👍👍 4 stars for atmosphere only because it's a food truck and God Himself is in control of the atmosphere! 🤣 But the food is excellent! I had the Mayport shrimp poboy and fries and being born and raised in south Louisiana, I was NOT DISAPPOINTED. Fries were fresh and cooked with the seasonings on them!...
