Not good. Got a California burrito and didn’t want to finish it. Carne asada was overcooked and tasteless. It was also $15?? There are much better places around.

I’ve been coming here for years and have always been a big fan. Some may not be accustomed to actual potatoes over fries in say the California burrito but I enjoy the unique take. Plus their salsa is the best in town, as far as I’m concerned.

I come here for the fried chicken flautas! Best fried taco in San Diego. It might be a little more expensive, but I like that they include all of the fixings. I don’t have to ask for extra guacamole, sour cream, or cheese.

I also highly recommend their bean and cheese burrito with a side of their salsa. It is the ultimate comfort food.

The salsa is not very spicy and has a little bit of a vinegar taste to it, but it is still extremely delicious. I think mostly gringas with low spice tolerance are shopping here because they don’t have any hot sauces out on the counters.

I’ve gone to a bunch of Mexican places all over San Diego and I’ve never found a place that does flautas or chimichangas like this.

This place has seating, but it’s mostly designed for takeout. Not much to look at in this restaurant. They could improve on the decor but their main focus is creating delicious food and they’ve definitely succeeded there I will still sit and eat my food here, though the people are friendly and accommodating. Would like them to add more intense spicy hot sauce but might not have a market for it in Encinitas

Hands down best Mexican chicken soup in north county San Diego. They also have the best carne asada. The staff is also very friendly and helpful.

Best tacos in town. Very fresh and quality ingredients. The Mexico chicken soup (family recipe) is nowhere else to be found. I highly recommend it: it's healthy and tasty.

The best carne asada and chicken soup in north county!!!

Not a fancy place but very tasty food

Best breakfast burritos ever on planet earth. I add avocado

I had a California burrito and it was awesome. The potatoes in there were just perfect. Definitely coming again.

When I see the name, I’m thinking they have a new spin on some dishes or some fusion foods. I was wrong. Then I saw they have salsa for sale. I thought it must be good for them to sell it in 8oz and 12oz containers. I was wrong. Cheated on my diet and came here, wrong again. If you’re gonna cheat on your diet, don’t do it here. $17 for my breakfast burrito and salsa🫤

The food I ordered was good, the only thing missing is the red sauce, it seemed very simple to me
