We got our food Togo (duh we’re in a pandemic) however very tasty and fresh. I can only imagine what they would be like right when you bite into them the second you receive them. 10 or 10 will go back.

Good food. Not much seating inside (barstools only) so we sat outside on the picnic tables. The train passes by frequently in front of the restaurant and there were mostly homeless people walking by.

Good Tijuana style Mexican food. Limited menu, but no one was disappointed. Order chicken nachos and they were very good with large chunks of chicken. Worth a try if you are in the area.

The food here is great, the pastor meat is the best. The staff was extremely helpful and very personable. Their Famoso taco was delicious but just make sure to get enough napkins.

Really tasty authentic Mexican. Had the fish taco and shrimp taco. Both very good. Also the Cali Diablo Burrito is delicious!

The Cali Diablo burrito is single handedly, one of the greatest burritos I have ever had. The staff, Ales was so kind and welcoming and I will forever suggest that anyone coming to San Diego, visits this fine Mexican restaurant.

The street fries have been a long time favorite. I was really sad when they closed down for awhile. They are now back with bigger portions just as delicious as ever. 🙂

The queso taco and the carne asada fries are amazing. The Famoso taco was a little salty and greasy but everything else was so damn awesome I won’t even drop a star. This place is amazing

Just visited last week from Phoenix, AZ, stopped by here after our visit to the SD Zoo and was pleasantly surprised. I was even with 3 somewhat picky-eating kids and they all loved it too. It was a great value considering the quality and size of the portions – we had a lot of leftovers. Customer service was great. The green & red sauces were both very flavorful and the hot red sauce packs a serious punch, which I was warned about, but I loved it so I still at a couple of them and enjoyed the burn and sniffles 🙂

The Tuesday Special $5 (3 signature Famoso tacos) they were so AMAZING! I had to order more! This a new weekly spot for sure. Affordable all days, and happy hour (3-6 Mon-Fri) and super friendly people. You will wait a bit for very, very hot and fresh food. Worth every penny and the wait! Beer and soft drinks served.
