AMBIANCE:
Celebration Park is a chill, laid-back outdoor bar that features several food trucks daily. Most of it is covered, so even some rain won’t deter you from visiting! They also have live music most nights, and while I can’t quite recall the name of the band that was performing the night I was there, I had pretty much dreamed up my entire wedding to the lead singer by the end of the night. The food trucks offer plenty of variety so there’s something for everyone! And the bartenders are quick and kind! An unbeatable combo!

SERVICE:
Now this review is primarily for The Great Foodini’s Mobile Bistro. They have their menu clearly displayed in multiple places, as well as a stack so you can just grab one and ponder over your options (there’s a lot of them!). Once the order is placed, you receive an electronic disc which will light up and vibrate so that you’re free to roam around while you wait for your food, get a drink, and/or secure yourself a table on the premises (maybe do that first before ordering though if you can!). Once you’re notified, you just walk up to the window and receive your order. They also provide you with a tray if you ordered multiple things because thankfully they are aware you’re not an octopus and can’t juggle too many plates at once. Shortly after being seated and diving into an incredibly delicious meal (more on that below!), Chef David appeared and also gave us some complimentary snow crab! He is so nice, and it was also delicious! (Note: Snow Crab is in season at the time of this review — Autumn 2021. Please do not fret/complain if you do not receive complimentary snow crab and/or other menu items. Don’t be that person.)

FOOD:
The Great Foodini’s Mobile Bistro’s motto is: “Michelin star flavors for our every day neighbors.” And let me tell you, that is about as on point as it gets. The food I devoured truly had no business coming out of a food truck, but I sure am glad it did! The menu is quite extensive in general, but especially for a food truck. The best part is that it doesn't focus around one specific cuisine, so you will most likely find something you wish to eat. It truly has a global eats feel to it, and it is awesome! The menu also clearly outlines whether or not an option is GF, and there’s also little flag icons to indicate what kind of cuisine it is! If you’re in Naples, you definitely need to check out The Great Foodini’s Mobile Bistro at Celebration Park.
