I tried their asada tacos and carnitas mixed with buche and it was AMAZING 🤩 I’m not
From here but
I recently moved to San Diego and
I was headed back to my home town up north and I pulled over at a DDs and
Seen this place and I’m definitely coming back when I come back home to San Diego

I used to live in HP. My three kids were born here. I haven been here for more than 20 years. I decided to go and explore the city just like used to. So I went to eat at El Gallo Giro and then I went to get a coffee at Cafe My Familia. One or one and half hour later my car was tow. My tacos costed me $ 500.00. I'm not coming back for sure.

5 star customer service 😊
