Robert's Jalapenos - Reviews

My experience at this restaurant involved ordering Al pastor tacos and a Squirt. The portions were large, which was a positive aspect. However, I did not like any of their salsas. I found the restaurant's convenient location to be appealing.

This place was super convenient after Costco when I was too tired to go home and cook lol! I enjoyed the good al pastor and carne asada, and the salsa verde was also great. The staff were wonderful. As someone newer to San Diego, I'm learning that tacos at most places are huge! Mini or street tacos are the normal size to me. The burritos are just meat and guac, very rarely do they come with rice or beans. This seems to be the norm here, and I don't think it should be considered a negative for this restaurant in particular.

My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The staff was super friendly, and the food was good. I particularly enjoyed the street tacos al pastor, carnitas & carne asada burrito, which were great!

My experience at the restaurant was wonderful! I absolutely loved the food, finding it so yummy. The salsa was particularly divine. The workers were very friendly, making me feel like I was at home. The girl at the front was especially helpful and attentive.

My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I just finished my WET carne Asada burrito that was 🔥. Without asking, they made sure it had extra meat and extra guacamole. Everything was fresh and tasted amazing!

My experience at the restaurant was great! I particularly loved their carne asada nachos and menudo. The salsa was very spicy, but it had a good flavor. The service and food were rated a 5, and the atmosphere was also a 5. We had lunch, and there was no wait time. Parking was plentiful in the free parking lot, and we enjoyed the indoor dining area.

My experience at this restaurant was a mix of positive and negative. The food was excellent; the tamales were a safe bet and the ceviche was clean and fresh, not masked with seasonings to hide any fishy taste. However, the hygiene was a major concern. My food arrived open, and an employee's actions raised dust particles, which is not hygienic and indicates poor training. This lack of cleanliness was disappointing, especially when people are trying to eat. The employees, including the third-party staff, seemed untrained in handling such situations. Despite the food quality, the hygiene issues and poor staff response were significant drawbacks.

My experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. The food was good enough, but the service was not great. The person at the order counter wasn't very friendly. Additionally, the person who brought out my food didn't include utensils, stating I'd have to get them myself as he was too busy. 😐. It was my first time there, and I'm not sure I'll go back.

My experience at this restaurant was quite disappointing, particularly with the food. I ordered the carne asada burrito, which I found to be surprisingly basic, containing literally just meat and guacamole. I've never encountered a burrito with such limited ingredients. The seasoning was overdone, and the overall taste was just weird. To make matters worse, the burrito was very small. For $14, I simply cannot accept this as the quality and quantity being offered to customers. While the service and atmosphere received high marks (5/5), the food quality was a significant letdown (1/5).

I was born and raised in El Cajon and the only spot I've ever go to is Valero's. This is why I never try new Mexican food places. The food here is gross. If you want real 🌮🌯 Mexican food, go to El Cajon where Valero's is. The prices are better and the sauces, hot carrots 🥕, everything is 10 times better than this place. They don't use steak 🥩 in their burritos. The fried chimichanga style burrito was soggy and gross. Their hot sauce isn't hot and is plain.
