I was expecting a WW portion (6 bite) size of Chicken Alfredo and was pleasantly surprised by the portion size but I'm thinking there's no way this can be under 300 cal. The flavor was better than I expected considering it's low cal, wheat pasta but the cheese truly adds a lot of flavor and makes up for the reduced calorie flavors. This was definitly beter than expected. The strawberries in cream tasted better than itlooked but not sure it's worth $5. I guess that's what all the diet places get for their low calorie sweetness so maybe it's fair and it was a nice treat. I would definitely order from here again. I'm looking forward to trying other items on the menu. It's also nice that a truck delivers to my office!

I was really excited to taste Rocco's food so I ordered from Now Eat this Truck. It was a bit pricey for the regular joe's wallet but I said it must be worth it. Well, I ordered the lasagna and it was delicious but it was smaller than a Weight Watchers meal. Then I saw THE MIRACLE CUPCAKE for 77 Calories. I was so excited about it. It didn't taste that great but probably because of all the different products used to make it healthier. I have eaten an all gluten free, milk free, soy free cupcake before and this Miracle Cupcake was more of a disappointment. Especially the size. I'm guessing all the low calorie dishes are low calorie because of the portion size. I'm sure it's considered a normal portion but I just paid over $15 for the smallest about of lasagna and a tiny not tasty cupcake. Sorry Rocco, even though your lasagna was good, it wasn't worth the dent in my wallet.

not very happy with the food....I chose it because I'm a big fan of Rocco but it was just about AWFUL......The salad had a wierd taste and was half full...The sweet shrimp was pretty disgusting and the bolonese was strange...They need to do a complete overhaul because I love the idea and the menu..it just needs better execution....

Loved that this truck has so many gluten free options! The Rocco's Mama's Meatballs & Penne was delicious and I can't wait to dig in to the cupcake.

Loved the lasagna - although I'm skeptical about the cupcake only being 77 calories - C'MON NOW, TELL ME THE TRUTH

The estimated time was 60-75 mins, but I really wanted to try Rocco's food; this was the first time a CAR delivery person brought my food and I had to go downstairs because he couldn't find parking. I ordered the penne with meatballs that were perfectly tender & covered in a nice chunky & slightly spicy tomato sauce (YUM!). I was skeptical of the "gluten-free" penne, but they turned out OK; they tasted like they were made from a rice base, which is OK, but not as satisfying as "real" pasta. I think it was overpriced at $10 for the entree, but luckily I had a 20% discount for a 1st time order. It's actually only $7 at the truck itself.

The food is fantastic: it's fresh, it's comforting, and so delicious. So, kudos for the taste/freshness/convenience/health/price balance. This is totally a win on all those fronts. It's amazing that something so healthy can be made without any compromise on the taste. The service is great: quick and polite. Actually, the first time I ordered the delivery person forgot to bring the dessert. After apologizing she said someone will be bringing it up shortly. In a few minutes, I opened the door and Rocco was standing there with a whole bag of food: it was my little cupcake, plus ice teas, panna cottas, more cupcakes, etc. It was awesome and really cool actually! By the way, it all tasted amazing, too.

Just had the "Faux Fried General Tso`s Chicken". It started off very enjoyable-- until it became clear, though an after taste, that some sort of artificial sweetener was used in the sauce. Now, I get it; real General Tso's probably has lots of sugar in order to achieve that spicy/sweet thing that makes the chicken a favorite. But had I known this dish would have a finish similar to that of Diet Coke, I probably would have passed. A few weeks ago I had the Mama's meatballs and pasta, however, and that was fantastic.

Ordered lunch here today and it was fantastic. Delivery was fast and the food was so delicious I couldn't believe it was healthy. My whole department loved it and we will definitely order again. Even the head of my company asked for the menu. Try it and you'll want to eat it every day!

I just recieved the jambalaya and the chicken noodle soup. Both are amazing! They taste super fresh and flavorful. The chicken is tender plus the no-carb rice and noodles are a miracle as Im on a no-carb diet. In addition, the portions are HUGE and they even gifted me two low-cal cupcakes. Thank you Now Eat This Truck for giving me healthy options other than salad:)

Crazy good! How do you make lasagna low cal? Everything was super fresh and delicious. Lasagna was hot, which was impressive on this cold day and coming off of a truck! That cupcake is unreal! I usually stay away from "diet" foods, but with a real chef's name behind it I thought I'd check it out. Totally exceeded my expectations! The icing on the low cal cupcake? They have Zevia. Natural diet soda you buy at Whole Foods for more than you can get it from a food truck!

I got the penne + meatballs and the cupcake. The portion on the pasta was surprisingly small and the sauce wasn't quite as flavorful as I'd hoped. I'm not sure if they're muting the taste for the milquetoast palates of the people in the area or what but as an Italian-American I was disappointed. The food showed up cold and the cupcake was straight up nasty. Don't under any circumstances order that cupcake. It was positively wretched. However, the meatballs were delicious and the pasta was cooked perfectly. This (and the fact that they do gluten-free) is why they get two stars.

Don't even care that my first order with them took almost 2 hours to get delivered - they sure did make up for it with a comp'd meal next time. Both the bolognese lasagna and the black bean enchilada are phenom - and great customer service.
