“In a town that has tacos shops on practically every other block, this place is a standout. The quality of the food, the awesome customer service, and the insanely extensive and unique salsa bar will have you coming back again and again.

I tried this place a second time after being impressed the first time, wanting to try their poblano burrito (which quite a few others have posted about). Holy. Wow. This burrito was FIRE. You can add steak or shrimp, but I added BOTH, and I added their chipotle cream sauce. It was massive and so delicious. They did not skimp on either the steak or the shrimp, and the burrito's other contents (cheese-stuffed poblanos, rice, beans, and guac) were really generous. Highly, highly recommend Burrito City if you're in the area.“

“As a Mexican, I’m very particular about my mariscos, and out of the three Mariscos trucks in El Cajon, this one is by far the best. I love their aguachiles, and their fairly priced fish tacos are bomb. Authentic as it gets, to be honest!!“

“I think we have a new favorite Chinese place! We ordered take out, but when I came to pick up the order, I was admiring the restaurant. It was very nice- it looks like a great place to take a date. We ordered Lemon Chicken- such a flavorful sauce!, a chicken with basil and garlic- delicious and so many whole cloves of garlic -yum!, vegetable fried rice with lots of still- crisp veggies, and the only disappointing entree- egg foo young. The sauce was magnificent, but the egg foo young was a bit overdone and unremarkable, and even the sauce-full of pieces of pork and crisp veggies - couldn't save it. We will absolutely be back, though!“

“Amazing food, the meals look, taste, and are very similar to other locations so that is great, as it is consistent.

The shrimp trio is probably my favorite Taco Tuesday item. Their fish tacos are also very good, as well as the shrimp and bacon burrito. The burritos do have bunch of jalapeno seeds in there that make it really spicy.“

Our server Laura was absolutely fantastic. She was polite, patient, and informative. She checked on our table many times. We received our food in a very timely manner and it was exactly what was ordered. Steak was perfectly cooked, lobster was delicious. Overall this turned out to be a wonderful experience. We will definitely be back soon.“

Whatever cook you guys have back there at that time deserves a raise, just because I could tell they have a passion for food and delivering great food to whoever orders. The lady upfront was courteous and professional. I’m a restaurant manager, I would steal whoever made my food back there in an instant.“
