★★★★★ 5.0 Soba Noodles · Feb 2026

I'm very picky with my food but this place did an amazing job. The beef and beans burrito were great and the beef was juicy unlike other restaurants beef

★★★★☆ 4.0 Linda Ridge Johnson · Apr 2025

This place is a hidden gem in El Cajon, CA. I've lived 1.5 blocks from this place for 2.5 years and never knew it was in the neighborhood until today. 😁 I ordered a child's meal just to try out the food. Those were the best rolled tacos that I've ever eaten! The rice, beans, salad, and agua frescas looked appetizing and tasted very fresh. This first visit was pleasant indeed. ✔️ The manager and staff treated me so well that I knew that I would return soon! 💯🔥🙂

★★★★★ 5.0 Rob Johnson · Mar 2017

Delicious, classic San Diego Mexican food. Slightly off the main boulevard so you have to look for it a bit. Great food and generous portions.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Shawna Patrick · Dec 2017

Usually pretty good food. Staff is very freindly. Hot sauces are good.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Brian · Oct 2024

How do you put jalapeños in pico and not make it known? I ordered carne asada burritos for myself and my kids and asked what they had in them never did they mention jalapeños or it was spicy. My kids don't like spicy at all and needless to say they didn't eat the burritos and now I will be dealing with stomach issues for the next day or 2 because I can't tolerate jalapeños
