Absolute perfection. The shrimp burrito here is an absolute must-try--packed with perfectly cooked, juicy shrimp and tons of flavor. But don't sleep on the crispy tacos (tacos dorados); they have that flawless, satisfying crunch you're always chasing. Pro Tip: Ask for grilled onions, grilled jalapeños, and their pickled veggies on the side. It elevates everything to a whole new level! Outstanding food and great service. read more

Navigated this street that had what seemed to be 1 or 2 Taco trucks every block to try what some consider to be the best of them, and wow. The truck is located in an easy to access lot, with parking a plenty, and 3 to 4 tables that seat 3-5 people. The Al Pastor taco was beyond fantastic, rich in flavor that was popping, plenty of meat , cilantro and onion. The Asada was just as flavorful, with a crispy shell and cheese. The salsa provided was very tasty with a little kick of heat. Next time I'm in the area I wanna come back hungeier and try the Burrito which I hear is superb. read more

Meats were seasoned well including the al pastor and nothing was oily. luv the taco dorados too! excellent! if i lived here, ill be going at least 2-3 times a month. read more

This place is amazing, I don't know what took me so long to try it out! Today I got the tacos Dorados and they were so extremely delicious. The shell was nice and crunchy. There was lots of Cotija cheese on top. Good salsa. I was able to get four tacos under $18, very reasonably priced. I'm excited to try some different options as well and I will be coming back with my whole family! read more

I've stopped here many times on my way home from work. The food is fresh and flavorful. The service is quick. I usually don't have to wait long; this is a food truck so it is in a parking lot so ambiance is fine for a food truck. It's a good price and convenient right off of Santa Rosa Avenue. At least, that's where I seen them today on my way home from work. We all ordered some food from this food truck today. My entire department was enjoying their lunch today, and I will be happy to call on them again soon. Cheers, my friends SYOY 06/18/2025 review #377 read more

El Roy's Express Mex - Super Burrito Asada - Mexican Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

Crave-able! My favorite burrito in Santa Rosa so far. I like the food trucks and the restaurant location. Consistently good.

Don't just order two tacos...go for four! Trust me, these are hands down the best damn camarones tacos I've ever had, and I'm not exaggerating, I still dream about them! You can choose between crunchy, crispy, or soft tortillas, and that creamy sauce they drizzle on top? It's like a flavor explosion that makes your taste buds throw a party. Each bite bursts with deliciousness, especially when you add the side of red sauce they give you...it's like a flavor firework show! The best part about these tacos are that they hold together like champions. I genuinely wish they'd set up a truck in SF because I'd be first in line every day. The staff is super welcoming and friendly, and there's plenty of outdoor seating for you to bask in taco glory. If you're a true taco hoe, you've got to come here. read more

Live down the street from el Roy's and for years they have been consistent. Obama was president when I started going to this food truck. The two things I love from this truck are the taco darados with cabeza and a carne asada super burrito with double meat no rice (sometimes rice) I will also do a carne asada burrito and add shrimp for a surf and turf burrito needless to say this is the spot I go to for the best burrito in town or for some crunchy tacos. read more

I used to love el Roy's trucks and their new restaurant. Unfortunately I just no longer have 20-30 minutes to wait for food. It's 20-30 minutes when there's only 2 people in front of you. And takes 1-2 hours when there's 5-10 in front of you. Who has the time for mediocre food? It's not good Mexican food whatsoever, just convenient because they've popped up food trucks everywhere. I would consider this in the level of taco bell except they use real (but SUPER CHEAP NO FLAVOR) meat. Spend your money and time elsewhere. read more

I ordred the "super" burrito...it was NOT super in any way, and the burrito was nothing special....not worth the money !I

Food is always delicious! Looks clean, always friendly staff. They always get the order right! I'll add photos soon!

I love this place, I mean really love it, fresh tacos, simple and superb, humble and hitting it all, feeding the streets and the people and the soul, you could put this on a fancy plate anywhere and it'd still sing. El Roy's, thank you, thank you, my devoted fan heart follows you, always. Simple, perfect, alive with flavor, and real. read more

Best place to go! All their meats and dishes are incredible and service is super friendly. We eat here once a week and love this place. A must go to. read more

I love el Roy's! Classic Mexican dishes that always leave me wanting more. My favorite item to get is the "el dorado tacos" these crunchy shell tacos are the freshest hard shell tacos Ive ever had. They are topped onions and cotija cheese. They come in a plate of 3 tacos for $15. They obviously have great burritos and soft tacos also. But I can't help but order the dorado tacos every time. They are a good truck, so the seating and ambiance could be better. I hope they branch out and get a Restraunt location someday. Highly recommend. read more

The food is so good! All I get lately is the chori-queso but the tacos dorados are also a big hit. I love the efficiency of the company and the family feel. Come for the food and stay for the service. read more

Their brick and mortar restaurant is amazing, they only thing more amazing is their thick green salsa. Both my daughter and I drink the green salsa while we are eating our food. The lengua and Pescado tacos are so good. read more

Came back to Santa Rosa really wanted to find the truck that we found the last time. Unfortunately, we found a different location. As soon as my partner and I came up to the truck, we felt like they started judging us. We placed our order. The lady was super nice. We asked her what was in the torta. She told us what it was my partner ordered it, and the men just continue to look and stare. As you can see in the pictures, everything looks amazing unfortunately, the torta had no flavor to it whatsoever. I will definitely not go back to this location. I will try to locate the other location we went to which now we believe it's in the one Santa Rosa Ave. and not Sebastopol. The men should not be very judgmental about an interracial couple. read more

Elroy's has some great shrimp tacos! Three shrimps on each taco with a delightful, mild creamy sauce. It has very good flavor, and they have a hot sauce that goes on it as well, which is still kind of mild. If I have one criticism, it could have a little more kick to the dish but it has really good flavor as it is. Definitely worth stopping for the shrimp tacos, and I plan to try one of the other menu items. read more

Love love El Roy's food. Prices are better than most. Friendly , quick and delicious.

Did someone say shrimp tacos from el Roy's?! I'm there! They are always yummy! From lunch to dinner. I'm not sure if they do breakfast- but I personally don't want them for breakfast, but no judgement if you do. I get it. So anyway, I don't know what creamy sauce they put on those, but I'm hooked. My to go is 2 shrimp tacos and a sope al pastor. The sopes here are my favorite. They have that crunch to perfection. I just ate, I'm hungry again. Well they take card even though they are a food truck which is a plus for me. read more

Highly recommend these tacos dorados "golden tacos" on all days not just Tuesdays. My favorite tacos that I have them at least once a week. The shrimp is my favorite. Creamy refried beans in the hard crispy taco shell hits! I love the asada and carnitas ones too. Must eat right away! The shell gets soggy so it's not the same experience whatsoever. I love their chicken quesadilla too! It's so flavorful and yummy. The jamaica and horchata is a must with the tacos, especially if you're like me and douse your tacos with salsa. The horchata helps with that kick! Their sauce is the best thing ever! I buy an 8 oz so I can have more at home to put on my homemade tacos. They also have these spicy pickled onions, carrots and jalepeños that compliments their dishes perfectly. There's 3 locations, all of which are very convenient to get to. Call in the order for faster service. I inhale these the moment they are in my hands. Mmmm so good! read more

I was starving after a hike and decided to stop at El Roy's taco truck located in the parking lot next to the library in Petaluma. I ordered a regular carne asada burrito with side of sautéed onions and jalapeños. The staff was friendly and the service was quick. The portion was perfect and the flavor on point! Very authentic and just simply , delicious! Only slight negative is nowhere to sit- no tables. Not a big deal for me. Still recommend! read more

If you're looking for a delicious taco experience, look no further than Roy's Food Truck! Located in a vibrant but industrial outdoor spot in Santa Rosa, this gem serves up some of the best al pastor, pollo, and asado tacos In town. tacos are bursting with flavor and made to perfection! The al pastor is pure magico, with the perfect blend of spices and that little crisp on the edges. The pollo is juicy and tender, while the asado has that wonderful smoky flavor that really takes it to the next level. And let's talk about the salsa! It's fresh, zesty, and has a mild kick that complements each taco. For an even more flavorful experience, definitely ask for the grilled onions and jalapeños - they elevate the tacos to a whole new level! The atmosphere is super inviting, with a great outdoor setup that makes it perfect for chilling with friends and enjoying your meal. The service is friendly, but I do wish it was a bit easier to hear the staff when they're takin orders. Overall, Roy's is a must-visit for taco lovers. Grab your friends, order a few tacos, and enjoy the vibrant outdoor ambiance. You won't regret it! read more

In my endless pursuit of the perfect taco, I took my co workers recommendation and tried El Roy's. I was advised to phone it in as the line and wait times can get long which i expected from 10 x city champs. They got good tacos, they really do. I have been back since and had the same thing, i am just straight addicted to Chorizo tacos right now. Anytime, anywhere, and they are just as good as the other top notch places I will be reviewing. As was recommended to me, call it in first, that way its waiting for you. Parking is cool and the folks are nice too. I would definately give El Roy a try! read more

El Roy's is the best taco truck in Santa Rosa! This is the first time I've been to this location and it's just as good as the others without such a long line. I either hit it at the perfect time or it's just a little less busy than the other trucks! read more

Best take out Mexican food in Santa Rosa. Fresh, fast, and delicious. Always the same good food.

El Roy's is possibly the best taco truck in all of Sonoma county, I've never had a bad experience here everything from their tacos to quesadillas to the hotdogs are all delicious. The service is always quick and friendly everyone works well together in such a small space the employees always look like they are having a good time serving all the hungry customers. I never really eat at the provided tables but I did notice that they are in good condition and fairly cleaned well, my only complaint is they never give you enough of the red & green salsa. read more

What was a waiting for, why did I drive by too many times for so long, wondering, waining! I am so happy I finally stopped at the Sebastopol food truck express location with a friend and ordered the Tacos Dorados, a plate of 3 crispy and plumply filled tacos with the protein of your choice. I ordered 2 carnitas and one carne asada, mild verde sauce on the side. The texture of the puffy but crispy shells I would liken to an airy tostado shell, then the carnitas, perfectly seasoned, not salty and not fatty were delicious and memorable, CRAVABLE! The steak taco was good too, but the Carnitas! And they paired perfectly with the verde salsa, Perfect! Everything on my plate including the salad and radishes were fresh and enjoyable. Now the limited picnic table seating isn't optimal, so I would suggest to-go, but if you want to eat them fresh, you could cross the street over to the multiple food truck picnic court and enjoy your bounty there. My 3 taco trio was just over $11 and well well worth the cost, and I would challenge anyone to find a dish of this quality anywhere in the county for less. read more

I wish I could give it six stars because this is my new location. It's like one stoplight and two blocks away from me. The Dorados is the best I've ever had. I got Al Pastor and the fajitas had steak and shrimp and mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, and the sauce is pretty delicious. Can't wait for the grand opening I'll be there and probably at least 1-2x a week and that's not including weekends . There is nothing more I can say about the new Santa Rosa Ave. location or how else I can convey my excitement. Y'all just have to go get it get it. read more

Cant believe I didn't stop by sooner! There are many taco trucks around Sebastopol Rd. This is the 2nd one I've tried and didnt disappoint me. I got the 3 taco plate: chicken, fish and shrimp. They are small street tacos loaded with meat, tomatoes, onions, sauce, lime, raddish and a side of salsa. The most flavorful one was the shrimp tacos, a little spicy ting, fresh shrimp. The fish and chicken was a bit more bland than the shrimp but equally as good. If you're hungry I would get the burrito or quesadilla instead as I was still a little starving after the small 3 tacos. The wait for the food was about 10+ mins. The parking lot is small but we were able to get a small but tight spot. Recommended to try! read more

Food was below average. Chicken tacos were tasteless . Walked 25:feet to taco place across the way and they were delicious cious

Fish and shrimp taco were delicious! Full of flavor. I got the taco special which included rice and beans. Very good food. Service was good and efficient. This is a taco truck and we got there just in time before the line got very long. There were plenty of tables to sit at to enjoy your food. read more
