Santacos food truck was at the Rocklin Community Festival Mother's Day weekend in 2026. I've been craving the grilled carne asada from La Taqueria in San Francisco for years now, but I am just too lazy to deal with the parking and lines there. I have been hoping to find an easier-to-access carne asada in the Sacramento area. While not the steak slices I have seen at La Taqueria, Santacos grilled carne asada is very tasty. I ordered the Bowl with Carne Asada. It comes with Spanish rice, whole beans, lettuce, tomato, onion, cilantro, guacamole, and sour cream. Generous portion. I'd say meat fills about 1/2 the bowl! Yummy dinner. Service was kind, helpful, and courteous. Because I asked questions about the carne asada preparation and cut of meat, she offered me a sample. It was near the end of festival day and the last day of the festival. Carne asada was tender and juicy. I look forward to trying the tacos, quesabirria, and quesadilla. I asked if the burrito wrappers were grilled, and they are! For the calendar and locations, follow Santacos on Instagram: @santacosmx read more

I like food trucks but I've never been a fan of taco trucks. The tacos tend to be bland, hastily made, soggy and underwhelming. This one, however, changed my mind about it. They were offering food at a local winery where I was attending a wine tasting. Surprisingly, it was quite good. We ordered a variety of things and it was shared among a group of eight. Everyone seemed to enjoy the different tacos, salads and bowls. What impressed me was the freshness and flavor, which so often is missing, especially from trucks. These folks, however, seem to know what they're doing If I happen upon this taco truck again somewhere I'm certainly a new fan. Try it. read more

Disappointing experience with the food trucks at the apartment complex The apartment complex brings food trucks out twice a month, which is a great idea in theory, but there needs to be better communication and accountability when it comes to making sure these vendors have the supplies they need. Today, the food truck didn't have Spanish rice available for anything on the menu. I ordered a bowl and was told it would have double beans instead, which I agreed to. However, when I got home, the bowl had barely any meat and an overwhelming amount of beans. We paid over $40, and it was incredibly disappointing to spend that much money on food that was missing items and poorly portioned. I understand that food trucks can run out of ingredients, but if you're going to charge these prices, customers should receive a reasonable portion of what they're paying for. If something on the menu isn't available, that should be communicated clearly, and the food should still be prepared with a fair balance of ingredients. I'm also disappointed that this seems to be an issue with how these food truck visits are managed. I'm not sure how much control the apartment management has over the vendors, but there should be some effort to ensure these trucks are prepared to serve residents and that customers have a good experience. Having food trucks come to the complex is a nice amenity, but it loses its appeal when residents are spending their hard-earned money on disappointing meals. Hopefully, there will be better planning, communication, and quality control moving forward. read more

Santacos food truck! The carne asada tacos are freakin delicious. Beyond five stars. What the heck did they put in the meat?!! It was so darn flavorful. Mmm. I am still thinking about them tacos. Also their housemade salsa verde and salsa rojo were amaze balls as well. They know their flavors. Mmm. I ordered the two taco plate that came with beans and rice. The tacos were a street taco size and packed with meat. The beans were perfectly cooked pinto beans. The Spanish rice was fluffy and soft. Yummers for both side dishes. My other taco protein was carnitas. It was good but I am still thinking about the carne asada. The carnitas was topped was with a fresh pineapple slice. Nice. However, the carnitas was oily, not complaining because fat is ~flavor. Just that it could have been drained more, so my tortilla would not have fallen apart sooner than it did which was after a couple of bites. Rest assured, none went to waste. The cashier was fabulous. She even handled some intense customers with ease and grace to de-escalate and calm the hangry folks. Pricing is comparable to other food trucks. It ain't cheap tho but what is anymore. read more

A tasty food truck, but Yelp prevented me from checking in for location, but were are amazing ! We had steak and pork street tacos. First the fresh made corn tortillas were the best we have ever had. The tacos were loaded with meat, whole pinto beans onion, cilantro, and a guac drizzle. They also came with some sliced grilled onions and fresh made hot sauce. These tacos were great! If we ever get the opportunity to run into them again, we will absolutely be eating with them again. read more

My first time trying Santacos was this weekend at the honey festival in woodland. I ordered the Asada Burrito. It was so delicious and a very big burrito. It had rice, whole beans (thoroughly cooked), cheese, asada and cilantro (I asked for no onions). It paired so well with the hot sauce they offer and was one of the best burritos I've had in a while. It was savory, hot and satiated my Mexican food craving. I'm also Mexican so this burrito went above my expectations than normal Mexican food restaurants/vendors. Would 10/10 recommend! read more

Couldn't comment on how great the pork is. Burrito full or rice, forgot about the meat. Times 2, as my husband had the same thing.

Not the best, not the worst. Nachos were $17. Not a whole lot of meat on there. A little skimpy. Decent flavor, everything was fresh. Probably wouldn't buy from this food truck again. Go somewhere else. read more

Overpriced, mediocre Mexican. Poor service food truck. Ordered a kids quesadilla for my 4 year old and same price as adult quesadilla meal - for a tortilla and cheese $8. Would not recommend. Even main meals were dry, flavorless. And seems management doesn't take care of employees since they are very grumpy. read more

I found this taco truck at my neighborhood trunk or treat event and decided to give it a try. I'm so glad I did! I ordered a taco macho - al pastor. It was about $7.95, which initially felt a little steep however there's plenty of meat and it's hearty! I loved that it has the Anaheim pepper and the pastor comes with pineapple pieces. It was delish! The customer service was great- everyone was courteous and had a smile on their face! I hope to try other menu items next time! Yum! read more

We went to Moksa for a beer and to our delight Santacos truck was there! We asked the lady setting up what her favorite thing on the menus was and she recommended the fish and the shrimp, so that's what we got! My husband got one fish and one shrimp taco with beans and rice and I got the shrimp quesadilla. Both were so delicious! The quesadilla was stuffed full of shrimp that was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Thank you thank you to the wonderful employee who recommended that! I will always look for this amazing food truck when I'm in town! read more

Caught Santacos food truck at dinner time on Greenback near San Juan 12-20-2022. Same parking lot as Ross, kohl's, Burlington coat, del Taco, Sport clips, pizza guys. They scored my business after the local Taco Bell lost my business due to lobby being closed. The service was kind and wonderful. Food ready in under 10 minutes. They invited me to wait in my car and they deliver it. The packaged it fantastically, too. You can pay cash or with a card. Their menu was short, simple and easy to read, i.e. just a few basic meats, no cabeza, lengua, tripe, etc. And about 12 food items. They had the basic taqueria taco but they add beans. I had volcanes (carne asada) and shrimp taco. Shrimp Taco (3 jumbo fried shrimp) was good, lots of flavor with the sauce. Didn't care for shrimp being fried. The volcanes was spectacular. Loved the tostada top and the contents. Fully recommend volcanes. I've seen their truck somewhere before, maybe same spot. Sounds silly but I didn't understand what the name was and even though I could tell it had something to do with tacos, I just wasn't curious enough until necessity dictated my decisions. I recommend giving them a try. read more

Tastes AMAZING! Best street tacos i've ever had. 100/10 would reccomend! :)))))))))))

We were lucky to have the Santacos truck at our local elementary school's book fair. We had never seen the truck before and looked at the menu board. The volcanes caught our interest. Since we never tried the Outlaw Cuisine truck either, we decided to buy one item from each truck. The volcanes was super good! The tortilla was perfectly fried and chicken was spiced deliciously. Definitely some great Mexican comfort food. My son ordered a chicken burrito and he loved it. The side of chips was a great choice--they tasted very fresh. Service was good, although Outlaw gave us a little pager which was a nice touch. read more

SPEECHLESS! I love a good food truck, but I have honestly never had a great experience with trucks who specialize in Mexican cuisine. Well I can say that today I found the BEST food truck burrito! Hands down, I got the chicken burrito, a coworker got the asada burritos, and another got the taco plate with veggie tacos. All the food was amazing, The staff were awesome, the food came out hot and fresh. I wish I had pictures to post, but do not fear, I will be back and I will absolutely continue to rave about this food. Santacos, you have a gem and I am so glad you came to our office! read more

Santacos catered my sons graduation party. Everyone raved about the food. They made tortillas onsite and they were amazing. Seems like tacos are popular for the grad parties but all my guests said it was the best and many requested their business cards. They showed up an hour and a half early set up and worked so hard in the 100+ degree heat in our back yard with no complaints. 100% recommendation. Can't say enough about how great and accommodating they were. Will definitely call them next time we need catering. read more

Just grabbed food from my weekly neighborhood food truck night. Shrimp taco- great breading, spice, and flavor. Quesabirria- not overwhelming like many versions of this. Nice and mild and the consome is flavorful. Nachos- lots of toppings and made with nacho cheese. Some don't like when nacho cheese is used but I do. read more

I ordered a 2 taco plate with a carne asada and Al pastor taco. The rice was definitely cooked the day prior, was not reheated properly. It tasted as if it came straight out of the refrigerator. Not a fan of the rice. The beans however were hot out of the cooker and delicious. The tacos were a good size and filling. They did not skimp. I enjoyed the Al pastor more than the carne asada. read more

Santacos used to occasionally come by my workplace in Roseville. They had some great tacos and deals. The Al Pastor always came with pineapple to cut the richness of the fat and balance out the dish. The salsas they had paired very well with all their dishes. Wait times are no longer than 5 minutes. And if they don't run out of their homemade corn tortillas, you're in for a great treat. read more

Had a solid chorizo bowl for a fair price, and they brought it right to my table (brewery location).

This taco truck is FIRE! ... My friend and I did a taco truck hop on Greenback Lane in Citrus Heights, stopping at four trucks on our journey. Our 1st stop, the Santacos truck. The customer service was on point and the food was amazing. What stood out too, was that tortillas are made fresh. Let me just say, try the Taco Macho. Absolutely delicious! Santacos was the best truck of the four that we tried. It was so good that we went back for more after visiting the other trucks. Can't wait to rerun. Highly recommended! read more

Fresh and so tasty! We passed the taco truck while we were out and decided to stop. We ordered a few tacos with different meats and a fried fish taco. The fish taco was by far our favorite, but everything was delightful and fresh! They took our order and said they would deliver it to our car! With our tacos, we received a red and green salsa, and grilled onions. We are very picky with our salsas, but all were amazing and so fresh. The fish taco had toppings, but was super crispy. The truck was very accessible with plenty of parking around. read more

Tried their quesabirria taco at the Dickens Fair in Old Town Elk Grove and it was one of the best I've ever had. Taco had generous amount of cheese and meat.
