We have been here a few times and the food was decent; carne asada fries and a bean and cheese burrito. This time we ordered carne asada fries, bean/cheese burrito and a cheese and guacamole quesadillas. The fries were cold and old and there was no guacamole on the quesadillas even though we paid for it. We even repeated the order at the window. There was no one in line-not busy so, really, there is no excuse. We won't be returning. read more

Service is always quick and their portion sizes are on the slightly bigger side. Their food always hits the spot and their salsas have an amazing flavor and they do have one salsa that is pretty spicy and I believe it's the bright orange one. Either way it's the perfect level of spice. I love it! read more

"Decent" is the only just way to describe this taco shop, or at least my experience today. Tasted fine, but I've had better tortillas and bigger burritos. Hot sauce is good. Prices must be wrong on their menu because I paid $10.04 total for a bean and rice burrito and a 4 oz. side of guac when it said a bean burrito is $5 and a side of guac is $2.50. Can't imagine they charged me $2.50 just for rice in my burrito? Oh well, still not as outrageous as a lot of places, but they really need to fix that. I did drive thru and it was quick. I'd maybe come back but not my first choice for a taco shop and after reading many of the reviews of people getting food poisoning I'm thinking twice about even coming in the first place... read more

I loved Alejandro's food but not this new owner which it's now Rigoberto's. Me and my partner went to check out and order food . I was disappointed that the mini tacos are no longer in the menu and other items as well. I asked the lady about the special with the roll tacos she only mentioned 3 or 5 . I wa alike 3 ? She didn't bother in explaining what came with it or what kind of meat was on it . When I got home I open the bag and I saw a small container with 3 little rolled tacos ( greasy by the way) it was the worst food I ever had . Also I want to mention that one of their employees was sitting down in the dining area on the phone with her kid running around and had his hand inside his pant in his butt and he was touch everything in the counter and spilling water on the floor . This upgrade was for the worst not coming back to this place save your money and go to a different place . read more

For now, I'm going to put a 3 Star, Unfortunately... *I WOULD Love to Rate 5 Stars... But, I Put 3 because (think he is the Owner...) he was a little frustrated and annoyed with me over the drive through window because he wasn't understanding what I was Ordering...that was a lil' Unprofessional. I interacted with him before and he was a very Pleasant and Friendly person, which I Absolutely Appreciated. He also gave me 4 hot sauces of each of the 2 colors, and I Appreciated that. The First time I had hot sauce here, it was a little chunky consistency and Thick. But, the next 2 times it was Really Good and Smooth and also Spicy Hot! The California Burrito here is Very Yummy. It's Also Filling. This is my New Favorite Mexican Shop. The young girl who works here showed Excellent Hospitality. Would Love to Give 5 Stars if what I pointed out Improves. :) Thanks, God Bless you read more

Had a delicious California burrito at Los Alejandro's! I ordered it with al pastor and that decision proved to be worthwhile. Very flavorful and very filling. Staff was friendly and prepared our food quickly. I don't live in SD but would definitely come back on my next trip! read more

Wrong burrito ordered a carne asada burrito with guac and sour cream. Ended up with a pollo asada burrito if it was for me I would've just eat it but I don't eat chicken and my sister who is particular because she is ill wont eat it so 14.50 down the drain . read more

Went for a to go order , asked for green salsa and they put only red , asked also for like and here no lime to be seen. Customer service sucks read more

Carnitas burrito for the win! From Bay area, I moved to Seattle., and yes! Nothing beats the burrito here in Cali. So as soon as I stepped back in Cali for spring break, I always looked forward for a legit mexican burrito! 5 star for customer service - No dine in, but they have drive thru, which is definitely great! Food is served warm and fast! 4 star for the taste - The carnitas burrito was great! The meat is tender! No after taste! So that is a big plus for me. Generous pieces of steak and right amount of guac! However the tortilla that I ordered as a side seemed over-cooked. It taste a little bit bitter and the guac on top seems too plain as there's no tomato or onion. 4 star for the portion - I think, for asians like me, the burrito size is just right. But, it could be a little bit bigger. 5 star for the parking - they have their own parking! Being by the university ave, and having their own parking is great!! This place is definitely worth the try! read more

Located in North Park. We passed this place while walking to the new Friendly's location only to find that it was already closed! So on our way back, we decided to give this restaurant a shot. We were craving a quesadilla & order theirs with guacamole. Good & greasy, big enough for 2. & they have a variety of salsas to try! read more

Los Alejandro's is a great establishment to get some tasty rolled tacos and carne asada fries. I've been a customer for awhile at this location and the quality has only been improving!

I ordered my go to crispy beef taco. It came out promptly and held up during my walk to the new North Park park. The meat was nicely seasoned, and I really enjoyed their spicy salsa. I took the leftovers home! I've skipped this taco shop due to it mediocre ratings, I think inestimable try some of my other favorites. read more

The price of my pollo adobo burrito was listed as $8 and I was charged $3 more. I asked why the upcharge, the gentleman said "I don't know why." I suggested they change their signage, again, he said "I don't know"... Reluctantly, I still continued to purchase my meal: they need the money more than I do.... read more

Ordered a carne Asada burrito and the carne Asada was so salty I couldn't even finish my burrito. Meat also had a funny texture when I was chewing it. I Had no choice but to throw my burrito away. The next day as I'm typing this I'm having stomach flu symptoms. Not sure if this had something to do with the burrito but this was the last thing I ate last night. I wouldn't recommend this taco shop at all read more

Home of the backwards drive-thru. I would love to know the history of how the drive-thru window ended up on the right. I'm guessing that's lost to history. I digress. As a definitively mediocre 24-hour taco shop, your opinion of Los Alejandro's will most likely be determined by how inebriated you are. I can honestly say that I have enjoyed many, many meals there... post bar(s). But I know better than to say it is anything more than it is, and that is decidedly middle of the road, at best. Stumble in at 11pm-3am, and you'll probably be perfectly satisfied. If nothing else, the salsa/condiment bar is a major plus. Several reasonably solid salsas, marinated carrots, and a few other goodies combine to be a good step above your typical taco shop salsa bar. Beyond that, the food ranges from sub-par to average. I usually just get a quesadilla, which is a bit greasy, but satisfying. The chilaquiles were disappointing the one time I got them, and everything else fairly unmemorable. Of course, perhaps I shouldn't be using my memory as gauge for this place. Again, I digress. 2.5 stars. read more

Cute neighborhood taco spot! Anything adobado has always been pretty good and the staff is very friendly.

Worst burritos. I'm not even kidding or exaggerating. They make the WORST burritos both breakfast and carne asada burritos. Don't waste your money and time here. The meat is really bad quality. The beans are watery. The rice is disgusting. The breakfast burritos are pure tortilla. Very little eggs. Potatoes were BAD. read more

It you want food that's unsanitary this is your place to go. Told female worker about a flys in the hot sauce and she completely ignored, replacing it. She went to it and stirred it around and walked away. Then to top it off our five row tacos had pieces of french fry inside and that's a sign that they don't clean their equipment.. the center of the roll tacos were mushy and soggy to read more

Never going here again. They can't pay their providers, we can go to another taco shop of which there are hundreds.

I went here for breakfast after a night out and their breakfast burritos (and sauces) hit the spot. My meat eating friends got the carne asada and enjoyed it. Do not let the three stars deter you from coming here! I would recommend coming here to cure your hangover! read more

Sad to say, shady establishment. Ordered a Beef Burrito. My receipt had a $0.50 credit card fee, and they have no disclosure of such fee. I protested, saying I'll just dispute it with credit card company. Little girl working cash register, said no... canceled my order and gave me a full cash refund. Was fine with that, went down the street across Texas and got my Beef Burrito from their competitor. So if you order from this place, scrutinize your receipt. If there is a $0.50 charge using ATM card, dispute it with your bank. "Merchants are not allowed to mislead customers, such as by falsely advertising a lower price than they actually charge or hiding any differences between credit card, debit card, and cash prices. If a merchant fails to clearly and prominently disclose--before you pay or seek to pay for an item--what it will charge for the item, including any additional fees, that may violate California laws prohibiting deceptive or false advertising." I'll not be given this business my business. Keep it real, and honest. read more

REVIEW UPDATE Went back at 420 am on Saturday morning after. Heavy night drinking , because first experience was so great. Well I called my order in when I was 10 min away in my LYFT, I get there 12 min later and walk in and ask for my Togo order and they're like oh sorry , 5 minutes and THEN start making my order, which was a California burrito, I saw the cook throw old browned fries back into the frier then into my burrito.... tasted like literal DIRT ! Went from 5 stars to 1, doubt I'll be back. read more

Food: My wife ordered a carne asada taco and I ordered rolled tacos. The carne asada was mildly burned and my rolled tacos were fried too long, they were crunchy. The salsa bar was pretty good though, their green salsa is definitely worthy! Atmosphere: It's a taco shop, but I don't think they have bathrooms. Bright colors inside...like a taco shop! :) Service: Our waitress was nice, no complaints. Price: Not as cheap as you would expect, but it wasn't bad either. Since it is close to Hillcrest downtown, we figured it was a little more pricy. Overall: Probably won't be back because we don't live in the area, but it's a decent enough taco shop. It's clean inside which is the biggest thing for us. read more

I went here for the first time tonight because the place I normally go to was packed with a 15 minute wait in the drive-through. I ordered carne fries and asked for the fries to be crispy. Needless to say they were soggy, drenched with nacho cheese, and half the amount of what they usually serve down the street at La Fuente. If you want great carne fries for $2 less with real oaxaca cheese, go check out La Fuente and not this place. read more

I lived in Mexico for a while and I have been struggling to find a good taco in the states since, but this taco did not disappoint!! The salsa was just right, not too spicy and not too flavorless. If you are looking for an authentic and delicious taco this is definitely the spot. Also great prices! read more

Mini tacos were delicious! The corn tortillas were fresh, the meat was spiced just right, perfect amount of cilantro and onions, and they were topped with just enough guacamole. The red and green salsas were also fresh and were hot enough for me :) I will definitely be back!! read more

Good cheap food. For under $7 I had a California burrito. The salsa bar is the best part. It's not fancy, don't come on a first date. But food is good and fast. Sometimes paying extra for a glamorous taco/burrito isn't worth it. read more
