    Bean & Cheese Burrito
    Samuel A.

    Big & Delicious Burrito! I ordered a Bean & Cheese Burrito and to my surprise it was AMAZING! They use a big 16 inch flour tortilla and the burrito comes out big. I also ordered a side of potato fry and the basket was full. The prices are very reasonable and I definitely had a good dinner at a great value!

    Gobernador taco and 3 rolled fish tacos.

    I really really want to like this place. Their menu looks very appetizing . A large selection of items. It looks like they have a regular menu and a Marisco's menu. Although I think they are not going to serve seafood anymore. Unless I misunderstood the guy (he didn't really speak English that well). Their salsa bar is great. Self serve and a good selection. Hot carrots and pico di gallo is always a plus. They do offer free chips, but all three times I've been here. They were stale! I ordered their fish rolled tacos and Gobernado taco. Both were delicious. Crispy tortillas and flavorful fish and shrimp. The beef rolled tacos were standard. They do fill the rolled tacos with a good amount of beef. I feel like hole in the wall places will serve rolled tacos in the styrofoam tray with aluminum foil on top rather than a clam shell styrofoam container. They serve it on the tray. Overall, your average taco shop.

    Sign of establishment

    I saw a sign at lunchtime, D'Soto's Taco Shop, and only naturally, I had to check it out. I wasn't hungry enough for a burrito, so I went for a shredded beef taco and a canned Diet Coke. Taco was very good, I even licked up the taco juice from the parchment paper. The condiment bar is epic! This alone brought it to 5 stars for me... Pickled raw onions with fresh cut jalapeño, fresh cut cucumbers, fresh cut radishes, then the different sauces...my goodness I was the happy camper..... My next visit will be to try a Carne Asada burrito. Stand by for my review on it soon... Come here and eat if in the area....

    I should have made the drive to Point Loma. Looking to yelp for lunch and close to my hotel, I rolled into this place. I should have kept rolling and head to Aldaberto's (I know you read that review). I don't like negative reviews so I'm going to find a positive spin on this.........well it's across the street from my hotel. First the meat. You would think it would be piping hot since I only drove right across the street?!?!? It was lukewarm at the best. And as for the flavor of the meat it was ok. So maybe the guacamole and salsa cooled it off but there wasn't much on there. And I wish there was more cilantro but again there wasn't much there. And I forgot to ask for any sauce but you would think they would offer or even put a couple of cups in the bag. Overall one star. It was just below average. Now excuse me, I'm planning my next meal. And it's not going to be across the street. M

    When I'm in the Poway area for work and I crave Mexican food, this is my go to spot. They have an amazing Taco Tuesday. You have four choices of meat from Carne Asada, Adobada, Chicken and Carnitas. Today I did 4 adobada tacos it comes with guacamole, cilantro and onion on top. They have a self serve salsa bar if you want some lemon and hot sauce for your food. Beside Taco Tuesday I come here for other great choices, I love their beef crunchy tacos, add sour cream, rice and bean plate. They have so much to offer. Come check it out if you are in the area.

    Bunch of guacamole
    Shay R.

    Rude service! And the food is bland with no flavor! A bunch of guacamole on my taco when I didn't ask for any! I'm allergic and now a waste of my food! At least have good food if your employees are rude! Won't return back

    California Burrito

    Best California Burrito Ive had in a long time. Clean Inside, fast and friendly, chips and salsa bar outside seating.Tacos were great too. It makes me hungry writing this review. San Diego native so, its hard to pic a favorite Cali burrito - this place is now on the list.

We don't normally sit at the bar but the restaurant was packed (as expected for a good place on a Friday night) so we sat at the bar. For me personally, I don't usually interact with the staff unless it's ordering our food but we had the pleasure of meeting Bella, she was very friendly and fit right into our conversation. Although it was extremely busy her and the bartender seemed to move quick paced and anytime our salsa or drinks were empty bella refilled them without asking which was awesome! You can tell they enjoy working here because of how much fun they were having, it's nice to see staff enjoy a job rather than loathe. Again it was super busy but the bartender made drinks quickly and Bella kept checking in on us to see if we needed anything which is unusual because when a place gets busy and more people come in sometimes staff doesn't check in as frequently or I feel a little bit neglected but this place was fantastic!!! Everything tasted amazing, I would definitely recommend the Fajitas and the chips were perfect! We all got T&T Cadillac Margaritas and unlike other places you can actually pour the grenadine on your drink yourself which I prefer! All and all everyone was incredibly kind and it was a very fun environment!! Definitely going to be coming back soon!!! Thanks guys!

The food is what makes this place special. Everything is prepared with quality authentic flavors. Family friendly and a large menu. On this day , we were 4 adults and 1 toddler. Hannah was our server and took care of us well. We had the wet Chile verde burrito, Baja fish tacos, Chile relleno and beef taco combo , and the steak and mole enchilada. We all shared bites with each other, and everyone was happy with their choices. The margaritas can be strong, and they're delicious. This place ranks up with San Diego's best places. (Mi Guadalajara in old town , Fidel's in Del Mar, casa de bandini in Carlsbad). This restaurant makes me happy to call San Diego home!

You can taste every ingredient and there is obvious thought put into their recipes. The salsa bar is on point as well, and when they say spicy, they mean it. Whole 'lotta flavor no matter which salsa you choose. I had one issue though, to the point that I'm not sure I'll come back. When I received my order, I noticed that the bag felt lighter than usual. I didn't think much of it until I got to the car, but when I went to take a quick bite before heading home, I couldn't help but notice how small the burrito was. I know for a fact that this wasn't the case a couple years back when I was coming here regularly. I'm all too familiar with shrinkflation, and I get it, doing business isn't cheap, but I would have gladly paid a couple of extra dollars more to get a big burrito similar to the size of what you get from a 'Bertos shop, or really any SD taco/burrito joint for that matter. Place was clean, service was friendly, but I didn't leave very satisfied... $13 for a burrito this size just didn't make sense to me, no matter how good it tastes, but ~$18 for a bigger burrito with the same ingredients and quality, I would stop by on the regular. If you don't have a big appetite like me, none of this even matters, but if you do, don't come too hungry...

The fish taco was satisfying and delicious. Paired with the fish and chips, it was a great and affordable lunch. The fish was crisp and flaky and they provided a mountain of fries to go with it. They inciuded all the fixings to go with the fish. Plenty of tartar and cocktail sauce and limes. I was impressed with this place The service was outstanding as well. Friendly and efficient.

And the staff will take your order. I got... 2 fish tacos (surprise) and some chips and a Diet Coke ... under 7 bucks! If you're traveling with a service dog, they have mostly high tops inside, so, take a seat outside. Which is also quite lovely. They have a fun vibe inside. About 6 high tops and 2 lower 4 top tables. Outside they have three picnic tables WITH umbrella!! Brisas was my server and she was very nice! Let's talk chips. They are served warm and have a good amount of salt. The salsa are green and red and are pretty standard heat and quality you'd expect of a San Diego taco shop. Fish tacos, were as expected. Small corn tortillas, shredded cabbage, fried fish, onion, tomato, cilantro and fresh lime. You cannot beat this price for fish tacos! And they are something I would eat again! As I rank fish tacos based on taste, this is the average expectation of a taco, making it a 3. On par with the Villa on Grand (3) or Rubios (at a fraction of the price) . It is not as memorable as Taco Craft. For the price and quality combined 4.5! I also had opportunity to try the chicken and cheese quesadilla. That was yummy!
