Four of us went two years ago and none would ever go again.

First, it’s five dollars to get in. Okay… I guess, but it seems to me that the food trucks themselves should be paying the rent to the Fairgrounds, not the customers who are there supporting the effort.

Was the food good? No. It was okay, but for all these “specialty” trucks nothing we had was particularly creative or well done.

Was it affordably priced though? No, not at all!! Prices were ridiculous. We tried a number of different offerings from a variety of the vendors. Between entry price and food, probably spent $170+ for a bunch of blasé carnival food served with dirty cans of soda and the cheapest plastic cutlery, napkins, condiments, and paper plates you’ve ever seen.

It’s one of those things that’s a great idea, and if the vendors really tried to deliver quality and value and didn’t treat customers like they were a favor by taking our money and giving barely passable food, it would be great.

But instead it sucked. And if after this review you decide to go anyway, at least you’ve been warned.
