Mark's Grill Food Truck

I love food trucks. And I love philly cheese steaks!So I finally tried MarksGrille for the first time when they were at the Highland Church in Cordova last week.I was super psyched about trying it, since I've only heard good things. However, I was a little disappointed. While the portion was a GREAT size, lots of meat, bell peppers, onions, mushrooms.... The sandwich was LOADED with salt. I couldn't even eat one half of the sandwich because of how salty it was. I'm guessing it was the seasoning they used... But the same goes for the fries. The fries were so salty that my mouth literally started watering and it was pretty difficult to eat the fries too.I will have to try it again. One more time. Because I believe in second chances!Will be sure to update my review if it's better than last time!

if you read my previous review there was one thing missing, Cheese Whiz! I took to Twitter to right this wrong, and Mark's Grill responded. Cheese Whiz is now on the menu!I've been to Pat's in Philly several times, which is what I consider the real deal, and Mark's is making a solid effort. They ship in the Amoroso rolls from Philly is a big help, bread matters a lot for a sandwich and bread's taste is dependent on the local water. A++ for the effort. The steak is the correct kind and cooked properly. Peppers and/or onions are optional, I complained before that they were a bit al-dente before and the last ones we got were cooked more, so I think they are listening to feedback. Of course, don't forget the Cheese Whiz which to me makes the sandwich. Any hot sandwich can be improved by adding more Cheese Whiz. If man-made cheese-like product is not your thing, provolone is an option.They serve other stuff too, I'm not sure why anyone would care when there are cheese steaks on Amoroso rolls with Cheese Whiz, but to each their own. The hand cut fries are a nice side dish. The gyro sandwich is good, only 4-star good. Haven't tried the hot dog yet.They seem to have regular spots at WKNO in Cordova on Thursdays, and Shelby Farms on Sundays. Otherwise watch twitter to see where they show up next.

This place is great! I stumbled upon their food truck during one HOT and sweaty Saturday afternoon at Saddle Creek / Paws for a Cause. We were actually on our way to eat, but I looked them up on Yelp real quick and Kyle's review was what reeled me in. While I have yet to experience the luxuriousness of the Legit Philly Cheesesteak from Philadelphia (its always sunny) itself; I have had my fair share of philly-transported-to-nyc cheesesteaks. so I dont consider myself a know-nothing about this food item! Mark's Food Truck made the PERFECT philly cheesesteak! They load it up with TONS OF MEAT!!! You're DEFINITELY getting your money's worth here! They have just the right amount of cheese, onions, and green peppers in there. but the real shining star of the sandwich was the Meat and the Bread. YUMMIES!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED YOU GUYS!!!!!!I also got their fries which they said were hand cut themselves. They're thin fries (just how I like them) and So delicious!!!Fountain drinks are unlimited refills as long as the Truck is around that spot; so I would say go for your monies worth and order the fountain drink and not the water or anything else.I have yet to try the other items on the menu, but I may not because I found what I love and it is DELICIOUS!!!!!GO!!!!!

My favorite thing about this spring has been food truck Fridays at the Dixon Galleries. That's where I had my first encounter with Mark's Grill. Everything on the menu looked so appealing, I had a hard time deciding what to order. Everyone else helped me out, because they were running out of things when I got there. I wound up ordering the tacos, with avocado cucumber sauce, slaw, cheese and tomatoes. I really would love to try a gyro next time, but I don't know if I have it in me to choose anything other than the best tacos I've ever had in my life. My friend had the chicken Philly, and she said it was exceptional. If you ever see Mark's Grill parked and serving, do yourself a favor and stop. Order anything, but make sure you have him put the avocado cucumber sauce on it!

So I saw this food truck in downtown Memphis which I saw some really good reviews from other yelpers. When I came up to the window the lady told me they were completely out of Phillys cheese steaks which I was kind shocked and bummed. So I got the steak tacos and chicken pita with their fries which came out to $20 so I was kind of hoping for greatness in my mouth. Which I will say the food is pretty mind blowing good. I really hope they look at maybe lowering the prices. I would be a customer for a very long time.

We tried this truck out this weekend at Tennessee Brewery. Since we were just looking for a snack we just got an order of fries. They were some of the best fries ever,super thin shoe string, hand cut and crunchy I am sold on this truck by just having the fries. I do hope they will be back at the brewery because I would love to try their whole menu. The people running the truck were super friendly and service was very fast. There was a long line but they were turning out orders like a fast food restaurant.If you come across this truck you need to give them a try!

Mark's Grill food truck was a scrumptious reward that awaited me after I took my puppy for a walk at the ginormous Shelby Farms park.The "Real Deal" Philly Cheesesteak was DELICIOUS! Not a 'real deal' in the sense of Pat's famous Philly Cheesesteaks with Cheez Whiz, but a 'real deal' in every mouth watering provolone laden, rib-eye steak bite! Happy to find a GREAT place to have Philly cheesesteak outside of Philadelphia!

I tried Mark's Grill for the first time at a Sunday Food Truck Rodeo at Shelby Farms. The gyros there rivals any that you get at a Mediterranean sit-down restaurant so I highly recommend it. The first thing I look for in a classic gyro is how juicy and tender the meat is--and Mark's Grill definitely has that.

We chose Mark's out of all the food trucks at Shelby Farms yesterday & it was a great choice! My husband had the Philly cheesesteak. It was huge & delicious. I had the gyro. It was very tender & had great flavor. The fries were salty & soggy, but everything else was a win! The lady that took our order was very pleasant & the price was reasonable ($18).

Okay, I have some serious OCD tendencies but I was feeling pretty good about the food trucks on Ridge Lake until today. I have seen some fabulous food handling from the trucks I purchased from previously. Then today, I witnessed a chick in Mark's Grill Food Truck taking money and credit cards, scratching her nose, touching her hair, and opening/closing the truck window with gloves on. I had already placed my order and was immediately suspect when she took my money - with gloves on. So I just watched to see if she would change gloves. I saw her change them a couple of times......then immediately proceed to touch her face, nose, and hair, then fix sandwiches.I asked for my money back. She asked the guy if he'd started making my sandwich yet (as if it mattered?!?!?), he said no, and she gave me my money back. Then once money was in hand, I told her about the issues that I had just witnessed regarding her poor food handling techniques. She insisted that she is constantly changing gloves. Yes, I did see her change them, but then just do more dirty stuff. Ugh!!And yes, I'm quite aware that we never have any idea what's going on behind closed doors of other places, but it's VERY disconcerting to actually see this crap right in your face and then proceed to put the food into your mouth. Personally, I just can't...
