I was fortunate enough to run into the folks at Nelly Belly operating at a function in Grafton. I mentioned to them that I came from Boston and struggled to find good pizza in NEO. They suggested I try theirs and to my delight I ate the best pizza I've had in my 8 years here.in a food truck. I would strongly recommend Nelly Belly for your event. Great pizza and great people.

Had a catered event at work featuring Nelly Belly. Very good pizza, hate to be cautious of the food truck angle but they were serving pizzas hot and fast. Great crispy crust, not skimpy on the toppings and cheese. Would eat again if I run into them.

Nelly Belly had delicious wood fired pizza at a good price and the staff was very friendly. Wait times were reasonable and did I mention the food was good? Will most definitely visit again!

Totally recommend, they make my favorite wood fired pizza. Delicious options for everyone, I'm vegetarian and they make my favorite super fresh veggie pizzas! Also, bonus it's a local family owned business!

I got to experience The Nelly Belly Food Truck at Bob-O-Link golf course in Avon over the summer. Overall I was 10/10 satisfied with the experience. I got to watch them stretch the dough, Put the Sauce and toppings on the pizza and cook the pizza right in front of me and the pizza came out nicely crisped and tasted amazing. The staff was professional and definitely knew what they were doing while having fun doing it. Highly recommend to anyone having any type of event you may have in the future!

My husband and I hired Nelly Belly for catering for our wedding, and we could not have been more pleased with this choice. Melissa was the most helpful and accommodating person I have ever met. The food was amazing from the pizza to the salad and chicken you can't go wrong. My Grandad has a gluten allergy and Nelly Belly still had a lot of options to accommodate that. Nelly Belly was a fun exciting change to the normal wedding catering options, and would 10/10 recommend them for any wedding!

Nelly Belly food truck is a must try! First off, this is hands down the best wood fire pizza I have ever had. Then I find out it's a local family owned business! The owners run the truck themselves, the whole family! They are the kindest most hard working group I have ran into and their PIZZA! I can't not express how delicious!

We have used the Nelly Belly Food Truck on numerous occasions for home / personal events. We have also sought out their Nelly Belly events across town, and have simply put, never been disappointed. Really love the staff, the friendliness, the options, etc. Quite frankly, LOVE love the pizza. If you need something unique yet fun, this is the option to go with! :

I have to say I was absolutely thrilled when we learned about Nelly belly and their services. We happen to use them to cater our wedding and could not have been happier! The food they provided along with the meal plan was absolutely perfect and super affordable! Our guests also raved about how fantastic they were. Food, staff, environment was all top notch and I highly highly highly recommend them for any and all future events.

Without a doubt the best pizza I have ever had! I have gone to several events they have catered, as well as personally going to locations they have been posted at for food truck events just to grab a couple of pizzas. You can tell immediately that they only use quality ingredients and as a huge bonus their staff never disappoints, everyone is always incredibly friendly and the owners are absolutely amazing as well!

I have even been to a wedding they had catered and they made it incredibly classy, yet fun and laid back, and can honestly say I would choose that over your typical wedding dinner any day!

Their pizza is so, so good! I loved the truck. There sound system piped out great tunes while you waited in line. They kept it moving amazingly fast! I think the chef had nine pizzas in there and they cooked in a few minutes. He said it is like 900 degrees in there! Love it! Best food at a wedding.

Difficult to work with. Wanted to use a local Avon Lake company for upcoming party with 70-80 people. Could not get anyone to call me back to work out a plan. After 4 weeks I gave up and sourced another pizza team vendor who seemed interested in the additional business.

Update: Eventually they simply refused to honor the voucher. It was still before the expiration date, so they came up with a new excuse and claimed they "never donated" to the charity auction. The very reputable local law firm that held the charity event was able to provide documentation proof that they did in fact donate and were simply lying. What a travesty. I would never recommend any business in which these people are involved.

These guys came to my work and when their card reader malfunctioned they got upset that everyone had their debit cards to pay for their food today and started swearing at people about it and we heard a remark also from the male "im f'n leaving i can't make any money at this place" a couple customers called him rude as well. i would not recommend this establishment

I just walked 1/3 of a mile to patronize this biz. I was the only person there @ 1p (3others did show after I left). Cool windy day. After paying $9 for my pizza, I asked if I could have another plate to cover the pizza for my walk back, he shook his head and made a face, so I left telling him he could keep his extra plate & I would not patronize his biz again. He shrugged. Obviously doesnt care & if your margins are so tight that a cardboard plate is fiscally devastating, what else are you cutting corners on?

Currently eating my farm fresh veggie pizza from Nelly Belly. Incredibly good. I told my wife I would get something from a food truck event today and was thinking it would be half of a pizza and a taco. looks like it will only be tacos. The crust is by far the best part. Perfectly sweet and savory. The wait can be a little longer, but it is because they don't put the pizza in the oven until AFTER you order it. Well worth it to have true blue wood fired pizza.

I had one of their wood fired pizzas for the first time last night, and it was fantastic. The crust was light and airy and tasted very fresh. When I finished eating it, I didn't feel stuffed. I just felt good. I don't find pizza like this too much anymore.

This is a truly unique food truck experience. The trailer has been transformed into a beautiful, wood fire pizza oven on wheels - serving up perfectly charred handmade personal pizzas. They have 2-3 standards and at least 1 seasonal. This week was a summer style with veggies. We saw them posted up in front of Jukebox for a Puppies on the Patio event. I would highly recommend checking them out at Edgewater Live, Walnut Wednesday's, and other events they have planned this summer.

This is a really exceptional food truck. For one, it's not actually a truck but a trailer (pulled by a truck). It has a real applewood-fired oven in it! I loved how they had one of each of the specialty pizzas out on the table so we could see which one looked best to use before ordering. And they put the menu way off to the side so it can be read by anyone. I'm talking to you trucks that put it the same place as where the first person in line stands and no one can see it.

Ok so the pizza! Delicious! I got one with mushroom, tarragon, and bacon and it was hard to believe it came from a food truck. The bacon blended in perfectly without overwhelming the pizza. One suggestion - have an easier way to transport the pizza (like a box) for people who have to navigate wind and stairs to get back to eating.

So they were 25 minutes late to my reception venue because they were lost (good planning). I suppose they don't come to the East Side too often.... Anyways, this made the set up late, which made the cocktail hour start 15 minutes late, and the guests had to stand outside until everything was set up. We paid for a "cheese medley passed" which apparently consisted of some cheddar cheese squares that look like they came from Sam's Club on a plate where no one even could see them.

And they cost us over 200 dollars! The cupcake tower we ordered (and had a picture of) was TERRIBLE looking- they were lopsided, tiny, and looked nothing like the picture that they emphatically insisted they could recreate with no problem. There are too many other things to list here, but all in all, I would NEVER recommend A Big Show to anyone. Definitely overpriced, and worst of all, the owner and caterer on duty lied about being late and tried to blame everything on the wedding planner.

Could someone please respond and tell me if a "plating fee" for the wedding party is standard practice, because my party had to serve themselves (so embarrassing) and I was told AFTER THE FACT that we would have had to pay a fee per plate in order for them to have been formally served. ABSURD.
