I wanted a real local spot, and I'm so glad we ended up at Carnitas y Mariscos Las Morelianas. We started with the 5 tacos (carne asada and pork), and they were packed with flavor. I always judge a Mexican spot by the meat--it has to be well-seasoned with the right spices--and this place absolutely nailed it. Every bite was juicy, flavorful, and exactly what I was hoping for. The whole vibe just felt right too. The waitresses mostly spoke Spanish, the TVs were playing Spanish channels, and the place was full of locals--you can tell right away it's the real deal. We liked it so much we came back the next day for breakfast. The ceviche was super fresh, and the carne chilaquiles were huge--loaded with rice, guac, cheese, and tons of flavor. Definitely a hearty, satisfying meal. We loved this place and will definitely be coming back.

My permanent date, who has been to Jamaica and pronounced her jerk chicken absolutely authentic. I, who hasn't been to Jamaica, was delighted with the oxtails. As I was working with a plastic fork, there was a bit of using my fingers to pick the meat off the bones, which was completely worth it. She had to caution me to pause, as the quantity of rice and beans is more than any single person should eat in one sitting. Survey. Helpful hint: get a small if you don't want leftovers, but the large will make for a nice lunch the next day. Also, this place gets five stars despite not having sodas on tap. The joint is too small for that amenity, but they do have some Jamaican sodas in a fridge which looked delightful.

Quality is the same but dare I say even better than the chula vista location! We ordered the following: -fish tacos (must order) -shrimp quesdilla (must order) -aguachile rojo (must order) -quesabirria taco I love that they don't overcompensate with batter when it comes to their fish tacos. You can actually taste the fish and everything about it is SO flavorful! Their shrimp quesadilla was also a surprise banger! Incredibly tasty and can last as 4 meals between 2 people, the portion is HUGE! Not too salty at all but so addictive. Lastly, their aguachile is a must! I tried this at their chula vista location and it's still fire! And ofc they give you complimentary consome! This spot is a hidden gem for sure!

Driving down University Ave it's honestly hard to miss Mariscos El Prieto. You'll see the flags and…read morethe food truck right away, that's what caught my attention. I wasn't even planning on getting mariscos that day but it felt like a sign so I took it as a little treat. It's a food truck setup with folding tables and chairs and a pretty big parking lot since the plaza itself is kind of dead. Parking was easy and there was plenty of space. I walked up and they were doing construction on the tent right above where you order and it was really loud. I feel like that could've been done during closing because it disrupted the vibe. The area is already a little rough so it just made things feel a bit off. The lady working was super sweet. She took my order, you pay right after and they do accept tap to pay which I love because I don't carry cash. They take your name and call you when it's ready. I got mine to go, waited about 10 minutes, and everything came out pretty quick. They packaged everything really well too which I appreciated because aguachile can easily spill. For the tostada they gave two packs of saltines and three tostadas which felt like a good portion. They also had fresh salsas at the truck but I skipped them since my taco already came with sauce. I ordered a fish taco and an aguachile verde tostada. I went home excited to try everything but honestly it didn't really hit for me. The fish taco was a good size with a lot of cabbage and a white sauce, but the fish was a little too soft. I wish it had more crisp and overall the flavors just weren't memorable. It's about $3.70 so fair, just nothing standout. The aguachile verde was the weakest part. Some shrimp textures were off and a few had a strange aftertaste. I've had a lot of aguachile recently and this was probably the lowest quality. I will say they were generous with the avocado and the sauce itself had a nice spicy kick, it just didn't come together overall. There was also an earthy note from the seeds that was very prominent which I have never experienced in aguach For the price, I paid around $20 with tip for both which isn't bad for the portions. It satisfied the craving in the moment but not somewhere I'd go out of my way to come back to.

There was plenty of parking once we found it. It's a bright blue food truck serving up fresh Mexican seafood and tacos, with a shaded tent area for seating. Each table has salsas and condiments which I loved. The workers here are amazing. Super friendly and welcoming. We ordered two tacos, cabeza and adobada, along with the aguachile verde tostada. This surprisingly was enough for two people. While waiting, we grabbed some salsas. They keep them on ice so they stay fresh and cold which was such a nice touch. They told us we could bring the whole bottle to the table, but we just used small cups. My favorite was the orange creamy salsa. It had a slight chipotle flavor but was pretty mild and perfect with the chips. They also gave us complimentary soup while we waited which was a nice surprise. Both tacos were incredible. The tortillas were warm and held a generous amount of meat. The cabeza was super tender, flavorful, and nicely salted. The adobada was juicy with a smoky, slightly spicy flavor. At $3.50 each, they felt very worth it. The real standout was the aguachile verde tostada. It had raw shrimp in a bright, spicy green sauce with thin sliced red onions. Every bite was fresh, citrusy, and packed with flavor. By the end, the tostada soaked up all the sauce which made it messy in the best way. If you're into that slightly soggy tostada texture, it honestly adds to the experience. We couldn't stop thinking about this place the whole drive home. Definitely coming back!

The service was quick made to order and they give you consomé (broth) with your fish tacos. Recommend the fish, shrimp and gobernador tacos they were all good!

Highly recommend checking it out!

I called my order in ahead of time and was told it would be about an hour. When I arrived, I only ended up waiting another 5-7 minutes, and once my order was being prepared, the food came out within about 10-15 minutes. The staff was friendly and efficient. The service felt like what you'd expect from a traditional Jamaican restaurant: no frills, just straightforward and to the point. The location itself is small and has that classic Jamaican shack feel. The doors were open, letting in the breeze, and you could smell food cooking on the grill out back. The parking lot is on the smaller side, but it wasn't a major issue for a takeout order. While this isn't my top Jamaican spot in San Diego, I wouldn't rule it out completely. If I was craving Jamaican food and happened to be nearby, I'd consider stopping by again and trying something different from the menu.

I ran into them at 13 Point Brewery over in Lemon Grove, and I ordered two fish tacos made on the hot griddle for $4.75 each. The battered and fried fish tacos are $4.00 each as of May 10th when I visited. The tacos were quite good. I would recommend, if at all possible, that they double up on the corn tortillas on these particular tacos so the ingredients hold up better inside the taco. On a the very good side, the tacos were delicious. The fish was very well prepared. It was succulent and very well seasoned, as a result tasty and good eating. I loved that the tacos also came with chopped mango and avocado. They were a great addition. All the ingredients were fresh and tasty. I particularly liked the chipotle mayo.
