Machaca burrito, added extra cheese. Total was $15.
Veronica A.

I can't believe I have never been here and I live just a few blocks down! The staff is super friendly and the food was delicious. I saw that there was a review complaining about the price. My Machaca burrito was $14 and it was literally the size of my forearm.. I am 5'7' so I don't have short arms. The "salsa especial" left me speechless. YUM!

Was my #1 spot but I can't justify $18 for a burrito Yummy food and friendly staff, I am honestly bummed out that I won't be able to go here as much

Chilaquiles with green sauce
Loribelle D.

This place was so clean. The food was fresh. Everything was really good. The Jamaica was not too sour or sweet, just right. The Machaca burrito was good, but had too much veggies. They brought the food to us and was asked if everything was fine. Would come back again!

Was in the area and we sere already hungry. Decided to eat at the closest place. Found this hole in the wall. Food was okay BUT the service was great. They were very friendly and attentive. I felt I was home. I may come back and try something else

Friendly staff, quick orders, variety of food. I was a little bit disappointed and how the quesadilla looked but it did taste delicious.

La Puerta, a local Mexican inspired cocktail bar and restaurant with a phenomenal open-air…read moredining/bar located in Mission Hills. For my last couple of trips in, which have all gotten me into Sean Diego early afternoon, La Puerta is normally one of my first stops as their afternoon happy hour is second to none and offers 50% off appetizers, quesadillas and cocktails...so it's a no brainer! I have sampled my way through the cocktails and appetizers, and while everything is tasty, my favorite cocktail is easily the Gin & Juice, and tastiest appetizer is the cochinita flautitas with the chipotle sauce. While I am not a connoisseur myself, my friends love this spot for the impressive variety of liquors, especially good quality tequilas and whiskeys. The G&J is floral from the hibiscus, earthy from the aquafaba and hominy and then classic from the citrusy gin and lemon. A perfect, well-balanced and delightful cocktail! The flautitas are perfectly fried mini taquitos that are filled just enough with the goods and queso, then a quick dip in the chipotle sauce does them good! Service was solid from entry to exit. We were after a table originally, but saw a few spots at the bar, so we bellied up there. The bartenders were friendly, knowledgeable and fun to interact with. The space is gorgeous, super vibey, clean and well kept. Absolute perfection that holds to the theme, but also speaks to the neighborhood. Overall, La Puerta always finds itself on my "to do" list when visiting San Diego, and for good reason!

It was around 10:15pm on a Thursday night and the kitchen was about to close. We ordered a bunch of food and shared. Here's a run down of everything we had: STREET TACOS: we tried the following:: (they were out of the shrimp) El pastor tacos (5/5) Pollo asado tacos (4.5/5) Carne asada tacos (4/5) the steak was overcooked IMO It comes with rice and beans on the side and it was all delicious!! We also ordered fries which were delicious and the Al pastor quesadilla. I will definitely be coming back for these because they were fire!! The spicy margs are also delicious! The ambiance is 10/10, it's beautiful inside and our waiter was fast & efficient. I'll be back!

We had the Mango Habanero Aguachiles and the Breakfast Tlayuda as well and both were superb. For me the Aguachiles needed a bit more spice so Karen recommended their matcha salsa and that went well with everything! Will definitely be coming back! Thank you all for a great experience!

He was friendly, attentive, conscientious, and timely throughout our entire meal. He made sure we had everything we needed without ever being overbearing. My mother even said she would eat at Coasterra every day if Case were her server, that's how impressed she was with his service! He truly went above and beyond and made our dining experience extra special. And the food was AMAZING! Everything we ordered was delicious, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. You can definitely tell there is care put into the food. The meals are a little on the pricey side, but considering the beautiful setting, quality of the food, and exceptional service, we felt it was worth it for a special occasion. We will definitely be back, and hopefully we'll get Case as our server again! He is a true asset to Coasterra.

I went with the espresso martini, which was delicious and hit the spot. A special shoutout to Stephanie, our server, who was incredibly friendly and checked on us regularly throughout our visit. Great drinks, outstanding service, and unbeatable views. We'll definitely be back.

Oscars Mexican Seafood is in my top 3 favorite in all of CA!…read more I'm from LA, and everytime I'm in SD I make my way to Oscars. The food here is always fresh and full of flavor. The fish tacos are breaded to perfection and packed with a juicy fish. The surf and turf burrito is my favorite. They do not skimp out on the protein, it's a delicious burrito. The sauces make the food even better. Casual, cool vibes, with limited indoor and outdoor seating. Also ask for the complimentary seafood broth, it's so good and soothing. Staff is friendly and attentive. I highly recommend Oscars!

I don't get it…read more Saturday 10:45am. Party of 8. They have some outdoor seating but was able to get a spot inside to fit us all. Very small location! We sat under the TV and it was so loud that we couldn't hear each other talking even while right next to each other. We asked them to turn down the volume which wasn't an issue. Food was okay. As a seafood restaurant, I was expecting the seafood to be great. I enjoyed the turf in my taco more than the surf! The tacos I had were good and seems to be their main focus on perfecting because everything else was below mediocre. I usually prefer a lot of lime in my ceviche but this was waaayyy too lime-y. And I have never seen elotes sitting in a soup! Plus, the rice and beans were bland! Their sauces are very good though!

This is my first time dining inside this California Burrito Restaurant…read more I was driving around in this area and I saw this California Burrito Restaurant and I wanted to give this place a try. I enjoy eating authentic Mexican cuisine. I parked my car in their parking lot then I walked inside their front door. I talked to the owner Caesar and asked him How long has he been in business at this Starling Drive location in San Diego, CA? Caesar said he's been operating his California Burrito Restaurant business for 20 years now. Caesar also said to me that he works with his wife and grown children at his Mexican restaurant every day. My order was placed by Caesar today for my lunch time meal at 12:30 PM. I ordered one Beans and Cheese Burrito. The price is $7.50. Then I had to pay a tip of 20 percent that came up to $1.25. The tax was $1.50. My total purchase today was $9.25. I had to wait at least 30 minutes later until my order number 109 was called to the front counter today. There was non stop walk in customers coming into this California Burrito Restaurant at the lunch hour between 12:30 AM to 2:30 PM today. Their majority of their customers were of Mexican descent and I saw only 3 Black People placing their orders with Caesar today. I was the only Asian person ordering from this California Burrito Restaurant this afternoon. I also noticed 2 Nurses picking up their orders today who work for Sharp Memorial Hospital today. This man and woman nurse were of Caucasian descent. It's interesting for me to get to know the population of people who are living nearby this Starling Drive location. Caesar called my order number 109 today. Then I was served a really HUGE Beans and Cheese Burrito. I also drank cold ice water today. It was a beautiful day today because the weather conditions were very cool and cloudy. I sat down at this window seat so I could see the outside. The Beans and Cheese Burrito was very tasty the beans were refried and thete was a very generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese. The Tortilla was heated up and slightly toasted. This Beans and Cheese Burrito was a HUGE Size. I wasn't sure that I had an appetite to finish eating this Beans and Cheese Burrito but the flavor was amazing! I kept taking small bites on this Beans and Cheese Burrito for my lunch time meal this afternoon. I also received excellent customer service from Caesar and the rest of his family I saw was working very hard in the back kitchen area preparing and making their very popular Carne Asada Burritos. I also saw Caesar and an older lady sweeping up the floor and also mopping up the floor inside their front entrance to their California Burrito Restaurant Caesar told me to come in again soon to try their Steak Carne Asada Burrito. This item is the most popular food in their California Burrito Menu. I told Cesar the owner 3 I will dine inside his restaurant again soon. I love Carne Asada Burritos.

Theres counter space with about 5 stools inside and 4 tables outside. This is more of a take out spot. Parking may be limited depending on the time of day/night you go.
