Shrimp Empanadas
Allie G.

I was very excited to try Mariscos Las Playitas because of its great reviews, but it only partially lived up to the hype. I was torn on what to order, but ended up choosing the Shrimp Empanadas. They came in two different portion sizes, and I got the smaller one (6 empanadas). Service was friendly and the food took about 10 minutes to be ready. The empanadas were tasty and flavorful, but far from the best I've had. They came with three sauces - a green salsa that was very spicy, a red salsa that had a good spice level but slightly sour aftertaste, and mayo. I ended up using the mayo and red salsa the most. The portion size was generous and the meal was very filling. Overall, I would return to order something different next time!

I paid $12 for a shrimp quesadilla that was really good. Their green sauce is pretty spicy, so be careful! I'm not sure if they have anything milder, but I enjoyed it. The service was pretty quick, and they seemed to stay busy. They are located in the same parking lot as McDonald's on Gerber Road near Power Inn.

Let me tell you that this is the best Mariscos that I have found in Sacramento. The flavor is good and they have a tv to watch the game.

The taste was right on point on the sauce super spicy but loved it. Was a little bit disappointed on the size of the shrimp. Would definitely go back.

Shrimp Gobernador, Fish Taco and shrimp empanada . Best tacos outside Baja .

Sacramento's Best Taco Truck secret. I ordered the Shrimp Governador and Fish tacos. They were delicious . Freshly made, tasty . Served with a side of finely shredded cabbage, diced tomatoes and thinly sliced red onions perfect compliments to the tacos .

Tacos de Governador & that delicious spicy salsa

So I'm in the area and it's lunchtime, and I'm thinking I want something that really hits--but I…read morealso wanted a true mom-and-pop spot because I genuinely like supporting local businesses whenever I can. So I hop on Yelp⁠, type in tacos, and bam... Rafa's Taco Truck pops up. The reviews had me thinking, ok... I might've just hit a home run. It was close to me, so I figured let's go check it out and see if the hype was real. I pull up and the truck is nestled right by a gas station, and honestly if you know, you know--sometimes those low-key spots end up having the best food. I ordered the taco plate with carne asada, rice, beans, and two Mexican Cokes because... why not go all in? Let me tell you, these tacos and that rice and beans played an important part of my day lol. One bite instantly took me back to those days of finishing a hard 3-mile run and rewarding myself with tacos after. That first bite just hit differently. The carne asada was flavorful, tender, and seasoned just right. The rice and beans were straight comfort food and completed the plate perfectly. What made the experience even better was the service. The staff was super hospitable, polite, and just genuinely welcoming. That matters to me just as much as good food. Great food always gets my attention, but good people are what make me want to come back. If you happen to see this truck, do yourself a favor and flag them down. Definitely worth the stop.

So. . . My dad and I were hanging out the other day and he asked me " Have you ever been to that…read moreMexican food truck over by the Shell gas station?" Why, no. No, I have it. So I decided to check it out later that day. My daughter and I arrived in the evening and it was freezing cold. The woman working in the truck wasn't very personable, but that could be because of the cold weather and it being towards the end of the day. I don't know. I ordered a shredded beef super burrito with everything, Carne Asada fries and two grilled chicken tacos. Total came out to approximately $37. I wasn't really tripping until I got home and checked out the Carne Asada fries. My burrito was very delicious and the green salsa that they give you is so good and the grilled chicken tacos were good but the Carne Asada fries weren't pleasing. The meat on the fries was seasoned well so it tasted good, but it was just fries at the bottom and then just like a thin layer of meat and cheese on the top. The meat and cheese to fry ratio was off in my opinion. Other than that, everything was great. You can order ahead of time and pick it up, which they are really quick about. When I was trying to figure out what I wanted, I heard the woman talking to a customer who was ordering by phone. The lady told her she could pick up her order in 10 minutes and it was ready very quickly, which is something I love. I'll definitely be back to get that super burrito and to try other things. The food was really good and I definitely recommend checking this truck out.

The location may not be ideal, but if you want some sweet treats, coffee, or snacks, it is worth a stop. We braved a freezing Sunday morning to try this new spot. I got a hot banana bread latte to pair with a slice of banana bread and brown butter chocolate chip cookie ($3). OMG I had to take a bite of the cookie as soon as I took it out of the bag. It was perfect: texture, amount of sweetness, flavor, everything you could want in a chocolate chip cookie! I loved the moist and chunky banana bread with walnuts. So good with a nice cup of hot coffee. My banana latte was the bomb! Not too sweet and the banana flavor still came through. Jas said that was her favorite also. Jas is just as sweet as her menu! Service was great, although since she is the only one making the drinks, the wait was a little long. There are a couple tables and chairs and a resident cat (we didn't see it that morning...probably curled up in its little warm house). Look for the pink truck on Stockton Blvd and support Jas and her sweets!

It was very busy but you can tell the staff was on top of everything and the music was literally such a vibe. It reminded me of just being around family enjoying a Sunday afternoon. Our waiter was friendly and offered the specials, not gonna lie we wanted to try everything. My husband and I enjoyed a michelada and our daughter had a Pepsi. We clearly ordered way too much much and had plenty to take home for dinner tomorrow. Everything was AMAZING! We're already planning our next trip out here. My daughter said 10/10!

We got the "special" buy one pound get the next pound free so we did shrimp. We got shrimp, sausage, corn, potatoes, and dungeness crab with the special blend in one bag. The hook and reel special blend was honestly pretty gross it was sweet, Smokey and not very buttery or salty at all. We asked for lemon pepper and extra butter to put inside(which was an extra charge) it made it a little better but I've definitely had better elsewhere. The garlic noodles were really good they had a soy sauce flavor, garlicky and cheesy. The price was pretty expensive considering I've spent $30 less elsewhere. Here at hook & reel I spent $96 The service was good. She was very kind and helpful but also wasn't very attentive. The restaurant and the bathrooms were very clean. Overall I wouldn't come back and I recommend going to Captain crab in Elk Grove it is so much better tasting and cheaper!!
