I have been here a few times and have only received my order wrong when I placed it wrong. Sometimes I forget to request the pico de gallo which for some reason isn't a default on the carne asada fries. The place is small, usually quieter than you would expected and since most orders are to go, there is usually available seating. I wish there hot salsa was hotter, but all of their salsas have good flavor. Service is good, flavors are good for what it is. I'd recommend you try it out.

When they first served them to me they had peanuts so I returned to the front to let them know that I am allergic and I asked for them without peanuts. They took the old box in the back and closed the door. When she brought it back out, I asked to see the old box because I didn't see them put a new one together. She said she threw the old one away but I saw her the whole time and didn't hear anything go in the trash. It is a heavy box. She swore that she threw it away and handed me the box and assured me that she heard that I was allergic to peanuts. While sitting to eat I got a little ways through the box when I noticed there were peanuts in the new box under some stuff. I believe they just picked the peanuts off the top and gave it back to me like I wouldn't notice. I do not recommend this place. I could have ended up in the hospital.

We ordered: Mar Y Tierra burrito - surf and turf style burrito, steak was so flavorful. Asada burrito - some of the best flavored asada there is in Daygo! Only downfall is they are not cheap by no means but, it's the quality you are paying for at this location! Both burritos out the door was a smidge over $30. Inflation is REAL! Might as well make sure you are getting quality food for your buck! If in the hood, don't hesitate to stop by CONTODO for your taco shop fix!

They were not those flimsy cornmeal tortillas, they were authentic tortillas de maize. Handmaid while I waited for the order. Delicious. While I was waiting for my order the gentleman I talked to said they had taken over the restaurant 5 months ago. So new owners.

They are available from 9-11am, and you can choose from a range of meat & your choice between French fries, breakfast potatoes or hash brown. I decided to go with the classic French fry and carne asada for all 3 & total came out to $16.78 which is amazing for the quality of the burritos! They were a perfect size, not too small at all. They were ready fast and they were delicious! I loved the salsas too. They have a red,green & habanero & all of them are good. Green is mild. Red is hot but not too much, and the habanero is spicy with a good flavor profile. The salsas complemented the burrito nicely, which is definitely a bonus! This was my first time visiting, but definitely not my last. I will be back for their yummy breakfast burritos, salsa and nice service! The burritos made my family & I very happy and was a great way to start our day. I'd say this place is definitely worth a try!

Racist ass people!!! Only 5 people allowed in the store, ok cool I respect that. But vendors don't count seriously... why would you tell someone that works in customer service..that's the most annoying and ignorant shit I've ever heard. You dumb ass cashier lady did you know that vendors are people as well and they can have the Corona virus just like us customers. Well I guess she didn't see it that way.. dumb ass. On top of that we let the lady/vendor go before us!! She didn't even know...she was suppose just walk in we let her go before us due to her having a large tray in her hand and really hot outside. Then this other guy cut us and she cashier didn't say a word... WOW. You have wonderful customer service... NOT... Someone needs more training.. I'm talking to the cashier lady. Oh yeah it's Tuesday May 5th at 4pm. read more

It sounded good but we also weren't really feeling like going "out" and something that could be delivered or that we could pick up seemed like the better play. All the typical poke places showed up when we searched but none of them really sold us. Well, good thing I remembered that Valley Farm's poke game is strong... really strong. Believe me, I know that those of you who don't know Valley Farm will likely say "really?" when I detail that this sleepy little Spring Valley market kicks out poke as good as anywhere else in SD, but it's true. It's a sleeper of a choice but the quality and price will make you a fan, trust me.

It just tasted like salmon coated in some kind of sesame oil. I still ate it with snacking seaweed but I would not buy again. -Hatch chile Caesar wrap, I liked that the wrap was soft and not soggy. Chicken was grilled and diced, lettuce was crunchy and hatch chile tasted grilled and notably cold, came with Caesar dressing on the side. There was nothing wrong with the ingredients but together it just made a very underwhelming wrap, I didn't really taste any flavor from the wrap even with the help of the dressing. I also would not buy again. Ambiance 5/5 -They had a lot of ready-to-eat food options, both hot and cold. Even though I didn't like what I got this time, I'm open to come back and try other things they have.

This place is small but well kept and you can see by the store front that they care about their image and customers. How many times have you driven by and kept going?? I know, well that was me too until today! Chorizo Guerrerense is most likely an amazing resource for San Diego's best eateries with a Spanish / Mexican flair. I purchased some chorizo, took it home and made it with huevos and it was fabuloso!! I will definitely be back. This place is a reminder why we drive out for specific, important ingredients like Italian sausages and cheese or just that right bottle of wine. Guerrerense has obviously put a lot of pride into their product. This chorizo is absolutely the bomb! So much flavor, the seasonings are just right and the spiciness is complimentary to the sausage. Not salty, just balanced. All I added was salt, garlic, and olive oil and cooked it out with fine diced shallots and wow, it was amazing. Recommend 100%!!

I've always heard this fiery pepper had sweetness and fruity flavors, but I have always been hesitant to try it. I like heat, somewhat, but it has to balance everything else without blowing your palette. This salsa was exceptionally balanced, and I can taste the "fruitiness," and then BAM! My mouth went on fire like a spark turns into a roaring fire! It was fantastic! When my mouth recovered, a few minutes later, I wanted more. I can't believe it! The salsa bar, or better described as a hot sauce bar, has the usual green salsa, but the other two are both roasty and toasty. I don't know the exact names of them, but they're especially yummy! After eating the inside of the taco, I ate just the corn tortillas... Wow! They tasted like they're freshly handmade - so delicious! Oh yeah; you know I'm coming back!

When we went in there was a man working the counter and it was no frills service. They accept card so that's helpful. To top it off they offer a salsa bar which is getting more rare nowadays since a lot of places are getting so cheap and greedy with their hot sauce or even limits you. Their habanero salsa is really good it has a good kick and is actually pretty spicy. The avocado salsa is usually pretty good but this last time it was sooo salty it was inedible. The roasted salsa was good and spicy as well. Lately the last few times their salsas have made my stomach hurt really bad but that won't stop me. We've ordered the California burrito, carne asada, supreme burrito, fish burrito, hard shell shredded beef tacos and they were all pretty good. Decent sizes and meats were always juicy and flavorful.
