This is one of the best taco spots in San Diego. And Jesus is a class act. The food is incredible, they have items on their menu havent seen anywhere else in SD and everything we have had tastes amazing. We had the pleasure of ordering cabeza de rez for a group of friends and it was so exciting. The staff is incredible and hard working, the food is fantastic. We come here almost every weekend.

We haven't lived in San Diego in many years and we were looking for a new taco place to try during our vacation. This place was recommended online. I saw it was in Chula Vista rather than some trendy neighborhood so, figured it would be authentic. The exuberant owner greeted us and talked about his menu and made recs. We had several tacos, all great. I loved the chorizo Verde but they were all good. The flan and crepes were also great. Highly recommend

Tacos El Único in Chula Vista was a great experience! I ordered an order of cabeza, and it came with consomé and warm tortillas—everything was super flavorful and satisfying. The meat was tender and juicy, and the consomé was the perfect touch.

We also tried the tripa tacos, which were crispy and packed with flavor. The service was fast and friendly, and the food came out hot and fresh. Definitely coming back!
