    Pollo, carnitas, chorizo and pollo 75¢ asada tacos!  :0)
    Ivan S.

    Had the time to hit up Jessie's after an over 300-mile road trip to San Joaquin valley and back to the Bay Area. I had the opportunity to drive/road trip 3 cars in one day and be invited to lunch! HA! SUV's are a whole 'nother animal. I got a fusion of tacos, al pastor, carnitas, pollo and carne asada. I thought the red sauce was hella f#?n spicy it burned my tongue. I could have asked what the spice level so yeah, I'll ask next time at a taco truck. haha. The meats besides the chorizo were all cooked well and no luke warm meat, they all taste fresh and ready to eat. The tortilla was nice and not overly crispy or oily the tortilla did not fold in and didn't spill meat all over the place. Perfect tacos to feed a murder of crows! Enso forever! CASH. Locals only. Seating inside the restaurant. Kites and roses. "To be creative means to be in love with life. You can be creative only if you love life enough that you want to enhance its beauty, you want to bring a little more music to it, a little more poetry to it, a little more dance to it" - Osho

    Consistently good! Other trucks on crowslanding are good too but Jessica's always clutch. Just a few photos because the food speaks for itself Our go to order: -Burrito Supreme half asada half tripa (crispy) -Quesadilla best on crowslanding imo -Tacos use to be .50 but it's still a deal at .75 -Extra salsa More photos on IG @the_bottomless_pit

    It's been 11 yrs since i first discovered them and they've only raised their price by a quarter...$0.75 for asada, pastor, and carnita tacos...and they dont skimp on the meat...best deal anywhere...and it taste good...always my go to stop when i pass my modesto even if I'm not stopping in modesto because they're so closed to the freeway exit

    The grilled jelepano was DA bomb, so were the tacos
    Maggie L.

    $0.50 tacos you say?? Yes, the basic tacos (asada, carnitas, pastor and chicken?) are $0.50 each. The lengua (tongue) and tripas (fried intestine) was $2.50 each, but the filling was about 3 times more than the basic ones. I recommend the tripas and pastor, and I especially like the grilled jelepanos that come with the tacos for free. The truck parked outside of this banquet space when I was there. There was no AC (need I say?) but at least there was a shaded place to sit.

    Delicious Tacos
    Olivia K.

    So my husband has been raving about this place for years that this is his college's life haunt. These tacos were so delicious and while inflation has hit them from his college years of $.50 to now of $.75 they are still so delicious and incredible. Grateful for the opportunity to enjoy.

One afternoon in Hayward, my family and I showed up right at 6 PM, exactly at closing time. We had just left a family party but purposely held our appetite because our favorite Puerto Rican food truck was finally back in town. My wife and I were married in Old San Juan, and Puerto Rico will always hold a special place in our hearts. We even travel back to the island with our kids whenever we can. When Chef Darren saw how disappointed we were that we had missed them, he didn't turn us away. Even though they were already closed, he fired the grill back up and blessed our family with an incredible meal. That level of hospitality, heart, and genuine Puerto Rican warmth is rare. The food was absolutely amazing as always, authentic flavors that instantly take us back to the island, but the kindness and service meant even more to us. We'll always support Boriqua Kitchen. Truly the best Puerto Rican food in the Bay Area, served by people who treat you like family.

I stumbled upon this place one day while doing my random walk, so you KNOW I had to give this place a try. I had went in upon opening time, so my wait was a little bit, but I was not complaining because you know what they say: "Greatness comes when you build them up one by one." I got their hamburger with the extra cheese, and curly fries. The patty was extra juicy, and the brioche buns were toasted really well. I especially like how they added on the cheese after the patty was marinated on the grill for quite a while, but not too long to the point all of the juice was sucked up. The only down side to the food: the prices. Be prepared to spend quite a bit on lunch if you decide to go to this place, because they do end up charging quite a bit more than what the regular places around Downtown would. But the IPA beers make up for it, so it's also worth a bang for your buck. Hospitality was pretty top-notch -- my order was taken in an orderly fashion, and they even apologized for the wait as well. I hope Scratch Cookery stays around for a long while so that people can try out such majestic wonders this establishment has to offer! Ambiance was great, and I'd definitely be back again!

I kept hearing about their hot chicken sandwiches for years, and we finally made the trek to check them out. The Good: * Friendly service * Prices aren't too bad considering the portion size and flavor. * Outdoor dog-friendly seating * Craft brews in cans * Seven levels of heat for everyone from the spice-averse to the hardcore fire lover. * Chicken sandwiches are massive and delicious. And despite it being a breast, they kept it very juicy. * Really loved their fries; I'm not sure if they make them in-house or if they're frozen, but regardless, they're fantastic. The Meh: * Not much in the way of drinks except for the aforementioned beers and cans of soda. The Ugly: * It's located in DTSJ, so you'll most likely have to pay for parking. If you don't mind walking a few blocks, the 4th St Garage is free for the first 90 min. Conclusion: Great spot to get your spice on.

There was even some line dancing going on in the makeshift stage area at some point. Sound was not the greatest, the volume quite low even for a small event, but it was fine. There were about 8 food trucks to choose from, along with a few random vendor/service tents (like Bass Pro Shops). Decided on sliders and garlic fries from the Curveball food truck. The food was okay, good enough to satisfy my hunger (see my separate review on that). I snagged one of the few spots in the grass with shade on this hot evening, though they also have tables and seating here, partially shaded too. An actual restroom (not porta potties) on site, in the Fremont downtown event center building. Also, plenty of space available in the parking lot.

They also host a number of local vendors who also happen to give out prizes in these weekly raffles. It's an outdoor event at the Fremont Event Center and Plaza. There is outdoor seating with a few tables and a small field near the amphitheater. Bring a blanket, some seats, and even a table to enjoy an outdoor picnic with the friends and family. There's access to the clean and private bathrooms at the event center, which is a huge plus for families with young children. The food vendors (food trucks) were great and covered a diverse group of cuisine. Some more reasonably priced than others, but they were all very delicious and fresh. There's also a beer stand where they were collecting tips for scholarship programs. While dining and perusing the stalls and vendors, a DJ was broadcasting music and making announcements to bring attention to the raffle, upcoming community events, and vendors present. Very lively atmosphere! Overall, this is a fun family friendly outing and a great way to connect with local community members while benefiting local businesses. Definitely a must try and an anticipated return visit!

Rebecca was running the truck with her husband, and they were warm, friendly, and hard-working. That same care reflected in the food. Comforting flavors, big portions, and just what we needed. ---- Food ---- The hot dogs here are big, delicious, and fantastic value for the price. Wushu Dog: Loved this one. Inventive and delicious. Great texture, topped with pork sung and crispy cabbage, plus katsu sauce and Japanese mayo. Savory, crunchy, and satisfying. Sumo Dog: Japanese curry beef chili with cheese and fresh scallions. Hearty, comforting, and perfect for that chilly evening. Fried Foods: We didn't try, any but they serve fries and potstickers too. The fries seemed to be a crowd favorite at Great Notion Brewery next door (which is partnered with Dojo Dog). Definitely getting them next time. Rebecca told me she enjoys experimenting with new dishes, and the creativity shows. Looking forward to trying more! ---- Drinks ---- We didn't but drinks as we were enjoying beer at Great Notion, but Dojo Dog also offer drinks like milk tea. ---- Bonus ---- As I mentioned, they partner with Great Notion, one of our FAVORITE bars in the Bay with the best smoothie beers and stouts. You can bring your Dojo Dog inside and pair it with their awesome beers. Inventive hot dogs + beer = awesome evening ---- Vibe ---- Cute little food truck, family-run charm, friendly service, and an endearing hole-in-the-wall feel. The whole setup feels local and community-driven. In fact, it was originally created by Berkeley students. Very cool. ---- Overall ---- Amazing hot dogs, great beer next door, friendly owners, inventive sides, and a fun, low-key vibe. It will hit the spot every time. Can't wait to come back and try more from their menu!

Open air, a mix of food trucks, people hanging out, dogs everywhere, and that easy San Francisco energy where you can show up however you are and it fits. It never feels like a production, just a good place to land. We have eaten our way through a decent chunk of the trucks at this point, and that is half the fun. One day it is something messy and indulgent, the next it is lighter, but it always hits. Grabbing a drink, finding a spot at the picnic tables, and slowly settling in as the place fills up is kind of the rhythm. It is social without being overwhelming, lively without being chaotic. What keeps us coming back is how consistent it feels in the best way. It is easy, flexible, and always a good time whether you stay for an hour or lose an entire afternoon there.

Beyond that, the food and drinks are all food truck based. They are all quite good, and there's a wide variety of items. This also means a good variety for folks with different dietary needs, because they are mostly picking their own food. I have always enjoyed my time here, whether it's on company dime or if I'm just hanging out with friends. I do wish that there are more heaters around for the colder days but that's just life in the bay! It can be kind of cold and foggy all seasons here, so if you have a solid group of folks I'd recommend reserving a spot with a fire pit. One more note: parking can be tough. You either have to circle around for street parking, or rideshare here.
