Hidden Gem of El Cajon Crest! On the mountain you don’t need to go far for yummy food, great service, and consistency. Quality is always great. We always get la Cresta Burrito, Meatlovers Burrito, 5 rolled tacos, 2 Floutas #8 Chili relleno two cheese enchiladas rice and beans. Tip: get your Burrito “wet”.

I think I have reviewed this before. This is a family owned and mostly run restaurant. This is not a chain. Anytime I am in the area, I get a burrito from them. If you like to eat in and watch sports, they have an area with a bar and about four TV’s. The price is average, the portions are solidly above average, and the flavor is EXCELLENT.

Ab-so-freaking-lutely! I don’t even want to post a review because I don’t want the secret getting out about this spot! Fish tacos are bomb, the tostada’s are legit, the beer list is spot on, and even for early mornings – you can get a bomb acai bowl!

I liked it’s a family owned and the food it’s prepared at the moment you order it’s not reheated like other places

Family owned restaurant, fresh & delicious food. Great service. Jose is really attentive with all his customers. El Merserito one of the best one. Enjoy live music and cold beer .

Wow the food there is on point and made fresh right there, I find myself going here a lot now when I crave Mexican food never had I ever finished a whole order of carne asada fries because it’s just meh but here I couldn’t stop eating and finish the whole plate, the meat is tender in the burritos and they are huge with a lot of flavor I’d definitely recommend you to try this place if you’re in the crest area
