Best Baja Fish Tacos in San Diego!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I tried the Baja fish tacos and they were the best I've had in San Diego. The octopus tacos and scallop tacos were also incredibly delicious. The food quality, service, and atmosphere all received a perfect 5/5 rating, making for a truly enjoyable dinner.

Excellent Food and Service on Christmas Day
Looking for something to eat on Christmas Day, we decided to try this restaurant and were very glad we stopped in. The food was excellent, with great portions for the money. I tried the battered white fish and the garlic shrimp tacos with the chips, and it was all very good. William provided awesome, very friendly, attentive and excellent service. Highly recommended!

Amazing Carne Asada Burrito!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially with their Carne Asada burritos. They are genuinely some of the best I've had in San Diego. The portion size is incredibly generous; one burrito is enough to feed two people! I also have to mention their chipotle sauce, which was absolutely 🔥🔥🔥.

Top 3 Burrito Spot with Awesome Vibe
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The combination of the Chipotle and salsa verde, along with fillings like carne or octopus, makes this one of my top 3 burrito places in the US. The vibe inside is also awesome, and they play very nice music.

Delicious Tacos and Fast Service!
My experience at the restaurant was excellent. I was greeted as soon as I walked in, and the service was super fast. I received my tacos very quickly, and they were delicious. If you're looking for good tacos and good service, this is the spot.

Amazing Tacos, Poor Atmosphere
My experience at this restaurant was centered around their amazing tacos. I tried the white fish, battered shrimp, and the mushroom tacos, and I can confidently recommend them. While the food was a definite highlight, the atmosphere was quite disappointing, scoring only a 2 out of 5. However, the food quality was excellent, earning a perfect 5 out of 5, and the service also received a high rating of 5 out of 5.

Good Burrito, Needs Customization
I need to give it one more shot. I ordered the Cali Burrito, and it was perfectly good sized, very juicy, with nice soft meat. However, it didn't taste like a regular Cali Burrito; there was something spicy and something else inside that I couldn't quite place. Next time, I will try to customize the order. For now, I'm giving it 5 stars.
