    Pescado, camarón, pulpo

    If you are in Otay, you have to eat here. Great service, food was amazing! Crunchy taco, la mazateña taco... amazing. Don't forget the complimentary consume.

    This is possibly one of my favorite mariscos spots in tj. It can get very busy and packed so be ready to wait for a table. Service is pretty quick and the servers are efficient. Even if your server isn't around, you can always ask someone else to bring you whatever else you need. There is plenty of parking, don't forget to tip the parking attendants. As far as food goes, everything is always fresh and flavorful. My go to tacos are the camarón enchilado with cheese, crunchy octopus and machaca de pulpo con camarón. I also love the aguachile verde. The lemonade there is a must! Made fresh on the spot and you can choose mineral water or regular water.

    Price in pesos, each plate was about $3 +

    This is a very popular place among locals and with foodies who seek out hole in the wall restaurants. If you like tacos and Mexican food you most likely will love this place. The food was good but I am not particularly fond of tacos or Mexican food. I would not cross the border to eat this again. Two people in our group swears that this place was the bomb. Well, to each his own. I came here to try it out and see what the fuss is about. Food is definitely a very personal thing, just like politics, religion and fart. Mine smell so good and yours stink like holy hell.

    Crunchy pulpo taco

    Soooooo glad we stopped here before crossing back home. Crunchy Pulpo, Camarón tacos were amazing! Get the complimentary consume!!!

    Hands down the best pulpo enchilados! It's worth the wait for their food. The seafood is always fresh. We've tried a few different things on the the menu and it's all delish! Definitely will be back when in Mexico, especially when we cross back at Otay.

    The Ciudad Industrial branch of the legendary El Mazateno. Saw that they had opened a new one driving through Ciudad Industrial - not sure when it opened - and gave it a try. Food just like the original. Which is why it rates 5 stars. Great service. My biggest issue with the original is the parking, especially on Swap Meet day (which I kind of think is every day). The Ciudad Industrial branch is in a small shopping complex, and the parking on the day we went was equally as bad.You can probably find parking on the west side side street - we parked across the boulevard and made the running dash across. Not the smartest, but traffic was light. For landmark reference, this restaurant shares is in the same complex as an OXXO. Smaller and doesn't have the funky feel of the main restaurant, but closer to the Otay border crossing and an easy drive.

    I was trying to find a place to eat before heading back home and found this gem! Best shrimp tacos I've had so far! Generous portions and it's super cheap too!

    The tacos here are really good! The service was also very fast and friendly. They load the tacos…read morewith lots of well seasoned crispy meat and generous amount of guacamole. I only had two asada wish I got more before heading back home. Give it a try! There's no tables or chairs and no bathrooms.

    Yelp Mexico Badge + Taco Crawl = ¡El mejor y delicioso día de todos!…read more After the first two street vendor taco crawls, Taco Isabel was our (with Yelp Buddies Ran C. and Isobel L.) third street vendor taco crawl/stop before hitting up Avenida Revolución. Ran had eaten here before and he liked it, and so of course, I wasn't going to pass up the opportunity to try out their birria taco. When in Rome (well, Mexico, lol!)... Side Note: The first two vendors do not have their own Yelp page nor permanent spot locations. First vendor was Tacovarios La Guerita ($1.25 breakfast bistec con papas taco) and the second vendor was Tacos Veloz ($2 for birria taco + Mexican Coca-Cola). For $1.20, their birria was tender, meaty and a generous portion too! Dipped in the birria's juices and topped with cilantro and onions, I would get this again! Served with two corn tortillas, I especially, loved that they fry them up a bit. Not only does it give that yummy and crunchy effect, but it also holds up the fillings nicely. I would have gotten the Adobada (similar to al pastor) as well, but I needed to save room for the rest of our trip, hehe! Service: The staff here are friendly and quick. Just tell them what kind of taco(s) you want, and it'll be ready within less than five minutes. When you're done eating, you can give them back the plastic plates (a lot of the street taco vendors recycle their plastic plates - some have plastic bags wrapped over them while others rinse them out). You'll also pay after you're done eating (opposite end of the cart). Taco Isabel accepts both American money and pesos. Ambience and Décor: Al fresco, street dining, hehe! Watch out for cars. They have a few chairs to sit on behind their cart. There's also a counter (standing room only) in front of their cart. Definitely recommend checking out Taco Isabel. Their birria is tasty and getting the Adobada next time!

The service was fantastic, the ingredients fresh, and the flavors absolutely delicious. For my husband's 30th birthday, we had about 20 people over and decided to have them cater with a simple drop off. The two women who delivered were amazing, so kind, informative, and in and out in no time. I definitely over ordered, but we ended up with leftovers for a few days, which were perfect for breakfast burritos, nachos, and more. We went with carne and chicken, and the chicken is amazing. Everything was flavorful and high quality. Ordering was super easy and straightforward. Would 100% recommend, 10/10, will absolutely use again.
