Jimmy Carter's Mexican Cafe serves phenomenal food in a lively atmosphere. The shredded pork mole and Chili Rellano are standout dishes, made with authentic and flavorful Mexican flavors. The restaurant's attentive wait staff ensure a great dining experience. Guests have enjoyed the carnitas adobo with beans and rice, noting the steak is flavorful and tender, and the handmade tortillas are freshly made and hot. The cheese enchilada with Colorado (red) sauce has been praised as one of the best, while the nachos with shredded beef have been called possibly the best ever. The chicken tortilla soup is a popular starter, along with spicy carrots and addicting chips and salsa. The "Tlaquepaque" sauce is a recommended addition for enchiladas and crispy tacos. With a specials board featuring unique items, this popular San Diego spot continues to impress visitors with great service and a nice location.
