The Truck
Jack M.

It's always nice to run into a new food truck. This is an interesting truck, given it's own by a Turkish gentleman who makes some pretty good Mexican Food. I had the grilled fish burrito. It was a very good burrito and came very well wrapped. The fish was very well seasoned and tender. The mayo base sauce was very good too and complimented the fish well. I liked all the freshly chopped cabbage, tomatoes and onions. The flour tortillas was of a good quality and tasted good. I only had the creamy chipotle sauce as an add on and it was very good. It offered good flavor and a mild heat. Service was good. You can find the truck on Imperial across the street from the Walmart Neighborhood Market.

Carne Asada Fries!!!

I'm currently sitting outside Duck Foot Brewing, drinking great beer and eating THE BEST DAMN CARNE ASADA FRIES I'VE EVER EATEN!! These fries are not your ordinary carne asada fries. They feel like a French cuisine meets Mexican street food hybrid sensation! The sauces are AMAZING! The fries came drizzled with a creamy sauce that is out of this world! The salsa on the side is hot, smoky and delightful. The carne asada is fresh and juicy and tender. Dear lord. I wish I had a bigger stomach! If you have the opportunity, treat yourself!!

Hidden gem!

We just ate some of the BEST TACOS that we have ever had!!! The carne asada and surf-n-turf tacos were so good!!!! Definitely coming back here for more. Oh, and their hot sauce is no joke!!!!

Convenient location. Delicious food! Ordered carne asada fries and shrimp ceviche tostada. Tender marinated steak and fresh shrimp! Complimentary cup of tomato soup was unexpected and warms you up. Stopping here every trip back to SD.

This place is so cool for celebrating special occasions…read more We celebrated our anniversary and they gave us a candle with our names on it!! So sweet The interior is so cool - very gothic medieval vibes inside!! We tried a couple of items but specifically LOVED the squash blossom and the crab donut and the duck memelita! The fried chicken tacos were pretty good as well Personally I did not love the fondue - comes with corn tortillas on the side - it's not my favorite style Drinks were great - I tried the guava Paloma and liked it a lot but wish it was a bit more sweet more guava flavor

Four of us dined at Quixote last night. I can see why it takes a few weeks to get a reservation…read more The place is truly magnificent. We ordered about six small plates, and they were all delicious and unique. Hard to pick a favorite. I'd say the shrimp tacos were absolutely incredible. Everything else was packed with flavor and very different than anything you will encounter at any other restaurant. It is special. My only complaint is that the place is so dark that you can barely read the menu. Also, being so dark, you can't get a good look at the food or even see color. And I would think that the food is beautifully presented. We are in our 60s. That might have something to do with our inability to see anything in that low light condition. We had to pull our phones out so that we could light up the menu and check out the food we were about to eat. It does make for a dramatic ambience. There are thousands of candles that add to the experience. But I gotta knock them a point because I couldn't see my food or read the menu without help.

Enjoyed the different flavors of ceviche and was a fan of the super crispiness of calamari. My fav was the ahi tuna tostada. Super dressed up and had a good mix of crunchy, tart, salty, and mildly spicy. The restaurant has a great view of the ocean especially if you sit outside. Our waiter was very friendly and our food came out in a timely manner.

The gentleman/waiter handed us the menu and went on his way. Chips and salsa along with waters for the table were brought and then that was when the service of our waiter went downhill. We ordered the ahi tuna and guacamole for our appetizers but the timing for the meal was so off. It was a long wait before the waiter even checked back on us and which is when I asked for a refill on my water and chips. We had order drinks as well. The smoked old fashion was good and the ahi tuna appetizer portion was plentiful. There were some parts of the diced ahi that was a bit chewy. The gaucamole portion was large and it wasn't until I asked another waiter did my refill of water and chips arrive. For entree, we got the scallops with corn cake, a salad and I had the poblano burger. I asked for the burger to be cooked to medium. When the entrees arrived my burger was overcooked with no pink in sight. The flavor of the burger was good but the burger was definitely dry as can be. The corn cake with scallop was interesting it was almost like the corn cake was a croquet that encased a corn salsa. Overall the food was okay but the service left a lot to be desired. The waiter and the end seemed to put up a fake act when the check came. Since we asked for the check it seemed like the waiter was on hyper speed. Overall the view is nice but the food and service did not meet the expectations.
