    An all around always-going-to-be-good spot. Will say this is a 4.5 because the Onlyyyyy thing that can be improved is the Quesabirria. Would say this can use a little more liquid or include a consomé like many places do nowadays. This is not stopping the renoccuring visits. Carne asada/ pollo asada fries good Cali burrito good Tacos gooooood. (Fish/ shrimp/ carne/ pollo) Appreciate that the orange salsa actually has spice to it and the other red and green also tasty. Desserts pleasantly surprised us. The arroz con leche is a repurchase. Everyone always friendly . Parking is limited but will usually find a space. Space is small but clean from what you can see. Worth trying it if looking for good Mexican taco shop.

    Heard great things about this place & decided to give it a try with my family. Ordered a California burrito, an order of three beef rolled tacos, and a half order of the surf fries. There's no seating inside, you just order to go or you can order and sit outside. The employee who took our order was very patient and friendly while we looked over the menu. The rolled tacos were alright compared to other taco shops we've been to. My husband said next time he would pass on the surf and turf fries & order the California burrito instead.

    Got a beef taco and a quesadilla, the quesadilla was amazing and the taco was good but but next time I'll ask for extra cheese, and the cashier was beautiful and attentive. Excellent customer service.

    Wow that was amazing the best Burrito ever and let me tell you I am picky when it comes to Mexican food. It's call Skyline

    5 rolled tacos, 2 fish tacos, 1 carne asada taco, &cheese quesadilla

    Service was fast& efficient! Everything pretty good. The green sauce is bomb! Myself & 2 kids ate everything &was full! The batter for the fish was a bit thick though.

    Chorizo Burrito or Potato Burrito?

    Can I get some chorizo with my chorizo burrito though? Look how much potatoes are in just HALF a burrito? 3 stars because everything else is pretty good at this place. I miss when pickled onions were part of the tacos; that was when they first opened.

    Ok foos I asked some questions to learn more. They make their roll tacos fresh every day and the crispy tacos are made to order. I had a Mikita last time and it was good. This time I ordered street tacos and a quesabirria to see how it was They also make their Aguas frescas they are not powdered. They make the tortillas fresh as well. So basically no frozen stuff like many of the popular spots including Roberto's The pollo asado and carnitas tacos were delish. The quesabirria was really delish.

    Hard shell beef tacos are super good, the food is always hot and made to order, clean benches to sit at and great customer service. They always greet me with a smile and prompt service, I can come any day of the week and they are nice. I come here on my lunch breaks whenever I can.

    *I ordered through door dash* so I can't speak for the establishment itself. I ordered the rolled tacos with chicken. The chicken was okay I also asked for salsas and utensils. They did provide one of each salsa they had which I don't think was enough. I ordered the fries thinking they were the same as the picture I posted but nope they were just plain fries lol. So not sure if it's a restaurant issue or door dash. Fries were thin and crispy tho. Just bummed they weren't what I was expecting. The horchata was bombbbbb. It was cold and just the right amount of sweetness. Might try them again but go in person to see the actual menu. Paid around 25 bucks for all three items.

    Based on their Yelp reviews I decided to give this place a try. It's a small, unsuspecting place with a pretty straightforward menu and a variety of food options. It was late, so I called in my order to decrease my wait time. I was disappointed when they said they no longer sell the pork belly taco I saw on their Instagram page, so I decided to go with the pollo asado fries, Adobado taco, and spicy shrimp taco. The chicken on the fries was seasoned well and moist and the fries toppings were plentiful and super fresh. I expected a little more flavor from the Adobado taco, but it was still tasty. The spiciness of the spicy shrimp taco was so overpowering that I wasn't able to enjoy it. It was freshly made, but I just couldn't get past the heat. The quality and flavor of the tortillas, fresh salsas, and Horchata were a huge plus. Customer service was great. Wait time was as expected. I'll definitely be back to try more things!

    I was excited to see a New Mexican restaurant on nearby. Fish tacos are good and good value. One of my go to places.

    Wanted to try some tacos while out here and this one had good reviews. It was also near our hotel…read morewe were staying at in Gaslamp. They have drawings all over their walls which was fun to look at. They have a few specials which are a good deal if you're going to get a drink anyway. I love c that c they had a self serve salsa bar. Must get the chipotle shrimp taco! 10/10 with flavor. Battered fish taco was ah ok.... Salmon taco was great too 10/10. Service was prompt. We had chips and salsa while we waited so it was cool. Overall, I recommend checking this out and trying the chipotle shrimp and salmon taco!

    I stopped by on a Wednesday after a fútbol game and found it to be a great late-night option…read more Ordering is simple. You walk in, place your order at the counter, and find a seat. There were a couple of groups dining in and someone picking up a to-go order, but there was still plenty of seating available. The employee working the counter was friendly. They also serve alcohol, and during my visit drinks were 20% off. Options included Pacifico, Modelo, Blue Moon, hard seltzers, and a selection of canned craft beers. I ordered: * Mahi Mahi Taco: the fish tasted fresh, and I liked the crispy onions on top. There was quite a bit of sauce, which made it pretty messy to eat. While the fish was good, it felt like a very heavy taco overall. * Surf & Turf Taco: this was loaded with steak and topped with two flavorful shrimp. The shrimp had an amazing flavor, and this taco was much more enjoyable and balanced. Overall, the service was great, the prices were very reasonable, and the protein quality was excellent. My only critique is that the tacos felt a little overdone with toppings and sauces when the quality of the protein could easily stand on its own. Still, it's a solid spot for an affordable late-night bite. One thing to note: there are no restrooms available inside the restaurant.

    Sometimes, there are nights when only tacos can fix me. It's no secret that San Diego has tacos in…read morespades and being so close to the border, you'd think that a quest to find the perfect taco would be as simple as rolling down to the nearest taqueria. Except, it's not quite that simple. Many beloved staples have gone downhill, while some newer spots that might boast things like a Michelin mention or multiple locations ranging from TJ to Vegas contain more hype and gristle than tender meat and substance. Enter Chula Tacos. Chula is, and always was, the type of place that makes you forget that you're not actually in Tijuana. While part of me misses their OG Market Street location, seeing them with brick-and-mortars feels hard-earned and well-deserved. This location on Palm in IB is relatively easy to access from the freeway, but parking can be tricky. You can safely assume that it will be busy and you will either have to be very lucky or be willing to find a spot on the street. Out of all the times I've been here, it's always been crowded enough that I've never been able to find a table inside, but I enjoy sitting out on the patio next to the ahumederos. The first thing that hits you walking through the door is how amazing everything smells. The queue to the cashier takes you near a window showing the kitchen where you can see the Chula Tacos team making fresh tortillas, slicing meat from the trompos, grilling up jalapenos, nopales, onions, labio, and tripa. For me, it's not so much a challenge to decide what I want, it's more a challenge to keep myself from ordering everything. My usual is four tacos: two asada, two al pastor (but I've heard that I should also try their world famous keka). The tacos though? Perfection. Every time, the asada is the juiciest and most tender I've ever eaten, the al pastor is succulent and flavorful, and no taco in front of me is long for the world. At $3.50 each, every one of them is absolutely loaded. Three would honestly fill me up, but I always want four. After getting burned by spots that ask around 75% more and deliver anywhere between 25-50% less, Chula Tacos feels like an absolute godsend of a Tijuana-style taqueria and I can't see any other contenders being my go-to. So, when I say "Tacos will fix me," what I mean nowadays is "Chula Tacos will fix me."

    Chula Tacos in Nestor is definitely worth a visit if you're looking for authentic, flavorful tacos…read morewith generous portions. Every item we ordered was packed with delicious flavors and made fresh. One thing that stood out was their attention to detail with to-go orders--they provided plenty of condiments, including a variety of salsas, cucumbers, radishes, and peppers, which really elevated the meal. The highlight of the menu is the Keka Taco. It is incredibly delicious, loaded with flavor, and so filling that it can easily satisfy even the biggest appetite. The only downside to this establishment is the limited parking, which can make picking up your order a bit challenging during busy times. However, the amazing food and generous portions more than make up for the parking inconvenience. If you're in the area, the Keka Taco is a must-try!

    I'm so mad about this place!! Hubby and I headed down to SD…read moreto get away from the heat in the OC. On the drive, I decided I wanted Mexican food. I picked a place off Google but when we landed there we were not comfortable stopping to park, so we looked again and decided to check out La Puerta not realizing it was in the Gaslight District. I am not a fan of the Gaslight District, which is why I am so mad!! I'm going to HAVE to go back to the Gaslight District!! The food was AMAZING!! I HIGHLY recommend the Potato Flautitas. It's the kind of dish I'm going to dream about, I'm salivating now just thinking about them. I also did the Pick 3 Street Tacos (and actually ordered a 4th). The Ranchero Shrimp and Grilled Veggie were top notch. The Conchinita was recommended by our waiter, and it was interesting, tasty but different. It could have used a little more pickled onion. The only one I would not recommend (shockingly, I thought it would be the easy pass) was the carne asada. It was too greasy. My husband ordered a carne asada quesadilla and said the same, it was too wet and soaked through the tortilla. But there were no many other delightful options, I would say just don't go traditional. But honestly my favorite thing on the plate was the side dish rajas con crema, seriously, that alone is going to drag me down to the Gaslight District. I'm even considering going to a Padres game just for the excuse. I'm salivating again! As for our waiter, Colin, he was fantastic. Very informative, made great suggestions and seemed genuinely pleased by our satisfaction. He was smiling the whole time, friendly and stayed very present. I highly recommend you get yourself through the door at La Puerta and sit down for a meal ASAP. (We ate the food so fast I forgot to take pictures.)
