So if you're looking for a light snack then you'll walk away with plenty of leftovers BUT these churros will put a smile on your face: soft, sweet, and chewy that will make you come back again and again. And watching the dude make your churros in front of you is an experience in itself! Sorry no pictures since they only left me one piece

Thank you for making our son's bday party extra special! They asked us what time we plan to serve and they arrived early to make sure they cook the meats (yes! They cook the meats there, nothing was precooked) and served right on time. It was a sold out event!!!! Everyone loved all the meats - chicken, carne asada and al pastor. The churros was a hit! The quesadillas was an add on and was sold out. They felt bad and even asked if we had cheese coz they don't mind making more. They went over and beyond with their service which we truly appreciated. We definitely recommend this and most likely hire them again!!!! Thank you Banda's! You guys are the best!

MENU AND FOOD: This taco stand serves a selection of Mexican favorites at the corner of Industrial…read moreParkway and Whipple Road by Target. SERVICE AND ATMOSPHERE: Service is quick and efficient. They are a pop up taco stand without any seating. PARKING: Located near a shopping plaza, customers typically park in the nearby lot. IMPRESSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS: This is an our new favorite spot! Their meats are cooked well with food flavor. I usually get 5 tacos with buche and al pastor. They have a self serve topping/sides/salsa bar.

While the lines might make it look like a local favorite, there are some serious concerns that…read moreneighbors should be aware of before stopping by. As a regular in this area, I've noticed a few red flags that are hard to ignore: Zero Visible Permits: Most legal food vendors are required to display their Alameda County Health Department "green placard" and a city business license. This stand has neither. Hygiene Issues: There are no visible handwashing stations or proper refrigeration systems for the raw meat and trompo being served. In a 2026 climate where food safety is increasingly a concern, eating from an open-air tent with no running water is a major gamble. Unfair Competition: Our local "brick-and-mortar" restaurants pay high rents, city taxes, and regular inspection fees to keep our community safe and fed. Unpermitted pop-ups like this one operate with zero overhead, which directly hurts the small businesses that have been the backbone of Hayward and Union City for years. If you're craving authentic Mexican food, please consider supporting the shops that actually follow the rules and invest in our neighborhood. You'll get a safer meal and help a local business stay afloat: Taqueria Fronteras 1 (just down the road on Whipple)--Reliable, inspected, and consistently great. Don Julio's Taqueria--Incredible quesabirria and they actually follow health codes. Taqueria La Placita--A local staple that has earned its reputation the right way. Let's keep our community healthy and support the people who actually pay into our local economy!

This food truck serves up great cheesesteak and other sandwiches with some unique options…read more I ordered the Flying Pig. When it showed up, it was loaded with bacon, ham, pineapple, chicken, pork and more! It was a beast of a sandwich! To maintain my beauty (??) in the presence of the beast, I only ate about a third of it. The rest of it was just fine reheated later on. Grillaz Gone Wild has fun takes on the BBQ sandwich, and does them well. They sure do not skimp on ingredients! The food truck staff was fun, friendly and gave helpful hints about the items on offer. They serve the classic cheesesteaks, but I think that they stand out for their unique interpretations of the classic sandwiches. The Flying Pig. Does it intrigue you? Trust me, the pineapple pulls the flavour together. Now, search for Grillaz Gone Wild and catch that Flying Pig!

We decided to try this food truck for dinner last night since it was nearby. We shared the pepper…read moresteak sandwich and the loaded fries. The pepper steak sandwich was stuffed with hot cherry peppers and the ribeye meat was pretty dry. There wasn't enough American cheese on it. The loaded fries were a good portion. The fries were lightly seasoned with all seasoning salt. They were crispy. However, it was smothered in too much cheddar cheese and scallions. There wasn't much bacon on it and the ribeye meat was in large pieces which didn't make it as enjoyable. A little pricey for what it's worth as we spent ~$26 on 2 items. :/

Tacos Mi Reynita has officially ruined all other tacos for me nothing compares to their quesatacos!…read moreThe flavor, the quality, the crispiness... absolutely unreal every single time. You can tell everything is made with care and it shows in every bite. I also LOVE that they give you grilled onions and serrano peppers on the side. Un platillo mexicano nunca le puede faltar unos chilitos asados It just makes the whole experience that much better and more authentic. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. It's hands down my favorite taco spot. My only complaint? I wish they opened earlier because I'm literally craving their tacos all day every day! If you haven't tried them yet, you're seriously missing out.

I stumbled upon this farmer's market as I was doing my blood bank rotation at Kaiser San Leandro. There were fewer vendors than last week so I opted to have baked potato as lunch. For $6 I got a baked potato that is at least twice the size of my fist in a tin foil plate. It also the standard fixings: bacon bits, jalapeños, shredded cheese and scallions. They also pour a little bit of chicken broth at the end so that your potato is still fluffy and you can take off bits of skin from the potato. Supposedly according to people it used to be $5. $1 for water or soda. Yes they take credit. Best $6 I've spent in a while! There was so much potato I saved half for the next day. Still tastes great even when microwaved.

We were visiting a friend in the east bay and a coworker recommended us to come here for a stall's…read morecold noodles. The market isn't that big but had the usual offerings. But they did have Thai Holy Basil and my husband was excited. We can make ka prow. So we found the cold noodle stall. Ordered. The mild is not spicy at all, and the spicy was like a medium. So definitely get spicy if you want some kick. But if you plan to come here for this, either come early or somehow pre-order (although I don't know their website info). We wanted to try it first before grabbing a few more for our friends. But they told us they were "sold out" for preorders. Well that's a bummer! How are you going to market yourself if folks wander the farmers market and want to try your noodles?? Ah well, solid choice, but don't expect to be able to get a bowl! Empanadas were MEH. Mamabakehouse was a good choice if you love kouign amanns. Easy parking is a plus!
