WOW! Really? A 4 star rating on Yelp? That's a load of crap and I'm sorry I didn't read Jeff F.'s review before we plunked down down about $30 for the crappiest Mexican food I've had in a long time.
We were in town from San Diego for a wedding and looked up our taco shop possibilities on Yelp and found this. Sadly, I didn't take my own advice and see further than just the 4 stars...the topper is that the customer service is as it is many times in a Mexican restaurant, shitty. The counter girl acted like we were doing her a favor and even when my mom and I spoke to her in Spanish, she didn't say a word. Perhaps she was having a bad day or didn't give a shit but when she called you to the window to pick up your food, she waved you over quite dismissively and then walked away. WTF? The joint is as small as a cracker box at a Greyhound station and just as clean...yikes!
I'm a Mexican and I'm used to some highly seasoned, tasty grub of all kinds here in SD and this place wouldn't last a week in any part of our city, especially in the hood where they serve REAL street tacos.
We ordered:
2 plates @ $11.99 each with a variety of 9 street tacos, the only decent ones were the tacos de cabeza and everyone wanted one, so I only scored one. Shit. The rest of them, adobado, al pastor and carne asada tasted like dog food. The adobado meat had a weird, nutmeggy taste...gross. No salt, no life, no zest, and the damn street tortillas were cold. If you sold street tacos like this in TJ, you'd get your ass kicked in a second.
1 Carne Asada burrito: full of beans, rice and tiny, over chopped up chunks of something that must have once been a decent piece of carne asada. Lame ass and looked like dog food.
Beans and rice on the side: Out of any can would've been better than this crap.
Drinks: My husband wanted a Pepsi was told there was none, only Coke. Yeah you dumb lady, only Coke from the dispenser but there was Pepsi in cans and we were looking right at them.
Salsa bar: How is it possible to screw up a salsa bar? What a bummer.Save your money and time and go somewhere else, because even if the food is dull and flavorless like this food, you might get better CS.
