Social Profile:

Roberto’s was the first, and continues to be the best. San Diego’s first walk up and drive-thru taco shop has set the standard for fresh, authentic and inexpensive Mexican food. A passion for good ingredients, friendly service and a welcoming environment is what made Roberto’s a pioneer of classic Mexican food over 50 years ago, and it is what keeps the famous taco shops thriving today. While always remaining loyal to traditional Mexican food, Roberto’s began as a family operated business in 1964 and continues to be family run, with 70 Roberto’s taco shops today. Roberto’s remains the pioneer in fast, traditional Mexican food with taco shops in California and Nevada.

Enduring counter-serve chain restaurant with a menu of down-home Mexican plates.

I received a fake response from Roberto’s at 8490 Desert Inn Road stating that Roberto’s put 3 strips of fish in their fish burrito…I noticed that Roberto’s deleted the response because Roberto’s does not put 3 strips of fish in their $10.82 fish burrito…

Roberto’s I want you to understand just because you deleted the response with your fake apology to me n most importantly explaining that you put 3 strips of fish in your burrito n (not one strip cut into 3 pieces) n you included a picture of the blue bag of fish that you use it’s ok….with Technology yes you deleted your response but rather by screenshot or what have you your response was captured because I didn’t trust you.

So please don’t think you’re smarter than me. Post a fake response then delete it. I definitely protected myself.

The first fish burrito that I receive or anyone I know receives with one strip of fish from Roberto’s especially during your night shift I will file a complaint n bring attention to the franchise since they are lying n cheating n charging customers $10.82 for a one strip fish burrito.

Like I stated if you can’t put the correct amount of fish in your $10.82 fish burrito then remove it from the menu across the board.

Roberto’s doesn’t know who is walking into any of their franchises or the customer’s occupation. Be careful how you treat all customers.

If I could give the Roberto’s at
8490 W Desert Inn Road less than zero I would. You’re charging customers $10.82 for a fish burrito with one strip of fish and so much pico de gallo that the fish gets lost. Stop lying and deceiving customers. If the Roberto’s Franchises can’t afford to put adequate enough fish in the burrito that they charge customers $10.82 including tax and have the nerve to ask for a tip before you checkout then take the fish burrito off the menu across the board.

No apologies… empathy… from the Roberto’s at 8490 W Dessert Inn Road…for what I experienced and got so sick.

I had never visited this Roberto’s. I actually went to the area to try the Thai food but the restaurant was closed on 2/10/2025. I glanced over and saw Roberto’s. I decided to give them a try because the Roberto’s in my area I’ve never had an issue. The gentleman who took my order and the woman who helped in getting my Burrito cut were awesome. After the cook cut the Burrito I noticed it was leaking and from the woman who asked the cook to cut the Burrito facial expression I know she saw that the Burrito was leaking also. I’ve never experienced anything like this from other Roberto’s and chalked it up to the cook didn’t wrap the Burrito properly and the Pico de Gallo.
When I arrived home and started eating the Burrito it taste rancid. I immediately opened one half of the Burrito and noticed one strip of fish and so much Pico de Gallo that I could’ve shared it with others. There was something white on the fish and dried out. Usually on my Burrito I have tartar sauce but I didn’t taste tar tar sauce and the fish had a terrible taste.
I got so sick and started vomiting. I believe it was food poisoning.
I have included pictures showing the one piece of fish…picture and video showing that I threw the Burrito that I paid $10.82 plus $1.64 tip for a total of $12.46 and a Burrito that was so disgusting I’m finally feeling better. I didn’t mind paying and tipping for the Burrito but at the same time I want to receive what I paid for and not have to waste my money and throw the Burrito in the trash. The cook was this tall gentleman dressed in black. If you see him ask for another cook to take care of your order.
What a waste of money and my time.

Grate spot, location wise is kinda odd but kinda not. Lots of parking, has wheelchair access.
Cleanliness in side and out. Staff is grate, friendly, and serve you as if at a sit down restaurant. Not too busy and Door dash orders are always on point.

First their deep fryer wasn’t working so there was a ton of things they couldn’t make, I’m like why would you even open at all if your restaurant is that crippled? Second, they tried to charge me $7 just for some sauce to turn a burrito into a wet burrito. And probably the worst is that the woman at the cash register did not speak any english so it was very hard to communicate with her. Seriously? You’re dealing with an American public and you don’t speak any English at all? WTH?

I’ve been coming here recently because the first few times they made the food better than I’ve had it at any other location.

On 10/9/25, I purchased Carne Asada Fries, Asada Chimichanga, Chile Relleno Burrito, a quesadilla, and 3 churros.

The chile relleno burrito was the worst chile relleno I’ve ever had. There must have been 100 seeds in the burrito, making it inedible. Unfortunately, I did not have the energy to drive all the way back to the restaurant for a refund.

After 5 or so times coming to this location with the thought of “this location actually cares about there food” unlike the numerous other locations in the area, I think I’ll be avoiding Robertos for quite awhile again.

All the way from Los Angeles, the hubs and I decided to give these guys a try! From the moment we walked in we were greeted with the up most welcoming smiles! I don’t know who or what people are talking about in these reviews, but the Staff is amazingly friendly.

I tried the Asada Burrito and it was HUMONGOUS & BOMB .. flavorful and seasoned to perfection. The hubs had a Beef Enchilada and he loved it! As we ate, the cook came to check up on us, to see what we thought.

Let me tell y’all something..
DO NOT and I MEAN.. DO NOT GO BY REVIEWS.. You gotta check these guys out for yourselves.. And you won’t be disappointed.

I appreciate the welcoming love we received once we walked in and left! Before I return to LA, I’ll be coming back for some tacos.. I hear they’re HUGE, per the cook, and I TRUST HIS OPINION!!!

THANKS ROBERTO’S.. YOU GUYS ROCK!
MUCH LOVE FROM LA!! WE APPRECIATE YOU ALL!!!

Stopped in for an early morning breakfast. I forgot how much these breakfast burritos hit the spot. Thank you Elder, for making this such a great pit stop. Will be back!

They are changing 1.25 small container of sauce, won’t go back, I understand people were probably taking advantage of getting large containers and filling up however $1.25 is a lot, $.50 would’ve been fair.

I was really looking forward to this meal but it went wrong right from the delivery. I don’t know why, but the guy delivered my food to the back alley garage instead of the front door. I had to get dressed as it was after 3 am, leash my dog, grab my mace and walk down the street to the alley to pick up my order. Does that sound right to anyone?
Plus the food! I ordered a dinner of chimichanga. All the food had taste bleeding. That isn’t a pleasant taste by any means. The beans were old, dry. There was a skimpy amount of guacamole and sour cream. I ordered lettuce but did not find any in the order.
Chimichangas are my all time favorite food, and this was the worst I have ever had. I will never eat at this place again.
