    Not just adobada! They make the best tacos in town! I stopped riding my motorcycle to get tacos in Tijuana once I found Mr. Adobada. Their meat is fresh and their truck is CLEAN. They will take the time to make your tacos just how you like them. They have free beans, grilled onions and grilled peppers. Although they also sell carne asada fries and California burritos, their menu is authentic very well served. I lived in Mexico half my life and these tacos are on par with the best tacos I had in my village. Just look for the red food truck and also try their Birria food truck. Good for groups, to go and catering too

    My best friend and I were craving some tacos for the night. We stumbled upon this location, what caught our attention were these nice patio lights they had for decor. We get there and the vibe was very welcoming and uplifting with good music playing. I went ahead and placed my order of 3 tacos de adobada w/everything, 2 tacos de tripa extra cooked w/everything and a agua de jamaica. When I get called to get my food and requested their spiciest salsa which was mango habanero. I sat down and prepared my tacos with lime and salsa. That first bite I take was intense, so much flavor from the adobada meat and that burst from the mango habanero salsa. It was heaven in my mouth, I didn't want it to end. But unfortunately my stomach couldn't take anymore tacos after the five I ate. I'm going again today for round two though hehe! I highly recommend this location! I wish avocados weren't so expensive. Cause that would have made the tacos whole. Also, great prices!

    The food was pretty good, the horchata was the bomb but Me and friends all got horrible food poisoning. This is the only meat we ate all day, we had fruit for breakfast then this in the late afternoon and by night time we were throwing up.

    This has definitely become my go-to Taco Truck. I am in love with the Adobada Tacos. Tuesdays are my favorite because it's Taco Tuesday and the Adobada tacos are $0.99 each. The sauces are amazing and I love how you get the grilled onions and peppers. Right down the street from that Tacos El gordo place but so much better. 5 Stars.

    Mr.Fries. Cheese isn't even melted and the meat is cold .

    The owner of the food truck is the worst person ever ! she's RUDE to her employees ! Never keeps business professional, always has to talk bad about people and makes rumors ! She doesn't care about her client's satisfaction just the money. the food here is disgusting and the place is always DIRTY ! please don't waste your time at this location ! I was excited to eat here but was very disappointed.

    If you want Adobada (El Pastor) tacos this is one of the best spots. Always bomb and if you go on Taco Tuesday it is a good deal.

Just be more patient and mindful that they're doing the best they can Food 5/5 -mixed(surtido) and cheek(cachete) tacos, meat is TENDER. I honestly can't taste the difference between the two, I just knew I wanted to keep eating them(even after eating 3). Sturdy tortillas so the tacos weren't falling apart as I was eating, I also really liked that each table had two squeeze bottles of salsa, so convenient -orden/order, if you come here, you have to order this soup with the head meat. It's the essence that sums up the restaurant, it's a little peppery with the sweetness from the diced onions and meaty goodness. It comes with about 4 tortillas and there's a lot of meat in the soup to be made into more tacos Ambiance 5/5 -restaurant was full of people eating food happily(obviously the food was delicious) and there was a guy that sang for donations and vendors that came through selling trinkets, just a mixing pot of life and happy place to eat

    You have to try this place!…read more It's one of my family's favorite seafood spots. I've had the pulpo tostada and taco multiple times and they're always amazing, super fresh and never overcooked. I usually get the macho sauce on the side so I can spice it up to my level lol. My family has also tried the tuna tostada, micheladas, chilaquiles, and even Dino nuggets for the kids, everything has been consistently great every time we go. The service is always on point, the ambiance is nice, and it's in a great central location. We usually stop by Wood Market afterward to grab a few things. Highly recommend! definitely a spot we'll keep coming back to. Also, shoutout to the Convoy location, it's just as good!

Even though we were a bit late for the breakfast menu, they still let us order the Smoked fish, Gobernador, and Pork Belly-quiles. I loved the flavors, and it had just the right amount of spice I prefer. I also had a Mango-rita that snuck up on me in a good way. We each tried all three plates, and all agreed they were sumptuous. Everyone running the restaurant was super friendly and accommodating to special diet needs as well. I'm glad we tried this establishment. It was quite busy that day, but there was still plenty of parking, and they had booths to sit and enjoy the experience. Portions were large - we all had leftovers to take home. I would love to come back and try more of the menu!

I absolutely love the avocado and the different types of tacos they have. It was way more food than I expected! I expected to be small little tacos but they were actually big and delicious! The agua de Jamaica was so delicious and refreshing. Service was welcoming and fast! They have a parking lot. Definitely coming back!!!

    "Adobada looks very disappointing"…read more People on TikTok have been really hyping this spot up lately, so I went in expecting it to be one of those "best in San Diego" type places, but honestly that's exactly why you can't always trust food influencers who base everything off one bite and a good angle. First thing I noticed was the parking situation is rough there's basically none, and you can't even risk street parking because it's marked red, so right away it already starts off inconvenient. When we got there, the tables weren't clean, which kind of kills the vibe before you even order, but I will say the carne asada mulita actually surprised me in a good way, it was solid, flavorful, and probably the best thing we tried. They also have a bigger version called the keka that I didn't get, but I could see that being more filling if the mulita is any indication. Customer service was decent, nothing special but not bad either, just kind of there doing their job. Overall though, even with a good item on the menu, it's not enough for me to say this place lives up to the hype TikTok is pushing. In my opinion, in San Diego it's still hard to beat Tacos El Gordo, and I've seen people online try to downplay it saying places like Chula Taco are better, and I just don't think that's accurate from a real first-hand experience standpoint. At the end of the day, TikTok food reviews can be entertaining, but a lot of times it feels like people are just chasing views instead of consistency or credibility, and you really have to try places yourself before believing the hype.The adobada was a negative 5 stars just look at it adobada is not supposed to look like :( #Tacos #SanDiegoFood #TacoReview #FoodReview #StreetTacos #CarneAsada #TacoLovers #FoodTok #EatLocal #TacoLife

First, I ordered an adobada taco. The meat wasn't cooked properly on the trompo why ? :( then they threw it on the grill and ended up burning it. That completely defeats the point of even having a trompo if you're just going to burn the meat afterward. It had a bitter, burnt taste. Next, I got a carne asada taco, and it was completely overcooked and dry:(honestly, drier than the Mojave Desert. The tortilla was hard and didn't taste fresh at all. Nothing about the tacos tasted like the quality I remember. The customer service was just as disappointing. I stood in front of the carne asada guy for about 5 minutes before he even acknowledged me. What made that worse was that there were no other customers there t wasn't busy at all. The workers seemed more focused on talking and laughing with each other than paying attention to the food or the customers. I even think I saw what might've been the owner there, which makes this even more frustrating because this place used to be good. It feels like they're letting it go downhill. I'm giving this a one-star review, but I'm being honest when I say I actually want this place to get better. I'll give them one more chance in the future, but as of right now, this was a really bad experience.
