Smaaken Waffle Sandwiches

I love this place!!!! The food is always great. The staff is friendly and are working hard to get your food to you. I love that they have gluten free options. This is my favorite pod of food trucks. Great seating, shade, or heaters depending on the time of year.
I usually get the grilled cheese and
Fries. I also really love their mustard!!

Great food cart love the waffle sandwiches.

Slow service for something that ultimately is not worth the gimmick — completely “fine” food but nothing to note about flavor or uniqueness. The waffles are flat and mostly bland. For a half hour wait time, just go to a restaurant.

I love this place so much that I have eaten there 2 days in a row now. I found them on Uber Eats and it was amazing and decided to come down to their cart to get it hotter phresher and to peruse their selection in person. The food came quick hot and left me feeling pleasantly stuffed in a way that allowed me to navigate the rest of my day with lingering memories of tasty eats..

I highly recommend anyone who wants a breakfast brunch meal anytime of day quick hot and yummy with a great price point and amazing flavor

My first but not last time eating here! I ordered the BLT and Bananatella. The waffle has a very mild flavor so the other pieces can shine but the BLT was a miss for me; when I got home I added some apricot jam and that made it really yummy. The bananatella was outstanding.

The service from Cosmo was FANTASTIC, friendly, and quick. They even gave my dog a piece of bacon! I think it’s a decent portion at an affordable price point. It’s lovely to sit at the fire and enjoy a meal

Damn good waffles, try the dreamy >3

obsessed with this place. lord freaking knows what hawthorne asylums hours actually are so watch out you don't get disappointed by a shut gate even when mr google says they are open, but the menu is dank enough that it would make carmy from the bear pale, and my leftovers have saved my life. plus gluten free? have mercy
