"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. Ferrell's Donuts are BY FAR my favorite donuts in Santa Cruz County - period. And I just moved here and happen to live down the street! The GLAZED DONUT are LIFE!!! And if you like glazed filled donuts - their 1/2 Dozen Filled Holes
are basically glazed filled donuts - they are HUGE. My favorite are the CUSTARD and RASBERRY. So that's your starting point.
CUSTOMER SERVICE - every box, every time, they send a note to me - and maybe even an extra something dependingon the time of day ;) I won't share too much 'cuz that's my thing - thank you @Ferrell'sDonuts!!!!! You bring me joy! Let me go put my order in ;) Heart, Jess"
"Unfortunately, barely recognizable as a croissant. The Plain Croissant, as well as the Chocolate Croissant both tasted like a bland bread rolled up to look like a Croissant. The chocolate Chocolate Croissant had hard chunks of chocolate inside, not very appetizing. All of the donuts were just ok... the only thing I really liked was the Filled Donut Hole... but it was $1.99 for the size of 2 small donut holes."

"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)"
"The quality of burgers has gotten so drastically bad over the last few years that I could find a frozen burger for $2 that you microwave and it's better than something like the Classic Smashed Jack™ which is over $8. Even just in the last couple months it's gotten much worse and I don't know why - I just know it's not edible anymore. i give up trying. The only good thing left are things like the mini churros and the 3pc Classic French Toast Sticks ... those are sweets. this was my favorite place to get fast food for decades. idk anymore."

"Ordered the Gouda Burger and added bacon. As soon as I opened it I was not impressed. The fries are basic, frozen fries. The burger had no condiments or lettuce on it. Sautéed mushrooms apparently means 3 mushroom slices, and the bacon I paid $5 to add definitely had been sitting around for a few hours and was pretty oily, tough, and sparse.

"Food was excellent! The fries were overflowing in our bag and the banana milkshake tasted fresh and delicious. "
"I think my food was the stuff that was left over from the previous day. I've had Chili Cheese Dog many times before but this one was very odd and chewy like leather. The fries were stale and had too much salt I guess they were trying to hide that the fries were from yesterday also. "

"The level of spice for what I ordered was mild. But it states that clearly on the menu and it was exactly what I wanted. For a food truck, with limited space and options I think it's smart to have a spicy dish and a mild dish. If they were working with a full kitchen, it would be great to have the option to adjust spice- but given what it is - a truly inexpensive, incredibly fast option to enjoy beautifully cooked Indian dishes, it's perfect. I was a little hesitant about but ended up LOVING the chicken wrap with naan and rice - brilliant. Delicious - perfectly balanced (not too soggy not too dry).
Price? Phenomenal.
Quality? Top tier.
Speed? Shockingly fast.
Variety? Understandably limited.
Flavor? Wonderful - sometimes mild can be bland - this was flavorful.
My only wish is there was an option to order raita (like in a 2oz sauce cup). That would be absolute perfection to drizzle on the wrap as you are taking bites.
I'm beyond thrilled to have an inexpensive option for Indian dishes. Sadly the brick and mortar restaurant nearest me is expensive, their portions small, and they always gets my order wrong, Their food always leaves me feeling bloated and gross. This was so good I enjoyed it just as much cold as I did fresh and hot.
Thank you so much!
"
"This food was super yummy! The naan was fluffy and garlicky, the drink was good as well. The pricing is AMAZING. Would definitely get again!"

"The Bulgogi & Crystal Noodle Stew was delicious!! It was homey with a rich broth. You'll definitely get your moneys worth because it came with so much meat in it that I gave the rest to my husband to eat over the rice that came with. The steamed Gyoza was pretty good but, nothing to marvel at. "
"Absolutely phenomenal. The Bulgogi & Crystal Noodle Stew was so so good. I want to eat it everyday. The sides of kimchi were so fresh and tasty. 100 out of 10. Will absolutely order again.

"Both my sammies were actually filled with tastes and nice and full! Someone's making sammys with love tonight. "
"We ordered 3 sandwiches tonight and we were very disappointed with the results of how they were made. First of all we ordered two meatball sandwiches to be toasted. They had 4 tiny meatballs on each sandwich, the meatballs were slightly hard , lacking any taste and drowning in a runny marinara sauce, and placed in a soggy bread that I ended up chocking on. ! I'm not sure if the condition we received them was due in the time of night that we ordered the or if it was because they were BOGO free but I don't remember getting any that were this bad. I don't know what the 3 rd sandwich is like as it was supposed to be an extra one To make things worse we didn't get the chips we ordered and paid for! DoorDash made good on it with a credit. "

The only thing I would add is get extra dressing. The shallot vinaigrette is incredible they just need to add more. The Chicken Fusilli is also really good!"
"Very good portion size for 2. Excellent ratio of pasta and chicken. Same recipe as we used to get pre-pandemic. We wish some cheese packets would have been included today. Also wish that you could a choice of oils was offered (perhaps plain olive oil in addition to garlic infused.)Great value for the money."

"Sundae kit at Mission Hill is a joke. $29 for a small pint of icecream and one spoonful of hot fudge. Do yourself a favor and get the sundae kit from penny ice because it actually is a Sundae kit. With a bottle of whipped cream and multiple toppings for the same price as Mission Hill for one small pint and a spoonful of hot fudge. This item is misleading and false. So disappointing."

I ate the nachos first and I thought these are amazing but then I decided to have a bite of the burrito even though I was going to save it for later and that was even better! although The burrito was kind of skinny and had a ridiculous amount of foil wrapped tightly on it that was actually kind of hard to take off LoL but It had amazing flavor better than any burrito I have in Santa Cruz and also the hot sauce they gave me was very spicy and different. loved it.
very impressed 👍🏼🧡
