    The most expensive breakfast burrito I ever bought I work close by I have not been there for a long time this time I tried them. I paid almost $22 for a breakfast burrito and was not that good. Also, they charge me non-cash 3.5%. never gone back there again.

    This is a quick order no frills place. For being In San Diego County not the best Mexican food. I had chile verde, it was average, not to spicy, oh but they forgot to give me my flour tortilla and this was a to go order. Crispy taco with beef was good too. Probably lots of better choices, but where we were driving to was perfect. Had to put the picture of sign in window

    First time visiting, it's okay overall - but idk if I'll be running back for a 2nd visit. The customer service was nice, no complaints there. Order was taken down fast, and I didn't have to wait too long at all. I ordered the #4 combination plate (bean tostada, beef taco, and cheese enchilada) and a pollo asada burrito to go. Altogether ~$28 Forgot to take a picture before, but the taco and tostada has a lot of toppings. The flavor of the beans and rice were OK. The amount of meat in the beef taco, I thought only had a little bit and expected more meat. Took a few bites of the burrito and just not a fan. Again, seems like a little bit of meat and way more toppings/Pico de gallo/lettuce/guacamole than needed, and wrapped as a tiny burrito. It's OK. It's not bad. But it's not great. Came here to try something new, I'll probably give it another try some time.

    was "in-line" at Urgent Care and, after a three-hour wait, we got hungry. slipped next door for a little something-something to tide us over. Wyatt had Chicken Enchiladas, and I had Chicken Rolled Tacos with guac and cheese. pretty tough to screw up either dish and, to their credit, El Bronco didn't. neither was great but both were certainly OK. it was late morning (they're open for breakfast) and except for two guys who ordered in front of us, the place was empty. it took ridiculously long for everything to arrive. apparently, they had to raise and butcher the chicken. El Bronco takes a very mañana attitude toward service. with a fast-food Mexican place on every corner, this is NOT a destination restaurant. while we waited at El Bronco, I entertained myself checking to see if OJ was hiding in the back seat.

    My thoughts are reserved and one sided do to the fact I have been visiting since the mid-90s before the addition of the the current shopping center presented today; basically I am a fan of local businesses. With that said, I was fixated on the amount of rules and regulations posted on the wall around the register from the amount of salsas allowed to being charged soda if caught using a water cup. Food: my order of six rolled tacos with everything was on point. Costumer service was on point: friendly, helpful, and most important polite. Layout: clean Overall assessment worth visiting but if I can provide any positive criticism remove the rules and regulations plastered all over the restaurant; 1) the grammar needs correcting and 2) it's an eye sore...

    Very good mexican food. Average price (7-11 per combo plato). Fairly quick for a sitdown restaurant.
