Fremont Street Eats

A food truck mafia event taking place in downtown Fremont, weekly through October. DJ playing a mix of mainly pop and hip hop music through the speakers, from oldies to songs from the last decade, including My Girl, Blurred Lines, and Andy Grammer's Keep Your Head Up. 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. This is a pretty low-key community event, free to attend and grab a bite to eat, and just hang out for an hour or two.

What a fun experience! Apparently the city of Fremont hosts this every Friday during the warm summer months and invites a variety of food trucks via Food Truck Mafia. 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!

Family friendly, up to 8-10 food trucks each Friday evening and DJ entertainment. Great opportunity to try some of the bay areas best food trucks! Hosted by the Fremont Chamber of Commerce, who has a beer and wine booth! Bring blankets to chill out on the grassy lawn or bring lawn chairs to hang out and watch the entertainment. Or even show some of your dance moves!

Fremont Street Eats is currently located in the Fremont Library parking lot. The Food Truck Mafia websites and social medias update the trucks that will be here. Lots of space in between trucks and walk around.

Wednesday's!!! The Niles Plaza! From 5pm to 9pm.They had DJ Zack and great trucks! Can't wait until next Wednesday! P.S- They are on Stevenson near the Smart and Final on Friday's!

I love food truck mafia organization! Every Wednesday in Niles town, such a perfect setting there. I go every Wednesday to see what good trucks is there and listen to the dj play good music perfect environment for hump day! And u gotta try O My Crepes. The family the runs it, is soo nice great customer service. Their crepes are soo good my favorite is called the sara crepe (named after his daughter). Its a smores crepe! Delicious! Love this event!

I am a regular at Food Truck Mafia of Fremont from last summer. They used to set it up on Capitol Ave in between State and Hastings. Recently moved to the Town Fair Plaza. I love this event. First of all its fun for kids - lots of music, activities and of course food. The time just fly by if you go there. It wasn't that convenient when it was conducted on Capitol Ave. But looks like they have found a great place for this at Town Fair Plaza. I will start with the ambience- lots of lights and music the dome. They have arranged a lot of seats to sit and relax while having your food . They do have an amazing DJ. You could see people dancing for the popular numbers. Feel free to join them, kids would love that. They used to have at least 7-8 food trucks every Friday. I have seen lesser numbers during the fall time. Otherwise you will have pretty good options. Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Mexican and Indian food trucks are quite regular there. Often you will see Mediterranean and Burger/Sandwich, Nepalese trucks as well. Options are in plenty every week. They used to arrange a few games for the kids as well.On a Friday evening, if you want to relax a little with your family/friends, this is a great option. Shame that its only in Summer-Fall timeframe. Please try it out, its worth it.

Wow. It was almost not worth the drive. There were only 4 trucks that showed up. Maybe this is normal for the quaint little area known as the Alvarado Niles District.In any case, I made the drive and decided to try my luck. While I was waiting for the event to begin, 5pm, I decided to do a little menu checking online. Out of the Cave seemed to have some healthy choices, so I ventured there.It seems like the rest of this review should be for Out of the Cave. But I did want to mention that it's nice that the food trucks show up every Wednesday and offer up some unique eats.

In Fremont, Food Truck Mafia hosts the event called Fremont Street Eats! Every Friday on Capitol Ave between Liberty & State from 4:30-9:00 PM, a ton of food trucks park and serve hungry Fremont residents, who can enjoy yummy food truck food, music, chalk painting, line dancing, etc.! I'm really sad that I've lived one town over from Fremont and I didn't know that this event happened every Friday!This summer, I've been here twice and had a good time both times. There are so many options for both savory food and desserts that it can be overwhelming, but I'd rather have more than less! I would definitely recommend the garlic fries from Mario's French Dips and the kimchi tacos from Streets of Seoul! SO yummy! Also, I was lucky enough to catch Frozen Kuhstard there last time and was lucky to get their last matcha waffle cone of the day. Delicious! My only qualm with the event is that the food trucks do seem to run out of most of the their items if you come 2-3 hours after the start time so beware if you're searching for a specific food item!It's such a cute event and there's no entry fee and tons of parking! You should definitely come if you have the chance :)

Variety of food & beverage offered on Friday, September 6, 2024 was excellent! We chose Roadside Rotisserie & bought a whole chicken, 2 orders of spare ribs, and the half & half brussel sprouts/potatoes & 2 Kona shaved ice. All we bought were delicious! Service was great too! The location is clean with lots of parking space. A good time for family. Lots of music & friendly atmosphere while we were there. We'll definitely go again.
