“The menu had a variety of options, from classic fish ceviche Camaros to more exotic choices like Aguachiles red/green. What sets this food truck apart is the freshness of their ingredients. You can taste the quality of the seafood, and it's evident that they source their produce carefully.One of my favorites is their fish tacos. The batter is perfectly crispy, and the fish inside is flaky and moist. The portion size is generous, making it a satisfying meal that won't leave you hungry.What surprised me the most was the affordability of the menu items. Given the quality and freshness of the seafood, I expected higher prices, but this food truck manages to strike a perfect balance between taste and value. It's evident that the owners are passionate about providing a memorable dining experience without breaking the bank.“
“Where can I start, this is by far some of the best Peruvian food ever! Always hot and fresh, their hot sauce is amazing. Just a little but it goes a long way, super savory. If you're looking for something tasty this is the place to go, and they cook pretty fast which is a plus. Everything in their menu is good!“
“My first time here. It's dinner, I'm hungry and I got a $20 tip, so here I am. The place is very clean, the service is friendly and the food is tasty. As I sitting here more & more people are showing up. It seems popular so others like the food as well.“
“I went here for taco Tuesday ?. It was my first time trying this restaurant. The staff was very nice and made me feel welcome. I ordered 10 Carne asada street tacos for $1.50 each, a small side of refried beans and chips. Everything was so yummy. I'll definitely return here again for taco ? Tuesday.“
“So good! I've been here a number of times now and everything I've tried has been wonderful. I especially love the duck, the garlic snow pea leaves, the onion lamb, and any of the salt-and-pepper entrees. Portions are huge. Staff are friendly and efficient, and it's a nice, open casual place to hang out, talk, and enjoy a great meal.“
“Took a friend to lunch for her birthday, and we had the lunch special..entree rice and beans.. a small cup of soup was included as well as chips and salsa.I have been here several times and have always liked the food. Today, I thought the salsa was a bit more watery than in the past. Our chicken tortilla soup had neither chicken or tortilla but was delicious with fresh vegetables .our entree was served at the same time and was not hot.. but was good, so we went ahead and ate . Our server was friendly and attentive as always..will try lunch again sometime. Hopefully, food will be better .. I like to support small family businesses.“
“One of the best taco shops I’ve been to in recent years. I forgot how good fresh chips could taste, lol salsa is really good. I’ve had a couple dishes there one was the albondigas and the other shrimp tacos both really good but the thing about this place is that the owners are really nice Community oriented and customer service oriented. will definitely be back“
“Rafaela’s is the most authentic and delicious Mexican restaurant. I have tried most of the dishes and all of them are done with a very delicious flavor ?????it’s a very clean place and excellent customer service prices are very very affordable, I think is low considering the amount of food you get in each plate. I strongly recommend this place for real Mexican food?? ?Vegetarian options: You can try most dishes without meat and they’ll be delicious.“
“Luckily for us the parking lot was empty but I can see there being an issue on a busier day. The restaurant itself is in the corner of a shopping center and you would not think it is what it was, you walk in and it's marvelous.! Open seating/ bar seating. The attending staff said we can seat ourselves and someone will be right over. It wasn't very crowded and our server came over took our drinks order and left menus. We ordered and chatted. Food came over. Really exceptional! All was delicious and tasty! It has been a long time since I've had actual realistic Mexican food. I really recommend and will definitely return.“
“This place is a great representation of tasty Mexican food. My first time here at this Oceanside location Don employee was helpful to informed me on full menu and tacos was fantastic, chicken quesadilla wow ! Delicious The taste was amazing the tortillas are freshly made, so delicious and the portion size was just right. 10 out of 10. Bueno“
“Appetizer Thai Fresh rolls with shrimp. The rice paper wrap was beautifully sticky just how it should be. Salad was fresh, cold & crisp. Unmistakable Thai basil flavor with crisp assorted veggies.Sauces were sweet thick, peanut heaven. Not too thick though. Just right.As an entree I had Panang Curry Chicken. Now let's talk about spice level. They offer 0-10 scale for spice level. I ordered my usual 3x so that would be 30. Yes THIRTY. After a certain level the great does not increase, but the flavour of the peppers shines through. The Panang sauce was a nice medium brown and the peppers add a tinge of floating red oil once the peppers release their goodness into the sauce. Green beans & bell peppers were crisp and delectible. I was so pleased I forgot to snap a picture of my entree. Sorry folks.Wait staff is pleasant, efficient and friendly. Decor is a little lacking in that Thai touch of elephant statues & paintings, gold accents, and pictures of the Homeland. But decor is near, clean, and effective for a smallish space.Overall a very enjoyable experience!!“
“Update: 11/11/2023 the 5 roles tacos order was less than stellar the tortilla tasted like the taco was made from old stale tortillas and the filling wasn't all that great either. Too bad their is nothing fine about this place.The environment is too loud to even talk amongst your party and their is a bunch of drunk people everywhere even drunk people pissing outaide in the vegetation on the parking lot where there is women and children walking by.Truly a terrible place to bring a family too.By the way did I mention their salsas are terrible? Well yeah they are absolute garbage material.I enjoyed eating at this grub spot with my family. Everything was tasting delicious! They sell beer there too. You can watch the partidos here any major sporting event is happening here. They also have love bands that play on Fridays. You can hang out with friends and just drink $1 Coronitas. They even have beer specials here. Back to the food my fajitas were great, the mojarra frita Tilapia was great. So was the bean and cheese burrito. The drinks were good the salsa bar had a great variety of good tasting salsas.“
“Giant portions for a reasonable price, taste is classic Chinese cuisine and it’s consistent. Family owned and operated, support local!Worth the premium price as it feeds myself for multiple meals, and I eat a lot lolGive it a try next time you’re in vista“
