    About the homemade tortillas
    Lynne C.

    Homemade tortillas on top of the amazing delicious food! We keep talking about it, and will definitely go back. What I think was the owner was very nice, friendly and helpful.

    These tacos are soooo delicious. I haven't tried any thing like this. Will order that again

    I love these tacos. Their handmade tortillas made the tacos stand out. The flavor of the meat is also good and not salty. Very clean and cool place. The ladies are very nice and friendly. The chef worked so hard, and I felt bad for him since they are new and a lot of customers come at one time. I will definitely comeback to try the tortas since I saw the next table's order which looked so delicious.

    Pinto tacos (al pastor and carne asada), salsas, blueberry horchata

    Delicious tacos and the blueberry horchata was a nice addition. Friendly service, too. I ordered the Pintos tacos with al pastor and carne asada and they came with a grilled jalapeno. There were tables and chairs for eating there, but they also pack for to-go, which is what I did. Really fresh toppings and meat, but the corn tortillas were the stars of the dish and they packed a lot of flavor. Looking forward to trying more of the menu.

    Best tacos in the South Bay for sure!! I went to DTSJ's Feast Mode event and had been sampling from each truck and finished with Pinto's tacos. They were definitely the best tacos I've ever had. I got the Jalapeño Relleno tacos with Al pastor, carne asada, and pollo tacos. They were sooooo delicious and I loved the crunch from the jalapeños. The salsas were amazing as well and added the perfect amount of spice. I also got a blueberry horchata that was tasty and refreshing. Staff was super friendly as well. Can't wait to take friends and family here!

    Phenomenal flavors and service. I highly recommend! We had regular tacos, pinto tacos and the jalapeño relleno tacos. All in point and their salsa is legit!

    Best tacos in town! Tortillas are something else and salsas are delicious. I've tried everything on the menu. My family and I drive 20 for this place. Five star service five star food. Thank you!

This place is in downtown San Jose so it does not have its own parking lot but you will need to choose an infrastructure to park at. If you are trying to find this spot, it is next to goodtime bar and tucked away in a somewhat alley, rather than being front and center in street view. There is some seating inside and outdoors as well, so it's friendly to order your meal and hang out while drinking a beer in complement of the sandwich. I ordered the chicken tenders with level 3 heat, while my partner got a classic chicken sandwich. He thought that the classic chicken sandwich would give you an option of spice levels too but default it is just the sandwich itself. Their fries again to emphasize, are spectacular! I think it has something to do with their fun crescent moon shape. I typically do not like thicker steak fries, but man, these were tasty and seasoned amazingly. No ketchup needed. When it came to the chicken dishes, while the tenders were well coated with a good ratio between breading to chicken, I felt like outside of the crust, there wasn't any flavor with the chicken itself (was not salty and I wish it was juicy). They gave me some sauce to pair with it, but personally for me, a good chicken tender should standalone be equally delicious. My partner's sandwich was juicy but again I did wish they soaked the chicken or marinated it a bit more to incorporate more flavors. Overall, this spot was fine for me. I don't know if I would come back for the chicken but if I wanted a snack, I would love to get the fries again. :)

    Before any of these food trucks became popular, we'd always refer to these trucks as "Roach…read moreCoaches!" Do any of you remember that? Whenever I'd hear about a food truck back in the day, the first thing that would come to mind is prepackaged food. However, those days are long gone! These food trucks are now capable of whipping up gourmet meals that could potentially rival any local sit down restaurant. At this particular location, the trucks only come out on Friday night, with 9-11 different trucks to choose from. They also provide live music and fun games for the family. They do provide 5 gallon buckets that are used for seats, and a couple of planks/boards that can be used as tables while you are scarfing down your food. Some folks just bring their own chairs, as those buckets eventually make your ass pretty sore. These are the trucks that will be here on Friday 10/30/15 333 Truck Chairman Truck Fairycakes Gold Rush Eatery Oh Miso Hungry Sam's Chowdermobile Sanguchon Treatbot Waffle Amore As you can see, it is pretty diverse. From a cupcake to a lobster roll, take your pick! Side note: If you plan on staying for a few hours, bring your own chairs! Your ass will thank you later. Conclusion: Who wants to keep track of where a certain food truck is going to be next week at 11:30 AM on Wednesday? Show up on a Friday night and you can treat yourself to about 10 trucks at once. It doesn't get any better than that. ***Minus 1 Star for some of the ridiculous prices***

    "Cream on the inside, clean on the outside. Ice, ice cream, ice cream paint job."…read more Plenty of food trucks to go around: Treatbot - Single Scoop $3.00 (Many flavors) The Chairman (Bao) - Steamed Tender Pork Belly with Turmeric Pickled Daikon & Green Shiso $3.75 Sam's Chowdermobile - PO Boy and Fries (Fried bay andouille with remoulade, toasted bun, and old bay fries) $8.75 - Sam's Lobster Roll (Maine lobster, warmed butter, toasted bun) Regular $16.12; Shortie $10.59 Tina's Tips and Tantrums - Parking limited, but free - Long lines are to be expected - Someone stands in line and someone save seats - Tummy was only hungry for three - Sam's Chowdermobile is always good especially their lobster roll. Super generous about their lobster! - First time, I've never had the Po Boy (andouille - slightly spiced) but it was good and oily though. Fries were bomb! - Chairman's pork belly bun was delicious, a wee bit on the greasy side - Ice cream flavors we had were Ube - Purple Yam, Old School Vanilla, and The 408 - Caramel Ice Cream with Oreos and Fudge. I loved my "The 408" so yummylicious! - Always a great way to spend time with your friends and family.

Today, I decided to order the Chicken Fajitas, and it completely exceeded my expectations. Without a doubt, it was the most delicious fajitas dish I have ever had.

The portion size was very generous, and the sides were fantastic. The guacamole, sour cream, Spanish rice, and black beans were all fresh, flavorful, and complemented the meal perfectly. I've always enjoyed the food here, but from now on the Chicken Fajitas will definitely be my regular order. Well-deserved 5 stars. Thank you, El Halal Amigos!

However, I recently learned they do taco tuesday deals! The deal is only for the al pastor chicken tacos and it was actually good! I did not have high expectations because I don't like chicken tacos, but El Halal Amigos know what they're doing. My boyfriend also tried the brisket taco and he said it was worth the $5. The only thing I didn't like were the salsas-- I thought it was okay. Salsas were on the watery side and it didn't have much flavor. Service was nice & timely. We sat outside and we had someone check on us a couple times. They also give free chips & salsa.
