Best Food Trucks in Santa Barbara

Santa Barbara is truly a special place. If you've never visited this sparkling coastal community a few hours north of Los Angeles, you're missing out. This area features a relaxed pace compared to the city, and some of the prettiest beaches in the entire state. The University of California has an outpost here, and the Montecito area just south of the city continues to draw big money developers and celebrities lining up to build second homes. At midday, State Street awakens as the center of the community, a fun place to stroll, dine and shop. The Farmers Market features amazing produce and wine grown right here in the surrounding fertile soils, Santa Barbara is truly a foodie's paradise! Locally sourced ingredients, prime wines and fresh seafood combine for some truly memorable dining experiences. The Santa Barbara food truck scene here is just ramping up, but here are two of our preferred vendors: Ventura BBQ Co. serves award winning Tri-Tip and Pulled Pork Sandwiches paired with delicious sides, and McConnell's Fine Ice Creams which features Ice Cream that's been made the right way since 1949. Get yourself a double scoop on a warm summer day!

They just definitely know how to do the Birrea, I spelled that wrong I'm sure, and I ordered something that had two tortillas with the meat on the inside and some cheese, but it was Beria quesadillas. Maybe I can't remember but the tortillas! Those were the most amazing tortillas I've ever had. It was almost like they were cornbread, and then just the flavor in the texture it was just so good. And everybody there really likes good food so they were very excited! Whenever I left because I had to get back home for work purposes, my friends were literally scraping the bottom of all of the containers and we're not leaving until it was done lol

The truck showed up on time, it was clean inside, they were very polite and served incredible food all night long - with a smile. We highly recommend Gonzalez Food Truck for anyone hosting an event.

The chicken wrap is so good I don't want to share the other half with my husband, and the beef and cheese empanada is one of the best I've ever had!

flavor was awesome, but they didn't follow my special instructions, and it's not much food for the money there was not nearly enough salsa for the amount of chips. otherwise it was very good but for the price that's not something i would eat very often
