Their Adobada Mulas (pictured) make it hard for me to quit pork. ?My only weakness to eating pork is these Adobada Mulitas with everything on it.

I feel bad for tourists who come to San Diego and haven't had the chance to try Tacos El Gordo's tacos. It's a must!

Finally got to try the famous tacos! We came around 4pm on a Saturday and found parking in the spacious lot in the back. The lines to order food were a bit busy so it took around 20 mins to get all my food. We ordered the carne asada, lengua, and adobada. I enjoyed the carne asada the most, it was so flavorful and delicious! The lengua was very tender and the adobada was good and flavorful, but a bit spicy for me. I would definitely come back if I'm ever in the area!
