    Carne Asada Burritos
    Mai H.

    I ordered 2 carne asada burritos for takeout from here. The flavor was actually really good, but the burritos were SO SMALL... honestly barely the size of hands! For $12+some change each, I was expecting something more filling. I do appreciate their sauce bar though. The jalapeños had a nice kick and the onions were flavorful and quite good. They also have a good variety of sauce options to select from. But their sauce cups are also small af! The employee who handed me my takeout was friendly and quick. Overall, tasty but not worth the price for the portion size. Inflation must've hit their shop hard - those portions are downsized!! Would've been 5 stars if they weren't so stingy with the portions.

    Surf & Cali Burrito with Drink
    Zack W.

    Not bad, not amazing. Fairly average. Got the surf and turf California burrito. Fries were soggy. Shrimp was cooked nicely, asada didn't have that much flavor. It's not the biggest burrito but it came with a drink for $15. Inside was clean, food came out quick. I'd probably try another spot before going back.

    Carnitas Quesadilla

    Burritos Santana is quickly becoming a favorite of ours. The first time we visited OMG, I dunno if it was just pure exhaustion or what, but this was the best Cali (carnitas) burrito I've had in long while! Tired and frozen after working a full day on the weekend (till like 10pm!). I wasn't planning on working super late without any dinner, so I was in desperate need of fuel... something filling and satisfying. Came here because it was close to home and still open. There were a few other customers that came about the same time as me, while I was trying to decide what I wanted. They said it was all good! Must've been regulars. They weren't wrong and absolutely hit the spot! Between the hubs and I we consistently order our favs. Every once and awhile we change it up, but we always come back to these! Can't go wrong! Mine: California Carnitas burritos, no pico, add guacamole - juicy, flavorful, and it's huge! His: Beef taco (hard shell) and two cheese enchiladas combo. He loves that crunchy taco and the enchiladas are just comfort. Other things we've tried... - Fajitas burrito: Fairly wet burrito, be prepared for it to fall apart, but delicious! - Carnitas quesadilla: huge and filling. - Carnitas taco (hard shell) - by special request, not on menu, obviously we like the carnitas here! - Achiotea Chicken Taco (hard shell): This was surprisingly delicious. The chicken was very juicy and flavorful. - Carne asada fries (half order): This completely filled the box. Don't know what to expect if it was a full order! This was pretty good and very filling. On our last visit I wanted to try a hard shell taco with carnitas. They typically make hard shell tacos with beef or chicken, even mashed potatoes, but not with carnitas. Lucky for me the owner Daniel overhead me asking and told the cashier they can make it for me. Great, thanks!!! So many options to try on the menu. They have daily specials and Happy hour daily from 2-4 pm where you can get any burrito and a small drink for $10! Deal! My next must try is the hash brown burrito! There is one warning, this parking lot is always crazy packed because of McGregor's. Finding a spot sometimes can be tricky and you could be circling the lot a few times. There are some tables inside and a bench outside. Closes at 2 am if you're a late night eater. Just a note, there is not a drive through. Give them a try, you will not regret it! 2025: 13

    Been here once during COVID and it was terrible so we never came back. Decided to give it another chance and I was shocked that we liked it. Either it was new management or new chef, but the burritos were comparable to other places. We got California burrito ($11.35) and carne asada burrito ($11.75). It wasn't the largest but it was flavorful. Fresh guacamole in the carne asada. The meat was a bit tough hit what do you expect for the price? My fries were a bit soggy so I would ask for well done next time to get some extra crisp. We were so hungry that I didn't take any photos of the food. This place has low prices and a lot to offer. Very big menu and the photos along the walls. They have daily 2pm-4pm $10 any burrito special with a small drink. What a steal! For sure we'll be back to try other items.

    Food was greasy and bland Ordered via door dash Portions are large, but food is awful Images are also misleading Charged for carrots and jalapenos which were bad as well

    Grilled chicken writing with a carne asada burrito in the end
    Kayla P.

    This taco shop has no quality control for their burritos or their salsa. This was suppose to be a chicken burrito and it's clearly meat. We cannot eat carne asada so hence we ordered a chicken burrito. I don't know how you can write grilled chicken and clearly roll up and carne asada burrito. The salsa bar had reminisce of salsa but mainly crusty remaining liquid. No salsa was offered besides that germ infested salsa bar which again was lacking salsa in general. Really wish we would have chosen a better spot. Every-time we go here it's pure disappointment. My dad lives close so it's convenient but next time we will just go to other side by mission gorge because their taco shop actually has quality in their food and care about the customer. Please do yourself a favor and do not go here.

I picked a place off Google but when we landed there we were not comfortable stopping to park, so we looked again and decided to check out La Puerta not realizing it was in the Gaslight District. I am not a fan of the Gaslight District, which is why I am so mad!! I'm going to HAVE to go back to the Gaslight District!! The food was AMAZING!! I HIGHLY recommend the Potato Flautitas. It's the kind of dish I'm going to dream about, I'm salivating now just thinking about them. I also did the Pick 3 Street Tacos (and actually ordered a 4th). The Ranchero Shrimp and Grilled Veggie were top notch. The Conchinita was recommended by our waiter, and it was interesting, tasty but different. It could have used a little more pickled onion. The only one I would not recommend (shockingly, I thought it would be the easy pass) was the carne asada. It was too greasy. My husband ordered a carne asada quesadilla and said the same, it was too wet and soaked through the tortilla. But there were no many other delightful options, I would say just don't go traditional. But honestly my favorite thing on the plate was the side dish rajas con crema, seriously, that alone is going to drag me down to the Gaslight District. I'm even considering going to a Padres game just for the excuse. I'm salivating again! As for our waiter, Colin, he was fantastic. Very informative, made great suggestions and seemed genuinely pleased by our satisfaction. He was smiling the whole time, friendly and stayed very present. I highly recommend you get yourself through the door at La Puerta and sit down for a meal ASAP. (We ate the food so fast I forgot to take pictures.)

Tacos didn't come with consumé but they were juicy enough without it. Good flavor but tortillas did start to fall apart. Margaritas for $5 are a good deal and tasted fresh. Ambiance is upscale Mexican and I think it hits, at least for happy hour! Guac and salsa prices were too high for my liking ($13 and $10, respectively) especially as a happy hour item, but to each their own. Overall 4.5 stars rounded up to 5 with a $5 marg as the kicker to round up vs down (for guac and salsa prices).

    This is my first time dining inside this California Burrito Restaurant…read more I was driving around in this area and I saw this California Burrito Restaurant and I wanted to give this place a try. I enjoy eating authentic Mexican cuisine. I parked my car in their parking lot then I walked inside their front door. I talked to the owner Caesar and asked him How long has he been in business at this Starling Drive location in San Diego, CA? Caesar said he's been operating his California Burrito Restaurant business for 20 years now. Caesar also said to me that he works with his wife and grown children at his Mexican restaurant every day. My order was placed by Caesar today for my lunch time meal at 12:30 PM. I ordered one Beans and Cheese Burrito. The price is $7.50. Then I had to pay a tip of 20 percent that came up to $1.25. The tax was $1.50. My total purchase today was $9.25. I had to wait at least 30 minutes later until my order number 109 was called to the front counter today. There was non stop walk in customers coming into this California Burrito Restaurant at the lunch hour between 12:30 AM to 2:30 PM today. Their majority of their customers were of Mexican descent and I saw only 3 Black People placing their orders with Caesar today. I was the only Asian person ordering from this California Burrito Restaurant this afternoon. I also noticed 2 Nurses picking up their orders today who work for Sharp Memorial Hospital today. This man and woman nurse were of Caucasian descent. It's interesting for me to get to know the population of people who are living nearby this Starling Drive location. Caesar called my order number 109 today. Then I was served a really HUGE Beans and Cheese Burrito. I also drank cold ice water today. It was a beautiful day today because the weather conditions were very cool and cloudy. I sat down at this window seat so I could see the outside. The Beans and Cheese Burrito was very tasty the beans were refried and thete was a very generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese. The Tortilla was heated up and slightly toasted. This Beans and Cheese Burrito was a HUGE Size. I wasn't sure that I had an appetite to finish eating this Beans and Cheese Burrito but the flavor was amazing! I kept taking small bites on this Beans and Cheese Burrito for my lunch time meal this afternoon. I also received excellent customer service from Caesar and the rest of his family I saw was working very hard in the back kitchen area preparing and making their very popular Carne Asada Burritos. I also saw Caesar and an older lady sweeping up the floor and also mopping up the floor inside their front entrance to their California Burrito Restaurant Caesar told me to come in again soon to try their Steak Carne Asada Burrito. This item is the most popular food in their California Burrito Menu. I told Cesar the owner 3 I will dine inside his restaurant again soon. I love Carne Asada Burritos.
