    Don't go here..... You'll get hooked. I ate 5 fish tacos…read moreand a marlin taco. I wanted to order more, but I couldn't. I wanted to just wait in the shade until I got hungry again, then order another 5. Hot, fresh... LIGHTLY battered... The pickled red onion slaw topping just sets it all off in a very particular kind of way. My son and I ordered 8 fish and 1 marlin... I wanted to come back the next day and do it again. It was the kind of experience where you want to go as much as possible before it gets too popular and they have to raise their prices. Three bucks American for a fish taco that beats pretty much every other spot I've been to that's charging five bucks and some change. Doña taking orders was made me feel welcomed and appreciated. My Spanish is mas o menos at best, so it can be a little intimidating placing an order. She was patient with me and let me practice my español and even complemented my efforts. I will definitely be back soon.

    We came during brunch hours and it was empty, which was nice. I'm sure it gets busy during lunch…read more Got the aguachile mango, fish tacos, and spicy shrimp tacos. My favorite were the fish tacos and the shrimp. Everything was fresh and made to order. The spicy shrimp had a crisp taco shell, and was really spicy. I definitely want to try the garlic shrimp taco next time. I loved the freshness and acidity of the aguachile. Perfect for the summer weather. Definitely worth checking out. Great food and the owners are very kind.

    Amazing fish tacos! They have daily deals, and on Sunday it's one fish taco and a fish ceviche for…read more$13. I got two fish tacos but got to try the ceviche as well. The tacos are wonderfully battered without it being overwhelmingly breaded. The cabbages and tomatoes on top were very refreshing, but for a nice kick, they have a small salsa bar with grilled chili peppers available and those were delicious! They also offer free seafood consume, which taste great on the fish taco, as a tortilla chip dip, or just on its own to sip on (although a bit on the salty side). There was a canopy set up with too long tables to provide some shade while eating. They also have napkins and hand sanitizer available. Overall, a great spot for some fish tacos!

    We came out for Taco Tuesday today for their fish taco special. It was pretty busy so we waited…read moreabout 15 minutes for our fresh battered fish on corn tortilla tacos. We were given a complimentary cup of tomato seafood broth to enJoy while we were waiting. Tasty! Service was fine. We took the tacos to go and they were indeed fresh, hot, and lightly battered. The fish was very flaky and enjoyable to eat. Each taco had chopped onion, cilantro & cabbage on it as well as white sauce. The tacos are fairly large, and honestly two tacos were fine for me, so M. enjoyed four tacos and was happy about that. They have a selection of sauces that are labeled. They were out of the habanero, but the green jalapeño one was tasty with just a bit of heat. If you are in the mission valley area, this is a good taco Tuesday deal. This is a food truck, so there are limited amenities. They do have a couple of tables under a canopy where you can stand and eat if you wish, otherwise, you can take your food to go. Kiko's is also known for their delicious ceviches as well as other taco options, so give them a try. Prices are reasonable! Gracias!

This Hawaiian food truck was hands down one of the best meals I've had in a long time. The food was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection.

Everyone was so friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. You can really tell they take pride in what they do. If you're craving authentic Hawaiian food, this is the place to go. I can't recommend it enough and will definitely be coming back again and again.

My two sons and I drove down from Encinitas just to give it a try, and it was absolutely worth the trip. The wings--fire! The tenders--fire! The shrimp--fire! The fried catfish--fire! Even the rice and gravy were fire, and the collard greens were off the hook! The cantaloupe melon refresher was insane--it had fresh shreds of cantaloupe in it, never had anything like it. Everything was so good that when they opened their brick-and-mortar location, we ordered a bunch of trays for a birthday party. Definitely check out their Instagram too--they're always posting their amazing food and hilarious stories. We'll absolutely be back!

I am glad I did--everything was absolutely delicious. The banana pudding was incredible; I was literally licking the lid to get every last bite. The candied yams had great flavor, and both the chicken and fish were cooked perfectly--crispy on the outside, moist and tender in the middle. The chicken and fish were definitely the stars of the meal. The Wings, hands down best wings in San Diego, I'll fight anyone that says otherwise lol. I also added a cornbread, and it was so good it was gone in two bites. This place deserves to be much busier because the food is outstanding. Get the word out--this was probably the best bite I had in a while.

    Another wonderful Persian restaurant discovered! My husband and I were looking for a place to eat…read morebefore going to the AMC next door and I'm so happy we found this restaurant. At first glance, we knew we were in for a true authentic and great meal when we saw other Persians dining at the restaurant ;D Vibes: Namino shares a parking lot with other food establishments but on a Tuesday afternoon, we didn't have trouble finding a spot. The restaurant gives a mom and pop vibe, where they warmly welcomed us in. I loved that the lady gave us a bell to ring when we're ready to order. There were more than a handful of 4 person tables available inside. No outdoor seats. The guy who took our order and served our food was welcoming and our food came out within 10 minutes. Food: -Beef Koobideh Kabob ($15.95): skewer of suuuper flavorful beef served on a bed of saffron rice with a side salad and half a roasted tomato. I saw one of the reviews here that said to put sumac powder on the rice-- thank you for that! I asked for tzatziki sauce on the side and it paired well with the kabob. -Beef Kabob Sandwich ($11.95): my husband ordered this and he loved it as well. If we weren't in a hurry to catch a movie, I would've loved to try the baklava. Overall: A great authentic Persian restaurant located in La Jolla. You won't be disappointed!

    TLDR; A small, no nonsense cafe serving absolutely mouth watering Persian dishes. Quaint ambience…read moreand old school city service (you just gotta flag people down) but the food is highly recommended. Namino, located in the holiday court lot (next to the Whole Foods plaza) is a small space looking like an east coast diner. They have a small menu and don't mind if you help yourself to drinks and a seat. The owner literally just told me to shout out my order when I was ready. No nonsense, quick, and it worked well. No complaints there. Service 9/10 Fesenjoon: That day's special. This dish is phenomenal and a hefty portion. The stew itself was not shy at all about flavor; an appreciable sweetness and tart flavor coming from pomegranate, an earthy blend of spices (for sure can taste bag and cinnamon as well as toasted walnuts. I'm sure there's more) and the chicken is clearly well seasoned. The stew itself is not to thin or thick, resembling a texture slightly thicker than a Japanese style curry. The specials are served with a side salad and saffron rice. The salad is dressed with a yogurt based dressing. Light and refreshing. Nothing surprising. The saffron rice is lightly seasoned with saffron, mostly white rice. The big kicker here is tableside condiments include sumac, and that is a huge bonus. Pour a liberal amount in your rice and thank me later. Gotta love a Persian restaurant with sumac! Food 9/10. The tea served is a spiced black I believe. May be an acquired tasted for those used to English breakfast. I'll definitely be back. Namino is great for a quick lunch and the food is fantastic. Hopefully I'll be able to try more of the menu soon!

But I didn't realize that just about every dish was based on birria. But okay. I love a good, flavorful birria taco. I guess I just didn't order right. I grabbed the Mikes Meal Special, but I was really craving some nice crunchy, cheesy and Jalapeno-hot Nachos. So I thought I would try a half-order of Mike's Nachos. Man! They were horrible. The huge pile of shredded beef tasted okay, but the red gravy got all of the chips that it came into contact with really soggy and unpleasant to eat. Maybe it would have been better if I had eaten it in the restaurant, but it should not have degraded that quickly. And to claim to be Nachos? Why? What was Nacho about this messy, uninteresting dish? The only suggestion of cheese that I got was one stray pipe of yellow processed cheese that could have been mustard for all that I know. There were NO Jalapenos whatsoever. The guacamole was just one spoonful plopped down in the middle of the order. There was really nothing red hot about the food at all. So the sour cream just made it taste incredibly bland. My advice? Always go with as authentic to real Mexican food as you can find. If you really want "Gringo Sonora," I would heartily recommend Del Taco over this restaurant.
