Pleasantly surprised by what we would find. My nephew asked if the beef tongue was good but they weren't understanding so we just ordered one. He also got a carne asada taco and I got a mulita. They have a sala bar with cucumbers/radish, pickled onion and salsas. I had to try them all. They call you when it's ready. The beef tongue looked very interesting so we were skeptical about it. But after trying it, we were pleasantly surprised and he enjoyed it the most of the 2 tacos he got. The multia was only grilled on 1 side and the other tortilla was just slapped on top. All the other places we go to they grill both sides. It did have a nice cheese layer on it though. Good but would have preferred both sides grilled. Salas were good as well. I didn't get my receipt though but oh well. SYOY!

If you want solid fish tacos after 10:00pm, this place has got it. Less greasy than the taqueria down the street. Friendly and attentive service at the truck.

The fried fish and mozzarella sticks were tasty. The calamari was very soft, but in a odd way. The fries could have been more evenly seasoned but overall I'd eat here again.

Many years ago, I was a new transplant from Houston and discovered their food truck at a long-dead Off the Grid event, and now they have their excellent beer garden a couple blocks off the beaten path in Redwood City. The brisket is definitely the star attraction for me, but their other meats are also excellent, and I like the fried brussels sprouts they've added to the menu recently. The bar in the back has a good spread of beers to wash it down, the TVs and live music provide the entertainment, and it's all served by a friendly crew. It's like going to a party at a friend's house who's obsessive about Texas BBQ, and I hope I'll keep getting invited back.

Did I mention that they have a great vibes with cool ass art work throughout the place. Totally the old feel nostalgic SF scenes I used to experience when I was growing up in Portrero Hill. People here give you a service with a smile. No matter how busy they are. Especially a lovely young lady and another woman by the counter. Sweet and very attentive. The sauce counters they have is three different area. Now the food, my favorite is the three items plates. Very good brisket that just moist and tender. My go to is their chicken and Louisiana sausage with brisket or ribs. Juicy and their sides like baked beans and Brussels sprouts is fantastic! Corn bread is to die for. So glad I live close by. A legit place to hang out on Friday or Saturday afternoon. Check out the pics below.

I have experienced many a taco spot... and nothing compares to the utter freshness, flavor and bang-for-your-buck type of value that is offered here. Due to the Lenten season, my hubs and I were looking for a place that offered seafood tacos and this place was rumored to be the best. After stopping by on our way out of town recently, we knew instantly this was true. The aguas frescas are served iced cold and 100% fresh. My agua de guayaba and my hubs' agua de tamarindo were absolutely to die for. You could absolutely taste the fresh fruit for each. Now for the best part. On Friday's they have a special: $5 fish tacos with tortillas made fresh and by hand... complete with all the fixings. The fish is hand battered, made to order and served piping hot, dressed with cabbage, pico de gallo, and a combination of mayo and chipotle aioli. The picture simply doesn't do it justice, folks. Hands down, the best fish tacos in the area. 100/10. The team aboard this truck are friendly, quick and serve every dish up with a smile. Truly elevating the unique experience. While I was only lucky enough to stop for fish tacos, I look forward to future trips to Los Carnalitos for a sampling of their many menu options, especially the fried banana for dessert!! Note: this truck accepts both cash AND card... and they do honor door dash orders!

As others have mentioned, it seems they make their own tortillas, including flour tortillas. The mix of chicken, queso, onion, and cilantro was just right. Their homemade salsa is really tasty. Big portions. Prices are very reasonable, especially considering the quality and quantity. We are very lucky in Redwood City to have so many excellent taquerias and food trucks. Los Carnalitos is among the best.

They have a little seating area if you want to dine there. We ordered the quesabirria plate with consome, taco gobernador and a super quesadilla with chorizo. Quesabirria 9/10- the beef was seasoned well with a good portion of cheese/meat. The birria dip was delicious! Super quesadilla with chorizo 10/10- This was our favorite thing we tried! It's not just a traditional quesadilla with cheese, it also comes with lettuce, onions and avocado. Get it with chipotle sauce on the side, it was easily the best thing ever! The chorizo tasted amazing too and we would go back to get this again! Taco gobernador- 8/10 It is a shrimp taco with cheese and again tasted good! Overall, would come back here again to try other items on the menu! It is definitely one of the better food trucks I've tried. Highly recommend!

My wife and I spotted this new venue while driving to our favorite coffee spot earlier this week. I…read moretold her we should stop by and give it a try one day--well, that day was today. We parked right out front. Parking can be a little challenging, but it's definitely manageable. We walked in around 5:15 PM on a Sunday and found the place completely to ourselves, which makes sense since it's still fairly new. We were greeted by a tall young gentleman at the register who was friendly and welcoming. The menu was organized and specialized, which I really appreciated. Large menus can be overwhelming, and this one felt thoughtfully curated. I ordered two asada tacos, and so did my wife. As we waited, we enjoyed the sweet sounds of Luis Miguel and José José playing in the background. About five minutes later, our food arrived. The gentleman from the register personally brought it over with a great attitude and excellent service. My first impression was how colorful the tacos looked, with vibrant pink and green hues from the toppings. The tortillas had a perfect balance of crispness and softness, while the meat appeared both crispy and tender. I made my way over to the salsa bar and found it clean, well-stocked, and filled with a variety of house-made sauces. When I asked which salsa was the spiciest, one of the ladies in the kitchen pointed me toward the orange sauce. I also noticed some beautifully prepared pickled onions and habaneros--something I absolutely love. I added both to my plate and headed back to the table. After snapping a few pictures, I took my first bite with the orange salsa and the pickled onions and habaneros. My initial reaction was surprise--in the best way possible. The flavors were outstanding. The meat was tender with just the right amount of crispiness. The tortilla was hot, lightly fried, and still delicate. The orange salsa brought serious heat while remaining packed with flavor, and the onions and habaneros added a fresh, savory acidity that tied everything together perfectly. After that first bite, I knew I had made a mistake only ordering two tacos. They were that good. Before I even finished my plate, I walked back up and ordered three more asada tacos. My wife and I were genuinely impressed. The atmosphere was calm, refreshing, and inviting. We left extremely happy with both the food and the experience. We'll definitely be back to explore the rest of the menu. I wish this business nothing but success. This is exactly the kind of hard work, attention to detail, and passion that I love supporting. From start to finish, it was an excellent experience. The tacos were, without a doubt, ¡Ta' con madre!

Why 3 stars? Because I was just so sad about my flavorless chicken…read more --- --- --- I was staying at the Courtyard Marriott and was so excited to see a food truck with 4.8 stars less than a mile away. I had just flown in that day from Houston and I wanted dinner, but I was on central time and ready to go to bed early, so I didn't want to sit down in an actual restaurant. A food truck, not to mention a highly rated food truck was the perfect solution for what I needed. I couldn't resist the NYC Chicken Tikka Masala, because I enjoy all four words of that dish, so what could go wrong? The guy made it for me and handed me this thick boy to-go box, which I promptly walked to my rental car and opened up to see a 10/10 visually appealing heaping meal. And then I took a bite and.... where was the flavor? I took another bite. Same thing. And another. And another. Bland tikka masala?? How does this happen? After I had several bites, I came to the conclusion that it tasted like chicken dipped into water. There was literally no taste to the sauce. Was an ingredient forgotten? Did I come to close to closing time (30 minutes)? I really don't know. I enjoyed the pita bread and the salad concoction, but I will forever be bummed thinking about the alternative places I almost visited before choosing to grab dinner here.

It looks to be a Lao/Thai/Burmese/Southeast Asian fusion truck and I'm SE Asian myself so of course I was intrigued by the menu. The Lao burger caught my attn but I went for the Satay skewers for a ez bite. The skewers came in 3 and were tender and well seasoned! The peanut sauce that accompanied it was quite thick but I didn't mind it hahah I brought it home and dipped some crackers in it. If they did a solid skewer, I'm confident their more decadent items will satisfy so I'm def gonna pay another visit when I can! Met Thiri and Deven who were hard at work but maintained smiles and warmth. Wishing them great success!

Toasted brioche buns top and bottom, caramelized onions, pickles, and two black angus patties--smashed of course. And plenty of condiments. No fancy ingredients, but they made it well for what it was. The chef's name was Deven and he can cook! It's a food truck, so there's really no ambiance. Today was a test run: owners were very open with their experience and they shared some of their initial issues that they have to overcome. The inside of the truck is loud because of the fan, so they have trouble hearing customers. Their truck is limited, so they're not able to do some of the other foods they want to experiment with. And their ordering system is limited in their ability to customize food. Hopefully they'll be able to tackle these issues when they formally open. Their openness gave me a newfound respect for how difficult it can be operating a food truck. They were super nice, so I hope that they can succeed.

Since the food was catered, unfortunately I was unable to see the robots cooking in action, but fortunately was able to taste the final products. I was able to try the Wagyu galbi (short ribs), dak galbi (marinated chicken), Seoul food bowl (stir-fried pork belly and shrimp), and japchae, served with their corn salad, kimchi, and white rice. The Wagyu galbi was very flavorful with a good amount of vegetables; though I enjoyed the inclusion of lotus root, the veggies seemed like borderline filler to skimp out on meat. The dak galbi was also flavorful though spicy, and again the inclusion of rice cakes seemed like filler. The pork belly and shrimp were delicious, and I liked that the pieces of pork belly I had didn't have an overpowering amount of fat. The japchae was pretty standard and was nice to balance out the meat. I enjoyed the corn salad because it added a creamy component to my meal. The kimchi got lost in the mixture of food in my bowl and the rice was cooked perfectly by the robot. Overall, I enjoyed the food prepared by OLHSO Truck. Unfortunately, since the food was catered and already prepared when I arrived, I cannot comment on the service or wait times provided by the staff. I would consider ordering food from the truck if I am craving Korean fusion type of food and am too lazy to dine in at a local Korean restaurant. If the food from the truck is a good representation of the restaurant in downtown San Mateo, I am more inclined to try the restaurant for a nice sit down dining experience.

One thing that is a bit annoying is that there is no way to schedule or get an estimate of your order until after you pay. After clicking the deliver now button, the final eta was actually closer to 70min, but then was actually delivered in 30min. Ordered the Wagyu Galbi, Dak Galbi, SEOUL food, and japchae. The wagyu galbi was nice and tender. The Seoul and dak galbi had similar flavor profiles with the latter being a bit spicier. Note, when you look at your order details, it WONT list any of the sides (e.g. Japchae), which is very confusing. However, it is listed on the final receipt.
