4 Gringos is a revolución! Not only is it the first taco truck, it also serves enlightened tacos…read more This is no TacoBell-style fredagstaco with old ground beef, grated Norvegia and hard Eldorado shells. At 4 Gringos they are serious about their quality proteins: marinated beef, pulled pork, chicken, or refrito beans, and dress each one with its own character. The combination is explosive - each juicy bite is extremely flavorful, and anyone used to classic "Nor-Mex" would be dizzied by the spectra of taste of these badass tacos. The usual run of info: you can order big snack 2 soft-shell tacos for 70 noks (hipster), up to large meal 4 for 130 noks (fiesta) with a choice of beef/pork/chicken/beans, served out with a set of three/four toppings of their design. The beef is probably the best, the pulled pork second. They also have toasted quesadillas and mixed burritos. You eat outdoors without a table: while sitting around Youngstorget's fountain is nice in the summer, it can be less pleasant in cold winters. It's not perfect: the luscious toppings can be a little too messy for a one-handed taco dining, and make the taco shells too soggy to hold it together. Many trucks in USA serve up double tortillas for this exact problem, and they could have done that here. Also, I do think they are victims of their own creativity and being overly complex. Each taco had 5-6 flavors going on, and I prefer 4-5 for cleaner palate. Or, you should not order a fiesta of all 4 flavors, like I did! :) The food is competitive with some of the best sit-down tacos around. Taco Republica may have better-made cochinita pibil but they cost a fortune, whereas 4 Gringos is affordable and unique in giving what we the people need more of - a pioneering no-frills, damn good food truck.

Two tacos cost NOK 70. You can choose from chicken, beef and vegetarian (some kind of beans) at the moment, and pork is to be added to the menu shortly. They can also make it as a quesadillas. Additionally they offered chicken chili soup for NOK 60. When I ordered two tacos I got a little taster of the soup to warm myself on. A welcoming treat in the cold. They are open every Saturday now, but told me they plan to expand to Thursdays and Fridays as well, and in the long term they hope to stay open 7 days a week - all year.

It was also an affordable lunch, since food is so expensive when you're eating out in Oslo.

My only criticism is that there isn't a double Hawaii burger in the menu (although I might ask for…read moreone today). Great burger if you are looking for a quick 30-70 kroner bite that will absolutely fill you up. Get sauce, sprinkle the fry prefer on everything, and don't worry, because the line moves quick. I recommend The Hawaii burger with pineapple and the double cheeseburger. If you order the big burgers, don't forget napkins because the paper wrappers (which help keep the cost of that burger so low) are one-size-fits-"most" :-)

I'm giving 3 stars because the kid loves this KFC soft fried chicken type. I don't care for it…read more The chicken is seasoned well. Has a little spice. The gate/area is more ethnic (colored people) than I other areas that I have found. This made for a great walk through as we went shopping for various items. They have several exchange storefronts, cellular storefronts, corner stores that I appreciate and a baby shop outside of the tunnel. Inside there are tables with chairs and three semi-booths. Fountain drinks are PEPSI products. They are smaller cups...more like 10oz or less. I passed on the fries. I posted a newer picture so you guys can see the prices that are in effect now. They have increased by 10Krones. Did not try the pizza slice. Wanted to try the Indian food but it's served in a to-go tray and once I Converted it would cost me about $9 - 10USD... I decided I'll wait for the UK. I will admit...if this is the only fried chicken in town at this price point.. It makes me want to return and open a true Southern eatery with mac-n-cheese, sweet potato wedges and black eye peas and et al. All in all, if you're okay with that KFC original, sweaty soft skin type chicken then this is it. We did go back for a box to go, IN THE SAME DAY, and more colorful characters were present giving the history of the place and telling us the pizza is good. TO be honest: I just needed a fried chicken fix so now I'm back to looking for local/native Norwegian food. FYI: I think the location is SMART!

The quality of meat isn't all that great to be honest, but if you're desperate for fried chicken, then Maxin can relieve you of some of the pain. It's not even as good as KFCs, but it's so damn cheap! You can get a meal of 3 (undersized) piece of chicken for 65 kr! (including fries and drink!!) I don't know how they manage that - they must have gotten a tax exemption from the government for providing a community service to us fried chicken eaters. In summary, Max : McDonalds :: Maxin : KFC.
