Don't let the letters in front fool you. Glad I just got a so called Queso taco to find out this place sucks. I don't have the time and energy to go down the list of things that make this place horrible. No restroom and no hand sanitizer to start with.

A must stop on the search for the best San Diego taco. The Birria and Carnitas was so mouth-watering delicious. No time to take pictures!

I have only been to the one in IB. The tacos are on point. Both regular priced and the ones on special. Their carne asada tacos are way better than El Gordo. Their adobada was very good too. Their fish tacos are pretty good. Service is always great.

I ordered a carne asada burrito and throughout the burrito the tortilla was folded multiple times through the whole burrito. I had to bite around the dough just to get the taste of a true carne asada burrito. Half of the burrito is rolled up tortilla. The burrito looks big and decent but it’s all tortilla . Horrible burrito and what a cheap way to false advertise and save a few cents by not giving me what I ordered. Never will I buy here again. The 1.50 adobada tacos are dry and they are rolled in double tortillas also. I do not reccomend eating here. A photo below of all the tortilla I did not eat at the end of the burrito. I’m still hungry.

Best Mexican Restaurant in IB.Pricier, but worth it.Sometimes they run out of menu itemsCall and order ahead, they take a while.First time? Try the Taco Tuesday.Great fish tacos!Wheelchair accessibility: Parking right in front of the single level restaurant. Located near the entrance/exit of the mini-mall so easy for fussy drivers.Seating inside and out as well.

Long time Mexican food eater. First time here. Early afternoon. Sunday. I usually go for a fish or carne asada something but wound up trying my first Birria: A fist size hunk of pull-apart brisket in soup with more pulled apart brisket. I need to find out what else is made with the soup liquid. Large tortilla that had to cool. Good sides. I'm not into the green hot-sauce but the red was hot and super tasty. Small rice and beans. Also tasty. All fresh and hot or cold as appropriate. Wrapped well so I did not get home with a plastic bag full of fatty, red liquid. Smiling, friendly woman behind the counter. Clean. Reasonable music volume. It has been a while since I have eaten out, but the prices seem average. Maybe a little less?
