Santos Padilla

Owner, Doctor Flavors

With over 20 years of experience in the food industry, I am a self taught chef who has built my craft through working with different food trucks, exploring diverse culinary traditions, and learning from a wide range of food cultures. My passion lies in bringing different flavors, techniques, and influences together to create something unique of my own. Now I’m bringing that knowledge, creativity, and experience into my own food truck. I love cooking and I love making people happy with my food.

When to Book

Recommended lead time
15–30 days before your event

The further ahead you book, the more trucks you'll have to choose from. Planning ahead is the best way to secure your top pick.

That said, shorter timelines work too—we book events just days out all the time. You'll just have fewer options to choose from.

Busy seasons: Spring and Fall are our most popular times in Riverside, so booking early gives you the best selection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can't find the answer you're looking for? Reach out to our team.

What does Doctor Flavors serve?
Doctor Flavors serves Tacos, Mexican and Sandwiches.Popular menu items include Birria Grilled Cheese, Birria Plate and Birria Ramen.Most servings run about $14 before tax.The full menu is above; per-serving pricing is quoted when you build your order.
Is there a minimum order or guest count?
Yes, Doctor Flavors has a minimum order of $750, which works out to roughly 56 servings at this menu's prices. This minimum covers essential costs including food preparation, staffing and setup time. For smaller gatherings, consider the attendee-pay option where guests purchase their own meals.
What is included in the catering price?
Your quote from Doctor Flavors includes food preparation, serving supplies (plates, utensils, napkins), the truck's staff, and setup and breakdown. Some trucks charge a travel fee depending on how far the venue is; the truck will let you know if one applies. Per-serving pricing includes Food Truck Club's service fee; sales tax is added and the complete total is shown before you confirm.
How far in advance should I book Doctor Flavors?
Fifteen to thirty days gives you the best shot at your first-choice date, and shorter timelines work too. Food trucks in Riverside book up fastest in spring and fall, and events with 100+ guests benefit from a little extra notice for menu planning and staffing.
What types of events does Doctor Flavors cater?
Doctor Flavors is new to Food Truck Club, so there are no platform bookings to show yet. Corporate lunches, employee appreciation days, community festivals, school and university events, and private celebrations around Riverside are all bookable from this page.
Do you offer vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or allergy-conscious options?
Doctor Flavors lists vegetarian options on its profile. Include a count for each in your booking request so the truck preps enough, and flag any allergies at the same time.
Do I need to provide any utilities (power or water)?
Usually not. Most food trucks arrive with their own generator, water tank, and cooking equipment, so a flat, accessible parking spot of roughly 12 by 25 feet is all they need. Some trailers and dessert carts do run on an outlet, so mention what your venue offers and Doctor Flavors will confirm any hookups before the event.
What happens in case of bad weather or cancellation?
Rescheduling is the usual answer when weather turns, and we work with you and the truck to find a date. If the event has to be cancelled, the refund follows the cancellation policy above.
