On a Roll

And we're rolling! Rolling! Rolling on the river!!! Tell me you didn't read that in Tina Turner's voice picturing back-up dancers and all. This truck can definitely hang with the rest of them that's for sure. I was wandering amidst the lunch food truck round-up of Rancho Cordova and I was looking for some inspiration (technically my tummy was needing inspiration). Didn't want a burger. No on tacos, and frankly I'm a bit food fusioned out.......The crowd parts and what do we have here?! Sandwiches ey? Hmmm.....I hovered around the menu like a sunglass wearing vulture. Looked inside of the truck, looked back at the menu then at the order window. Me: "How's your pastrami? On A Roll Dude: "It's good! It's a turkey pastrami" Me: ........"Turkey?!" I really had no idea there was such a thing, but they were happy to give me a sample. Wow. Me: "SOLD!"My sandwich was stacked with turkey pastrami goodness, melted provolone, thousand island and an awesome spicy wasabi mustard. I know I know the wasabi sounds off the wall, but trust me on this it works! The marble rye bread was slightly toasted on the outside and they were nice enough to put those little sticks in each half of the sammy to keep it together. You know the sticks that normally are in a freakin steak! That's how stacked this sandwich was. I don't even wanna hear about the price because for $8 bucks I was very happy with the money I spent. I've gone to some other lunch spots, food trucks, you name it and gotten a heck of a lot less for $8 bucks.This truck is legit and I will be trying out the rest of the menu they have. Sounded like some awesome sides and beverages, i.e. corn salad, tater salad, Italian sodas. Keep your eyes peeled for the Green, Black, and White truck. I know I will.

The On a Roll truck came to our workplace today and based on the yelp reviews I was actually excited to try this one. I got the hot pastrami sandwich for only $8 and it wasn't a miniscule sandwich. It had plenty of meat and the rye bread was good. The service was quick and friendly and has me wanting to try some more of their sandwiches.

I'm new to Food Trucks & am learning fast! Today we had On A Roll roll on into my work place parking lot. I had seen their menu & was excited to have the Turkey Cranberry. When I got tot he truck I noticed their menu was written on white board & their were only about 5 choices. Hmmm, Turkey Cranberry was not on there. I was informed that they don't have all the sandwiches every day. That's ok. To be fair the menu was sent to us by our corporate so it may not have included that disclaimer. Anyway I asked, if they had the ingredients, could they see their way to making it anyway. I really had my heart set on it. No problem they said. Luckily they had the cranberry mustard on hand! So I placed my order along with an order of their corn salad. I'd never had one before so was interested in giving it a go.From order to delivery it was less than 5 minutes.The sandwich was nice sized, not too big, not too small. On par with the size of sandwich size I'd get a the local Raley's deli. The bread roll (white) was soft & slightly dry. Not too dry, but maybe a day or two away from stale. I can hang with that.The turkey was thin sliced(very thin) & seemed like a deli meat & not shredded turkey of the bone, but it did not appear like pressed parts like some store bought deli meat can seem. It was light & not salty. The veggies were light, more meat than greens, with red onion as well. I'm ok with that. The spread was cream cheese, plain & the cranberry mustard. The mustard definitely had a cranberry color & I could taste the berries mixed the mustard, which was a whole seed type, country style. Loved the taste of that! The corn salad had whole kernels of corn mixed with micro-shreds of cheddar cheese & some sort of mayo or cream cheese dressing. It was thick, not thin, with green bells peppers (chopped) & red onion. And corn chips (looked like chili cheese flavored Fritos!). This thing was seriously tasty. I'd make this at home!All in all, I had a good hearty sandwich that I pretty much nursed it all afternoon! And a corn salad that was new to me & something I'd totally get again!

Went to this truck today and ordered the hot pastrami. OMG it was so good! I paid $8 for my sandwich and WOW it was worth every penny. I will definitely look for them again.

Went to Tahoe Park Sac MoFo event, saw this new truck "On a Roll". Being so hot today I ordered a Chicken Bacon Salad with fresh Dill Salad Dressing. This salad was worth the $9.00 price, I had to share it as it was so filling. Fresh bacon, fresh cooked chicken and all the salad fixings and the Dill salad dressing, all I can say is "umm umm good".

Open House at Carrington College and On A Roll was in the parking lot. Food trucks are not what they used to be and this one definitely stands out as one of the best I've been to. I went with the chicken artichoke sandwich with a side of potato salad and it was super. The shredded chicken and chopped artichokes were a nice combination and the potato salad was perfect. I hope they are asked back for all of our events.

I was in the mood for a cold salad on this very warm Sacramento day. I was walking on my way to my usual lunch place when I remembered it was Food Truck day! I decided to take a chance with On a Roll and their Chinese chicken salad. Unfortunately I was disappointed. I have to say that the chicken in this salad is worth 5 stars - fresh and delicious! However, some of the lettuce was brown and that is a pet peeve of mine. For $9 the lettuce should not have been brown or wilted. The dressing is slightly sweet and good. The sandwiches did look very good. Next time I plan to try their chicken and artichoke!
