Chef Rodrigo and his Santa Elena's crew catered our wedding reception out of their food truck. Leading up to the event, Chef Rodrigo was willing to work with our budget, had timely communication, and allowed us to schedule a tasting. We loved the food from the start, however, everything surpassed expectations day of. Our guests were blown away with the meal, sharing how delicious the dinner and appetizers were. If you're considering Santa Elena's catering for a private event, or even looking for your dinner plans, please do yourself a favor and go get some wood smoked Mexican cuisine. We are no longer local in Fort Collins, however, you can bet we will be on the hunt for Santa Elena's food truck or restaurant whenever we return. Photos by PJ Van Schalkwyk Photography

We booked Santa Elenas for our wedding party this past October and we were thrilled with their food and service! As a Celiac, it can be tough to find a food truck that makes GF options. Santa Elenas worked with us to make a custom menu that worked for me. Their tacos are delicious and our guests raved about how good the food was at our party. Rodrigo is wonderful. We highly recommend Santa Elenas, particularly for a special event and for GF folks!

We used Santa Elenas for a CSU graduation party (2025). They did a terrific job. First, the food is amazing. They smoke their meats which gives the tacos a unique taste. Rodrigo, who runs the business, was a chef in Mexico City. The food is just better than most places- its really good. Everyone at the party commented about how great the food was. On top of that Rodrigo was responsive, friendly, professional. I couldn't recommend this place enough- for private parties or around town (I think they post a calendar about where they plan to be).

Absolutely delicious! The owner (Rodrigo?) was incredibly nice and clearly very knowledgeable about food. Prices were cheap, food was great, the owner was passionate and nice. What more could you ask for? *Had the elk chorizo tostada and burger with fries

Located in Equinox and across the stage. Interesting taco flavors that blend well together, along with a generous quesadilla option and for desert, flan. Food was good, a bit pricey though.
