I LOVE THIS PLACE! Came here twice during my stay in Oslo. Was a great little spot. Just a little…read morewindow at a kiosk and you basically get to build your own dog. They have a bunch of toppings like caramelized onions, raw onions, jalapeños, fried onions, pickled onions, chili, relish, all sorts of stuff basically. I got my first dog with homemade mustard, ketchup, caramelized onions, and crispy fried onions. IT WAS SOOO GOOD the crispy onions with the caramelized onions. Then I came back a couple days later and the guy remembered me. I asked for a double dog (bc I thought it was two dogs in one bun) but they gave me two separate dogs so I got one with mashed potatoes and pickled onions and my same order from the other day. My og order was better but the taters were good, coulda used some extra pickled onions. I also got these ones with the potato wrap bc I felt like I had to try it. Definitely not needed with the bun but they were good.

They could speak both English and Norwegian which is helpful because there wasn't an English menu that we could see unfortunately. I recommend the spicy hotdog, and then the sour! All were good though, sat at the little chairs around the stand to eat. 3 hotdogs for ~18usd.

4 Gringos is a revolución! Not only is it the first taco truck, it also serves enlightened tacos…read more This is no TacoBell-style fredagstaco with old ground beef, grated Norvegia and hard Eldorado shells. At 4 Gringos they are serious about their quality proteins: marinated beef, pulled pork, chicken, or refrito beans, and dress each one with its own character. The combination is explosive - each juicy bite is extremely flavorful, and anyone used to classic "Nor-Mex" would be dizzied by the spectra of taste of these badass tacos. The usual run of info: you can order big snack 2 soft-shell tacos for 70 noks (hipster), up to large meal 4 for 130 noks (fiesta) with a choice of beef/pork/chicken/beans, served out with a set of three/four toppings of their design. The beef is probably the best, the pulled pork second. They also have toasted quesadillas and mixed burritos. You eat outdoors without a table: while sitting around Youngstorget's fountain is nice in the summer, it can be less pleasant in cold winters. It's not perfect: the luscious toppings can be a little too messy for a one-handed taco dining, and make the taco shells too soggy to hold it together. Many trucks in USA serve up double tortillas for this exact problem, and they could have done that here. Also, I do think they are victims of their own creativity and being overly complex. Each taco had 5-6 flavors going on, and I prefer 4-5 for cleaner palate. Or, you should not order a fiesta of all 4 flavors, like I did! :) The food is competitive with some of the best sit-down tacos around. Taco Republica may have better-made cochinita pibil but they cost a fortune, whereas 4 Gringos is affordable and unique in giving what we the people need more of - a pioneering no-frills, damn good food truck.

Two tacos cost NOK 70. You can choose from chicken, beef and vegetarian (some kind of beans) at the moment, and pork is to be added to the menu shortly. They can also make it as a quesadillas. Additionally they offered chicken chili soup for NOK 60. When I ordered two tacos I got a little taster of the soup to warm myself on. A welcoming treat in the cold. They are open every Saturday now, but told me they plan to expand to Thursdays and Fridays as well, and in the long term they hope to stay open 7 days a week - all year.

Yummy!!! I didn't expect a food truck could have so good food! I had the Austin burger with sweet…read morepotato fries. The burger is not the largest one but the meat is good and the bun is more than descent. The ingredients are fresh and you can feel the food is made with love. Or at least I did! The sweet potato fries were delicious! Don't forget to try those ones! The service was good and friendly and quite fast for being on a food truck! I love the colour of the truck and how they have paid attention to little details on it. It's a smart idea and if you ever see it in front of you don't hesitate to try it. It often can be found in the beginning of Aker Brygge. Keep an eye for it!

We visited the Grunerlokka neighborhood and decided to go to Mathallen Oslo to pick our dinner. It…read morewas located inside a nice building next to a small water fall, river and park. It was easy to get to via the tram from our city centre hotel. There was already a small crowd inside as we navigated around. Italian, multiple burger joints, tapas were some of the busy spots that night. We decided on Helt Vilt with their wide selection of game meats from moose, reindeer, to boar to try some unique red meats. They also had a nice seating area that was available so we got the last table.. We ended up ordering the angry moose and wild boar burgers. The patties were a little over 5oz, juicy and lots of flavors from the meat and toppings. The angry moose burger also came with a nice kick mostly when biting down on the jalapeño slices. Both were filling but wouldn't have minded more meat considering these were each over US $20+. Service was just ok (maybe too busy) and we ended up walking to the front to close our tab.

We walked from the harbor ferry to Mathallen for a relaxed bite and a few drinks. The route we took…read morewas a bit off the beaten path, and not the most scenic or efficient. I'd recommend taking a taxi instead. Once we arrived, we headed straight to Hopyard, where the beer and cider selection was excellent, offering good variety and a friendly, laid-back vibe. Then it was on to Helt Vilt for a moose burger, which definitely lived up to the hype. Mathallen gets lively later in the day, and seating can be a bit tight, but the energy is fun and welcoming. A great spot to sample Oslo's local food and drink scene.

My only criticism is that there isn't a double Hawaii burger in the menu (although I might ask for…read moreone today). Great burger if you are looking for a quick 30-70 kroner bite that will absolutely fill you up. Get sauce, sprinkle the fry prefer on everything, and don't worry, because the line moves quick. I recommend The Hawaii burger with pineapple and the double cheeseburger. If you order the big burgers, don't forget napkins because the paper wrappers (which help keep the cost of that burger so low) are one-size-fits-"most" :-)

They don't usually do flavored lattes but the barista offered to put some of their home made caramel in our lattes. Omg it was divine!!
