    The food here was good, we ordered the California burrito, the beef taco and rolled tacos special. The service was quick but I am removing one star because the food was not warm, even though they started making our food after we ordered. The meat was flavorful, and my rolled tacos were thick, cripsy and covered in sauce and guac. We also enjoyed their hot sauces, a spicy green sauce that was our favorite and a dark smokey sauce that did pair nicely with the beef taco.

    Large selection of foods.

    Loved this place, super authentic Mexican food. And I know authentic Mexican - I approve. The service was great and prices were good. The food was made quickly too. Overall great.

    Stopped in for a late night meal with my wife, got a free drink with our food order. This is your typical small Mexican place environment. The service was good and I liked their green hot sauce. The food may not have been as fresh as I would have liked (it was late after all) but it still tasted good. I would go here again. Another plus is they are not stingy on hot sauce as many places seem to have become. You get a whole bottle to use as you like! Will update this review later when we go back.

    The beans were so cold the cheese never melted on top.

    Lots of regulars in here loving this sweet little Mexican Food eatery. Tasting there food I can see why. I ordered their #2 Combo Plate: Cheese Enchilada & Chili Rellano with rice and beans. All very tasty. Came with a roasted pepper on top. Even the pepper was delicious. I'm not a fan of sweet sauces on savory items but the touch of sweetness in their Enchilada Sauce worked. My rice and beans were on the lukewarm side. Hence the lack of a fifth star for now. They kindly microwaved it though. Free parking. We'll be back!

    I've passed by Chito's a few times during lunch and one day finally came in. Located near Target right off the 78 freeway, you'll find Chito's Taco Shop. When I first walked in, I didn't expect for the restaurant to look big inside, but was pleasantly surprised. It was also well maintained. I was greeted by a friendly worker who took my order at the counter. Ordered five rolled tacos. Looked over at their flavored drinks and saw that the horchata dispenser was missing so I opted for a fountain drink. Their salsa bar already had individual containers of red and green sauce, a nice touch that seems more sanitary than your regular pour your own sauce bar. The guacamole that came with the rolled tacos was more of a creme versus your typical thicker guacamole. Wasn't too bothered by that since it was still flavorful. I also like how there was a substantial and equal amount of cheese and lettuce. It was a filling meal overall and a pretty good lunch option.

    I don't know about the rest of their food but the rolled tacos are the best I've had in North County San Diego!! You can tell that they roll the tacos themselves because how they look and how thick they were. Also the green sauce that they put on the tacos is amazing! I will definitely be back for the real tacos.

    Pico that they call their salsa with a nice chunk of mystery meat in it

    The chilaquiles were fantastic! The mole sauce was a little on the spicy side but really great flavor.

    This place in San Marcos is CRAFTed and curated to perfection. We used to come here when it was…read moreRip Current. Even though that closed this place was a nice surprise in its venue takeover. You order at the Bar counter for your Brew & for the tacos. The food is made at their permanent fixture food truck outside. The tacos are amazing and generously portioned. The Birria was my favorite! Carne asada was good too. The staffers are nice and ready to serve. There is high communal and individual table top seating inside and sports playing on the TV. Picnic Bench tables out on the front patio are & close to the food truck. It's pretty busy but worth the little wait for your tacos to be done. So sip sip while you wait for the buzzer to go off! Looking forward to our next visits here.

    The tacos were delicious as can be, the birria tacos had me go for seconds as they were that good…read morealone! The workers there were super friendly and chill and when asking about their in house beers they were not hesitant to see what you like and give you a beverage to the best of your liking! The lighting inside is just right for day or night as it allows natural lighting in during the day with the garage door style windows and when it's night time the interior lights are not over powering to brighten up the place! If you all have not tried the "local motion" i HIGHLY recommend it if you like a great IPA! If you are looking for a great place with good vibes and a perfect place to kick back to eat tacos and have a beer or two i definitely recommend craft coast in San Marcos!
