Nice place for churro sundae to share, pretty big size. Fast service. My daughter and I shared the churro sundae which also had plantains under all that chocolate fudge sauce and nuts. Will definitely get this again when we visit again. read more

Churros el Tigre - Food Stands Near Me - San Diego, California

Churros El Tigre is a catering favorite for many throughout San Diego. Their menu consist of delicious and freshly made churros, funnel cakes, fried bananas, raspados, aguas frescas, chamangos, and mangoneadas (that's the mango smoothie with chunks of mango and chamoy). So delish! This vendor is located at Las Americas Premium Outlets directly across the food court. Most days there's a bustling line of people waiting to order. However, service is typically made quick and easy by the efficiency of the staff. Staff are friendly and the vibe is lively! Today, we ordered the classic mini churros with lechera! Nothing beats that savory dough flavor, crispy on the outside, soft and airy on the inside, with an exaggerated amount of cinnamon-sugar coating! My daughter ordered her usual- the mangoneada! Need I say more! And my wife and son ordered a couple of delicious aguas frescas de limon and mango! Definitely come check these guys out! You won't leave disappointed! read more

We just used Churros El Tigre for my daughter's 18th birthday / Graduation party and we could not say enough about how awesome these guys are!!! Thank you so much for this incredible experience. We had about 200 guests and our service was for 2 hours of unlimited, freshly made churros. We had issues with our regular food vendor, so we encouraged our guests to have dessert first. And this team was ready to serve. I was also surprised that they included ice cream with our churros. That was unexpected but very much appreciated. Our guests RAVED about the churros and it was easily a highlight of our party. Our church has used this same vendor MANY times, and they did not disappoint us at all. Not just saying this...but these are some of the BEST churros I have ever had. read more

The supreme churros sundae is delicious (5/5)! The service was quick. This business is located in a plaza at the Las Americas Premium Outlets so the ambience is upbeat. Music is playing in the background and there are areas to sit at nearby stores or by a centrally located fountain. The menu also offers mangoneada, chamango and raspados. read more

If you are looking to have fresh churros with amazing toppings at your event, this is the place to go. Churros were legit made at our location, stand mixer and butter and all! They came out so quickly and fresh too! Amazing crunch and topped with the meltiest semi sweet hot chocolate sauce. There was also ice cream and assortment of toppings like dulce de leche, cherry, bavarian cream etc. read more

Churros el Tigre - Great for outdoor events - Food Stands Near Me - San Diego, California

Located in Las Americas outlet down south near the border. This place is worth the drive for yummy fresh churros! They also have beignets and I think funnel cakes. Also have fresh fruit drinks, smoothies, and other delicious drinks. But the churros are the best! They also come with chocolate dip. Will be back for more! read more

My guy and I thought these churros had such an amazing flavor! It's understandable why some people say these churros are some of the best this side of the border. Unfortunately, our churros were not fresh and you could easily tell as much. We both agreed this place would most likely be 5/5 stars if the churros had been fresh. read more

Can I give an 11/10?! We hired El Tigre for our wedding for desserts , and do say they were a hit is an understatement. Everyone L O V E D them. Like literally I think everyone pretty much left the dance floor to get in line for these churros and ice cream station lol. Was so easy to eat, tasted AMAZING , and because they make it onsite, they are SO FRESH. Even though they are fresh, when me or my now husband walked up, they made sure to make us the freshest of freshest batch - they are so sweet. Super tasty, staff is SO sweet and attentive, and prep wise are responsive and straightforward. Shoutout to Louie for helping me prep and coordinate everything on the back end and making it easy peasy! BIG Churros El Tigre fan - let's do it all again! read more

I'm not exaggerating when I say these are the BEST Hot and freshly made, with a perfect cinnamon sugar coat, what more can you ask for in a churro? Located in a booth at the Las Americas Premium Outlet, Churros El Tigre makes these fresh along with other sweet treats like fried bananas, raspados, and more! Obviously by their name, the churros are the star of the show! It's a perfect snack to get while you're there for some holiday shopping. While they're good on their own, sometimes we'll also get the chocolate or cajeta to dip in if we're feeling a little indulgent lol They do have another location, but if I'm gonna be honest, I think they're noticeably better at this location! read more

At first glance you think "this is just a churro" right? But this is the churro that ruins all other churros for you. I would drive 2 hours just to get churros from this little stand!! Freshly fried (that doesn't feel greasy) and generously coated in cinnamon sugar - it's so simple, yet they perfected it. The long line goes by very quick, and once you've had your first bite, you'll be tempted to line up again. Tip: Get the chocolate dipping sauce for a luxurious churro experience. They also have another location in Plaza Bonita mall in National City (you're welcome!) read more

Churros El Tigre was having a stand at my work and I really enjoyed them! They make their churros fresh to order so they were nice and warm! The churros also weren't too dense which I really enjoyed! They were nice and light. I really enjoyed the self serve toppings concept and I'm glad they served it with ice cream! The workers were also super nice and friendly! It was nice to see them working hard on their jobs! I didn't get their pricing for catering but I do know they will be on my lists for future events! I think they may have a location elsewhere, not too sure, but I highly reccomend them for some yummy churros! read more

We hired Churros El Tigre for wedding desserts at our Botanica wedding on 11/13/25. They were a big hit - everyone loved the mini churros and the ice cream. They even made a heart-shaped churro/ice cream plate for us (bride and groom). Their pricing was more than fair and they stood in the rain for 1.5 hours - I can't thank them enough. You guys were awesome. read more

Extremely unprofessional owner. I messaged them for an event from a month before through text and their instagram and received a one kind response after 2 weeks to fill out their form which I had already done. Still no call or text or message back. I tried calling after 3 phone messages still because I was invested at this point and then I was told he can't take a last minute request or to go to TJ because I offered him a generous offer when I had less guests than his minimum and needed him for half the time since I had to work within his time limits and not my party time. This guy obviously doesn't want any business and looking at his reviews I can't understand why unless he wants to quit. So rude; so unprofessional, complete waste of time. Save yourself the headache! ***Update: To be clear, this exactly proves my point who the bully and unprofessional person is. I messaged him over a month ago and he answers week of and wants to come for half the time and tells me this is my set fee whether I serve 3 people or 65 for 15 minutes or 2 hours?!? What kind of business is this??. You say you can't work past 11 so you'll come 10-11 but want to charge me a 2 hour minimum for an hour's service and for almost double my guest size. No thank you!!! Also go check his 1 star reviews on how many times he has been a no show to private events!! So buyer beware it was meant to be not to have booked him so he didn't just not show up last minute!! read more

This place is awesome! As a matter fact, the whole food court is pretty awesome. I already left a review for the Ramen place just earlier today. But on the way out of the theater, we decided to have a little snack and we found a churro sundae. With cinnamon Banana bananas for Chiro sticks, short ones because it's a small package and ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and caramel syrup. It was only seven dollars and was delicious. So delicious. I had to go back to tip them because it's cash only and I gave them five bucks because I didn't feel like they charged enough. But don't tell them I said that I don't want the price to go up. Pretty freaking awesome food court and pretty freaking awesome churro Sunday. read more

I have been here many times and the churros are good, the last 2 times I have received them cold. You can always tell when a company is going downhill! read more

The stand is located just outside the food court in the outlet mall. The churros are cooked to order so be patient. Premade churros are not so good. You don't know when or how they were made. I think our churros could have used a little more cooking. They were fresh and soft but maybe a little too soft. The chocolate sauce on the side was fine. These were probably not my favorite churros ever, likely because they were a bit undercooked, but I always appreciate freshly-cooked food. read more

I was passing by & saw this dessert kiosk. The staff was very friendly & attentive. I got myself & a friend some raspados. They were very good & the staff actually checked if we wanted more syrup but honeslty it was perfect. I would definitely recommend this establishment. read more

I like a good churro and these were very good churros. Not only was the churro warm, fluffy, crunchy, and tasty and they had just made them right in front of us. They have a variety of add-ons like ice cream. Wow - what a good combo with ice cream and churros. They pair well together. But the fun didn't stop there - they had several toppings to choose from as well. Carmel, Chocolate truffles, Strawberry, Bavarian Cream, Dulce De Lece and even more. How delectable can it get. Warm delicious cinnamon covered churros, with ice cream, and a wide variety of toppings. I am still thinking about it a week later. Yum Yum. read more

These guys are fantastic!!! They keep it simple and have an amazing product and service. The churros are absolutely delicious, and they have ice cream and a bunch of sides/dips that the guests loved. The guests were raving about the churros, most went back for seconds, and they still had a lot of leftovers to leave us with (including ice cream that was too big for the freezer). We were so happy, and people are still talking about it. We had Big Boyz tacos cater the tacos and had the opposite experience - absolutely horrible, they forgot the two most important foods, and the owners were very unprofessional and annoying. Churros el Tigre was set to start an hour after the tacos started, and yet they both came to set up at the same time. Everything with the churros was exactly as planned and they even had a better place picked out than I did so the generator would not interfere with the party. Thanks, guys! I'm so glad to know that they have a spot in the Bonita Mall next to Panda Express now, too. read more

Hired them for my daughter's Quince per her request. So glad we went with something different than the usual desserts. The churros were honestly the best I've ever had, the dipping sauces were tasty and, best of all, they also serve it with ice cream. They were a little more expensive than another churro stand we looked into but the ice cream made the difference. Many guests raved about the churros weeks later. read more

My wife and I hired Churros El Tigre for our wedding as a late night snack/dessert and we could not have been happier! They were easy to contact for a quote and then to ultimately lock a date down. We had over 100 guests at our wedding and people were still able to quickly get their churros throughout the night. Their churros and ice cream were so tasty, and our guests are still talking about how much they loved it. We would absolutely recommend Churros El Tigre for a get-together of any size or type. read more

Was around the area exploring San Diego and saw this churro spot. Decided to take a chance on it and low and behold these were some of the best churros I've had. These were made fresh (unlike other places, some places churros can be sitting for several hours). The lady making them was sweet and very pleasurable. These churros are topped with whip cream, a bit of chocolate, nuts and 2 maraschino cherries, the leche and caramelo was absolutely delicious. Not too sweet but just right. Definitely will be back soon! read more

If you're FOMO-ing on Disneyland churros, go here. Perfectly crispy on the outside, pillow-y soft on the inside. Cinnamon-to-sugar ratio is right-on. 20 pieces of mini churros and chocolate dip for $7.50 (could share with someone, or dig-in solo if you truly believe in yourself). It's located in a pretty legit outlet (Las Americas Premium Outlets, right on the border), but the highlight of my outlet visits here is always going to this humble-looking churro stand haha. Stand is right outside of the outlet food court. read more

We catered Churros El Tigre for our wedding this past March and it was a hit! All our guest (kids and adults) loved the churros! The churros came with 5 different toppings and vanilla ice cream. Everything was delicious! Everyone told us they went had multiple servings. Louie was easy to work with and communicated with me throughout the process. I contacted him over the phone and all our correspondence was done via email. There wasn't a formal contract for our event. We provided a set up time and his team came on time. Overall, we couldn't have been happier with his services. read more

Is it churros with ice cream? Or ice cream with churros? You tell us! Either way this is a sweet combo and a perfect desert on a hot sunny day. It's a big enough portion to share with a friend! This place doesn't always have a line out in front but when they do, it doesn't take too long to get your food. They definitely are on top of their game. And when your order comes out, it's always hot, meaning it's fresh. read more

Churros el Tigre - Churro Sundae - Food Stands Near Me - San Diego, California

Churros el Tigre is a very good reason to come to this outlet. It's something that's going to be good even if you don't find any "steals" at this outlet mall. I think it cost about $5 bucks for 20 mini-churros which was perfect for five people. They also include some really dark/dense caramel. The taste was very sweet and it was crunchy. With the exception of the churros at Legoland, yes Legoland makes churros fresh too, this was the next best I've had. We also ordered the fried bananas with sweet condensed milk. It too was decadent and tasty. - Spanish speaking workers. Not necessarily an issue but ordering a churro didn't need to be this confusing. Lady asked a bunch of follow-up questions which I guess was dark caramel and condensed milk. Tip - if you peek in the side window you can watch them frying up the churros. read more

BEWARE! We always get churros when at Las Americas but today I stood in a long line & watched the worker repeatedly handle money & then handle food. At one point he put a clean glove on his right hand & ten reached down. & grabbed churros with his left hand that was still wearing the gloves he handled the money with. I walked away without ordering. read more

Churros: Golden, with a slight crunch and airey yet chewy inside. Much perfection. The chocolate sauce tasted good with it. The caramel sauce was thicker like peanut butter, but tasted equally good. Fried Banana in condensed milk: simple and perfect. Tasted amazing. read more

Extremely Rude and impatient. If they don't like their job, get another one. The servers were mocking customers and acting impatient with ZERO customer service. We used to like coming here... but I'm telling all my friends to avoid this place. Handle your business better, there are a lot of other places that sell this product. Someone needs to reach out to the owner to let them know. read more
