Mr. Shrimp

Life changing surf & turf quesadilla on a handmade corn tortilla.First bite, perfect blend of ingredients.Everything was fresh with excellent quality.Service was 5 star and both staff were super friendly and welcoming.The carne asada was charred perfectly,Juicy, tender, and meaty. No chewiness, just perfection.

This place is located on a busy street. I didn't know initially, but there are some parking spaces behind the truck and some street parking across. They have lots of tables in their dining area as well as some heated lamps. The area was real toasty. They have a sauce bar in the back with all the fixings you may need.I came with a group of 9 people at night and I'm surprised there weren't more people. It was our first time so our friends who've visited before ordered for us. We ordered two plates of ceviche, 20 shrimp tacos, 8 carne asada tacos, and a carne asada quesadilla. Before I get into the food, it's imperative for everyone to know just how kind the owners and workers are. Their hospitality is unmatched, truly. The stars of the show are the grilled octopus platters and the shrimp tacos. They serve handmade flour tortillas which are so fluffy and delicious. The grilled octopus was so well cooked and I couldn't believe how soft it was. We were able to cut the octopus with a plastic knife! I believe they only serve these on the weekends too. Their shrimp tacos were so flavorful and had a bunch of shrimp inside. Their mariscos overall were so well made.

Hands down THE BEST KETO TACOS in the Bay Area! They do cater to our low carb/ Keto diet needs. They have perfected the cheese tortilla. Flavors and ingredients are authentic and high quality, unlike other taco trucks. Our favorites are Emperor, Cabeza, Birria, Mar y Tierra, and vampiro keto tacos. Also their pulpo zarandeado is to die for. Good for 3-4 people.

Recommended this place by my cousin. They operate out of a truck in what is probably a permanent spot. I will mostly recommend the Shrimp Emperador Tacos and Birria Tacos. The Vampiro tacos have both beef and shrimp, but the beef overpowered the shrimp in my opinion. The regular Cameron Tacos were too basic in comparison to the Emperador so I'd stick with the latter. I've had the tostada but it's so loaded (not in a bad way), the tostada was getting hard to stay crispy so I'd go for the ceviche next time. Their sauce bar has 3 different hot sauces including this deep spicy one that I really love. There's parking in the back or my husband and I have been lucky to get parking out front. I would come back for the grilled seafood they have on the weekend! Service - 4 / Ambiance - 3 / Food - 4 / Price - 3.5

Absolutely phenomenal food truck and phenomenal service! Mr. shrimp is situated on an unassuming cross street, and even though it is a food truck, you can still have a lovely dining experience with the dining area that they have set up. It is well lit with string lights and covered by Pop-up tents.The man who took my order was extremely friendly, and he even gave me a sample of the different shrimp options while I was waiting. He brought the food out personally, and it was extremely fresh and very warm. It was a huge portion, well wrapped And easy to open.I got the shrimp burrito, and it was absolutely phenomenal. It had avocado, rice, beans, and lots of shrimp. It was a bit heavy on the beans, but delicious nonetheless. I will definitely be back.

Mr Shrimp is our favorite taco spot in San Jose. This is the go to spot we take friends when they visit & IT HITS EVERY TIME!!!We always get the shrimp tacos, quesobirria tacos, and ceviche mixto (with fish, shrimp, scallop, and octopus). The tortillas are all handmade and everything is well seasoned without being overly oily or greasy. I never order agua frescas because they're way too sweet but Mr Shrimp has a refreshing af jimaica agua Fresca that isn't that sweet and slaps!!Last time we came we got the grilled octopus - BEST OCTOPUS WE EVER HAD!! The octopus was so tender we could cut it with a plastic knife!!!! The last time we had octopus was at The GrandView restaurant and this was 100x better. Our other friend who just came back from Greece & had it said Mr. shrimp's was better. Jesus. I'm salivating thinking about it. Our group was quiet af eating it and THATS how you know how good it was. They only have octopus on the weekends so make sure you time your visit then haha.Sauces, radish, onion, lemon, cilantro are self serve next to the bar. The owner is so so awesome and so so friendly. The recipes are all his own (he said the quesabirria is his wife's and the tortillas are also his wife's recipe). Mr Shrimp has a place in my heart & it's always on our recommended places to go!!

WOW where to start... FOOD is amazing! the service is great! those guys always make us feel super welcomed, and always are able and happy to adjust their dishes to my diet needs. I asked them if they could switch their tortilla for a grilled cheese made one. The outcome was fantastic! i love their emperador Keto taco. and pretty much everything i tried there is on point! 10 out of 10! The place is laid back and i really felt like I was back in Mexico. all and all i always go there for my seafood fix!

Excellent food and a very friendly customer service. I recommend the chicken burrito it was fresh and yummy.

Came to Mr. Shrimp and let me tell you that the food is delicious I had tacos,oysters,vampiro and Quesa birrias and I was so satisfied also the place is operated by the owners got to meet them and they are super friendly. Awesome place to have some tacos and a michelada.. I also tried their shrimp and fish tacos and they're amazing specially cuz they do homemade tortillas definitely recommend this place per cent

Great food. What can I say the food is outstanding. You will not be disappointed. It was well worth the 45-minute drive to get there. I was a little skeptical because it was so far and the last three places that we have tried have been nothing near what they were recommended. But I have to say this place was great and we will be going back this place was great and we will be going back
