De Cabeza /El Único Reviews
I stumbled upon this restaurant while watching YouTube travel guides for our upcoming trip to San Diego. We love unique dining experiences, so this seemed like our kind of eatery. The food & service was excellent. The owner checked on every table & takes pride in his restaurant which shows in the quality of the food. The head meat tacos were excellent! We also loved the consomè con carne soup.
Unos tacos bien deliciosos! De visita desde Chicago! Recomendamos!
Buen servicio y sobre todo la amabilidad

De Cabeza/El Único is a must-visit mom and pops shop serving fantastic, extremely fresh food. The cabeza order remains a highlight, enough for two people but so good that many will want it all to themselves. The tacos are among the best in San Diego, featuring items that are hard to find elsewhere. Guests can enjoy ice-cold caguamas for $5 and the service is known for being warm and friendly, making customers feel right at home. The staff is incredibly hard-working, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. Easy parking is available, making it a convenient stop. A 10/10 recommended dining experience! The chorizo Verde, flan, and crepes have also received high praise, while the Chapulines and Cabeza de Borrego are favorites among visitors. Additionally, the pulque, especially the “curado de nuez” (pecan flavor), has been noted for its smooth taste, almost like aguamiel fresh from the agave. However, some guests have mentioned concerns about the pricing, particularly for items like the pumpkin blossom quesadilla. Overall, this spot offers a unique and satisfying taste of Mexico in California.
