Braulio’s Bistro

Excellent foodFresh ingredients Lovely serviceMy fav is the penne pesto with chicken. Real pesto made with pine nuts! If you like spicy, they've got that covered if you want

Another top-notch Italian food truck! Braulio's Bistro is located at Modesto Grub Hubs food truck park and they are serving up some of your favorite Italian dishes. The menu isn't too big but they do have a menu for lunch and a separate menu for dinner, the dinner menu has a bit more offerings. The prices are a little on the high side but the quality and taste of the food justifies those prices.I have been trying to come to this food truck for a month or so now but I'm usually in the area on the says they are closed which are Sunday through Tuesday. They also are only open for dinner on Saturdays from 4pm - 8pm. I happened to pass by during dinner hours on a Friday and immediately stopped. The dinner menu had a variety of items such as fettuccine alfredo, penne romano, penne pesto, shrimp linguini, chicken parmigiana, chicken marsala and many other pasta/chicken & fish dishes. They also had a kids menu, various sides and drinks.I decided against getting my basic fettuccine alfredo and instead got the penne pesto, I was told that the pesto is made daily and it's one of the most popular dishes on the menu. The penne pesto was so delicious, the sauce was creamy, nutty and had such a good flavor and was not too oily. The pasta was cooked to perfection and was topped with fresh parmesan and parsley. I definitely could taste that the pesto was made from scratch. The dish also came with fresh baked garlic bread that was so divine. It was light and airy, had the right amount of garlic flavor and tasted even better dipped in the pesto sauce. Overall, I'm so glad that I gave this place a try and I will be back when I'm in the area and craving pasta. I now have two amazing Italian food trucks that are my go-to in the Central Valley, Braulio's did not disappoint!

You are going to get restaurant sized portions from a food truck!Located with the permanent food truck parking lot just outside of downtown modesto, you can always find parking.The prices are steep, but it is so worth it!High quality ingredients and choices for protein.Everything I have received to date has been fabulous, and we had so much food we had to finish it the next day. Even reheated the flavors were on point.Not pictured with my review was the chicken piccata w mashed potatoes and seasoned sautéed vegetables. The capers and sauce were so creamy good, and the veggies!!! The veggies perfectly cooked IMO!!The pesto is perfect and ample, no hunting for more, you get it all. High quality protein choices, next time I want to try the shrimp!Worth a visit, you never know how long a food truck will be around. Treat those taste buds today.

Fettuccine is the absolute best I've had ever. Pesto penne is fantastic! 10/10 super hot and fresh and fantastic a few days later

I don't know if it's just my luck, but every single time I have tried to come here since they've opened they're always closed and I have checked their hours. I follow them on Instagram and I have gone there within them. Definitely always check their Instagram to see if they're closed because that's where they will post. They are not consistent on their business hours which it's OK it's the best thing about owning your own business. It just kind of sucks for others. Eventually, I was able to go, and their food was honestly amazing. Me and my friend went for lunch, and it came with bread and salad as well. Two weeks later I ordered on there app through their Instagram, which I would not recommend because I selected their lunchtime frame I believe 11 to 2 o'clock I was charged the lunch price? However Indid not receive a side salad & my bread was not the same. I tried calling them after my pick up maybe 5mins later and it was 10 minutes until two. No answer. I messaged them on Instagram. They got my information and said it looked like I ordered from the dinner menu. No apologies or anything because why would I go during lunchtime in order off the dinner menu and my food was the lunch price. I explained what I did online when ordering maybe I'm wrong but they never responded to me after I told them what I had selected on there website. I guess you can say the customer service was just really sad because I've had high hopes for here and it was my second time ordering. Also, I ordered the pesto pasta with shrimp and my stomach hurt the entire day for my first meal it did not do it to me. Stuffed salmon I was also really hungry, so it was disappointing to not get the same meal that I got the first time maybe just don't use their website I might give them another chance if friends decide to go. The food is expensive. If you go at lunchtime, it's fair and that is why I ordered during that time.

Came across an Italian food truck and decided to share a menu on Yelp since I didn't see any postings or reviews from this place.

Picture taken Saturday at 8:58 pm . Best flavor huge portion friendly staff. The time taken for the food to be made was probably 15 minutes but it was enough time to walk around find a place to sit so I could enjoy the food. Benissimo place you definitely want to try the whole menu.

Huge disappointment. The chicken Marsala has zero Marsala taste. Watery. Cold. The chicken piccata is the same sauce with no lemon flavor. Also watery . Cold. I knew we were in trouble when the garlic bread wasn't even good. Vegetables weren't properly cooked. This was a rushed meal for $40 . Will not be returning to try the Cajun chicken pasta. Left a comment on social media and they blocked me Instead of addressing realistic criticism. Sad. Could have made this right . Instead made it worse.

Shit was ass hella watered down no flavor, the bread nasty no flavor as well. Gave me more vegetables then the noodles or anything like if I was a vegetarian or some. Not recommended at all. Idk why they got 5 Stars it's a no star.

Hidden Gem Alert!My daughter found Braulio's Bistro on DoorDash while we were craving Italian food, and wow, what a pleasant surprise! We ordered the Romano Pasta, Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken, and Chicken Piccata. The portions were impressively generous and even came with bread--a definite plus.Here's the kicker: five days later, I learned that this amazing food came from a food truck! I was genuinely shocked because the flavors and quality are what you'd expect from a full-service restaurant. Everything was cooked to perfection, and the taste was spot on.If I had one small suggestion, it would be to jazz up the homemade bread. It was a bit bland on its own. Maybe offering a side of garlic oil or a balsamic dip could elevate it even further.Overall, Braulio's Bistro is a game changer. I'll definitely be ordering again (and hunting down that food truck in person!). Highly recommend!
