Shout out to my daughter's elementary school PTA for setting up some food truck to take part in our Back To School Night. Without them I would never have known Indian Express existed... Indian Express's offerings for the evening consisted of 4 different kind of curries, rice & bread combos. My purchase of the night was the mango lassi & veg samosas. The mango lassi was good. My only regret was not being able to snap a photo prior to it being devoured by my very thirsty toddler. The drink was sweet and tart- all at the same time. Addictive and easy to drink being that the textures wasn't super thick. The 2pc samosas were great!! The outer shell was crisp and the vegetable filling was piping hot, flavored well with the array of spices. The chutney was sweet with a slight note of spice- tasty to say the least but not exactly necessary IMO. 4 stars. I'd come back in a heartbeat for the samosas and may even try one of the curries if I'm feeling adventurous. read more

Hired Indian Express for a 100 person client event and it was a success! Extremely easy to coordinate with and to explain the menu, and it was delish! Thanks! read more

There was a food truck at the event, and I just had to check it out. It'd been a while since I'd had Indian food, so I went for the samosa chaat, which was totally new to me. Later, I found out that "chaat" means a savory snack. The samosa chaat started off a little sweet, then got spicy--it was such a cool mix of flavors! Plus, the textures were really fun. For around $10, I'd definitely go back and try other dishes. read more

I tried their combo which came with a choice of curry (channa masala, wish they had a paneer option), samosa, paratha, and rice. The line moved very fast and the food was pretty good, I am a fan. read more

I recommend the samosa chaat. It was soooo good I wanted to dance in my seat while eating it. It had just enough samosa pieces that you can enjoy the entire dish without feeling overwhelmed by the other ingredients. Just a hint of spiciness. The chickpeas, yogurt, tamarind chutney and crispy sev (chickpea noodles) toppings covering the samosas was like finding a treasure with every bite. The samosa itself was very good, too. The butter chicken and parata combo was also exceptional. Butter chicken was on a sweeter side, not spicy at all but still has the familiar tomato and spices flavor of butter chicken. The chicken in the curry was cut in bite sized pieces which I appreciate because it makes it easier to eat. Chicken also has it own flavor, not bland. The paratha was the best one I've had. The combo me with two pieces. Paratha was not too oily. It's flaky, soft and gets denser toward the center. Texture was not doughy. Both dishes did not disappoint. The girl the orders was patient and pleasant when other customers were asking questions about the food. Paid $25 total for both dishes. Only downside is the wait to get the food; took 19 minutes after paying. Would have been a 5 star if wait was not long. Found the lm at the Dillo Haat at Kelly Park in SJ. Will definitely choose their food if I find them at another event. read more

Tried their combos and pav baji. The porottas were very fluffy and nice. Samosas curries and pav baji was also good. Overall it was a very good experience. A little pricey for a food cart though read more

Sid catered a party at our house where we had ~75 guests. His team was phenomenal. They set up an hour before the party in our backyard and were very friendly and efficient. They made sure that people were served quickly and gave us adequate reminders about the service end time so that all the guests could get their food in time. We had a chaat party with 4 chaat options, pav bhaji and gulab jamuns. Everything was excellent. Loved their dahi papdi chaat, pav bhaji and gulab jamuns. All our guests raved about the chaat and the service. Highly recommend Sid and his team! read more

Tried their excellent chaat today at the Cupertino night market from their food truck. As the very long lines of people waiting would attest, they are popular and the food is tasty. Favorites were the Pav bhaji and the samosa chaat. Dahi puri was nice too and well seasoned. Everyone in the family enjoyed it and I came back to a long line for second order again. Highly recommend trying them read more

Had their lunch combo during the holi event at memorial park at Cupertino. Food was amazing and very tasty. Tried their butter chicken which had melt in mouth chicken pieces. The flaky paratha also was very fresh. To top off, the combo includes rice as well as one samosa. Everything was perfect and understood why there was a line of 15 people here and no people at the fried chicken food truck! Want to try their rice bowl as it was not available that day.. read more

wonderful event and had them come out for this. The made to order dosas were delicious and the chutneys and chaat were amazing! I hope to use them again in the future! read more

I was passing by the street and notice this truck. I have ordered the rice bowl which came with butter, chicken rice, Malabar paratha and Samosa well I love it. This one sparkling water. The service was nice and quick!! read more

It was a really a good experience having to try the food. Pav bhaji was on point and the portion was good and the taste was sometime that I grew up eating. Chat options are delicious had tried the bhel was perfect in spice level and balanced taste. I would go to Sid again as he is also fun to talk to and very friendly and approachable. All for all was a well rounded experience. read more

Vegetarian curry - Owner was super nice to let me try a less spicy version than what I had previously. It has a delightful kick to it that never became overwhelming. I was able to finish it this time. It was delicious! Vegetarian samosas - As delicious as I remembered them! I had 3 orders of this, and was very full. Service - Fast, very friendly, and cheery. read more

Update: I tried the kothu parotta again, and it was awesome, after long time had a kothu parotta taste same as my home town in India and we tried their channa rice bowl it's perfect, Highly recommend this place. read more

This food truck offers one of the best chicken curries i have had! This food truck was parked close to our house on a Wednesday evening so thought of trying then out. Ordered the rice plate with chicken curry, paratha curry (butter chicken curry with this plate) and the vegetarian samosa. Everything was just delicious and the service was pretty quick. Taking off a star though as we felt the portion size wasn't as much as we expected. read more

I had their Butter Chicken at the Cupertino Night Market. It was quite good, flavorful and a healthy portion. The operators of the truck are quite nice and seem to be good people. If I see them at another market, I'll be sure to give them my business. read more

Sid catered our son's graduation party where we had 90 people in our home. He and his team arrived on time (one hour before) and set up all the food. We had a live dosa counter as well. The food was a hit with the guests. They raved about it during and after the party!. The team made sure the food was refilled regularly and kept warm. The dosa options were delicious and guests were very happy!. We had papdi chaat, samosa chaat, butter chicken & paratha, pav bhaji, live dosa counter & gulab jamun. We will for sure get Sid again for our parties. Would highly recommend! read more

We had food from Indian Express food truck just a few minutes ago. Their food was very good. I highly recommend trying them. They are here at the Riverview apartments next to the leasing office in North San Jose every Wednesday and Fridays. I liked everything here but my most favorite was, their Dahi papdi chat. It has the perfect mix of ingredients with the right crunchiness. A MUST TRY! The owner is very nice and friendly. Gave us a sample of the chicken curry to taste the spiciness, as it was for our kids. Will be back more often now that I found this place :) read more

Great food! Love the chiken Korma and chicken tikka masala! Really great chat! Great Chat! Love the Pav Bhaji read more

My coworker and I are constantly on the lookout for when this food truck comes. We all love Indian food and typically eat it 1-3 times/2 weeks. The flakiness of the parantha and the creamy richness of the butter chicken is really authentic and delicious. Happy they come to Stanford! read more

5+ stars for the customer service 4 stars for food Found this place on Yelp and called them to ask where they were located on a Thursday noon. They informed us that they were in the eBay parking lot. By the time we dragged ourselves from where we were in Sunnyvale to eBay, they had already left the spot. Upon calling the owner I was informed that they had just left and they will drive back for us. Since my friend (who was visiting me from Canada) was really excited to try their authentic Tamil Chicken Biryani after reading the raving reviews, I thought I could live with one day of impoliteness and let them drive back. After profuse thanking on out part and apologizing for leaving on their part we ordered a chicken biryani and a vegetarian meal. My friend liked the Biryani and attested the authentic Tamil Biryani claim. I liked my 3 curries as well. ( usually it comes with two curries and salad, but since I was confused between two curries, the very nice owner decided to give me all three and skip the salad). The serving size of both the items was good for two people. Definitely bang for your buck. If I was working at one of those buildings I wouldn't mind a homecooked-like meal at doorstep. Although I am not sure if I will specially drive to them, just to get lunch. Will go again to try their dosa though. They have lunch stops and Cisco and Ebay buildings. You can also follow them on twitter to know the location of the truck. Reminds me of the movie Chef :) Thanks again for your Hospitality! read more

the owner was responded for my complaint about the receipt, i have checked my email spam folder and I got the receipt . today I went again to try their biriyani, but they didn't have biriyani, the owner recommended me to try their curry with rice which is kushka( flavored rice) , I ordered butter chicken and LAMB curry with rice, it was really delicious for that I'm giving 5 stars this time. read more

[Update Jan 2017] The owner reached out after I gave them a review and I realized that I had made mistakes on my previous review. I am updating the two places accordingly. This food truck is parked outside the eBay campus and it is very convenient to get food from them during lunch. Two of us had gone to get food from them. As we approached the truck, we saw the menu posted next to the window. I took the rice combo which had fried rice, two chappati (Indian bread) lettuce, a fried egg with runny yolk and two curries. You could choose from the list and I asked for fish curry and veg khorma (veg curry). My friend took the chicken Kothu paratha. Both our orders cost us $10 [updated: previously I had said $10 + tax which is not the case]. They use square to take payments and have the chip reader device with them. What I did not like about the cashier is that after he swiped my card, he performed the signature himself on the square app [update: I was informed that signature is not required for smaller denomination swipes] We had to wait less than 5 min to get our food. While the rice was a little bland, the curries were well seasoned. The fish curry was a little too oily for my taste, though the fish seemed to be fresh. Overall I liked the to go box that he gave me. He did, however, forget to give me any plastic silverware [Update: Plastic Silverware is placed next to the board and customers can help themselves. I apparently didn't notice that, so apologize for he wrong review] Because the food was nice, the service was quick (including my signature being done on square on my behalf) and the experience was pleasant I am giving them four stars. If they keep up the service experience and the taste, I will notch up the rating to 5 in a few weeks. read more

Thank you Sid for an amazing Dosa party yesterday, all the guests enjoyed the food and best part was your ever smiling attitude. Dosa was super yummy and in the cold weather it was amazing experience to have hot Dosa in your plate. Gulab jamun and Samosa were amazing too, I am sure you'll get referrals from our event as everyone was asking about it. Thank you again for making our event successful read more

I was looking for a casual unique food truck experience near Ebay campus and this did not disappoint me !!!!!! Being greeted by Sid as we were ordering was an added fun plus. Many options to choose from and all fresh made right there. Portions are hearty - depending on what you order you could even share plates.I am definitely going to try again. read more

Great curries and parantha and samosa chaat. Loved it!!! Hoping to try goat Curry too sometime soon

We came here when they were behind the Ebay campus. It took us a bit to find, but it wasn't too difficult. The food was fast and tasted good, but I wish it were spicier. The menu on their website is also a little bit misleading because we thought there would be more things to order, but either way it was still delicious. We'll be back sometime! read more

Second trip to the food truck. The food remains constitantly good. I decided to get the biryani again based on my good experience last time around. And the food did not disappoint. The rice was well with cardamom, fennel, Bay leaves, cloves, star anise, cilantro and mint. The boneless pieces of meat were tender and moist. The cashew nuts were a nice touch. A little on the spicy side, thanks to chilli powder and green chilli peppers - just the way I like it, and reminding me of home. If the owners maintain these flavors, I am going to be coming back for more! read more

Took out one star from my previous rating after seeing the owner's comment. I also wrote a complaint to my company about the charge difference between What you listed in the yelp and sale in our campus. Hopefully, we won't see each otheragain. Update: The owner kept accusing me to give false "no chicken" comment. His logic is odd. He seems to have the guilty conscience. When did "almost no" equal to "no"? read more

I have tasted the food multiple times and each time I have loved it. Portions are perfect and spices are just right for everyones taste.

Recently hired Indian Express for an event and they were a pleasure to work with. They were responsive and accommodating. The guests were very pleased with how the food tasted from the curries to the sides. Looking forward to having your food again! read more

This food truck come quit often to Intuit campus. Am surprised they havent yet been kicked out. I was excited reading earlier review , so gave it a try...Almas, what a disappointment. The food quality was although ok, but, the quality, Extremely low. For a $11 plate, the food in box was not even worth $3...& the paratha was all chewy , uneatable...the curry tasted fine..the 2 extremely small chicken pieces...I will raise an issue to corporate to keep this truck which is scamming buyers out of the corporate campus read more

Indian Express - Extremely low quality for $11...Stay away from this food truck - Food Trucks Near Me - San Jose, California

The food was great and is reasonably priced. Tasted like authentic Indian food. Will definitely recommend the paratha- it was to die for! The owners are kind and helpful, serving each plate with a smile! read more

Beware of this owner who can't take feedback constructively and calls his customers GARBAGE....a note to the owner....if you have the guts, reply in public rather sending replies privately. Then we will see how much customers u will get. Update on 9/17/17 This is what the owner replies in Private message to me: Since it's clear you don't understand how economics works, I will explain it to you: a business has costs and thus prices their food high enough to sustain the business and pay for the cost of employees, ingredients etc. In America, especially as a small business competing in the Bay Area, you have to price food relatively high to survive. If you think $17 is too expensive for two meals, you can go back to India and eat the street food or to your nearest McDonald's where you can find real garbage, low quality food, but at least you'll get it cheap. "You ate ate my food and said it was garbage, so I called you garbage, because you have no sense of reviewing, if $8 and $10 is expensive for you than you should go grab the food from garbage and eat that's free, I saw all your reviews that's all stupid shit, you said $15 highly expensive for thali? You should not go to the restaurant instead go to the restaurant ask for left over food they'll give you for free." ============================================================= To the owner, ur food reflects ur way of handling customers and that's the reason ur food is what it is. If you can't take feedback constructively and rather behave badly with customers, am sure ur business is headed downhill. Good Luck read more

This is my favorite food truck I can feel that I had amazing food the quality is good

The truck came by near eBay today, I just thought to try it out. Checked out the prices were between 6$-10$ on average. They serve variety of south and north indian. As i like little bit spicy food, i tried Kothu (Minced) Paratha, which tasted reasonably good. Best part was it was prepared from scratch right there on the spot. Quantity was big, might require some decoration. Overall great taste and value for your bucks! try it yourself. read more

This food truck is one of my all time favorites. I have tried and liked all of their food items, and especially their chicken biryani and kothu Parotta are very tempting. Both are definitely very special and would prefer to have it on anyday. Kothu Parotta is one of its kind that you can find in the bay area, freshly made and very tasty. I tried their veg biryani once and it was very tasty too, haven't had such a veg biryani anywhere else in the bay area. The owner is very friendly and a very nice guy. He interacts well with all his customers and treats everyone well. Would definitely recommend to try food from this truck. read more
