This is the  current location of the taco truck

Do not eat here or you will regret it. The service at this place was terrible. I ordered a alambre (a type of Mexican dish) and it was delivered burnt and missing several of the ingredients listed on the menu. When I arrived, I placed my order and asked about the ingredients; initially, everything seemed fine. My wife ordered a burrito without some of the ingredients, and the person who took the order--a Colombian woman, not very friendly and clearly distracted by the cook and her cell phone--served us without paying much attention. I don't care about her privacy, but I do care about the lack of professionalism. There were about seven people ahead of me, so I waited about 25 minutes. Three more people arrived, and although the place seemed busy, both the cook and the cashier were joking around instead of focusing on their work. Everyone ahead of me was served, then number 8, then number 9... and before I knew it, they had also served number 10. The cashier looked annoyed and asked if I had received my food yet; I replied no. The cook served other orders before mine, and I ended up being last. The cashier, a little nervous, just kept repeating, "It'll be ready in a minute." After another five minutes, I went to get my vegetables and salsas, but there were no lemons, cucumbers, salsas, or beans. The entire ingredients area was dirty. I asked the woman to refill it, and she did, but mentioned they were out of cucumbers. If I'm paying full price, I expect to receive full service. In the end, I left annoyed and with a bad experience, thinking, "Well, I'll eat my alambre and my wife will have her burrito." Imagine my surprise when my alambre was burnt and completely golden brown. I think the cook gave me whatever was left on the griddle, or he forgot about my burrito. The meat was all mushy, and the cheese was cold and not even melted. I'm so angry because you expect good service when you pay a lot, and these people are either chatting up or distracted. I think it goes without saying that this will be the last time I eat there. Anyway, check out the pictures. Thank you for your response. I understand that sometimes businesses may deal with difficult employees, but customer comments exist so owners can identify what needs improvement. If customers don't share their experiences, you could lose business without ever knowing why. Regardless of the reasons behind the bad service, the responsibility is still on the business to make sure customers receive good food and good customer service -- especially because we are paying for it. I'm not looking for sad stories or excuses. I simply hope you take this feedback to improve your business so it can succeed. I also added a picture of the location because it shows up on Google but not on Yelp -- I wonder why? lol

Plastic with my tacos
Frawlahyn S.

Actual plastic in my tacos... very disappointing to see a plastic in my tacos. Won't go back unfortunately.

Super Quesadilla
Briana S.

Meat was very tender. Quesadilla was too oily and cheesy for me but I still demolished it. Hubby's burrito and tacos were good too. 4 stars because there was no frescas (as it was literally being advertised) and it was hard for us to order because no one spoke English :(

Carne asada tacos with grilled onions
James C.

My go to late night local taco truck. They're typically set up on silver creek road in across the street from the target in the parking lot of Outdoor Supply Hardware or sprouts. They have outdoor seating and a self service grilled veggie bar (onions, jalapeños, peppers) as well as all the sauces, limes and radishes. I got the carne asada tacos with each taco being 3 dollars I believe. The meat was a tad overcooked for my liking sometimes, but for 3 dollars a pop and the unlimited veggies, I keep coming back :) It's nice sitting outside on a cool or warm night and eating some reasonably priced tacos!

I know food trucks are typically not very hygienic, but I found a piece of glass in my burrito. I initially thought it was bone when I was chewing it.

Where is my consome?
An L.

This place is completely negligent when it comes to restaurant service! I specifically ordered extra crema on my tacos, and the Birria tacos on DoorDash clearly state they come with a cup of consomé. They forgot both! I ordered through DoorDash for convenience, and now I can't even call the restaurant to complain. I asked my Dasher, and he said he double-checked with them to ensure everything was included, and they confirmed it was. Now I have to go through the hassle of reporting this to DoorDash just to get my money back. Absolutely unacceptable and a complete waste of time!

Ordered through door dash. These birria tacos were some of the best I've had! Not overly greasy, especially the consommé.. the consommé was BOMB.COM, I coulda drank it. The meat wasn't all fatty either like some other places I've tried. Super tender and flavorful inside of perfectly crisp tacos. Their red salsa is delicious too. I'll be ordering again real soon (:

Tiffany W.

Not the best and not the worst. I'm from SoCal and hands down the best tacos are home. This taco truck is owned by two ladies and they were somewhat friendly they just stared a lot at my group of friends which was fine...I guess just made it a little uncomfortable. There's not a lot of seating outside.

Open and close schedule
Mark T.

Best birria for the best price in San Jose. Only thing is it says they open the one on capital at 5:00 and they don't even arrive on capital till 5:45 to set up the truck and start cooking especially because I pre ordered for pick up through DoorDash it let me place the order and now I'm sitting in the parking lot if this wasn't the best birria I can find near me I'd be super annoyed

Lengua, Cabeza and Al Pastor tacos. Carne Asada torta!
David K.

Ordered through Doordash but the food was packaged well, followed all directions. Their green sauce is good! The tacos were all pretty tasty but what takes the cake is their torta! Wow, the bread was so soft and the taste of all ingredients were amazing!

Al pastor
Stephen F.

Their tacos were flavorful. The service was decent and did not take long. There's outdoor seatings but I got my food to-go. I'll definitely come back again.

It was Tuesday close to lunch. Gavin had a rough night after surgery. I barely slept myself, but…read morethere was nothing for us to do beside going through it and trying our best to stay calm. I went downstairs (we were at Valley Medical Hospital) to get Ronnie since he wanted to come to visit Gavin, and so since we saw food trucks, we figured we should grab lunch. + Classic Chicken Sandwich for Gavin + Chicken Tenders and Fries for Ronnie + Nashville Hot Chicken for me (opted for spice level 5) Food did not take long at all. They accept cards. You don't have to tolerate/like spicy foods to enjoy a meal here. The chicken was not greasy and was crispy and juicy as well. Fortunately, a little after we devoured our meals (Gavin barely finished half of his), we were given the discharge approval since he was able to hop/use the walker and use the wheelchair. Different food trucks line up the drop-off area, convenient for staff and visitors to fuel up. It's never fun to be at the hospital. The hospital displays the QR code so you can see which trucks will be there, so you can plan ahead.

Come get your chicken on! Scratch Cookery serves Nashville hot chicken sandwiches, burgers,…read moretenders, and fries with spice levels from classic to 7 (ghost and Carolina reaper hot). The husband and I came here for lunch on a weekend. Parking wasn't too bad, but because it is located in downtown area, expect some challenges. There was a line out the door when we arrived, but it moved at a quick pace. The restaurant itself is on the smaller side with limited seating indoor and out. The husband and I ordered the Grilled Cheese Nashville Hot and Chicken Tenders. The Grilled Cheese was tasty with a nice balance of heat and tanginess from their slaw. The Chicken Tenders were appetizing, but it wasn't as flavorful as I had hoped for. It does come with sauce on the side, which helped. Staff were nice and service was efficient despite the growing line. Although a bit pricey, I think their chicken is good and worth trying out if you're in the area.

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.

I've been a regular customer at El Halal Amigos for quite some time and have tried many different…read moreitems on the menu. 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 chicken was perfectly seasoned, the vegetables were cooked just right, and all the flavors came together beautifully. Everything was cooked to perfection. 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!

This was my very first visit to El Halal Mexican Restaurant in the heart of downtown Willow Glen,…read moreand I've been wanting to stop by for a while. I finally decided to give it a try after hearing about the restaurant from food reviewer Dave fiore text. As someone who absolutely loves tacos and is always on the hunt for great local taco spots, I was excited to see how this place compared to some of my favorites. I ordered four different tacos, and overall, they were pretty good. They weren't bad by any means, but they also didn't quite blow me away. The meat was cooked well, the tortillas were fresh, and the tacos had good flavor. The salsa was decent too, although I personally prefer something with a little more kick. Everyone has different tastes, so this is just my opinion. One thing I really appreciated was how clean and organized the restaurant was. You can tell they take pride in keeping the dining area nice and welcoming. The staff was friendly, and my food came out quickly. It's always a good sign when a restaurant pays attention to both cleanliness and customer service. I've eaten at a lot of taco places throughout the Bay Area, so I naturally compare every new place to some of my favorites. While El Halal Mexican Restaurant didn't make the top of my list, I still had a good experience and I'm glad I finally gave it a shot. Not every restaurant has to be your favorite to be worth visiting. I also like supporting family-owned businesses because I know how much hard work goes into running a local restaurant. They deserve credit for creating a clean, welcoming place and serving quality food. Will I come back? Maybe. If I do, I'd probably try something different on the menu instead of the tacos. Sometimes a restaurant's best dish isn't the first thing you order, and I'd be interested in seeing what else they have to offer. Overall, I'd give El Halal Mexican Restaurant a solid 4 out of 5 stars. It was a good experience, I'm happy I finally got to try it, and if you're in the Willow Glen area, it's worth stopping by and deciding for yourself.
