Found this place on Yelp and decided to give it a try since this is my favorite cuisine. They have ordering automated so I don't think they accept cash. Ordering was easy. Grabbed a Chicken Shwarma wrap and a drink. I did need to enter my name and number for order info. Don't get confused and walk away like I did. He will call your order number out, it's not gonna show up on your phone. Anyway, the wrap was delicious and seasoned well. It was $13.99 but felt the prices justified the portion. I ate that alone with a drink and was satiated well into the day. I definitely reccomend you try it out. The gentleman who is the chef, was also friendly when we briefly spoke. read more

Twist&Taste - It's on the side of the liquor store. You'll see it as you turn in if you're coming from the West/Campbell. - Mediterranean Near Me - San Jose, California

I picked up a Donner Wrap from here yesterday. It's in the back of a gas station and easy to miss. The young gentleman who took and made the order was great, he's from Azerbaijan and very friendly and personable. The wrap was good and flavorful. My only nit was it was a pretty small portion and $18 (incl tip) for pretty much a snack as opposed to a meal was a little off. read more

Twist&Taste - Doner sandwich on bread. So good!! - Mediterranean Near Me - San Jose, California

Piertaharsh from Azerbaijan and his partner is offering Mediterranean food in this food truck at the back of gas station Andoil. They also have a couple tents setup nearby for people to enjoy the food fresh and hot. We saw a picture of fish burger on the food truck but didn't see it on the menu, the staff told us that they change their menu weekly. That's a hook, someday we have to try the fish burger. This week they are making lentil soup fresh daily. OMG, I've never had a lentil soup that doesn't look green or mushy but tastes so warm and delicious! It tastes so creamy and rich with or without the lemon squeeze. We ordered all 3 beef choices, the donna bread, the donna wrap as well as the donna plate (with rice). Each one comes with lots of sliced beef and a rich creamy white mayo like sauce. They tasted fresh, sumptuous, rich and full of flavors. The staff are super friendly and hospitable. They showed us the wrap, the Ayran while we were not sure what they were. And while we were waiting for our food, the evening wind picked up and it was getting cold. So I hid in the tent. Then out of nowhere, they scooped up 2 bowl size lentil soup and offered to us with complement while we waited for our food. After that, they offered baklava and hot tea while we continued the wait. It took about 15 minutes wait to get our food, which wasn't too bad, but the hospitality was heartwarming. The prices are very reasonable and I can see that they could probably speed up the food preparation process, but they are learning to manage customer satisfaction, so overall I am very happy with the visit. PS: They charge a 3% credit card fee. read more

I ordered the Loaded Doner Box. It comes with rice, fries, doner meat, veggies, and signature sauces. It was really difficult trying to clarify if the sauces contained dairy which was concerning for me. Luckily, the sauce was provided on the side and not in my bowl. From what I experienced, the kiosk did not allow for any customizations to any of the items we ordered in case you need to ask for no onions or some other adjustment. The meat in the dishes was very flavorful whether it was chicken or doner meat. Doordash/Uber eats does not match with the items available on the kiosk in person 1-to-1 which is unfortunate if you're trying to order online. I think ChowBus is the service they use for their kiosk because that online ordering system reflects what I saw in person. read more

I had an interesting experience here. I was in the mood for shawarma and they have it. When the person took my order, he asked if I wanted to chicken or beef; there's only chicken listed on the very brief price menu, so I was surprised by this, but went with chicken. Fries are pictured on the truck but are not on that price menu, so I asked if those were available. They were but I had zero idea how much they were going to cost and I don't like ordering things blind like that. (They're $4 for the record.) He asked if I wanted a drink but as the menu sheet of paper only said "soda drinks" and I'm particular, I declined. I was told it would be 15 minutes so I went back to my car, as the only table I saw was already occupied by a gentleman and I didn't feel like socializing. I came back and my food was ready. The guy in the truck kindly tried to give me a free soda, but it was full sugar Coke so I had to decline. It was really nice of him, though. I didn't particularly want to eat in my car but the table was now even more occupied, so I poked around when I saw a small tarp structure off to the left of the truck. Turns out there was a table, chairs and lighting, which I didn't even notice earlier. and it was open, so I sat there. It was good to have some protection from the chilly wind. As I started to unpack my meal, a totally different guy came over and handed me a container out of the blue. It was the Turkish yogurt drink they also sell, Ayran, which I'd never tried. They really wanted me to have something to drink with my wrap! I gratefully accepted it but as I already had a drink with me and knew nothing about it, I saved it to take home. The wrap itself was a good size and I loved the lavash-style bread, though it could have been toasted more. It was positively packed with chicken and pickles and I think maybe some fries (I'd asked for no onion) but sadly the chicken lacked any flavor apart from maybe salt. It was moist but bland and I was disappointed. I've never had chicken shawarma with chunks of chicken before. Usually it's sliced off a spit, but theirs is different. Maybe the spit cooking imparts more flavor? The fries were serviceable but uninteresting; I'd have preferred them more cooked, and would ask for that next time. I would suggest that they expand on their sheet of paper menu with more detail, perhaps, and have more than just the single page in the service window. My only other observation is that there were a lot of men seemingly just hanging around, not another woman in sight, the whole time I was there. Not a problem but a little odd and might give some women pause. I'm willing to try it again for maybe a different meal. It wasn't a home run for me but it has potential. read more

Unfortunately I have to update my review. We went today at lunch. It took 40 min to be served and the sandwiches were dry and slapped together. My son received a wrong order and I saw my beef come out of the microwave (think it was dry scraps bc I heard him tell the next person they were out of beef). I wish he would have just offered chicken with me standing there. Disappointed after a great first meal. With the service getting worse and quality poor, I'm not sure I would go back. read more

Halal, Beef wrap was tasty! I liked the addition of fries inside. Chicken sandwich though felt very dry and crunchy. This is a food truck, so there's limited seating outside read more

Twist&Taste - Mediterranean Near Me - San Jose, California

I agree with the chorus of Yelpers singing this place's praises -- the flavors are outstanding! You simply cannot go wrong with any of their doners, beef/lamb or chicken. The meat is incredibly juicy, tender, and bursting with deliciousness. Generous portions, with affordable prices, service is outstanding - Sanna? (might be the owner), and abundant parking 10-15 cars. While the doner can occasionally lean a touch dry, it's a minor note hardly worth mentioning amid such excellence. Authentic Azerbaijani style at its finest -- a genuine delight! Highly recommended! read more

Here's a polished review that keeps your energy but reads naturally: Twist & Taste is an absolute hidden gem. I got hooked after my first bite. The location is perfect--super close to the freeway--and the portions you get for the price are honestly unbelievable. My go-to is the Chicken Döner Wrap. Do yourself a favor: add extra mayo and thank me later. The chicken is juicy, packed with flavor, and loaded into the wrap. Fresh veggies, soft bread, and everything just comes together perfectly. And don't skip the Ayran--it's the perfect refreshing drink to go with it. That combo is a steal for what you pay. If you're driving by and craving a real döner, Twist & Taste is the spot. Easily one of my favorite places now. 10/10, I'll definitely be back. read more

This is the only place in the entire United States where I've tasted döner that tastes like döner in Turkey. Maybe it's even better. The beef & lamb taste here is simply DIVINE. I couldn't believe it. The guys running the truck are also the nicest people. They offered us baklava and tea afterwards, and are just great people. After a disappointing visit to Shawarmaji nearby, where the meat tasted like nothing and was blasted with a bunch of sauce to make up for it, this was a taste of fresh air. The parking lot where the truck is located is kind of rough with gigantic potholes, so be careful. The area isn't super great either, but for a quick stop in this quiet corner, it's 100% worth it. read more

First time coming here from out of town and wanted to grab a quick bit and saw on yelp Twist & Taste a Turkish shawarma food truck. I ordered chicken shawarma wrap with tomatoes, pickles and garlic sauce and a lamp and beef shawarma with garlic sauce, tomatoes, and pickles. The owner of the food truck was very friendly and kind. The food was absolutely delicious!!! Loved every bite that I took. I definitely 100% recommend this to anyone who is local or out of town looking to taste the authentic food of turkey. You will never be disappointed!!! wish the location of the food truck was set near plazas, outlet malls, restaurants, businesses to get a better ambiance for others to come around and taste the delicious food. read more

Twist&Taste - Doner sandwich - Mediterranean Near Me - San Jose, California

South Bay desperately needs a great Turkish spot, and I'm really hoping these folks eventually open a brick‑and‑mortar nearby, maybe Santa Teresa Main Street area. For now, it's a food truck with outdoor seating but the food is absolutely restaurant‑quality. I ordered the Beef Doner Bread and wow... easily one of the best I've had. The bread had that perfect contrast: crisp shell, soft interior, and sturdy enough to hold a very generous amount of meat. Flavorful, juicy, and the sauce and veggies tied everything together. Next time I'm asking for extra because it was that good. My family went for the Beef Doner plates, which came with rice, a big portion of doner, and salad leaves and cut veggies. The dressing on those salad leaves was shockingly good, not just balsamic, maybe something with a hint of berries or fruit. Whatever it was, we were obsessed. Once the greens were gone, we started dipping the cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions into the leftover dressing. Zero shame. We also tried the chicken wrap, and it held its own. Tender chopped chicken, a tangy white sauce with a little kick, fries tucked inside, all wrapped in a thin wheat tortilla. Super satisfying. Service was genuinely kind, especially for a food truck. They even surprised us with free baklava, which was greatly appreciated. Generous portions (especially the meat), great flavors across the board, and pricing that's totally fair for the Bay Area. We're already planning our next visit and still crossing our fingers for a South Bay brick‑and‑mortar someday. We will be taking pictures next time, we fell into the food before anyone thought of taking pictures. read more

Halal food for budget friendly price, suuper good. Underrated and hidden gem, definitely recommend.

The best Doner sandwich I've ever had in the South Bay. Its tender meat and fresh vegetables tastes amazingly good. If you like it juicy order lavash doner, if not then bread doner sandwich would be great choice! Also they deliver it really fast. Also I like how clean and tidy they keep their food truck! Great work! Happy to have this place in our neighbourhood! read more

I used to live in Germany where they have the best Doner (other than Turkey of course) so I wanted to see if this place tasted the same. Although not fully the same, the beef doner was delicious. I also was given two free pieces of baklava which I didn't realize until I got home. I really appreciated the gesture. read more

Twist & Taste was a really solid find. I got the chicken shawarma and it was honestly super good tons of flavor and a good amount of food for the price.

Twist&Taste - Lamb shawarma was delicious! Fresh ingredients, great flavor, and generous portions. A hidden gem I'll gladly return to - Mediterranean Near Me - San Jose, California

So I waited over 30 minutes after ordering to get a chicken shawarma. There was a person nearby that looked they had been waiting a long time also and was getting anxious about the wait. One guy working the truck so I was being patient. Going off the pictures and reviews I thought it would be worth the wait, but instead I got the saddest shawarma wrap I've ever had. No veg, just chopped chicken in a wrap with 2 slivers of onion if being generous. Dry, no sauce. I got ripped off oh well, it happens trying out new places. Hope they take the criticism to improve. I always support local when I can. read more
