Sep 12, 2026"Burrito de Carne Asada with Cheese and Sour cream. The carne is really good. Its really juicy and the pieces are thin and not chunky which i really like! The Burrito is really good but the ADD ON prices are ridiculous. And they rarely put any of the add ons i asked for. The customer service of the lady could be better ."

One thing that was a little annoying was the tv was extremely loud but maybe they were not expecting anyone when I went in. But overall the food was flavorful which matters the most."

Jul 15, 2026"So. Good. Authentic Mexican food and I got the Angus burrito. The chipotle sauce they use is something else. Their flour tortillas are unbelievable. This is why they flourish the in house made tortillas are a hit! No lie this was one of my top highlights when I visited San Diego. The price of these burritos were very reasonable for the huge portion size. I ended up going back the very next day and buying 2, one to eat and the other to take home on my way back to orange county. You won't be disappointed"
