You'd think this restaurant would be good with it being in SD county, but I'd say it was very disappointing... The price is average, but the food was flavorless and just didn't really feel or taste fresh at all. We ordered a couple tacos and they were just okay... beans were just basic... it just didn't taste great Unfortunately, my mother-in-law actually thinks this place is good which is how we ended up here... but my wife and I LOVE Mariscos Del Mar de Cortez down the street... a little more expensive, but the food has amazing flavor and always comes out hot and fresh... to each their own I guess

The best flautas around

Grew up in Ramona going to Mi Ranchito. Now every time I go to town and want Mexican food I stop by. Their flautas are literally the best! We also got an order of carne asada crazy fries and those are always bomb! The staff was all really nice. I love when you eat in they give the squirt bottles of salsa. Both red and green are sooooo good! If you're looking for something sweet their banana milkshakes are fire too!

Horrible food - the carne asada burrito is 90% Lettuce, If I could give them zero stars I would, I ordered a carne asada burrito and it's always made with meat, pico and guacamole everywhere else in the states except for this place the burrito was 90% lettuce 10% meat no guac but instead a green mayonnaise. Nasty looking burrito this place is a joke, will attempt to return this ****

Half eaten taco plate - teen boys wouldn't finish.

Their prices are ridiculous for mid Mexican food. Customer service is lacking and it's dirty.

my search for the best taco spot in sd is finally over. im a big tacos el g hater and tj tacos blew…read morethem out of the park. tacos el g used to be good, don't get me wrong. but the quality went down, salsa tastes like water, meat is tough, dry, and chewy, and expensive. tj tacos did everything right. tacos were huge and full of meat. 10/10 no notes. we ordered adobada, carne asada, lengua, tripas, and cabeza tacos. everything was insane. adobada was juicy, flavorful, and addicting. my brother looooved their carne asada and he's picky with his tacos too! the smokiness and char from the grill gave it the absolute best flavor. it was also super tender and juicy. my lengua and cabeza were just perfect. cabeza wasn't too fatty like some places. i enjoyed how carne asada was paired with a fresh flour tortilla while the others came with corn. they had the best tortillas! i'm just a girl who loves salsa and i need them spicy. that's where a lot of tacos spots here fall short. their salsas, especially verde, were spicy and soooo good. i was so impressed! lots of seating inside and outside. you order first and pay after. don't forget to ask for grilled onions, jalapeños, and extra salsa. can't wait to come back for drive thru!

TJ Tacos was a disappointing experience. We ordered 12 tacos, and the total came out to almost $59,…read morewhich felt very expensive for what we received. The tacos had very little meat, and the portions were not satisfying. To make matters worse, our order only came with four hot sauces. When we politely asked for more hot sauce and extra napkins, the staff refused. We were also told that only one napkin was allowed per plate, which was surprising. Even other taco places, like Frida's, are much more accommodating. Overall, the food did not justify the price, and the customer service left a lot to be desired. Unfortunately, this was an unpleasant visit, and I won't be returning. I'll definitely be taking my business somewhere else in the future.

I came here about a decade ago and loved the shrimp burritos and tacos and the salsa bar so much…read morethat I specifically remembered it was in Rancho Bernardo 10 years later. I was somewhat in the area again to go to the San Diego Safari Park and was happy to find that Yesenia's was just as good as I remembered all these years later. The shrimp burrito with the jalapeno salsa from the salsa bar is my favorite shrimp burrito in the world lol. It's not pictured here because I couldn't wait to eat it and had no time for pictures. All the salsas were good but as previously mentioned, the jalapeno is my favorite. You can see for yourself how popular it is because the first bin is nearly empty in the picture. Every time I go down to San Diego, I'm going to have to stop by here now that I've rediscovered it.

Came back for the sake of nostalgia, as this was my go-to spot when I lived in the area…read more I ordered a Carne Asada Burrito. Food quality is, without a doubt, amazing. 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...
