Alvaro’s is a 24-hour Mexican spot in north county Sam Diego that remains open both as a walk-in and a drive-thru. The California burrito is pretty solid and well-balanced with ingredients. The salsa is all right, but they give a generous amount if you ask. Definitely great as a late night spot.

Found this place by accident tucked into a quiet little neighborhood. The beef tacos, rice, and beans were delicious. Very fresh tasting and reminded me of grandma’s cooking. The enchiladas mixtas were also delicious. Service was quick and friendly. They have a very small dining area inside, but do offer some dining room outside. Their drive through is small, but efficient and you can actually understand the person speaking to you through the microphone. Self serve soda machine and good sized salsa bar with plenty of options available. Very clean inside and out. You can see into part of their kitchen from the dining room window and even that area was clean. Can’t wait to go back if I’m in the area again.

One word: cheap. Not the price, but the quality. We ordered the dine-in option and still received plastic utensils, sauces, and it was served in a styrofoam container. We thought that restaurants had finally started reducing waste or at least using more sustainable alternatives. We were wrong. My “veggie” burrito was mostly cheese and sour cream. I would not recommend to anyone. I wish we had went to Nutmeg across the street (sadly, it was closing).

A great place to go if you are hungry. The food is about an A-minus, and there’s a lot of it and it’s not too expensive. Nice that they’re open late and usually not super crowded!

Best Mexican food in Poway. We really loved their salsa bar. Meat was nice and the burritos were huge.
