Cali Love Food Truck

Caught them at the track 7 brewery. Food came out fast and hot. I got the dirty bird and it was delicious and the poutine fires were amazing as well.

This is my 3^rd time having their food. I was with several of my friends so we pretty much had almost one of everything on their menu. The food was delicious. The dirty bird was juicy and flavorful. The poutine fries were perfectly seasoned. Not sure why this place has other low reviews but it’s definitely worth trying out.

Elk Grove Brewfest — ordered the rueben with kimchi (NorCal Rueben) — OMG absolutely delicious. Can’t wait to have it again! Friendly fast service. Thanks for fast amazing food! We ordered from two other trucks and this was our favorite by far.

**I should mention that the owner did refund the cost of the sandwich after this review which was a laudable gesture, especially considering that the review was already posted and that fact would not be reflected on Unilocal**
In response to the owner, it was not a french dip but a chicken sandwich. It was also definitely due to that sandwich (exact same timing we have ever had food poisoning before in hours) and since we were an early customer, could have been a different batch of chicken than others received throughout the day. I would want to know as a customer when this happens as I have had horrible repurcussions from another restaurant that refused to be accountable and was shut down several times, but it was not reflected on Unilocal.There was just an article in the SacBee about the questionable food safety of trucks and this should be taken as a caution by the owner to take personal responsibility for the food being served.

This truck has so much potential to be great. But unfortunately, although they have good flavors and creative flavor combos, the quality in the execution is not there. And the prices are quite honestly exorbitant for food truck food.
We got an opportunity to try these guys at the grand opening of Tilted Mash Brewing this past weekend. Lots of people drinking beer and these guys are the only food truck parked there. That makes it easy. So I go onto Unilocal to see what to order, and to my dismay, they are not rated very well. Bummer. Oh well, captive audience, right?
So my friend and I order the Dirty Bird and three French Dips. The French Dips were well received, although it seems like the au jus was the highlight. My Dirty Bird had so much potential! Fried chicken with hot sauce and coleslaw on a bun. Come on! But the chicken breast was kinda small with a lot of breading to make up for it, and then it was overcooked! Eating slightly burned fried chicken is like comparing pictures of me today in my thirties to pictures of myself at 22. It’s not terrible, but I remember how AMAZING it CAN be! And when it comes to the «sriracha» fries, it is a misnomer. They are not fries covered with spicy delectable sauce. They are fries with spicy seasoning salt on them. Another bummer.
My biggest issue with this food truck is the price. When you provide people food but not a place to sit (as is the nature of food truck eating) you can’t nickel and dime them for everything. My Dirty Bird chicken sandwich was $ 12, plus another $ 5 (???) for fries. That is $ 17 for just my meal, no drink. I have a hard time spending almost $ 40 on a meal of essentially burgers and fries for just my husband and I. Especially when I can go to a brick and mortar store around the corner and get better quality for less — plus a place to sit.
All in all, I would try this place again, but I am hoping they step their game up and make this good food truck GREAT! And perhaps look into adjusting their prices to be more competitive with the other food trucks out there!

Great food. Caught them at Amador Brewery for a naughty mermaid and dirty bird. Excellent spices and slaw on the sandwiches.

I really like this food truck a lot. I’m excited when they’re at my favorite local breweries. They use fresh ingredients, the staff is super friendly and the end product leaves you wanting seconds. They’re locally owned and the reuben sandwich is off the hook delish! The prices are very reasonable in comparison to other food trucks I’ve tried. Come check ‘em out!

* edited — as I have been accused of libel by whom I can only assume is the owner, I would like to make clear that this review constitutes my opinion of this food truck.
I got the Reuben, which was labeled «Best in Sac.» I believe the «Best in Sac» label must have been self-​proclaimed because my was so greasy and the meat so fatty that I couldn’t even eat it. $ 14 for that and a small fry, of which most were moldy is not a good deal. I will likely not try this food truck again.

Just tried the pulled pork. It came with fries that were pretty good. But the sandwich wasn’t very good for several reasons. There is no way you could pick it up and eat it because the bun is so thick. Aren’t trucks for eating in the park and at events? I ate it open faced and just picked at the flavorless bread (needed a sharp knife).
The pork was almost ok, but it was chewy and stringy. It was drenched in sauce so who knows if it was slow smoked or not. There was a good portion of pork. The slaw ran out before the meat. Fries are the thin kind and the portion was big.
Their payment system prompted me for a tip. What? I walked up to the truck and stood on the sidewalk waiting for my food.
They didn’t have the cubano. I would’ve liked to have tried that but it would have probably had the same fat bun.

Way over priced! For $ 10.00 I got a pretty small pulled pork sandwich, which normally wouldn’t bother me because I usually eat small portions, but there was no side (an order of fries is like $ 8 alone) and the flavor just doesn’t justify the price! The coleslaw is mediocre at best but all together the taste is decent. Still not worth the price! I was in a hurry and they’re parked across the street from my building or I wouldn’t of even tried it for the price!

I tried this food truck because it was parked near my workplace. However, there was nobody else in line, which should have been a red flag. I looked at the menu and saw Mac & Cheese, which I normally love, and seasoned fries (the menu says they are seasoned with salt and pepper). At $ 8, the mac & cheese was a large portion. I’ll give them that, but it was salty. I normally enjoy salt, but it was not ideal for mac & cheese and the food temp was warm, not hot. The fries were also a large portion at $ 6, but were not hot (instead, they were lukewarm) and only salted (no pepper). So, for $ 14, I think I will have to pass on this food truck in the future.

I was extremely excited to try this at a vendor faire earlier today, it had a cute name and the food sounded good. It went downhill from there. I got «The Chicken», a $ 10 sandwich, pricey, especially considering it didn’t even come with fries, and was definitely a splurge for me. Cons of the sandwich: super thick bun, the bun was clearly old so it was hard to chew through, it was extremely dry, no sauce, no flavor, and I kept getting pieces of cartilage. Pros: I honestly can’t think of any. The only things on the sandwich were bread, chicken, and coleslaw, all of which were disappointing. I didn’t even finish my sandwich.

I don’t understand how anyone can say best rueben in Sacramento. The sandwich looked good but had the taste of liquid smoke flavoring. WT!!! Corned Beef is cured, not smoked! I had the sandwich for lunch and could not get the liquid smoke taste out of my mouth until dinner. I would have been more upset if I would have had to pay $ 13 but it was at a function where the company picked up the bill. More expensive then a sit down restaurant. Disappointed and still looking for a decent Rueben in this town.

Just ate a reuben. Very disappointed for paying $ 13.00. You would think that they would at least add in fries or a salad at that price. Had a burnt taste, meat over cooked big time. Corned beef should be pink this is brown. Served on sour dough not rye. And it was somewhat soggy.
Won’t be giving them a high five or telling anybody it was good, I will tell them not worth the money.

If I was to say the Reuben was great I would be underselling, best in Sacramento. But really my go to is the Cubano, there is a smoky quality to the ham that is set off by the pickled onions that pairs extremely well. If the crew is making potato chips grab those with either sandwich and you will be in heaven.

Best Reuben in Sacramento. I’ve eaten off the truck many times and the quality is always consistent and the staff very friendly.

Extremely expensive. Staff told me I could sandwich without sauce but after I paid stated they could not do that. Potato salad tasted like it was out of a carton that cost less than they charged for a small scoop. Veggie Philly was soggy on the bottom and dry on the top for $ 11 I expected to be wowed but I was sadly disappointed by such mediocre food. I will never spend money here again.
