyed everything about my experience. I came to meet some friends and was immediately greeted at the front and was given a run down on the whole process. Their concept is so unique and convenient. Not to mention everything we tried was delicious!! The service was probably the star of the show, Kat and Chris were incredible and always made sure we were good, they even brought out bug spray when it got dark! We will definitely be back and I’ll recommend this to everyone."

"Newly opened and still a few bugs on paying on my phone, but my husband had no issues. Loved the atmosphere with so many seating options. Ordering food was easy. I ordered from Smash and it was so good! Crispy fries and great tasting burger. My hubby had ordering issues with the Cuban food, but once he got it he said it was really good. We both said we would definitely come back! Great concept and host staff was super helpful. Looks like this would be great place to hang out with friends around firepit or even the hammocks look relaxing."

"Such a great concept. Lots of open space to relax and chill with family and friends. We ordered half a pepperoni pizza, spicy tuna roll, Cuban sandwich, west orange cake and banana Fosters cheesecake. Everything was delicious and fresh. Be careful with pouring your own beer. Once you stop the tap, you have 2 seconds before getting charged. Beer foam or not, you get charged the same amount for how much and what comes out the tap."

"Great outdoor dining experience—this was our first time there. When you enter the premises, you open a tab with your credit card and register using your mobile phone number. You’ll receive a link on your phone with a QR code, which you can use to order food. There are five food trucks, and their menus and prices are available on the website. You simply select the vendor, place your order, and pay—it’s easy and fast. Loved this place and would not hesitate to go there again."

"We had such an incredible time enjoying the experience and chill relaxed environment, definitely like camping out or hanging out in a friend's backyard. There are lots of games to play and interact with, from board games, giant tic-tac-toes, ping pong, badmitten, sandbag game, a fire pit, lots of warning heaters, shaded area, lots of seating areas for groups. There are 4 different food trucks and a selection of bear and other beverages to choose from. Our kiddo we had with us had a blast, and so did we. We will definitely be back."

"We just finished our first cornhole league here and we have so many great things to say! 1- they truly want to support the community. They hosted us and we learned of all the other small businesses they give space to as well. 2- the food from ALL of the food trucks is amazing. The wine and beer wall is also so fun and has great options. 3- the staff is AMAZING! Every night they make sure we are good and have connected with our players. We have a blast every week. Thank you to the owners as they have created this amazing space for the community."
