Native San Diegan. BEST fresh, healthy grilled Mexican food I’ve tasted yet! Just try it for yourself once. You won’t regret it. Small menu put packs a lot of flavor! No parking in the immediate area; it’s downtown guys. Park at Horton Plaza and walk only 2 blocks; it’s free the first 3 hours. Don’t forget to validate your ticket at the nearest little black boxes throughout the mall.

Food was amazing and I am an odd orderer, but to say that this is one of my new stops in gaslamp is a huge deal. Add meat to quesadilla and enjoy. Friendly service as well and the tacos are great as well. Atmosphere was more than I expected when I saw the prices on a flyer, it was way above most taco spots I’ve been to in all of cali.

The carne asada was delicious. The food was incredibly fresh; the beans were tasty and didn’t contain any fattening lard, and the horchata was some of the best I’ve had! Will definitely make a trip back

Went for a casual dinner that evolved to a casual delicious dinner. What a gem of, simply said, simply great regional-centric Mexican food. It’s not your rolled tacos Cali-mex Mexican food; this is a classic joint with really good meats, beans, guac, tortillas and salsa.
Those are literally all the ingredients that comprise their menu (flan, beer and 1 dollar horchata notwithstanding) but they each bring an extraordinary amount of classic Mexican barbecue flavor (known as a parrillada).
To start we were given, on the house, toasted tortillas and a guacamole/ salsa and pico de gallo serving. All were on point, guacamole was especially delicious.
We ordered queso fundido as an appetizer. It is essentially cheese in a clay dish that has been baked so the top is crispy and toasted. It is also absolute gold. Pipirins is not an exception to that. Theirs is top notch.
To eat, I had the carne asada pipirins style (charcoal charred skirt steak) and it was amazing. It was a thin steak, grilled to taco doneness with the classic charcoal char marks – really gave it a rich flavor not likely to be found at any taco joint. It came with beans, and I’m a bean aficionado, that were clearly made in a clay pot. Classic.
My wife enjoyed the chicken skewers. Same effect on the chicken – a delicious char on each piece and the veggies that accompanied it on the skewer. She was also served beans.
All of our dishes we ordered were served with their homemade tortillas. There is an absolute difference in a freshly made tortilla that adds a level of quality to a Mexican restaurant. Pipirins tortillas are fresh, soft and a little chewy. They are white corn, served hot and with each entree and appetizer.
Lastly, the location is clean, welcoming and very friendly. Staff was very nice and you can tell they take pride in their restaurant – as they should as this is a winner for classic and straightforward Mexican food in San Diego. Doesn’t hurt that it doesn’t hurt your wallet either.
Tip: If you have the pleasure of dining here, I’m sure any menu item is delicious, but as a suggestion: get the queso, get the chorizo asado, and combine the two in a taco for guaranteed deliciousness. That’s my next meal, for sure. #notonmydietbutonmycheatmeal
Disclaimer: I’m Mexican, raised in Northeastern Mexico, not of the border. I’ve been many times to Guadalajara (the region of pipirins cuisine) and I enjoy a good taco and some simple Mexican food. I’m really happy that pipirins was able to deliver on that. I will definitely be back.

Great food in a relaxed atmosphere, but not ideal for large groups or split checks. We enjoyed the strip loin asada and chorizo asada. Flan was delicious as well.

The staff is super nice and the place is clean, but the food is not good. I really wish it was! However, the horchata is on point…not too sugary. 🙂
