    Came here with my family that was visiting and we overall had a pleasant experience. Food was enjoyable and filling. Wish they would say what is on the salad like they do for their other dishes but it's not too much of a deal just if you can't have cheese make sure to mention it if getting a salad. I also didn't like the paper covers they had on the platters, if you don't eat fast enough they get soggy and can rip and you might eat some of the paper. But overall it was good and the prices are reasonable and actually better than a lot of places. I'd come again to try something else.

    This place is a classic staple of Rigby. The orders are always accurate and the food has been fresh for me. They have some of the best fries I have ever had. The staff tends to have RBFs and are not as friendly as one would hope. They have great deals through the week that make this place worth going to. Overall, this is always a must stop for my family and I when I am in town.

    Great pitstop for some food. Got the Shrimp Bambino, Chicken and Ranch Bambino, and some fries. Fries were super crispy and fresh. I preferred the Shrimp Bambino over the Chicken and Ranch just because of texture but both were good tasting and filled me up. Will definitely stop there again to try a different flavor!

    This review is based on tasting their food from their food truck at a wedding they catered. I got the classic, pepperoni, and cheese and they were all good. The dough was soft and fresh and all the ingredients blended well together. Their customer service was also great. They arrived on time, and were ready to deliver food. I haven't visited their store yet, but based on the food and service I experienced, I'd sure love to visit their store too.

    We have never had a bad experience here. Staff have always been friendly, fresh made food that tastes top tier. My husband loves the fries, but I love that there is a no up-charge option for a fresh side salad instead, with multiple dressing options. They’re always our first go to in town!
