The best tacos hands down! Visited in Chula Vista, CA! 🤤
No customer service. And you need to get in line for each item .
We’ve been to their Vegas locations many, many, times, and this spot brings the same quality as there. It’s great food, quick service, and good selection. We love the Mulas, and the standard tacos are great too. Make sure you grab some seating upstairs, it often gets overlooked!
The cooks make like 20 tacos and quesadillas per second. It’s like a taco factory where you can see the production line. They cook everything in mass and throw everything in a piece of tortilla. It’s the definition of street food. The quesadilla was better than the tacos. They were tasty but a little messy.The whole process of ordering and eating is a chaos especially on a Saturday night. But it’ll do the job and is worth trying.
Amazing tacos - taco de tripa is surprisingly good with amazing seasoning; taco de asada is really yummy with a balanced flavor.Went there around 5pm and the store wasn’t too busy and did not have a line, which is great!

Some of the best tacos you'll ever have. Get the adobada but seriously, everything is good. They're open late to satisfy those late night munchies. Enjoy!

Amazing tacos! The staff are friendly and the food is great. There is an adequate amount of seating upstairs. I did find the system of lining up for the type of tacos confusing and ended up in the wrong line. Prices are

This is a fantastic taco spot the weight can be kind of lungs on certain days but definitely worth it. The staff is friendly and helpful and there are many things to do after you finish your tacos.

This place is yummy, chaotic, and fun. You pick which meat you want and stand in that line. Our favorite was the pastor. We got both tacos and a quesadilla with pastor, and they were very very good! We did a little good crawl with this and Prince Street Pizza!

If you don’t know what to order, just go with beef tongue taco!! It’s extremely good. It’s super soft and juicy. They also gave out a lot of meat! A long drive to San Diego is worthy of their food.

Truly skilled artists. It's amazing watching someone so honed at their profession working so well to create something wonderful for you to eat. I drive about 25 miles out of my way just to eat here sometimes. The Padres win every time I eat a taco here, so I probably haven't been enough this year, but I'll try harder next season.

Fantastic tacos, so many choices. Staff is friendly and helpful. I suggested going on a weekday, during the weekend it gets quite busy. They have seating outside and inside. In the gaslamp area very busy area but something always going on.

Coming from Houston the tacos were super juicy. Every bite exploded in your mouth. Fries were extremely crispy and soft in the inside and service was friendly and excellent. The spice level tho was super low I guess Californians don’t get as spicy as I thought.
Kid-friendliness: The atmosphere upstairs is pretty safe compared to sitting outside.
Wheelchair accessibility: There are ramps
