"After a stint cheffing at the McCarthy Lodge, he opened the Meatza Wagon in 2015, a food truck serving a menu of nourishing comfort like meatball subs, pork carnitas, and seasonal specials like nasturtium-bedazzled souvlaki steak bowls (there are plenty of plant-based options, too)." - Jeremy Pataky

I have been to six continents and would have never thought I would stumble upon the best sandwich ever here in Kennicott. The Three Little Pigs sandwich is legit the best sandwich I’ve ever had. It was full of flavor, tender, and the bread was perfectly soft but also crunchy. The freshly baked cookies were divine too. My friends and I cannot stop talking about how amazing the sandwiches were. My friends said they would make the difficult trek all the way back to Kennicott just to have this sandwich again.

In the middle of basically no where, a wonderful option for good food made well. There is seating in front of the wagon, overlooking the glacier flows and the river. We ordered the Salmon BLT, Flat Bread Sandwich, and The Meatball Sub. They were all freshly made with good ingredients, and yummy. They also have all kinds of drinks available. The service is a bit slow, perhaps as there is only one cook.

Can you have a delicious sandwich and eat outdoors in the middle of an almost-wilderness? Yes you can at Meatza food truck at the Kennecott mine site in Wrangell-St. Elias. I had the Carnitas Tacos and my wife had the Meatball sandwich, both excellent. It's all outdoor seating, with a roofed shelter available. Update: we went back next day, I had the same carnitas tacos, wife had the Chicken burrito special, and we got the fresh-baked and still warm chocolate chip cookies. Delish! Just walk up, order, and eat -- other places nearby need reservations or not available unless you are a lodge guest. Reasonable prices, and great views of the glaciers and mountains surrounding this historic mining area in the middle of a very remote National Park.

Cannot emphasize TRY THIS PLACE enough!!!!! Wonderful food, we got three portions for two people because it was SO good! Who knew that the best food was all the way out here?!?! The owner helped us out when he saw us walking halfway to kennicott getting eaten up by mosquitos. After some small talk and hearing that he owned a food truck, we wanted to stop by to pay forward a favor. This was the perfect meal after our hike to the glacier! The food was incredible. I reccomend the salmon BLT (the world's best salmon is caught HERE). Nice fridge with cold drinks too.

Great place for a quick bite in Kennecott. Nice pavilion to sit at. Self serve soft drinks. We had the Three Little Pigs and Rockfish tacos, both excellent.

Food was amazing, they had vegetarian options. Staff was very friendly too. There is a very nice covered sitting area to enjoy dine-in.

The three pigs sandwich was to die for and exactly what I needed after a grueling 9 mile hike! The pasta salad was delicious: there was many cold drink options and a nice view. We even went back and got ice cream cups after our second hike . Fast, friendly service and delicious food. This place is not to be missed if you are in the area.

The Salmon BLT was the best sandwich I‘ve ever had! Full of flavor and just yummy. The view on the glacier is stunning, too. Make sure to go there when you are in Kennicott!
