Vihang MehtaJune 25, 2017Amazing selection of tacos with great flavors. All the veggie tacos are good but the chile relleno was my favorite.
rosa fernandezApril 14, 2015Holy cow! Or shall i say holy borrego?? The borrego taco is an explosion of taste in your mouth! As well as the rest. I know good street tacos...these are great city tacos.
JulieApril 7, 2017Small space (not a lot of seating) and generally long lines at dinner time, but quick service and great tacos. Chile relleno is delish!
Chris CegielskiAugust 23, 2017If you've been to Tacos El Gordo and love street tacos, then you'll really love it here. Great gourmet twist to a many favorite fillings.
Lauren FlemingFebruary 23, 2017Great options for vegetarians and vegans, probably the best options for non-meat tacos in town. Their meat tacos are delicious too.
Marcel CrudeleJune 26, 2019A really great collection of tacos and REALLY good salsa/condiment bar. I still haven't found my WOW taco joint in SD, but this will do until I do.
Maunil ChokshiApril 24, 2017Chile Relleno and Portobelo are great picks for vegetarians. The Michelada (lime+ice+tajim+beer) is a must try!- Chris LeeDecember 1, 2015Some of the best tacos I've ever had! $3.50 each, with generous portions of fish or meat. The mahi and the borrego (lamb) were fantastic.
Connie ChiuJanuary 17, 2016Everything is so so so delicious! Try the carnitas, mahi adobo, ahi tuna, el especial, but honestly can't go wrong with anything.
Diana TobeyAugust 29, 2014Pet friendly. They'll bring out a water bowl for your pup. Also, tacos have extremely interesting and flavorful toppings. Not cheap but not expensive either given the ingredients.
Conrad & Jenn R.August 27, 2014a fancy twist on tacos. also, Hess & Modelo on tap with assorted bottled beers and familiar soft drinks
Tori RivapalacioJune 10, 2016So. Good. Get El Especial, definitely. I sometimes LOVE the atun and sometimes it's only "yeah, that's good," so get that one twice. Ha!
AlfaOctober 12, 2015Boss got takeout for the office: my order was missing (two chile rellenos); and flour tortillas at aren't necessarily authentic when it comes to Mexican food.- Derek VelezJuly 5, 2014Had the Chile Relleno. Excellent!!! A big plus is having beer from Mike Hess on Tap. Turned my order from a to go to a eat in.
Kimberly QOctober 29, 2014Burrago taco was amazing! The lamb was so delicious and tender I'm still thinking about it! Definitely a spot to check out!
Stephanie WeiDecember 28, 2019Loved the Pescado and the Borrego. Would skip the Mexicali (too greasy). 2 or 3 tacos was more than enough
Diane SteinSeptember 22, 2018Try one of the new frijoles sides. One serving is big enough to share. They are delicious.
Paul SmithDecember 28, 2014Go to this place. Great, full tacos that are inexpensive. Great choices and flavor profiles.
- Dan PyatetskyOctober 27, 2020Veracruz Mahi is the best taco I’ve ever had in a while. Borrego is also very good.
Tar De La VegaMay 8, 2016The tacos are good but not the ordinary Mexican street taco. These are more gourmet taco type.
