    We usually skip Blaine when we cross the border but pregnancy cravings called for tacos and burritos as close to the ones we could get in San Diego CA. After browsing Yelp, I found out that Bordertown Mexican Grill comes highly recommended! That explains the crowds whenever we drive by this area. I ordered three tacos and a breakfast burrito for my hubby. My tacos definitely hit the spot! Tasty, well seasoned and good portion size. Pregnancy cravings satisfied! Hubby ate his burrito a few hours later and he said it was amazing! We actually went back again after a few days to satiate our cravings yet again. Don't miss this when crossing the border! So good!

    If you're craving the best queso birria tacos, look no further! Every taco is loaded with perfectly seasoned, tender meat and gooey, flavorful cheese. Each bite is juicy, rich, and absolutely delicious. The kind of meal you can't stop thinking about. I also tried their tamale and it was hands down the best I've ever had: moist, flavorful, and packed with filling. The prices are super reasonable for the quality and portions you get. If you love good eats and great value, this spot is a must-try!

    Excellent authentic tacos, the food is fresh and my fish tacos were so juicy and tender Be prepared to wait during peak hours though

    Beef Birria

    I love Mexican food from Mexico and I love Mexican from not Mexico. Tried Beef Birria to go, as I wanted to extend the better Mexican food in the US. First time at Bordertown Mexican Grill, they have glowing reviews both on google and yelp. TBH, it's more like a generous 3.5 out of 5 for me. The protein is generous for a $20 USD to go entree. However the beans were mush and the rice was in in warm mode for a long time. I appreciate the red/green sauce that was offered, however it was "not enough" considering the sauces weren't potent enough to be effective. The lady cashier was polite, however getting wet cash back and wet handle on the plastic bag was surprising. 2/2 at handover her hands were cold and wet. TIP: There is no indoor seating. There are a few tables that is shared with Starbucks. Best for take-away when it's rainy.

    I have always wanted to try the food here after reading the glowing reviews but the timing was never right either before or after crossing the border. It is next to the Starbucks after the crossing. Just a small place to order at the window. Tables are set outside the shop. I was not very hungry so I had two tacos to try. The supreme taco has guacamole and mango salsa topping. I had the beef and it was really tasty. I also had the regular fish taco which has plenty of shredded lettuce. The fish was fried. It was pretty good too. I'll really need to make it a point to come here when I'm hungry so that I can have the enchilada. They take card payment which is awesome. Street parking is available.

    Tasty Mexican place along the historic stretch of Blaine. Parking is available all over around here. The venue is a tiny historic house with a large outside patio. The tables do have large umbrellas, but they are useless in the afternoon as the patio faces W. I had the sun in my face the entire time. Staff are friendly and courteous. Tacos are a bit pricy, but this is a tourist district after all. They make the tacos fresh to order, so it does take some time. There is an option for green (mild) and red (hot) sauce. The ingredients are fresh and tasty. I had some pig, chicken, and fish. Everything was nice and fluffy. Wouldn't mind coming back at some point. Recommended.

    Pork Carnitas Taco!!!  Can only go so long without my "fix"!

    Yes... always delicious! Prefer "take-out" but outside dining area is enticing! Generous portions are appreciated, never fails to meet expectations.
