What a great little taco spot. Friendly service, fair prices and big portion sizes. I had the shredded beef tostada and it was just as good as it looks in the photo. Would definitely come back! Why not five stars? While the food was on point, it was nothing super extra-special or unique ... just really good Mexican. read more

Robertos Mexican Food - Shredded beef tostada - Mexican Near Me - Encinitas, California

Just go to Taco Bell. Over priced and meat tasted like it was stored for a couple of days.

This was a-ok. Stopped here for dinner after flying in to town and after learning the burritos didn't come as I wished (rice, beans, salsa, etc) I opted for the taco combo and a horchata. The service was great and we didn't wait too long for our food to come out. We also got a fresh batch of chips which were tasty. My plate was fine, most of the flavor came from the salsa they have available on the side. B enjoyed his burrito and we both liked the horchata. I'd probably try out other spots before returning but there was quite the dinner rush after we sat down so they're doing something right! read more

Love their bean and cheese burritos. Red salsa on of the best among taco shops. Also the hash brown with egg and cheese tasty. Primarily go their for breakfast read more

Chicken tacos are the best in town! Whatever sauces they cook chicken in is da bomb!! Chicken flavor is amazing. Taco shell is perfection.

I've been eating here since 1986. My family eats here once every couple of weeks because it's convenient and decent food. I am totally missing the cravings I used to get for their three rolled tacos. Their carne asada was to die for, but things are just not the same. It has gone downhill since the new ownership. Please go back to the original recipes. Everything, including the carne asada is greasy. Everything is just not as fresh, and my tacos are literally dripping with oil. People will pay more for good food, so invest in yourselves! Buy the better ingredients and lay off the grease. See you again soon with hope of a better experience. read more

We love this place! It's our go-to spot to get delicious food. We usually order a bean and cheese burrito and the special quesadilla and it's so good every single time! We tried the crispy beef and chicken tacos tonight as well and they were really good. I would recommend this spot for yummy burritos! read more

Foods pretty good most of the time but the customer service sucks. I hate rude people.

The service was so attentive and concerned that we were pleased. The food was delicious. I will definitely go again.

Went to eat here and bought a bottled drink along with my food. Noticed it tasted bad so I checked the expiration date and it was VERY expired. When I told the cashier about it, he was rude and annoyed that I brought it to his attention. He didn't offer us a refund for selling us an expired soda, even though we had only taken a couple sips and it was basically full. He started talking bad about us to his coworker in Spanish making it seem like we are dramatic. Once he realized we understood spanish he looked embarrassed. Cashier doesn't understand that selling expired beverages is a health code violation and he was acting like its no big deal we had to insist on a refund of the drink. Be careful if you eat here because if they sell expired products in the front of the store, imagine what they've got behind closed doors. read more

Robertos Mexican Food - The expiration on the bottle - Mexican Near Me - Encinitas, California

Just saying, Los Angeles does not have Mexican food like San Diego's. Whenever I come down I immediately look for any restaurant ending in "bertos" and they never disappoint! I found Roberto's while I was out shopping for a party and this was right on the main road of El Camino Real! Plenty of parking, line to order was just right, everything cooked fresh and I could quickly eat there. I ordered a Chili Relleno burrito and I couldn't help it, I ordered a crunchy shredded beef taco also. Way more food than I needed but totally worth it! The huge differences with what Roberto's does right is the Cotija cheese blended with yellow cheese the amazing tortillas made the right way and not hiding the flavors in too much sauce or filler. The flavors were distinct and fresh in the red salsa was a great addition to every bite. I will definitely be back! #makesmewander read more

Robertos Mexican Food - Shredded Beef Breakfast Burrito. - Mexican Near Me - Encinitas, California

Roberto's always has very good food. The prices are just okay. Seems a burrito is now $12.00?. They offer burritos, tacos, tostadas and of course rolled tacos. The standout is always the shredded beef. If your in a high protein, low carb diet, I recommend the shredded beef with any tortilla. The food is always fresh, the service is always friendly, and you cannot beat the location. They offer a rolled taco plate (2023) that gives you a choice of guacamole or sour cream. The rolled tacos are excellent. The plate is under $7.00. I feel that it's a great value. read more

Horrible filth. It's one thing to be a busy restaurant with limited staff, this was a different filth, it's obvious they don't care about the condition of the sitting area. Cashier was rude, asked for napkins to wipe my table and got 1 napkin. Food was decent but honestly she ruined the whole experience. read more

Amazing California burrito!!!! Was cooked perfect and perfect size every bite had every ingredient and it was hot!!!!! Not warm but hot fresh and perfection!!!! Thank you! Please keep making them this perfect read more

Good service, cashier is very nice. Very good Mexican food! Clean restaurant as well!

This location was recently sold, the new owners kept the name but increased prices, quality is the same or worse for some things, and portions are the same or smaller. The interior is the same. None of the former staff work here but the new employees are fine. The food tasted good, just not what I have been accustomed to. I've been going to this location for over a decade and probably won't be back because I'm not a fan of the changes. If you've never had the old one, you probably won't be disappointed with the changes. read more

Always great. Good service, nice place to sit and enjoy a big bean and cheese burrito and enjoy the landscape painting on the wall.

I love Roberto's! Always clean and well run. And authentic Mexican! Long time customer read more

Robertos Mexican Food - Chicken taco combo- no rice - Mexican Near Me - Encinitas, California

Mexican food has gotten so expensive that rarely buy it anymore. Roberto's still has good food but $7 for a bean burrito seems high. I don't blame the businesses for the prices if they can continue to get the customers at some point people stop showing up. The blame falls on CA politics with increased labor costs and inflation which increases the material costs. read more

One morning we were wanting to get a good breakfast in before going to Legoland and decided on some breakfast burritos. They were big, filled with lots of meat, ham, bacon, eggs, potatoes, got some good salsa on the side. Cooked well, not burnt and just a great filling breakfast to get us on our way. read more

Beat California burrito and hot sauce! Best north county SD Mexican food. Service is always friendly.

Delicious TINY burrito. I'm vegetarian because I don't slaughter animals and wouldn't expect anyone else to do it for me, definitely traumatic. So I order rice and beans now. So... today, I ordered a *bean and cheese with no cow cheese ew. But I asked for extra rice, specifically extra rice and I also asked for cabbage because lettuce wilts. They charge me an extra 3 dollars for a *custom item charge* wth so for my rice, bean and cabbage burrito with a tip was 10 bucks. In what world is 10 dollars sustainable for a rice bean and cabbage burrito, like kmon hook up the rice guys. And then I get it, and it's mostly beans, hardly any rice. Thanks for the delicious tiny overpriced burrito, definitely not going back. I think they specialize in corpse muncher food.. read more

Great food, real Mexican chow!! Great service as well. Centrally located. Want that authentic food? Go there. Thank you for the drink. ‍

Encinitas El Camino: Tables were dirty, had to ask for one to be wiped clean. The Towel was not taken out of the bleach bucket but was damp and most likely filled with bacteria , against Health Dept regulations. All other tables were dirty but the employee didn't bother to clean any of them. Ordered the beef tostada bowl, bummer. The small portion of beef, not more than 3oz, had at least one piece which was mostly fat, irritating. The green chilies were mush... bottom line, the tostada bowl was not good. Why when paying with a card are are we prompted to leave a tip for $15 plus an hour paid fast food workers? If the tips are going to the owners to offset the increased wages I am good with that, otherwise we are paying more for food and tipping more due to increased menu items. This is happening with the majority of fast food restaurants so my critique of that applies across the board. read more
