Got the #1 (bacon wrapped hot dog) without mustard during my recent visit to this food truck. Staff was sweet, and service was lightning fast. My order was made correctly and very tasty, even though the jalapeno topping was not spicy. But the hot dog was mini sized, a cute lil thing I could fit in my pocket. Also, parking and traffic in the area were a nightmare on Saturday evening (it's what you'd expect in East SJ). read more

It's everything you want in a hotdog after a night out for half the price. Trying this place put me on a hot dog bender for the whole weekend. They are pretty small so I would get two if you're super hungry. read more

Solid place to get suped up hot dogs. The hot dogs were smaller than I would've liked, but with the bacon and the fajitas it definitely felt like I came out of a concert or a bar in dtsj. Minus -1 star for price but otherwise it's a cool place to get a quick hotdog. read more

The hot dogs here are so good and loaded with toppings. The lady at the counter was super nice and got our order out really fast.

Man!!, this place is the best, we were in San Diego for the weekend and I wanted to eat Crabs, I found this place Boil Daddy for crab pot and I wasn't wrong, its the best thing I've done going to this place, my day ended up so fully of enjoy. Come to this place read more

Hmmm, I'm a bit disappointed with my last visit but I won't boycott indefinitely as I try to support food trucks until they turn into a brick and mortar. I ordered the hot link (#10 on the menu) which is a hot link topped off with grilled onions, jalapeños, mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard. By the time I got home, the hot dog bun was so soggy - it basically melted in the box. I couldn't eat it :( I will update this review the next time I try something else on their menu. I think the trick is to eat whatever you order right when you receive it. Cash only. read more

Between hot dogs and hamburgers - I'm definitely a hot dog fan but there are very few places in the area! This truck has been on my wishlist for the longest time. When we went to the flea market this weekend and saw this truck, I knew it was time! The menu is fairly straightforward and the cashier was quite friendly. I ordered a number 1 - bacon wrapped hot dog with ketchup, mustard, mayo, jalapeños, onions at $5. The order came out quite fast and I was impressed by how it looked! It was saucy - tart and creamy, beyond savory with lovely textures from the veggies. We will definitely return and try the other hot dogs. read more

This place is so good! I came here by accident and now it's my go to, when I have a cheat day So let me start with the bacon wrapped hot dogs ... they are delicious... the hamburgers are like the ones they sell in Mexico- they are so tasty ...and then let me tell you about the torta de milanesa, it is off the hook! I highly recommend you come here and try everything they have on the menu! read more

Vanessa's hot dogs are so good! I ordered the bacon wrapped hot link and the regular bacon wrapped hot dog. I thought the hot dogs looked small at first (must've been from staring at the giant hot dogs on the truck), but it's actually pretty filling. The truck is parked in a small lot in front of the Tropicana Liquor store. There are several spots for parking but it's usually full when I come here. I just park behind the hot dog truck since it's pretty quick. Will definitely be back! read more

We used to come here often as my wife loves their Elotes En Vaso but the last few times we've gone, the chile they use for the corn is extremely salty to where we throw away the top portion to get rid of the chile and salt. Please take the salt out of the chile! Its so salty that you actually feel the salt burn. read more

Vanessa's hot dogs are SO good!! I don't even like mustard, mayo, or jalapenos but the combination of those ingredients on this hot dog are literally delicious. The bacon is super crispy, the onions are caramelized perfectly, and the flavors just combine perfectly. I do wish the bun was more toasted though because towards the end the bun got really soggy and fell apart. But other than that, these hot dogs are delicious and I highly recommend! read more

It looks so good on the picture but it's a disappointment. The hotdog it's self it's the the very thing hot dog. The bacon is wrapped only on half of the hotdog. I tasted more of the jalapeños thrown on top than anything else. read more

We were out shopping in San Jose so we finally decided to drive to Vanessas hot dogs in San Jose. They're on Story Rd just east of Capitol in the Tropicana liquors lot. Bacon wrapped hot dogs were delicious! We ordered and were out of there in 15 minutes. read more

BOMB! I mean, you can't go wrong with a bacon wrapped hotdog (..unless you're vegan). Always fresh, but also always busy! Expect to wait in line especially anytime after 4:00pm. On our recent trip we got 6 hotdogs of various combinations for about $24 cash. Not bad! Try it out! read more

**Cash only** I found out about this place from a friend and wooow. These hot links were bomb. They are pretty small in my opinion but they are very generous with toppings. I also got a chance to try their elote which was also really good (don't get it in a cup though because it gets watery). We ordered 6 hot dogs & 1 elote in a cup for $41. I say it was definitely worth it. We came on a Wednesday night - no lines - about a 10 minute wait for all of our food. Definitely check this place out :) read more

Located my Tropicana liquor on Story road. A food truck that tickles your taste buds. They just expanded their menu. Now added burger and fries and elotes (Mexican style corn on the cob). Their bacon wrapped hot dog is their original claim to fame. It's bacon wrapped and full of Mexican goodies like onions jalapeños sour cream. It is soooo good. They've added burgers and my hubby thinks it's the best burger in town. I alive live their elotes. If you wanna eat here bring your drink because they do Not sell it. Come back for more read more

The hot dog reminds of the smell when the vendors would sell on the street Mexican hot dogs wrapped in bacon during the Giants World Series Championship parades and sometimes they will be stand by in mission or any ball game at Oracle park. This one is something new and me and friend tried it out it's good! Will comeback again for more read more

This burger is great! Not sure if it's the ham or the pineapple that they dress it with, but it works and I keep coming for more! Its flavor is consistent and to me that is key. The only improvement I'd say would be needed is a better bun, not a deal breaker for me though :) read more

Well what can I say other then it did fill me up the hotdog is $4.00. Got it with everything on it. Im used to the bacon having a bit more of a crunch to it. Other then that the food was good something easy to get on the way to an event or out of town. Still have to try there dorito and lay hot dogs also some of the corn they have an burger so I will add more to this review. read more

Buns are soft and warm, and everything else as good an warm too, good price for the size and yes the corn on the cub are juicy and warm too! Recommend if you' come by San Jose ! read more

$10 for two smaller hot dogs, bacon wrapped and griddled crispy with a lot of toppings. Like the Ball Park-brand size, as opposed to Costco food court size. But they are piled high with onions, jalapenos, and all the rest. I got mine with everything, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Prices aren't posted, so I just had to guess until my credit card statement came in. Easy parking in the lot of the convenience store. read more

Good price for quality hotdogs... satisfying the late night craving for street dogs!!! NOT stingy with cheese & bacon on fries!!!

Well worth it very fullfilling. I'm not much of a dog lover but this lil truck right here got it going!!

Great stationary food truck set up! Everyone placed their orders and was either back in their car or social distancing while they waited for these tasty , well condiment-ed dogs! The bacon hides nestled between the buns wrapped around the hot dog and the jalapeños brings the right amount of heat but it's not overwhelming! I chased mine with a grape Crush soda and enjoyed every morsel! You definitely could be greedy and get multiplies, but one was a wonderful treat for me! read more

If you are looking for some street hot dog's this a place I recommend. I don't really like my hot dogs with too many condiments but just as seen on the picture it was so delicious! It's a must try if you are in the area. read more

They recently change to a food truck, I being going there for over a year, they are good. they add corn to the menu which is good for after ur meal lol (fatty) They dont have chairs or table but u will see people eating in the back of their cars or even standing up, it really dont matter u will enjoy it regardless read more

If you haven't tried this place, GO ASAP! I don't have much to say about this place because it just speaks for itself. Bacon-wrapped hot dogs for $2.50?? 2 please!! If you're a big eater like I am, trust me, you're gonna want to order two. The hot dogs remind me of when I was visiting Hollywood and they'd have hot dog ladies every few steps along the Walk of Fame. I was so hungry that day I literally finished my dirty dog in 3 bites. Yup. Try to bring $1 and $5 if you can and I don't think he takes cards. read more

I'm so glad my friend took me here. I can't believe I didn't know about this place until now. It's $2.50 for a hotdog wrapped in bacon with grilled onions and jalapeño with sauces on the side to add on from pico de gallo, tomatoes, jalapeño, onions, ketchup, mayonnaise, and mustard. It's delicious on a cold night. Biting into the juicy and warm hotdog just keeps your stomach warm and happy! I'll definitely be back! And there's a taco truck right across from it and it's also very tasty! Just $1.25/ taco!!! If you're a fatty like me, you can get both hotdog and tacos ;) and for dessert, there is a Mexican churro stand. I shall try to conquer all three stands in one sitting next time ;D Sorry I devoured my hotdog before I even got a chance to take a picture. Next time!! read more

Don't even hesitate coming here. Just do it and get everything on your hot dog when you're there. Get some jalapenos on the side (if you like spicy!!) while you're waiting. The toppings include: ketchup, mustard , mayo, grilled onions and jalapenos on a bacon wrapped hot dog in your average bun. Then you can add additional salsa on it if you want. Last time I went, the hotdogs were $3.50 each and they are worth every single penny. read more

I think this is the best hotdog I've ever had. I tried Calidog, but not as good as this place! Love the real jalapenos, grilled onions, bacon wrapped dog, ketchup, mayo, and mustard. It is so tasty, I don't even need to be drunk to love this! Only $2.50! Cheap and delicious! read more
