The menu offers a variety of options that are perfect for anyone looking for a satisfying meal. The friendly service and welcoming atmosphere make it a great place to enjoy Mexican-inspired flavors with family and friends.“

“Today (8/6/2026) at approximately 12:00 p.m., I went through the drive-thru. I'm not completely sure of the employee's name, but I believe it was Brenda.

I stop by this location almost every day, and I'm usually in a hurry. Brenda is always friendly, professional, and efficient. She consistently gets my order right, and her positive attitude makes every visit a pleasant experience.

Employees like Brenda are becoming harder to find. She clearly takes pride in her work and genuinely cares about providing great customer service. She is a tremendous asset to your restaurant, and I wanted to make sure her hard work and dedication were recognized.“

“so good so clean and the service is a super service !! totally 2 tums up!!!“

“It’s always good and fresh“

“The young lady in the lot taking the orders on a 94 degree day was a true professional!“

“Yummy food!!😋😋👍🏿👍🏿, excellent customer service. You can’t go wrong.“

“I gotta say I was a little disappointed in the food. The Cali burrito was good. The carne asada burrito was ok. The fish tacos weren’t great. The rice and beans are not good. Tasted old. The salsas weren’t that great either. Not sure I’ll return“

“Always perfect burgers and fries at this location. Friendly and fun staff.“

“We went to lunch yesterday at the local In N Out burger. Of course it was delicious. That's the great thing about INO, no matter where in the country the food ALWAYS high quality and very consistent. Cant say that about many other fast food places. 😋“

“A fantastic sandwich for a fantastic price. The veggies are always plentiful and fresh. Could there be more meat? Sure, but for $6.25 per special combination really can’t complain. It’s perfect for the price. I can’t recommend their coffee though, it’s more bitter and burnt tasting than most Vietnamese places.“

“Everyone is nice and easy going. I honestly appreciate it here. You can feel the good vibes, kindness and warmth from them. Celly is a clear example and really shows us the amazing standard they have at the amazing customer service. Pls, give him a raise!“

“Number 1 burger in the world 🌎“

“Deliciosas nos encantan !“

“The best place in San Diego“

“tenders are great ❤️ milkshake too“

“chilaquiles can carne asada were very good. Good portion, good price awesome service“

“Doesn’t look like much walking past, but WOW this was amazing and fresh Mexican food- I had the TamaElote- a perfect tamale topped with generous deconstructed Elote topping- two of my favorite things all warm and happy for only $5, it fed me better than the much more expensive meals we’d spend for a similar meal at a fancy restaurant. Perfect for walking around old town, but worthy of a destination in itself!“

“I’ll start off my review with saying great customer service . It shows the owner has put in a lot much of his/her time to train their employees properly . Every time I walk in I am always greeted and never rushed when ordering . I personally love there fruit waters and making my own chip bowl. All prices are decent and affordable so they fit everyones budget . It can get busy from time to time but totally worth the wait . I definitely recommend visiting this location to grab something for your sweet tooth or salty craving:) . Most importantly this location is always clean and sanitized ! You will never see a mess.“

“Amazing sandwiches we found to be the best in town“

“I. I. I. I. I. I i“

“I come here often because the food is fresh. I love Mexican food and Sombreros is the best in my opinion. The staff are polite and friendly, you are able to see the cooks while at the front while ordering. When I speak they wave with smiles.
The inside is clean as well as the bathroom. When I come it’s comfortable and some times I may come in for takeout but wind up staying to eat in the restaurant.
Thank You Sombrero!“

“My impression of a business heavily relies on the people I interact with. I definitely like the food at QDOBA Mexican eats, but the customer service is what brings me back time and again. Maya remembers me and my order. She welcomes me with a smile every time and makes me feel special. Loving the food and knowing I am a valuable customer keeps me loyal to QDOBA. Thank you for the excellent experience at this establishment.“

“This place is great, I got the shrimp burrito. who knew tater tots and shrimp go well together! It adds a slight crispness to every bite. I couldn’t finish the burrito it was so big but I wanted to cuz it was delicious. My husband from PA got the Philly cheesesteak to try and he approved. He even liked the special sauce they used.“

“Sara's is a tiny delight! We recently stayed nearby in the Mission Beach neighborhood, and we ate dinner from Sara's almost every night of our 8-day stay. The al pastor is delicious and highly recommended, and we also enjoyed the rolled tacos, burritos, and rice and beans. It was always busy which is a good sign, and we'll definitely be back if we are ever in this neighborhood again.“

“Great food but terrible location in the middle of an industrial park. They need to move to a strip mall on a busy street to get more business“

“Food was amazing! Service was great! I will definitely come back!“

“juicy burgers and great shakes“

“I met the best employee there tonight. Upbeat and genuinely a happy camper. She made my visit extremely enjoyable.
I've been dealing with a case of severe pain from an incident that happened on Saturday night. This person was just sweet and comforting as if she had invited me into her home for afternoon tea. A calming spirit. WOW! Thank you Gloria for being you. And tip her well. She needs a 🚗. Im going to call her GLO! She glows!“

“I’m a rode biker and I ride all over San Diego but I never miss my weekly stop for a quick mocha to help me make it up another hill. Miriam and Q treat me like family. So glad that I found this little paradise in Sorrento Valley.“

“El café los desayunos todo rico 😋“

“Chuck-fil-a is always a good choice when on a road trip! We stopped at this location to take a break, stretch and eat. I love the salads here…my husband and I ordered the Cobb salad with avocado dressing, the kids got the chicken sandwich and nuggets. I’ve never been to a chick-fil-a where customer service is bad and this wasn’t the case. Customer service was polite and very nice. It was very clean and they even had a play area for small kids. They have this sign of this person that has dined with them for so many days, thought that was pretty cool!“

“Fast friendly service. Clean restrooms“

“We ordered a wide variety of sushi rolls, appetizers, and small plates, and everything arrived fresh and beautifully presented. The fish tasted fresh, the rolls were flavorful, and the portions were satisfying without feeling overly heavy. What I liked most was the variety available on the menu because it gave everyone a chance to try different flavors and combinations throughout the meal. The all-you-can-eat option also felt worth it because the quality remained consistent with every order.“

“Amazingly friendly staff. When you walk in, you immediately feel like family. There is so much variety. The #25 is amazing with it's fresh sliced avocado. The #45 is easily my favorite hot sandwich. There is always 2 new soups daily and all of them are absolutely delicious. Everything is fresh and fully customizable. The prices are easily justified when you consider just how big the portions are. The staff in general will always make you feel welcome. They are attentive to their customers and have a unique way of making a bad day a lot better. Highly recommend just for the atmosphere here.“

“the grilled breakfast sandwich & Cobb salad wit & Arnold Palmer is delicious 😋“

“la calidad de sus ingredientes su forma de preparar el marinado a sus tiempos el estilo de pure sus salsa de la casa y sobre todo su atencion.saludos equipo hector mayra y carlos“

“They did change their happy hour menu from what I had previously seen online and was slightly disappointed. BUT my friends and I were there for a good time nonetheless! Our waitress was an absolute gem and did mention the margaritas are only one, which was the house one only. We ordered 3, one for each, and it was amazing! Especially for $5 per!!! The tacos were half off so we did decide on a taco each and they were absolutely amazing and beautifully presented. Fries were also very delicious. We wanted to try another spot so we weren’t there long but the music playing was good and outside was nice and cool. We are going back asap even if the happy hour wasn’t what we expected, we still want to try more from the menu.“

“Ok so this place stays busy but they move fast. I recommend downloading the app and collecting points. You can also order ahead. My go to is the egg white grilled chicken breakfast sandwich and add tomato and pickle!!! Ask for hot sauce packets too. One of my favorite healthy breakfast sandwiches. It’s so good!! The staff is always extra friendly.“

“Was reminiscing on how the store owner Eric Pigg helped me get away from my abusive Boyfriend, by offering me the office to come to stay in a safe place and use the phone to call my family, I finally took him up on that chance, he told me go home and never come back here! thank You for helping me plan and finally leave my toxic life behind! this was over 15 years ago.“

“Descent burgers and fries for the price you pay. Specially if you’re on a budget“

“This place is located in the food court inside 99 Ranch in Balboa Ave. They have tables to sit in. I ordered the 3 piece chicken combo meal. Salt & pepper flavor. Also, ordered the spicy mac & cheese. Chicken was pretty crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. The mac & cheese was also very good“

“Absolutely the best customer service I’ve ever experienced and not only this establishment but any other fast food restaurants. I had a kind of complicated order, but DC Smoothing it out and got me exactly what I needed for me and my family. Definitely will be coming back here and hopefully see this Gentleman Again.

Look out for DC, he was on the Window and Coms, I’m sure he’s gonna take care of y’all.“

“es demasiado rico lo recomiendo“
