It all started with the city approving seven locations Downtown for food trucks and it has blossomed from there. Knoxville is growing across many industries, and its charming Downtown area has been revitalized thanks in large part to the World Fair, hosted here in 1982. This city is well known for its Market Square, the University of Tennessee Volunteers and Gay Street, the area's vibrant center. Knoxville is also a gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Foodies will be happy here. Knoxville has embraced the hard working food truck operators around town as the need for to-go options street side is clear.

It was amazing as always. I recently went back to NYC for a couple of weeks & it made me miss Piccolo; it’s simply that good. I couldn’t find pizza as good as their’s in NYC.

This truck is literally incredible. All of their food is higher than a 10. I would literally eat it everyday if I could.

My family and I love these whoopie pies and all the varieties! If you could find a food truck pick up spot closer to Exeter/Portsmouth we would love them even more!

I can’t rave enough about The Fix. We hosted a Super Bowl party and once the truck started serving there was only a minute or two before people’s orders were ready. The food itself: YUMMY! Perfect size so very tasty hamburgers and the fries were crispy with an amazing seasoning. Having the vegetarian burger was so welcomed by a few and they were sure to let me know they appreciated not only the fantastic taste but that they too could enjoy a hamburger. I couldn’t believe how many day after the party calls I received raving on how delicious the food was. You must hire The Fix for your event! Everyone will love you too.

The brisket was super moist, melted in my mouth. One of the best I've had in a long time. Bbq sauce was delish.

The pulled pork platter was delicious. Great side options. I do wish they had some sort of dessert. A banana pudding or cobbler would've been perfect.
