Had Jury Duty and stopped for lunch here. Ordered the Cali Burrito with Guac! Great flavors and really good portion! I wanted to try the carne asada fries… we’ll see if I order it tomorrow for lunch

We got into San Diego a little after lunchtime & needed a quick bite. Lucy’s had a good rating & was due to close at 2. Being from San Diego but living in Texas for years, we were ready for some good California style Mexican food. We were not disappointed! The rolled tacos were perfectly crisp with delicious shredded beef, covered in lettuce, a mild Pico, guacamole & sour cream & cheese with a side of hot carrots. A delicious welcome back! I’m sorry I didn’t get pics. Delicious!!

Lucys is a great place for tasty Mexican street food in San Diego. I went for breakfast-the Machaca Burrito was tasty!
They have Salsa Verde, but no coffee.
I would definitely eat here again as the server was friendly, the food was served fast, and the flavors were the bomb!

I’ve been here a couple of times. The carne asada tacos cost $5.99, are huge, made with double corn tortilla, guacamole and pico de gallo, didn’t find them tasty, also tried it with the available red and green salsas, but it didn’t help. The milanesa torta was good, and tasted better with the salsas. The horchata water was good/ok. The cashier/server is nice and adequate. Place does not look appealing either inside or out. Great location, for the convenience of people at Civic Center, for which I’ll continue to check it out every once in a while and try something else.

Got 3 rolled tacos today. Only cheese comes on it. Saddest looking thing I’ve ever eaten. Asked for lettuce and they wanted to charge $1.50. What a joke. They need to learn to do little add ons for free, or for a decent, reasonable fee.
They really need to work on customer service for all of us local employees willing to come to them a couple times a week.

Ate lunch here since I had jury duty and it’s right up the street. I guess the burrito was decent but I’m spoiled by eating at Armando’s where there burritos are twice the size and over $3 cheaper. Wasn’t horrible but nothing special at all. Wasn’t worth the $12 I had to pay for it. ♂️

Lucy’s Taco Shop is located downtown on C Street a couple of blocks away from the San Diego Superior Court so it’s a perfect spot if you have jury duty. It’s a colorfully decorated business with a typical Mexican food menu. A lot of people take their food to go. The counter service was friendly and quick. I ordered a Carne Asada Quesadilla which, while not the best I’ve had in San Diego, was pretty good. It’s a solid choice if you are in the area for any reason. There isn’t any parking available so it seems like most of the customers are working downtown or walking over from the trolley.

Massive breakfast burrito with great made from scratch components. I tried the Rancho and the combination of chorizo, eggs, potatos and salsa plus extra salsa roja were delicious.

Amazing Mexican home style food. This is where the workers come because it reminds them of home cooking and that’s why I keep
Coming back! Chile relleno plate was the jam for me!

Great Mexican food all around. Smooth beans, flavorful rice. Two salsa to chose from , the red is a perfect companion and the green is super tangy and delicious. Very small shop with very big flavor.
