Ordered Carne fries and wasn't even asked what kind of cheese I wanted and they put queso in it. Queso is for chips.

I came here reading that this was the best burrito in San Diego. This place did not disappoint. I had the House Burrito and the mole sauce was better than any mole I had growing up. Fantastic flavor. Highly

one of my favorite spots. Absolutely never disappoints. Try some of the new items they are always rotating in.

Got sick last time I ate here, but I was hungry & it's the only taco shop in walking distance. Fool me once! Walked there to find out they closed down an hour early...on a Saturday...with hundreds of drunk people walking around hungry. What kind of Mexican restaurant does that? They're way too comfy over here. We need some taco competition in the neighborhood. F this place.

Ordered a breakfast burrito. Hair in food. Taste was mid at best. Too much potatoes.

So I support local businesses, and I usually love this taco shop, but my biggest pet peeve is when a business closes before their posted hours...

Showed up an hour before closing and was pushed out the door, they said their closing early for some reason...

The beans and rice were bland and didn't taste fresh. The red salsa was also bland and not hot at all. Beef tacos were good, but the salsa makes or breaks a taco shop IMO and this one was disappointing.

The service at El Zarape was outstanding! Everyone is friendly and welcoming. The red and green salsas were good. However, the food itself was not great. I would recommend ordering for takeout as the dining area is dark and not a great atmosphere.

We arrived at 11:00am just in time before the Friday lunch rush. Food is so delicious. The flour tortillo we got is almost similar to the restaurant we went to in Ensenada, Mexico. Supreme breakfast burrito is toddler approved. Free chips that came with the burrito, is really good too. We also had the Ranchero steak, meat is very tender, wish they sell bread to soak up all that sauce. Lastly, we also tried a fish taco.

You won't find better tacos anywhere in San Diego County! The Calamari tacos and scallop tacos are truly fantastic. The carnitas strikes the ideal balance between moist and crispy. The service is exceptional—friendly and welcoming, making you feel like part of the family.For parking, I recommend parking by the park and taking a short walk down. It's a brief stroll, and you get to enjoy the charm of the cute neighborhood along the way.
