“found the Las Vegas Sayulitas 2 yrs ago when staying at the Luxor. there burritos are beyond spectacular. big and so delicious. I can't say it enough. and the sauces on the little sauce bar are outstanding. I've never had anything like those sauces. the hot green sauce and hot red sauce are phenomenal. I like the green the best. I lived in AZ years ago. went back home to upstate NY. there is no place near me that even comes close. I love Sayulitas and wish I had one near me. you can't go wrong if you love Mexican style food“

“Taco Tuesdays are my favorite day at this place because the food is great. However, I’ve heard that the food might be different on other days.

One thing that really annoys me is their payment system. You have to pay for your order first and then wait in line for it. The line can be incredibly long, sometimes over 30 minutes.

Despite the long wait, their system tacos are amazing on Taco Tuesdays.
Word of caution: the Al pastor tacos can be very inconsistent, one day they can be crispy with full of flavor, other days they can be soggy and bland.“

“I can't tell you how delicious the food was here. I'm vegetarian and I still was able to get an exceptional meal. The chips and guac was incredible, The taco rolls were wonderful, The veggie burrito was very tasty and The virgin Pina colada was big and delicious. I'd go again for sure.“

“Great food! Above fast food, not fancy, quality food for your hard earned $$$$“

“One of the best Mexicans restaurants in San Diego area .“

“Had lunch today at Primos and WOW! The Ahbundogas soup 🍜 is the best we’ve ever had. Four large meatballs that alone taste 👅 flavorful. come with rice and portion was great. even a little to take home for later. definitely coming back!“

“The foods great , staff is super friendly, my favorite item is the Torta Cubana (Cuban Style Sandwich) , my family always gets the Molcajete, parking can get full but there’s parking in the rear, just avoid parking in the hotels reserved parking. Definitely recommend“

“Love everthing especially the food“

“Wonderful food and tasty drinks, quick, and your tacos come in a to-go box so you can walk right out if that's what you want! If not,
the tables are clean and chairs are comfy enough that you can eat for an hour! Difficult parking, if it's full you can come back 5 minutes later and there will be a spot free. (Video is my dad, he's been coming here for years even before the switch in ownership :) He loves this place)“

“The food was so good! The salsas are amazing and spicy. Love that they have mild and super spicy salsas. I’ve had the California burrito with chicken and carne asada. Both meets are really good. The potato tacos are my go to as well.“

“We love Shores. With football now starting, it is not so great. It is known as a Packers bar. Today there were 6 Packers fan and the rest of the other team fans had to listen to the loud Packers game. Also, one bartender saved seats for over 2 hours for people who didn't show up. That is not right for everyone who shiftwd seats to accommodate the regular guests. Not "shore" if we'll be back during football. I hope Pete figures it out.“

“Big thanks to Lourdes for accommodating my order. My guy was super sick in the ER. He just wanted caldo de pollo from Lourdes. But, the soup wasn’t listed on the GrubHub menu. So the gal took my order and payment over the phone for the soup and then added the soup to my GrubHub delivery. Best soup ever!“

“The best grilled chicken I've ever had! The seasoning is spectacular super juicy on the inside with that perfect golden crisp on the outside. Plus the grilled onions and roasted jalapeños give it the ideal touch. The place has a super cozy atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. 💯% recommended!“

“Albertacos absolutely rocks, family owned business and every dish has love in it. Very authentic and the portions are right on point. Love coming here and I always leave full and satisfied. 100%. Thank you so much to the wonderful staff, you all rock.“

“Been enjoying everything since I was 5 great food and better service love it“

“Stopped in for a quick bite while doing some laundry next door. Stupid good food!!!!!“

“Great service and delicious pollo con tajadas…“

“I haven't been to all the locations but so far having only been to two I am extremely satisfied with this restaurant. I started to really give the fish taco some thought after I went to the first location and I can't stop getting fish tacos now.“

“Great service. Good portions. Delicious carne asada on my California burrito 🌯. The burrito price is $12.41 out the door. Salsa bar is great with out an extra charge. The cook on shift today is the best. This is one of my favorite Mexican fast food places in San Diego.“

“Today around 6:30 pm my wife, my mother-in-law and myself went to eat our dinner and order several street tacos, including 2 tripas tacos asked those to be crunchy also 2 side orders of birria( in small cups). When the food ordered was arrived to our table we noticed the that the birria cups came without onions and cilantro, a food plate no matter the size of it, every Mexican Restaurant always comes with those 2 ingredients. We asked the waitress and she said that they don’t serve onions and cilantro with those side orders, we asked also for a couple of corn tortillas for the birria and we had the same response, no tortillas for side orders. My wife said to her” how about in a courtesy way to get those items, and again she denied. I asked who was in charge, and a guy who I think was the Cook came over and we asked the same questions. He said that he can bring the onions and cilantro but not the tortillas. My wife said then. “ We paid $50.00 and something else in the dinner and you can not in a courtesy way bring 2 tortillas for the birria?” Then he said to us , No! Then my wife said to him “ Really was expensive what we paid for our tonight dinner!”. He said then everything changed due to the pandemic and that everything will be more expensive! He was kind of rude in his response. Also is very important to mention that the tripas tacos were not crunchy, the meat was more like a chewing humans I needed to reminded about the salsas because they didn’t served with the tacos. It was really bad experience and will never come back to eat there. I don’t recommend the Taco Bar to eat lunch or dinner“

“This is a great little hole in the wall. The pan dulcet tastes great! It's got a nice touch of butter and cinnamon 😋
The champurrado is epic and the tamales are epic! My favorite are the rajas, but you can only get those on the weekend, and be there early enough, before they run out.“

“Rigoberto’s Taco Shop always comes through! The food is fire every time, the portions are huge, and they get you in and out fast. Whether it’s late night or just a regular lunch, they never let me down. Their burritos? On point every time! All of them!“

“Buen lugar para desahogar penas jaja echar una chela, un trago y pasarla bien un rato.“

“I dont really care for their chicken butt. But guess what? Hahaha see what I did there. Grow a chicken pair and wear feathered underwear. Cuz it got crazy chickens there so try not to stare and eat there if you dare. But I don't really care for the crazy chicken find me chicken at KFC or Popeyes Popeyes I believe has the most expensive Chicken on the planet. Fun fact“
