I order chilaquiles Verdes before and there were good but that was I order today they horrible
Finally a good place that offers yummy salsas and just for that I will return. The chicken rolled tacos were tasty. They have a large menu- a lot to choose from and everything sounds good. Will recommend to anyone looking to try something new!
California Burrito Ranking: Stop #19
On the hunt to find San Diego’s best California burrito!
Today’s tasting took me to Burros & Fries in National City. This is the 19th spot on my burrito journey.
The Burrito:
They whipped it up fast and served it piping hot. This thing was massive and loaded — lots of beef and a good mix of fillings. They also offer a chicken version, but I went classic with beef. The tortilla, sauce, fries, tomatoes, and cheese were all solid on their own, but somehow the flavors didn’t quite come together as a team. If the meat had been a bit warmer or freshly grilled, I think it would’ve hit better.
Bonus points for the sauces. They looked super watery, but wow — bold and flavorful.
Price was $13, which is about average around town, maybe slightly on the high side.
Burrito rating: 7 out of 10
Service:
Polite and attentive, though nothing over the top.
4 out of 10
Atmosphere:
They’re clearly making an effort to keep the dining area clean, but my table had glass ring marks and wobbled every time I moved. Old movies played on the TV, music in the background, but overall the vibe felt pretty basic.
Shoutout to the random kid with fries on the wall though — made me smile.

We’re regulars here and usually love the food and service—it’s typically a great experience. I rarely drink soda and usually just get water, but at 9:50 pm on Tuesday, I decided to have a small sip of soda in my water cup. Instead of a polite reminder, the person at the front counter responded with a condescending tone, explaining the difference between a water cup and a soda cup. If it was such a problem, I would have gladly paid for that small sip of soda. A respectful request would have sufficed, but her approach felt unnecessarily belittling. This experience has made me less enthusiastic about coming here, and I’m now considering trying a different franchise or burro shop altogether.

Not only was the food super delicious but Amy was a great host. As my first time here she recommended me several options and although my order was a bit complicated she, gave me the best option to my likening. Atmosphere was clean and comfortable. Music was perfect during my stay. Highly recommended and definitely coming back

I was craving some Carne Asada Fries and stopped into Burrows and Fries and ordered them with extra creamy chipotle sauce. The flavor of the Carne Asada was delicious and slightly crispy on the outside, which is what exactly what I'm looking for. I've never been disappointed at any of the locations. Nothing but delicious food so far. Highly recommended!
