Foodie Call SJ

Been on a weird fried chicken tear lately. I found out they were going to be near my work so I dropped by. There’s a friend chicken, waffle, and greens combo you can get. It has syrup and a tangy hot sauce on the side. Good flavor on the chicken, well fried. THe waffle is a bit on the flat side (needing leavening) but still decent. THe greens were the surprise. The hot sauce plays a good spicy. tangy counter to it all. If the portion were just a bit bigger so it’s not quite a full meal, but flavor is key

Chicken and waffles were awesome. Great service. Got the food fast. Taste REAL good. Well done!!!

About time I reviewed Foodie Call SJ (and about time they returned to Metro Drive).
Foodie Call isn’t a specialized truck — meaning that they don’t focus on one ingredient or style — so instead you are fortunate to get as close to a varied menu as you can get. Foodie call isn’t a fancy truck either — meaning no tv screen menus — so instead you are fortunate to get just good quality food. And most importantly, as they don’t have a fixed menu, you know their stuff is based on fresh ingredients.
Written on the ultra fancy brown art paper, the menu was a great mix of clearly fresh Americana favorites and even a healthy option: chicken n’ waffles (sweet and spicy), the loaded fries, the grilled chicken with veggies and orzo (see, healthy), and the pork carnitas tacos.
I’ve been trying to stay healthy, so I was eyeing the chicken and orzo, but the chef sold me on the pork carnitas tacos. I mean hard to beat 3 thick, juicy tacos where the pork is both moist and has the right amount of bark. The orange sauce was also really good and the last taco had mop up duty. And at $ 7 is cheaper than some salads in the area.
While it seems like the trucks are starting to come back to metro, I’m glad I got to sway at least two other co-​workers to grab food. One did the smartest thing and got the tacos with the grilled chicken instead (and he enjoyed them) and the other raved about the yummy chicken orzo.
Be on the look out for this truck (and I’ll still hope to try their Best Pork Belly BLT, Pork Chop Banh Mi Sandwich, and Cali Cheesesteak).

Hubby and I went to the Bacon Festival in downtown San Jose. We tasted food from several different trucks (they all were really good). We got a macaroni & bacon stuffed poblano pepper at Foodie Call. It was really good! We also got the chicken n’ waffles, and sliders. I would eat here again.

Awesome food! Great service! Can’t wait to join them for a meal again soon! The Mac-​a-​Reno at the bacon festival was to die for!!!

I ordered the Chicken ‘n Waffles and the Carnitas BLT with the addition of fried chicken ($ 3 extra). This isn’t Fast Food. I waited about 10 minutes for my order, but that was reasonable since they cook everything to order. The wait was totally worth it: The guys are friendly and accommodating, the food was nicely seasoned, and most importantly, it was delicious! Can’t wait for them to come back again!

I went to Foodie Call when it was parked at Pet Food Express in Campbell last weekend. They were providing yummy lunches to those attending an adoption fair in the adjacent parking lot. The menu included a Carnitas BLT, a Classic Burger and their signature Chicken and Waffles! I was so happy with my sandwich and really feel that it was a good value considering it was jam-​packed with carnitas and bacon. I will be keeping an eye out for this truck in the future.

Very friendly service and good food with very simple ingredients. I will go back for more!
