What’s happening to the food trucks at Enzo’s Table in Clovis? They’re not going far
If you go to the Clovis corner near Enzo’s Table where food trucks have been serving tacos and other food for years, you’re going to see a ripped-up parking lot.
The property is in the process of being cleared to make way for a new shopping center and housing development.
So what about the food trucks?
No worries, they’re relocating nearby. Across the street, in fact.
Starting Friday, the trucks — ranging from Taco Boys and its asada tacos to Ba Tô Vietnamese Fusion Food Truck and its bao buns — will begin selling at the southwest corner of Willow and Shepherd avenues.
That’s where the P-R Farms packing house and office is that’s run by the same family that owns Enzo’s Table.
Food trucks will generally be parked there starting Wednesdays, with “the real fun” happening and multiple trucks parking there Fridays and Saturdays, said Vincent Ricchiuti, part of the family that runs the farm and store.
For specific times and truck info, keep an eye on Enzo’s Table’s Instagram stories, or follow the trucks that park there on social media.
The family has planted trees on the new site and is working on getting tables and chairs. There are no public restrooms.
The Avenue
As for Enzo’s Table, the store selling locally made olive oil and other other goodies has moved to The Row at Heritage Grove on the northwest corner of the intersection, near Saizon restaurant.
The demolition at the former Enzo’s corner is making way for a new housing and shopping center called The Avenue. It’s a partnership between the Parnagians and the Ricchiutis, two big farming and packing families in town.
Similar to The Row, it will have about 256 apartments, 12,000 square feet of office space and about 30,000 square feet of retail and restaurants.
The parking lot was ripped up beginning Tuesday. The Enzo’s Table building will be dismantled. An agreement to move it for another use in the area but outside the county is in the works.
The family’s firewood sales operation and the seasonal Christmas tree lot will also move across the street near the food trucks.
One longtime truck you won’t find at the new location is Roma Italian Street Cuisine. That’s because the truck — a regular on the corner for years — is opening a brick-and-mortar restaurant next month at the southwest corner of Chestnut and Shepherd avenues.
