The food is always fire. The sauce are all good. Not just one like some places. The burritos are massive, even consume is fire. Cool spot if you eat inside. And Luis has top tier customer service. Love this place.

Cashiers are always friendly. Food is always hot and consistently good. They don’t cheap out and use fatty/poor quality meat. The surf and turf and chilaquiles burritos are my go to. They even give my dog a little carne asada every now and then which is super kind.

If I could give this spot a 6 out of 5 I would ! Came here with my buddies and we shared our food. We first started out with Birria fries, definitely worth having! Then we got the hot Cheeto burrito, the chipotle sauce in the burrito was so yummy ! All of our favorite item was the Doritos carne asada nachos ! The carne asada here has so much flavor, we each got micheladas and some ceviche so fire ! Lots of seating inside & outside. The staff was great helping us out with the menu suggesting items ! Definitely coming back

I would give it 10 if there was an option! We had their quesabirria, shrimp cocktail, and guacamole chips. Everything tasted freshly made, right down to the tostatas and the chips. They were thin, savory, and crispy. Shrimp cocktail was our favorite from any other place we have been into in San Diego! It’s definitely our new favorite Mexican restaurant, and we can’t wait to try other items on the menu!
Additionally, our cashier was friendly and sweet! Great customer service!

Great burritos! I highly recommend the San Diego burrito, it has Carne Asada,bacon, fries, cheese, guacamole, and chipotle sauce. Their tortillas are really delicious and so is their horchata. They have a drive through as well as plenty of seating, inside and out.

Ordered via Grubhub and picked up our order which didn’t take too long! I’m not sure if they offer dine-in right now but they do have a drive-thru and a seating area outside. We ordered the plain chips, birria, quesobirria, adobada combo plate, and a pollo asada wrap (not pictured bc my bf was too hungry and ate before I snapped a pic hahaha).
Their birrias live up to the hype! My bf really liked his wrap especially the chipotle sauce. And I love how well their adobada is seasoned. Definitely glad this place is just nearby so I can satisfy any mexican food cravings

This hidden gem was a pleasant find on a drive through San Diego. We decided on Mexican and this place did not disappoint. Chips and guac were amazing, the diablo shrimp was hot and tasty, and my burrito was so big I was struggling to finish it.
The service was also great, it felt like a family dinning room!
Definitely recommend anyone stop by and try that San Diego burrito!

I had the TJ Adobada tacos and ordered fish tacos for my friends. These tacos were stuffed and so tasty. New taco spot for me in La Mesa. Staff is very friendly and they even have a drive through if you do not want to get out of your car!
