I really like the seasoning on the carne asada which goes well in the quesadilla with meat.

I got campechena fries and I was expecting a good comparison to Tacos el Gordo. I should have went with what I know. For $20 fries I expect a container that is not disturbed with compartments for a fries order. Also if you're gonna serve black guacamole at least mix it so I'm less aware. On second thought. It more a 2, flavor, presentation and pricing all acounted for. 1st time here.

You can get any kind of taco you desire here from fish, chicken or carne asado. The service is friendly and the restaurant is always kept clean. My kids love the agua frescas. I love the al pastor tacos.

Food is bad! They put a lot of salt and ask for carne asada not mix of meat if they can't separate they food at the grill or containers that said a lot about them

So...I decided to try this place due to the good reviews. I have to say I was disappointed. I'd probably only give this a 2.5 but it's not possible so I rounded up. The asada was flavorless, the adobada was greasy and seemed more like pork with chorizo, the tripas were ok but I generally like them crispier. Guacamole was plentiful but needed salt. Maybe it was just the day. The other food looked good and the line was long. Service was good and straightforward.

Aw bruh this place is ULTRA BOMB. It was a little confusing at first walking inside because its like a bar, sushi bar, and a taco place all in one. Wife variety of food here. Service was pretty fast and quality is pristine. And the welcoming vibe supplemented with music, tv, and decorations. They don't skimp on nothing. Good proportions too.

TiaJuana food court provides nice environment to enjoy delicious and authentic Mexican food, Tacos el Poblano has one of the best tacos of pastor, carne asada, sudadero, grilled chicken and quesabirrias. Los Kacho offers sea food and Mexican sushi. Most importa there is a bar with excellent micheladas.Parking: Plenty parking lot.

BOMB tacos here!! It's located in a small food court and the vibes in the food court are immaculate. The Padres were playing and they had it streaming on the tvs and the crowds were cheering everytime they made a play. Anyways, the tacos, especially the adobada, were so good. There were juices dripping out of the tacos and they gave a lot of guac and salsa. Would highly recommend this palce.
Man, el cacho next to it was horrible. I ordered four fish tacos and waited for like 40 minutes!

We got there at 9:50am and they wouldn't take our order. Person was late and finally took our order at 10:10am. By then there was a long line. They were suppose to open at 10. We ordered the following items Vampiro de carne asada- meat was bland and hard. The tostadas where burned to a crips. Taco de adobada- meat was cold and lacked flavor Quesadilla- cheese was not completely melted. Tacos de birria- the tacos had so much sauce that it was impossible to eat because tacos were soggy and super spicy. Would not come back

Want real TJ style tacos in East Chula Vista, this place is the best option.

The tacos are good. I really like them. The Taco Popotla is my favorite. Be prepared to wait because it does take a while for the food. I don't like the ordering process. You have to stand in different lines if you want seafood versus regular tacos. It makes no sense why you can't add to your order. I am also upset that they do not disclose a credit card charge. I have come here numerous times and never really looked at the receipt. Today, I realized that they charge 50 cents to use a credit card. This seems like a scam, especially for people who have to make multiple transactions if they want another type of food. This should be posted and people should be aware that they are being charged. I also want to add that I used Apple Pay, not a credit card that I was charged for.

Had seen this place on IG and when we came down to SD decided to try it. It's inside a place with about 4 other small restaurants. We tried the asada quesadilla which was good with plenty of meat and guacamole. Also tried the asada and al pastor tacos. Both were good but the tortillas were a little hard around the edges. Overheated possibly. Anywho, May try it again when we're back in town.
