7 Best Food Trucks near Goleta

“Elubia’s Kitchen is a great, authentic Guatemalan spot in Isla Vista. It’s truly a hidden gem. I had the pupusas and they were excellent. Fresh and served the right way with incredible salsa.
They also have really good combo options. You can tell the food is made with care and tradition. I will definitely be ordering some of their pickup catering options next time we have a big gathering at home - the prices are very reasonable.
The best part is the family behind it. They are genuinely kind people, and that comes through in the experience. Elubia has created something truly amazing! Definitely worth stopping by.“

“Taqueria Mena is one my favorite food trucks here in sb, it’s one of those spots that feels really authentic. The food tastes amazing and the portions are solid for the price. The meat is flavorful and good. Everything comes out fresh and hot. The atmosphere is kinda sketchy tbh, but that’s part of the charm. The staff is friendly and the they work pretty fast even when it’s busy.“

“Best place for good food!“

“Super friendly staff here make wonderful espressos and Sunkist lattes. Despite the down vote and biblical verse quoting of another reviewer, the Mission supports this business and this business supports the Mission. The owner couldn't be more kind. It's so nice to go up and enjoy the Rose garden and get a coffee on a beautiful morning.“

“Overall ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (4/5)

Environment ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆
Casual, self-service setup.

Food ⭐⭐⭐⭐½☆
• Lobster Roll + Uni ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Excellent. The bread was buttered and toasted perfectly, and both the lobster and uni were very fresh.
Honestly, this combination is hard to mess up
• Fries ⭐⭐⭐☆☆
Too oily and too dry at the same time. Not enjoyable

Will I come back?
Yes—for the lobster roll, not the fries.“
