"I absolutely loved the cobbler and 2 lbs of brisket fed 4 people and all of them were so full and if you order the heat at home Berry Cobbler they will fully freeze the ice cream so it stays frozen the whole way! The brisket was comparable to heaven and it was so tender and fatty but the non fat part was very lean but atill very flavorful, the flavor is balanced throughout the entire slice, the mac and cheese was so creamy and stayed warm through the whole car ride the coleslaw was a perfect balance of flavor and crunch. 11/10 stars would recommend"
"Wish I could give a better review. We normally love Mission St BBQ but tonight was a miss. The brisket was cut super thick with a ton of fat, and a very small portion compared to what you would get in person. Definitely not worth $23. The kid's meal was horribly burnt and I had to cut around a ton of char just to get to edible meat for them. The restaurant also gave us a potato salad side instead of mac and cheese, which was very clearly on the receipt. Please do better with to-go meals!"

" I got the brisket meal to go… It was delicious and everything was packed perfectly so I could enjoy it… I got the mac & cheese and coleslaw. The brisket was on point!"
"I had not ordered the brisket sandwich in months. The previous times it was great. This was horrible. First off, the size was tiny ... about 4" x 2.75". Then, I opened the sandwich and saw all the fat, which I trimed off (shown in photo), leaving little brisket.
The taste is bad too. Definitely not the same as it used to be. $18? Ridiculous!"

"The chicken tenders and fries were tasty and the order size was appropriate for the price, however, the double mocha was not as mesmerizing, I thought I would get a 20ounce mocha but received maybe a 10ounce. Not a good price for what I paid 8.00"
"Pretty sure they use AI images for their menu photos because the food looks nothing like this, not even the same ingredients. I got the Rockfish Burrito and it was huge (yay!) but it was almost entirely beans and rice. The fish was barely noticable, not big chunks like the photo but small flakey pieces and it was very dry and chewy. I ate about 1/4 of the burrito thinking they had sent me just a bean and cheese because I didn't taste any fish or pineapple. There was almost no flavor to the burrito at all and the tortilla fell apart. The Onion Rings were also huge in potion but it was all one giant greasy onion blob. Not really rings at all and a little burnt. Again, nothing like the photo, not even the same kind of batter. Really disappointing and expensive for the low quality food I received."

"This Jbox is far superior than the one in Santa Cruz. Always fresh. Rat meat tacos are the best!😎👊"
"I really need to stop trying the food here over & over, hoping it will go back to even a tiny fraction of edible & even good again. The insane prices for any burger here alone is hard to justify for fast food, but when the meat is severely rubbery, burnt to hell, somehow devoid of flavor, my bun was awful, stale, rock hard - there is no way it's brioche. imo misrepresentation of their products it's a joke. We can find better food at real restaurants, costing half the price, tasting better in every way, & the quality between the two is so drastic. (even frozen ones!)
curly fries still the best + these Pumpkin Spice Mini Churros are ridiculously delicious. Interesting the juxtaposition between those & the burger 🤷🏻♂️
if they weren't one of the only options here after 10pm, I wouldn't have bothered. Would not order again in the future.
somehow got 3 bags of the churros. swear I only ordered 2, so if I got 1 free somehow, that's cool at least ig (but the burger price ruins it)"

"Hmm I have heard people rave about their sandwiches here for decades. Idk. The tri-tip was warm and it was just ok. Trying the turkey for dinner and it has an odd taste. Not much avocado. The turkey has an odd flavor. I believe it is supposed to have the carrots which I was looking forward to and they are not here. Then, this was the worst apple fritter I ever had. Dry, not much flavor and few apples. I rarely eat donuts but when I do it's this type which are usually very sweet and rich. This really didn't taste like much and did not feel fresh.

"I love donuts. I'm also from the Bronx. Those two things may not mean much to anyone in the Santa Cruz area, but if it happens to help someone - dope.

are basically glazed filled donuts - they are HUGE. My favorite are the CUSTARD and RASBERRY. So that's your starting point.

"Sausage, Egg, Cheese & Jalapeño Ham, Cheese & Jalapeño, the stuffed croissants left a little to be desired (don't get me wrong, the croissant part was buttery and delicious) the filling was just so-so.

Very prompt delivery and they even left a sweet note on the box! love love love Ferrell's 9/10 would recommend!! My daughter and I order at least once every time we come to Santa Cruz 🥰"

"I must tell you that Lillians fish of the day is-off the charts great
usually Hallibut and done so perfectly on a bed of risotto with slices of avocado and zuiccini. I was looking for that top restaurant fish and I found it here / grateful and thank you"
"Small portions, both pastas were lacking sauce, the meat ball were okay. I love eating at the restaurant I think its the best Italian in town, but I'm sorry to say the take out was disappointing for the portions and the price."

"WOW!!! That was the best, THE BEST, Shrimp and Crab Louie EVER! Everything was fresh and there was an abundance of shrimp and crab, not just a few of them sprinkled on top. The bread rolls were heated and even the butter was placed in a separate container so they didn't melt or get smashed.
Thank You Gilda's and a big hug to the Chef and Preppers. "
"This was a DoorDash order.
I ordered my filet mignon med rare; it was well done. The coleslaw was hot. The spaghetti and meatballs tasted like Sysco quality; no way was it homemade. Although they didn't clam it to be homemade, it was pricy for "freezer food."
Crab cakes were sub par at best.
The vegetables were good and cooked perfectly. The fruit bowl was hot...probably similar to the hot Cole slaw being bagged with hot food.
Cold vs. hot should be bagged accordingly. We also only received one set of utensils for $140 worth of food, including two entry's. Seems common sense to pack fo at least two people eating.
Disappointing on several levels. From quality, cooking and packing the to-go."
