Policies.

Plain rules for pre-orders, pickup, delivery and your data.

Pre-orders

  • Every order is a pre-order for one day. You pick the day when you order.
  • Orders for each day close at the cutoff shown on the site.
  • We cook only what's ordered, so each day has a limit.

Pickup

  • Pickup is in Palmdale. The exact address comes with your order.
  • Come during your day's pickup window and bring your order number.
  • Running late? Text us before your window ends.

Delivery

  • We deliver to Palmdale, Lancaster, Rosamond, Littlerock, by ZIP code.
  • Each town has its own delivery fee. Delivery orders have a minimum of $50.
  • Someone needs to be home during the delivery window.

Changes, cancellations and refunds

  • Cancel before your day's cutoff for a full refund.
  • After the cutoff we've already shopped and cooked for you, so there's no refund.
  • To change or cancel, text us your order number.
  • Card refunds take 5–10 business days to reach you.
  • If we ever have to cancel, we refund you in full.

Payment

  • Card payments go through Stripe. We never see or store your card number.
  • When pay at pickup is offered, you pay with cash or Zelle.
  • The total you see before you pay is what you pay.

Allergens

  • Each flavor lists what it contains, like pork, chicken, dairy, lard or chile.
  • Everything is made in one kitchen, so we can't promise there's no cross-contact.
  • Have an allergy? Ask us before you order.

Your privacy

  • We ask for your name, cell phone, email and address only to fill your order.
  • We never sell your information.
  • We use Google Analytics, Google Ads, the Meta Pixel and the TikTok Pixel to see which ads work.
  • If your browser sends Global Privacy Control, those tools never load.
  • You can also turn them off with Privacy choices at the bottom of every page.
  • We text you only about your order, and about next season if you check that box.
  • Reply STOP to any text to stop.
  • We keep orders until next season so you can reorder. Text us to delete yours.
