we were craving a dessert and found this place on yelp and decided to head over. it is located in front of the grocery market across from the eastridge mall. the churro can come with different fillings like custard, but we opted for the original. when we got there, the lady made our churro fresh. it was PIPING hot when we got it and SO GOOD. it was coated generously with the sugar and cinnamon. definitely want to go back and try it with different fillings. we ended up just eating it outside in front of her stand since it can get a little messy. 10/10 recommend read more

After going to mass today my mom was craving churros, fresh churros, not the hard frozen kind that vendors have sitting behind a glass enclosure then reheat and serve. Yuck! Frozen churros should be arrested for false impersonation. I was going to stop by Cardenas Markets to get Tres Estrellas Churro mix which is like bisquick for churros and make some at home. I highly recommend this mix and it even comes with a piping bag but you should have some experience of making choux pastry dough since the directions (for me anyways) have always been wrong. However, since I'm planning on baking lots of cookies tomorrow I decided to jump on Yelp Bay Area to find a nearby churro vendor. We could've gone down to Our Lady of Guadalupe Church or Christmas in the Park where there is one good churro stand down by Quetzalcoatl. Again, the other stands have those fake frozen impersonators but since I didn't want to search for parking I decided to go with the Yelp recommendation of Churros El Guero in front of Fresco Market next to Eastridge. This is also a very busy spot but we were able to score a parking spot right away. Unfortunately, the churro guy had just arrived and his oil was still heating up so we were patiently people watching. This is when we noticed lots of people going over to this haphazard outdoor dining spot. This was not the ideal spot to visit since the weather forecast has been falsely taunting us with rain all day. Since it was now noon we decided it was best to eat real food before munching on something sweet. I had never been to Elma's Taqueria which is connected to Fresco Market probably because I don't like that market. I went in once when they first opened and it stunk. Literally and figuratively. Nope, I'll pass. The line for Elma's was impressive so we strolled up to the outdoor window and looked up at the menu. It's basically Birria everything. Birria de Res (beef) and Birria de Chivo (goat) in a bowl, tacos, quesadilla, quesabirrias, etc...and daily specials including Menudo today. Since it was packed we shared a table with a gentleman from Michoacan while waiting for our order who said this is the best birria anywhere. He said even in Michoacan this is would be the best birria. High praise indeed. My verdict. It was good. Well seasoned, juicy and generous portions. I could only eat one taco so we packed up the rest to bring home and walked back over to the churro stand. Remember the churros? I did. In fact I remembered hiring El Guero to do some events for me in the past where he brings his pot of oil and makes fresh churros on the spot. Then you can have him fill it with chocolate, strawberry, caramel or other fillings. $3 each or 4 for $10. We opted for 2 originals, 1 chocolate and 1 strawberry. We gave him the cash, brought them home and plopped down to enjoy our fresh churros and we were happy. End of story. read more

Amazing fresh churros! I have been on the hunt to try all the churro stands in SJ and while researching, I found Churros El Guero on yelp! Located right by Fresco Supermarket, the stand is located under a red tent. We went around 3pm but I recommend calling just to confirm the hours. We got 4 churros for $10: vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, and caramel. Card and cash are accepted. The churros were cooked well - crispy, not oily, and coated with the right amount of cinnamon and sugar. Our personal favorites were the chocolate and the caramel but the vanilla and strawberry were tasty as well. Delicious churros and very friendly people working the stand. I would definitely come back to Churros El Guero! read more

I am a churros connoisseur and will drive up to 45 minutes to get my hands on some good ones. This is authentic and reminds me of the churros you get in Mexico. read more

Saw this stand while walking around looking at Christmas lights in the willow glen area and the smell just got us and we had to order. We got 3 for 10 dollars. The flavors we got were chocolate, cajeta and original. Never had cajeta but my bf said it was good and Cajeta is the best. Just thinking about it makes me wish I had some more. Service was quick and the churros were perfectly cooked. Crispy and crunchy on the outside and soft and chewy inside. Can't wait to have this again. My only wish is that the churros were longer and that rather that the churros being filled have the sauce in a container to dip. Some bites have more sauce and some don't. I feel a dip would make each bit more even. read more

This place is so dangerous! I think my company has invited them back to the office 3 or 4x in the last couple years and I thank them. These Churros are so fire! They have multiple flavors that you can fill them up with: caramel, strawberry, vanilla, chocolate or just the regular cinnamon on the outside. They give us 2 every time and it's free for me, of course since the company pays for it, but sadly I elected for only 1 today because summers coming up! LOL I've only had this at work so unsure where they are normally located, but you def gotta come get one of these. read more

My kids were craving a little dessert after dinner, so we stopped by this churro stand outside Fresco Supermarket. They were selling 4 churros for $10. The churros weren't made fresh to order--they had already been fried and were sitting on the rack. The staff member helping us coated each one in cinnamon sugar and filled two with chocolate. Even though they weren't made to order, the churros were still warm, and my kids really enjoyed them. Surprisingly, they even tasted good a few hours later. read more

THEEE spot for churros in South Bay. They're made fresh to order, $3 for 1 or $10 for 4. The guy manning the truck was very friendly and the churros came out fast. My personal favorite is the caramel filled churro, followed by the vanilla. I've tried all and would skip chocolate and strawberry, those were def on the artificial-tasting side. But other than that.. these churros are incredible. They're freshly made so they're hot when you get them, crisp exterior and soft insides. My one complaint is that they're a bit messy since the fillings get all over the paper bag, so it would be nice to have a small plastic bag over or something so the hands don't get sticky. Overall, would highly recommend. I wish I could come here more often! read more

Got lucky and snagged a "Too Good to Go" order from here and was extremely pleased. We got one of each type of churro, and each one was delicious. It was made fresh, and service was friendly. The store they are parked at was closed during the pick up window, so it was a quick park and pick up. Whether it's a too good to go save or anytime we're in the area, would love to return read more

I got to try Churros El Guero since they were at the Sazon Latin Food Festival in Alameda just this past weekend. They didn't have any signs up about their flavors or prices, but when I stopped to ask, they confirmed it's $3 per churro, and there were several fillings available - strawberry, vanilla, caramel, chocolate. I opted for chocolate, which they were able to get for me right away. I really enjoyed the churro - it was fresh, crispy without being unpleasantly hard, and the chocolate inside was gooey. I would note the chocolate tastes more like chocolate sauce or syrup - think of something like Hershey's syrup - rather than like a chocolate bar or cocoa. However, it was still quite good, and $3 is pretty reasonably priced nowadays for a churro. I'll certainly keep an eye out for them the next time I'm in San Jose or see them at an event. read more

Churros El Guero - Chocolate filled churro - Desserts Near Me - San Jose, California

I'm SHOOKETH that Churros El Guero was the stand out star vendor of our wedding this weekend, and had to gush about them immediately to let the world know! Summary: We had a wedding of about 150 people and served churros as one of our late night snacks. Guests were RAVING about these... to the point of stopping me on the dance floor to be like "dude wtf why are the churros so good" and "hey man! churros are fire- better than Disneyland!" instead of gushing about my marriage bwahaha. Churro Offerings: The churros were made fresh at the cart and were hot and crispy. They served 4 flavor choices for our guests: chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and caramel. They even made heart shaped churros for us newlyweds which were AMAZING! They also tasted so fresh and in my opinion were truly better than any Disneyland churro or anything I've tried in Spain/Mexico! Note for those hiring them for weddings or events: GET THE CART instead of the tray of churros delivered! This was such a crowdpleaser and the freshness and customization of each churro is what made guests really happy and excited. Business: Carlos was very easy to work with. We went back and forth via email to work out the logistics and he was able to generate an invoice so I understood exactly when, how, and how much to pay them. The cart arrived on schedule and served churros without a hitch. When I hit my churro limit, they also allowed me to purchase more in real time via some quick calls to Carlos, which was nice of them. Appreciate their flexibility here as guests loved this so much that they went back for seconds!! Pricing: Pricing was extremely fair given the late night hour of our service. The final price of bringing a whole cart to make ready-to-order churros was much cheaper than asking our venue to put out milk and cookies on a tray and way cheaper than getting most other dessert bar offerings catered in. Overall I highly recommend this place to anyone in need of a churro fix, especially those considering them for weddings. Thank you Churros El Guero for making our wedding night so memorable and delicious! I'll definitely hire them in the future and can't wait to eat their churros every anniversary! read more

Listen: The churros are amazing but the hours are inconsistent, they listed as opened on everyday but they don't open on some days. It's hard to know because they don't update their hours or post a psa about it. It's annoying that I drove to the supermarket on a Friday, just expected them not to be here. read more

Came to their food truck for an evening snack and their churros didn't disappoint! Got four for $10 and it was a steal! The churros were nice and crispy but also chewy on the inside. Very filling, and had the right amount of cinnamon sugar coating. Service was quick. I do think their location being in the Fresco parking lot is odd though; most people don't hang around and were driving up to order, then drive off. read more

We love Churros El Guero! I contacted them via email in regards to allergy information and they quickly responded and confirmed that the original cinnamon sugar churro was vegan! We headed towards the cart outside of Fresco. We went on a Friday around 5pm. No line, fast, and wonderful customer service! We tried the original and the strawberry churros, and they were absolutely delicious! Fresh, warm, tasty, and perfect texture. We had just tried churros at the Santa Barbara Zoo and these were by far much better than any zoo churro. We were so happy with the service and the food, and will definitely be back again. So nice to have a tasty vegan dessert option here in San Jose. We didn't catch the name of the man working there, but he was so kind! read more

Best churros in San Jose. They are loacted in the fresco supermarket near eastridge. Overall 5/5 churros. Churros were great, great taste, crispy and soft in the inside. Perfect amount of seasoning on the churros. I tried the filled churros also. Perfect sweetness and taste. They also do different shapes of churros. Can't explain how nice the people were. Great people with great positive vibes. We called asking where were they located at and I believe it was the owner but he was really kind over the phone. He gave me and my girlfriend a free heart churro. That was so kind of him doing. GREAT PEOPLE WITH GREAT VIBES. Loacted on a trailer. read more

Found this dessert stand at the Viva CalleSJ event this past Sunday and couldn't resist its delicious offerings of heart shaped churros covered in cinnamon and sugar and stuffed churros filled with various flavored sauces and creams (caramel, strawberry, vanilla, chocolate). I, of course, got the chocolate stuffed churro, and it was fresh tasting, crispy on the outside, light and fluffy inside, coated in cinnamon and sugar, chocolate filling oozing out of the fried pastry, a party for my taste buds. All for just three bucks, plus they accepted credit card payments. Service was sufficient with minimal wait time. Quick and convenient, and a yummy treat. I was a happy customer :) read more

Really good fresh churros. She fries right in front of you. The filling is what takes it over the edge into yumminess , must try

They are selling freshly made churros, food truck-style, located in front of Fresco Supermarket. Once the churros have been deep-fried, they let them cool down a little bit before dipping them in sugar and piping the sauce. - They have 5 flavors: Original, caramel, vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry (I have asked what's the most popular favour: it's caramel :) - $3 each or $10 for 4. Cash only! My personal favorite is the vanilla. It adds some creaminess and pairs well together. Great for a quick snack or satisfying a sweet tooth. Make sure to have napkins or wet tissues with you! read more

Delicious churros made freshly to order. Was a little shocked to hear cash-only when other reviews revealed that they do take credit cards, but I didn't press. Think the prices were 1 for $3 or 4 for $10. Got all four flavors of filled churros and the caramel was definitely the most delicious, with vanilla being a close second. Strawberry is a bit too artificial and the chocolate is just too .... Drab. There's no pop of flavor! Must try at least once! Eat while hot! read more

An updated review. We've used Churros El Guero for my daughter's 2nd birthday. We decided to utilize them again for her 4th birthday but instead of the full service we opted for a party tray for March 15th. Unfortunately, my communication and attentiveness was not as great this time around. I reached out several ways, Instagram, email, and directly through phone/text. It took about 7 days for them to respond to my first inquiry - after finally getting a hold of Carlos we were able to book and he answered all my questions. I paid in FULL and ordered 150 plain churros with 75 2oz cups filled with filling. It was the day prior to my event and I confirmed via text that we were all set for us to pick up at 2:30 pm. It was around maybe 12-1pm I received a call not from Carlos but from another colleague of his. That they will not be at location, 2217 quimby rd san jose California 95122, they would be at another event then. So they had asked if there was another way. Or time to pick up. She also offered uber/delivery. I agreed to the delivery and shared location. Through text she confirmed my order and then quotes me a price. I told her I've already paid in full to Carlos - apparently she wasn't aware of that but I keep record and shared my payment with her. Although she did apologize for that, I think this was very unprofessional. It comes to around 3:30 pm and well apparently no one was picking up the order - we were busy setting up for our party the luckily my brother was in that area and I could send him to pick up where ever they might be. My brother picked up from said person at almost 4:00 pm! We agreed I'd pick up by 2:30 pm. Our party started at 4:30pm!!!!!! According to my brother she was awaiting his arrival not at a store front but in her vehicle and just met him in the parking lot... I reached out to Carlos that same day left a message and text about the situation. To get some sort of reimbursement because that service was not at all what we had agreed upon. I still have not received a response. As far as quality of the churros - I feel as if because of the delay they became a bit soggy/soft. Again because our original pick up time was at 2:30 pm I feel as if these were made early and because they couldn't get anyone to deliver they stayed covered the whole time and so therefor it caused it to loose its crispy exterior. My guests also mentioned they noticed some batches were overcooked and others were perfect. read more

Churros! Who doesn't love churros? We don't get out to this area of San Jose very often but we happened to be a few miles away for dinner and I had heard good things about this little mini food truck parked in front of a grocery store so we cruised on over. We chose one of each filled flavor - strawberry, chocolate, vanilla, caramel ... plus a plain regular churro. Since we were here, we figured we might as well try them all... you know.. for science. Fresh dough is dropped right in when you order and fried up nice and hot, then tossed with cinnamon sugar and filled with your choice of the flavors above or left plain as you wish. In a few minutes you have a paper bag full of churro treasures. Warm, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and SO SO good. The gentleman working the cart is quick with a joke and a smile and the churros are reasonably priced. My favorite was just the plain churro, with the chocolate and strawberry being second and third runner up. The caramel had a good flavor but was a bit too sweet for me and I didn't get much vanilla flavor from the vanilla filling so I would stick with the others next time. There's something for everyone though! Churros for all! read more

i can only review their catering services, not the actual location, but next time i'm back in the Bay I'll definitely drop in for a churro cuz they are DELICIOUS. so great served warm, and also really yummy with any of the fillings! i have actually worked with the churros el guero team for 2 events. one being my wedding (rented a truck -- btw, this was cheaper than a wedding cake and WAY more fun in my humble opinion) and another being my nephews first birthday party (churro tray catering option)! firstly, the team is super responsive and got back to be within at least a day or 2 of each email -- really helpful when planning big events that you want to go well! not only that, but they are super communicative and happy to clear up any confusion i had on my end. lastly, i want to mention that the order i placed for my nephews birthday was delayed -- i ordered 80 heart shaped churros, and while I wasn't able to attend the party, they were able to coordinate with my sister & cousin seamlessly! despite being delayed, they were thoroughly enjoyed. the party goers actually told me they thought there were way more than 80 churros in the trays too, so maybe they threw in a few more as an apology for running behind. thank you, churros el guero!! read more

Nothing beats a freshly made churros, still hot to touch, melt in the mouth, and the chocolate filling to die for. I am sure it was not good for my health. But since life is short anyway... It's a food truck. I found it in De Anza Flea Market; every 1st Saturday of the month. read more

Quick service and great churros! The cajeta ran out by the time I came by, but would stop again!

This is a food truck selling just churros. They are located near Eastridge mall and almost in front if the entrance of Fresno supermarket. You can park anywhere in this supermarket parking lot and walk to the entrance to find the churro truck. Ambiance: it's outdoor and there's no seating so I just eat in my car. Make sure to have some extra napkins to wipe off your hands The owners are very friendly and polite. I got 4 churros: original, chocolate, strawberry and vanilla. They were all fresh and delicious but chocolate was my favorite. read more

My company keeps catering churros from this food truck, and the churros are amazing every single time. I've tried all flavors by now and have to say that that the vanilla and chocolate ones are the best. The churros are always warm and freshly made and have a good crunch. And the amount of powdered sugar on the outside is just right. read more

We had Churros El Guero cater at our event on 4/19. They were a big hit! All our guests loved their churros so much. They arrived to start their set up on time. They had a permit and mat that our venue had requested. Depending on which package option you choose, the rates may start at $3 per churro. Carlos, the owner, was very accommodating and helpful. He is responsive via text and email. I hope to book them again for our next event! read more

Extraordinary churros from the most casual of places (let's be real, you're probably getting the most authentic food from those sorts of spots). Freshly fried on the spot at a low price right next to the Fresco supermarket, you can run your grocery errands and finish off with a bang or just drive all the way to nab that sugary glory, because it's so worth it. Parking is fairly trivial given its proximity to the supermarket. We had a young lady manning the stall when we went. There's also no menu, but you can order them in batches of 3 or 4. I couldn't make out the price for 3, but for 4 for $10. Fillings can be injected into the middle of the churros for free (chocolate, caramel, vanilla, strawberry). Unfortunately chocolate was broken, so we doubled up on the caramel. *absolutely heavenly*. The freshly fried churros were just the right crisp on the outside and lightly tossed in some sugar. The fillings weren't distractingly sweet and blended in really nicely with the churros making for a very nice mixture of aroma from the filling and a melty churro core that's still soft in all the right ways. This'd be so dangerous if it were closer, but this'll definitely be where I'm coming back for more when that itch strikes again. read more
