Our downtown office ordered via GrubHub based on someone’s experience with them at another location. When I went to pick up the food the staff was smiles and nice. The moment I asked if the food was labeled for each person’s order THEY told me that it was not indicated on the receipt and the attitude began. I was begrudginly given a pen and the handwritten order slip. I asked for assistance to figure out which tacos were which; they were NOT happy to do that but did. I asked for additional green sauce and was told NO THERE IS NONE (meanwhile it was in the food prep area). The food is average, at best. Other local shops have much better choices, much better portions, for much better prices and service with a smile.

Carne asada taco & burrito: A mild flavor followed by some strong punches.

Portions are good. The food is amazing. Need I say more? Make sure to try the Ribeye Taco. It’s sublime. Everything is made fresh in the spot.

Although it’s a little more expensive than some taco places, the tacos are delicious and well dressed. The rib eye is especially good. I also appreciate that they have a couple Resident beers on tap. It doesn’t look like a typical taqueria with its pink neon sign and lights, but don’t be fooled: this place is legit.

The flavor mix was pleasant. However I found the carne asada very dry, and the mix taco (right on the picture) didn’t look like it was really worth 10$ by itself.

A quick stop turned out to be quite a gem. We got the Surf and Turf taco. The size was perfect for a small appetite, but I could see that adding a smaller street taco would be a perfect meal. The flavors were awesome; some heat but not too much. Layers upon layers of flavor and the green salsa was superb. Meat was super tender and of high quality, and paired with a local brew, perfecto! We will return!

Traveled to San Diego from Vancouver and really wanted to try good tacos. Had their signature surf and turf (rib eye and shrimp). It was hands down one of the best I’ve ever had, and great customer service. If you’re in the area you must try this place!

Hands-down one of the best taco places in San Diego, maybe in all of California. The black Al Pastor tacos have just the right amount of spice. Fresh salsa every day. Ribeye quesadilla is juicy and the fresh guacamole is a perfect pairing.
