Rafa’s Food Truck

Rafa's was my go to spot for Mexican food, but I don't go here that much anymore because the quality has changed. They used to be located inside the gas station, but now they have a small food truck right outside it. For seating, they only have one table and a few chairs. Since the food truck is outside and it has been very hot lately, I saw some flies near their kitchen entrance flying in and out. I wanted a quick meal from here, so I ordered a carne asada fries and a carne asada super burrito. I heard a worker start cooking right after I placed my order, so I know it was made fresh. The food was good but it does not hit the spot like it used to. The meat was a little tough and dry. They also use skinnier fries now instead of a regular cut.

Awesome food truck tucked behind the Shell station on Sheldon Road. This place is a hidden gem. I have ordered their carnitas burritos before and they were awesome! Today I ordered the chile relleno platter and it was amazing. They give you chips and salsa on the side too. Wait time is very minimal and the owners/order takers are really nice and friendly.

I've definitely been living under a rock. Even friends and family are surprised that I've never been here. I'm disappointed in myself for not trying this out sooner. I was craving carne asada fries and 3 people recommended this place to me. The carne asada fries are hitters. I love the skinny fries and the amount of meat and toppings it had. Typing this makes me want to get it tomorrow, lol. The lady who took our order was very nice as well. My husband asked for extra salsa and she gave us multiple with no charge! How sweet is that. We enjoyed the adobada burrito too! I'm sure everyone already knows they used to be inside the gas station, but now they're just right outside of the shell gas station in their truck! Yeah I know, I'm late. It's cool that you can order ahead of time too and just pick up!

This place is a real hidden gem now that they are no longer inside of the Shell Gas station! You can now find them on the side of where they used to be in their cute truck! Lol. I used to come here all the time for carne Asada fries. My fiancé and I just recently gave them a visit and they taste exactly how we remembered it! Delicious... I recently tried their taco salad with carne Asada and I really enjoyed it. You really get what you pay for which is what I enjoy here. They also give you extra salsa free of charge, they aren't greedy here!!! Service is super sweet too which I always appreciate. This place is probably one of the best taco trucks out here in Sac/EG.

It was good. Very nice people. I presume the owner was helping me at the window. Food was good. Will go back.

Absolutely love this food truck ! I've been eating from here since it was inside the shell gas station and it's always been a hit ! I love the chicken asada fries it's always enough for two people and full of flavor ! Simple but gets the job done every time. they now have a little table you can sit down and wait or even eat your food on when you order . It's located right on the side of the gas station in between the jiffy lube so I know they stay busy. The cashier she is always really sweet speaks Spanish to me all the time because she knows I studied. The fries cost almost 16 for the plate but they heap on so much chicken and toppings it's worth it. I've also had the shrimp burrito and fish tacos and they both were so good also . The super burrito is bomb ! This review was long overdue will definitely visit this place again.

I was really excited when I heard Rafa's was back with a food truck! I was bummed when I heard they closed the location inside of the gas station because I can't find a wet burrito exactly like theirs anywhere else. The last time I was craving it was when I was in labor, and then they closed soon after so I never got my burrito! They are located in between the Shell mart and the Jiffy Lube. I read reviews about their hours not being accurate but luckily I didn't experience any issues with that. When I came at 10:15 am on a Tuesday, they were open. They have a big open sign on the front of the truck too so it's easy to see if they're open when you drive down Bruceville. I ordered my Monster Burrito with shredded beef for myself, horchata, and a bacon egg burrito for my husband. The monster burrito was as delicious as I remembered, it's a wet burrito so it's loaded with enchilada sauce. I wish it had a bit more lettuce and sour cream inside but I can't complain about all the meat that is in there. I also love their green salsa, and even though you don't really need it for the wet burrito, it's great with other things like the carne asada fries. The food came out super fast too, I didn't even wait longer than 10 minutes which made this preggo mama happy to go home and start digging in!

Good Mexican food. The asada fries are the best! Love their breakfast burritos and fish tacos. Our go to when crazing Mexican!

Finally found good Mexican food in Elk Grove!!!! We tried the crispy shredded chicken tacos, adobada tacos, carnitas tacos and the chille relleno combo plate. The adobado tacos were my favorite! Carnitas came in close second. The shredded chicken in the crispy tacos was soooo flavorful!!!! I don't think I would order the combo plate again but that's only because the tacos were do wonderful.

My breakfast burrito was really good. The food was fresh and the man taking orders was very nice. Thanks!
