15 Best Fast Food Restaurants in La Mesa

“My kids, me, my husband, my brother in law, my best friend, her family, the list goes on, all LOVE this place. Some of them drive from Chula Vista to eat here. I haven't had a bad dish yet. Carnitas, Carne Asada, Pollo, are all done perfectly. My favorites are the number 1, and the Carnitas Plate. If you're not into meat though try the veggie burrito, the Chile relleno burrito, or the bean n cheese burrito. You can also order the 3 sopes plate with refried beans instead of meat. That plate with meat is a favorite too if you like Sopes. I almost forgot about their chimichangas... I know where I'm headed for lunch today.

Vegetarian options: If you're not into meat though try the veggie burrito, the Chile relleno burrito, or the bean n cheese burrito. You can also order the 3 sopes plate with refried beans instead of meat. Excellent food here.

Kid-friendliness: My kids have been coming here since they were babies. They're teens now.“

“We purchase TO GO every few weeks from Lake Murray location. Every staff contact is excellent, food is prepared hot and fresh with great seasonings and meals are a good value for the dollar. Restaurant and restroom are clean. Parking is good, as is drive through. The rewards program is a nice perk, too.“

“very good food...service 👍“

“Great food. I really like the fried fish and the burgers are good too its also a woman owned business. the owner is super sweet.“

“It was 7:20pm after a hot day, and I really wanted a good sandwich. The people there were very friendly, and the sandwich was excellent! Sometimes it is not easy to find a good sandwich place in the evening, along with a smiling face! Thank you for being open until 8pm. I will be back.“

“Thanks for Fast Drive Thru, I be back“

“I've ordered their sandwich boxes on a couple of occasions recently. They staff is helpful, gracious, and the sandwiches are always ready on time and very tasty! Highly recommend this location.“

“Well, it's Jack in the box, what can you say? I don't usually go to check on the box but there is one thing I will keep going back for when I'm around one and that is the tacos. They used to be 99 cents for two, now they are at $1.79 for two but that's really not bad of an increase considering how everything else has gone up so much in the past couple of years. They are definitely a guilty pleasure and I've never experienced any gastronomic problems from eating them.“

“Always a great experience going to El Pollo Loco La Mesa, There food is alway delicious and fresh. They have a large variety menue to choose from and the prices are good.“

“Don't be a Black customer here. They will send you to the kiosk to pay, yet take cash orders from "other" customers and make you wait 15 minutes for a drink 🤷🏾🤷🏾“

“Love Sombrero Catering! It is such a great deal to feed a crowd and of course, the best Mexican food so everyone loves it. And we didn't have to cook. We got party platters and they were a hit plus Sombrero delivered them for us. The enchiladas are the best, that sauce! We also got carnitas, beans, rice and all the fixings plus chips and the BEST SALSA ever! YUM! We brought a few party platters to friends over the holidays too. It is always a hit. Thank you Sombrero Mexican Food! We will be back soon.“

“Tony’s service was absolutely phenomenal and his patience was incredible.

He is a bright young man and the reason why I decided to go and order my meal will be because I wanted to give you guys due to the business of your employee.

This kid has potential to be a goat and I will give you guys business as long as Tony works there and uplifts his customers!!

Tony is my Pizza Hut goat“

“Tried the krabby patty and it tasted ok nothing special but it was good overall the food was as expected it taste good but the problem I had is I asked for extra veggies and they did not put any in the burger even when confronted they didn’t fix it but other than that food was really good“

“Good for a sandwich, especially if you have a coupon and their app.

Parking: Very small parking lot with limited parking. Sharing lot with other businesses.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, but could prove difficult due to incline between parking lot and business.“
