Tourists from Toronto here. Having tried tacos at various restaurants in San Diego, we have to admit that this place was by far the best in quality! Thank you for making our last dinner in the city a memorable one 🙂

I was in San Diego for 5 days and I went here twice. It is that good! I had the grilled mahi mahi tacos and the California burrito both were absolutely amazing. Why would anyone in San Diego ever go to Chipotle when you can get food that's 10x for almost the same price? Highly recommended!

Much much much better option than Tacos El Gordo.

The food is excellent, not anywhere near as greasy and cheap tasting as some others in the area. We went on a Saturday night and we served right away, no line wrapping around the block.

The artwork on the walls was absolutely incredible, I kept finding new things to look at the entire time that we were there. And then I turned around 😮

Highly recommended 👌🏼
