Food was over priced for the quality that we received today. Pretty flavorless and unremarkable. There are much better quailty spots in Oceanside that are slightly cheaper. I recommend Mi Asador, and Valerie's Taco Stand if you're looking for consistent high quality in this price range.

Alfredo and his team make food full of love. Everything is delicious!! We primarily take out but have also used Las Brisas for catering and it was wonderful. Their salsas are fresh and full of flavor. A very talented chef (best fried egg ever) in a friendly neighborhood atmosphere. We can't go too long without it!!

One of the best taco shops I’ve been to in recent years. I forgot how good fresh chips could taste, lol salsa is really good. I’ve had a couple dishes there one was the albondigas and the other shrimp tacos both really good but the thing about this place is that the owners are really nice Community oriented and customer service oriented. will definitely be back

In an area of standout Mexican food, Las Brisas is the best. Every single thing I have tried has been really, really good. This is my favorite place to go to in the area.

This is a good spot to get Mexican in Ocean Hills. It's conveniently located with a huge parking lot. Super nice people who greet you and serve you promptly. Servers were very friendly and helpful. The wall menu board is small and lengthy so you'll have to take your time looking at all over. The restaurant looks pretty clean, but is dated. There's a lot of seating inside and even some outside. You have to go up and order at the counter and then you can take it to go or sit down. The portions are very large. I ordered a Pollo Asado burrito and it was definitely more than enough for two meals. My friend got the enchiladas, which also looked great. Another had the tostada salad, which looked delicious. To go boxes/containers were pretty weak and unfortunately buckled under the weight of the food above it. Still tasted good but it was smashed. Didn't help to have my giant burrito on the very top. They have great salsa and will give you as much as you want. I thought it was good and I would recommend this restaurant.

We've been here a few times and every time the food is very good and the portion sizes are great. The operator was very friendly and patient while we were figuring out what we wanted to order. My wife cannot have dairy and I mentioned it several times when orders. Guess what, there was no dairy on any food, not even cojita on the beans. Sour cream was served on the side. Awesome. We waited around for about 10 minutes and took our meals home to eat. Take a look at the pictures because it was all very good and looked good too. This is a family owned/operated business so do us all a favor and give them a try. You won't be disappointed.
$15 for a Cali burrito (carne asada, fries, guac, sour cream, and cheese) and agree that it's huge but IMO, to it's disadvantage. It's so big that you have to choose which 2 ingredients you'll get for each bite and doesn't allow for all the flavors to meld together. Never had a burrito from a taco shop have the bottom bust out on me like today! Flavor wise, it wasn't bad but nor was it wowing me at all. I would much rather had paid a few bucks less, finished it off, and had all the ingredients in each bite. If you've ever had a Cali burrito where the fries, sour cream, cheese, and meat seem to just unite with flavor like when those last few bites are so glorious that you don't quit even if you're full, you'll know what I mean. Hot sauce is also pretty mediocre, thin, and no salsa bar so I assumed it was the only choice. I have a feeling this a place I'd choose an entree like a fajita plate over the burritos. Service, ambiance, cleanliness, etc, was basically what you'd expect from a moms and pop's Mexican shop.

Friendly staff and the food is fantastic! It was my first time to their new location and it was worth it. I haven't had anything bad off their menu. This time, I had the carnitas street taco and the chicken enchilada combo. Delicious!

Ordené la Mariscada. Una porquería.Los ostiones? Tibios. 2 me salieron pudridos. Los otros cuatro, súper amargos con consistencia de gelatina. Ostiones se sirven encima de hielo - ni fríos estaban. Los camarones y pulpo estaban ahogados en salsa de cocktail, sabían a pura salsa dulce. El ceviche fue lo único ordinario. El servicio? Remalo. No saludan, no te preguntan cómo está la comida - tuve que pedir limones 3 veces antes que me los dieran. Es el colmo. Ordered the Mariscada. Disgusting. The oysters? Served luke warm. 2 tasted like they'd definitely gone bad, the other 4 were borderline bad. Very bitter and had a gelatinous consistency - the sign of an oyster that hasn't been cold for a while. Not served on ice btw. The shrimp and octopus mix was drowned in cocktail sauce. It's all you could really taste. The ceviche was the only thing on the plate that wasn't bad. As far as the service goes, no greeting, no checking up on you (not even once), and I had to ask three times before I got limes. If your looking for fresh Mexican, you this is not it.
