Went down today to try their Jalapeño Popper Burger and absolutely loved it! It had the perfect spicy kick and tasted just like a jalapeño popper, with all the flavor you’d want in a great burger. Can’t wait to come back and try more from the menu!

Super chill spot! The guy running it was really friendly and made us an absolutely delicious burger – juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. Loved that they give you a little pager while you wait, makes the whole process way more relaxed. Great vibes, great food. Would totally come back!

We stopped here on our way through to get lunch, and man, was I glad we did! We got the chicken sandwich and fries, and it was exceptional. Crispy fried delicious chicken served on a soft, warm bun with fresh lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, and mayo. The fries were thin and crispy, and the fry sauce was really good. The food was hot and everything tasted very fresh.

It’s actually quite hard to find a place that can make a good grill cheese sandwich. Add in the challenge of making it more than just cheese and bread, and it’s darn near impossible. Yet the Big Cheese has stepped up to that challenge and is doing exceptionally well with it.

Really enjoyed my bacon sandwich and the burgers just looked so good. My family seemed to really like the food and the environment. Very friendly and service was exceptionally quick. I'll be back for sure.

The best burger I've had in awhile! Yummy 😋 The place is in a food truck courtyard with a few other trucks. Smelled like a carnival or fair food court! 5 stars for sure! 💛

Went there for a grilled cheese and saw the bad review on a burger and had to try one. Burger was awesome. Beef had a mild flavor and was very juicy. Super cheesy but that's what I expect coming for the big cheese lol. Good bun, nothing too exciting but helped me get all that meat and cheese in my mouth.

I love the food trucks but when the big cheese first opened I was interested but hesitant, today was the first time I tried it. Split a buffalo chicken and a pizza melt with my partner both of us got animal style fries (upgrade was only 2.50) and some jalapeño poppers. When I tell you EVERYTHING was delicious I'm not kidding. I can't pick what was best. If you like in and out animal style fries this is the spot. The sandwiches are a good size and wonderful And the poppers are cream cheese poppers and big. Highly recommend it!

Absolutely the BEST grilled cheese sandwich I've ever had! I've ordered the regular or full sized and the Little Cheese Sammy. For me the regular sized menu item was big enough for my fiance and I to share. The Cheese was amazing, the bread was perfectly grilled. Nothing was "greasy" or "limp" like everywhere place I've gotten grilled cheese. Alone I order the "Little cheese" and it's perfect amount for me. (Im 5'2" 125 lbs) It does come with French fries and a great amount. I am always 💯 satisfied. Next time I'm going to try the tomato soup with it. Definitely an asset to the food truck community! Try BIG CHEESE! You will be GLAD you did!

I loved the food truck and the items they served. Location was as expected outdoor dining between food trucks, not bad but not what you want for a dinner out on the town. All of the food was delicious and the service had my food to me quickly and efficiently. Great people working behind the counter. 5/5 would recommend.

We ordered a 2 double cheeseburgers, a western burger and a pizza grilled cheese. They were all just okay and not as big as expected for the price. Buns were good though. Fries were definitely not steak fries, but were fine. No sauce on the pizza grilled cheese and not enough BBQ on the western. Total was $62. We are sticking with Yeong's.

Really nice women working there. The food is just bad though. "Steak fries" are just thin, cheap frozen store fries. The big chees burger was just too much cheese. The meat itself was not flavorful and bland with soggy buns. Grilled cheese is good.

Ordered chicken tenders and fries, jalapeno poppers and their honey spicy chicken sandwich. It was like eating at an elementary school cafeteria all over again, but I paid an arm and a leg for it. The tenders and chicken sandwich were frozen and processed meat. The fries were cooked wrong and tasted like grease. Poppers way over cooked. Paid for the fry sauce as well and they came in the smallest container. Do not recommend.

Still using all of our photos & Still never got paid for them. Nothing is untrue about what I said. We were told we would be paid for the photos that we took and that never happened. Then we asked for you to not use them since you never paid for them, but still see them being posted. Feel free to call me so we can clear this up.
