They came to our office via Fooda. The menu looked good and everything was reasonably priced.
For $9, I got two sliders and a side (you could also get tacos instead). I had the falafel slider and the pulled pork. The pulled pork was the better of the two, especially with the slaw on top.
I got rice and beans on the side, and they weren't great. Just black beans with some lightly seasoned rice.

The best part of Mike N' Willies are their sliders. While they tend to be a bit greasy they are a great little meal to get you through lunch.
For meat lovers you can't go wrong with the Pork (Lil Piggie) or Beef (Big Bad Brisket) sliders.
The Lil Piggie packs a little sharp bite from the slaw which works well with the pulled pork. The sauce they include can sometimes be a bit overpowering and underwhelming depending on how it was made that day.
The Big Bad Brisket is my personal favorite. The fried onions on top give it a good crunch and for some reason the sauce on it has always been evenly distributed when I eat it.
My only complaint about the sliders is their tendency to be a bit greasy. By the time I bring the container back to the office there is a little pool of grease at the bottom of each slider. While it isn't healthy to do, I like to dip the slider in the grease to enhance the flavor.
I do recommend trying the Chips & Guacamole, mainly to try the chips which are better than most places that serve it. The Guacamole is about average, sometimes being a bit bland for my liking, but the chips make it worth it. A good chip and flavor. They look a bit oily, but I am assuming that they are homemade.
I have yet to try their tacos.
Service: 3.5 Stars
Service is smooth and they are helpful with recommendations for first timers. Overall a standard service you come to expect.

Mike N' Willies is pretty good overall. I wish the sliders wouldn't disappear in 2-3 bites.
The prices are decent compared to the other food trucks around (3 items for $10).
There usually isn't a long line (in the Winter anyway), but I would recommend that you try it at least once, and then get hooked for life.
I really wanted to like this food truck. Easily accessible pulled pork sliders, how awesome! And the guys who work in the truck are always super nice and friendly. But the food just doesn't do it for me and it gets worse during the lunch rush. I've tried their pulled pork slider (I think it's called the Lil Piggy or something else ridiculous) twice. The first time it wasn't bad, but not something I would find myself eating because I was craving it, it's more of a convenience thing. So the second time I tried it again and also got the short rib taco. I didn't finish either. The slider was cold and the slaw tasted off, and the sauce and whatever else that was on the taco was downright gross. The meat is always cooked nicely, hence the two stars.
I actually really like this food truck a lot. I ordered the fish taco and the short rib taco. Both were really good and topped with delicious flavor. Love the habenero plum sauce. Coleslaw topped on the short rib was delish, I highly recommend!
