Just had my first experience with Black Market today, I found many things appealing about this food truck. The menu had some great picks, but I had to try their burger to start, super glad I did! The bun was fresh and fluffy, the sauce used on the burger was to die for, onion rings crisped to perfection and the bacon must have been sourced locally because it was phenomenal. The location was perfect to me, easy to find, off a main drag so it wasn't busy for parking or people and very simple to locate. The staff were super friendly and seemed genuinely curious how the food was to us, which was great. Overall I'm super impressed with this food truck, I feel the menu could be expanded a touch but considering ability to store fresh ingredients in a small food truck, I'll take a slightly smaller menu to the quality of their food any day!

Amazing service. Korean fried chicken and chicken brie sandwiches are tender, moist, and well-seasoned. Best to call ahead with your order. 100% bussin!

1st visit. Wife said “Best Burger” ever. Will now use Black Market Burger as her measuring stick for any to follow. I had the Shrimp & Smoked Salmon Linguine which I rate very highly. I now have been scolding myself for taking so long to find this hidden gem of a food truck. Definitely worth a visit if you are looking for a great meal.

Hands down the best food truck experience you’ll ever have. Everything here is amazing, high quality ingredients and fresh. Incredibly tasty and a cut above most restaurants for what’s available. Be prepared to wait, they are busy and it’s not like going to a fast food restaurant. You can call ahead and then pick up without waiting in line and for preparation. It’s completely worth the wait if you don’t plan ahead. You’ll be back as everything on the menu is beyond delicious!

Cooked to order, fresh, huge portion sizes, worth the money! They were able to accommodate my food allergy which was fantastic. I tried my partner’s polenta fries and those were amazing as well.

Oh my god, I’ve never wanted to make love to my food like I did the chicken and brie sandwich I had here today. The marriage of flavours between the balsamic onion jam, the garlic mayo, the crispy onion and the herbs of the chicken.. made me never want the burger to end. It was a whole delicious mess of absolute perfection, and I’m sharing the pic of it half eaten because why not. It was the best chicken burger I’ve ever had.

I'm not even finished my food and I had to leave a review. This has gotta be the best food truck I've ever gotten food from. The burger is unreal and the polenta fries are to die for. Highly recommend going here if you've never been. Can't believe it took me this long to try out.

Here we are again. This time my wife went with her burger which she once more devoured with delight and I tried the Ramen. I am not yet a hot spice person and was delighted that the cook used his expertise with veggies, herbs and spices to give the dish a heightened taste without the added fire which seems to be prevalent nowadays. Ate half and had the other half later that day. A lot of food in that container. Once more, really impressed with the food taste/presentation. Still need to try the ribs before the menu changes. Definitely a 5 all the way.
