    The atmosphere was like of those hole in the wall restaurants where you think the food must be…read moregood, but no... the food was just as bad as the atmosphere. They had these cheap old tables and plastic plates. This was no hidden gem. It looked like an old truck stop from the 80s. The art on the walls was kind of cool and indicative of a Mexican restaurant. They didn't carry Jarritos. I asked for pineapple. They said no, but later I found out they had pineapple agua fresca . The waitress should have told me. My niece had chicken nuggets, but they had no barbecue sauce. The carnitas tacos weren't shredded and they had absolutely No flavor whatsoever. My tacos fell apart too. Their tortillas are weak. Luckily they had lemon, salt and Tapatio. They did start with complementary chips and salsa, which was a nice surprise. They didn't have any breakfast burritos We had to wait forever for them to bring our check, they never brought it and we had to walk all the way up to the front to ask about payment.

    This place was absolutely HORRIBLE! Don't come here just because of the high ratings like we did…read more They gave me a caldo de pescado that tasted like straight up vinegar, the carrots were not cut all the way, it smelled and looked horribly. Even after I kindly asked if they could just take it out our check after taking a sip of it to try it, the server immediately became hostile and said that why would they take it back if I had tried it already. Then we asked to speak to the manager since she couldn't help us and she told us the cooks were the managers and that they extremely angry at us and at her for me not liking the food and asking if they could please just take it out of our check. Even worse than that, we saw cockroaches all over their bathroom!!! 0/10 save ur $$$$ most unprofessional & horrible restaurant experience ever. :(

    This is some of the best Mexican Food I've had in a long time. And this is coming from someone…read morewho's lived in San Diego all of his life (and is now in LA!) Service was amazing, so quick to come out with fresh chips and salsa (FRESH! as in they made the chips in-house... rare trait to come by these days IMO). Quantity of food was incredible. I can't speak for the menudo (dad got this) or for the 3 egg platter (not really sure why my mom got this) but $16 for a carne asada burrito as well as the beans, rice, and veggies on the side was such a steal. Especially in Anza Borrego. I would've thought it would maybe be more expensive since it probably costs a lot to bring out the best ingredients in the desert but somehow they have it all figured out. The carne asada burrito meat was top tier. Smoky flavor, soft with charred edges, so flavorful and overall the quantity of the burrito was way more than I was expecting. Lastly, I'm just so happy my dog got to sit outside with us. They have a shaded patio with a couple tables. I think other pet parents followed suit, as this seems to be a hit for dog-friendly spots here in Anza Borrego. I'd highly recommend. What a great find by me. Go me!! This is truly a hole in the wall that needs more recognition. You won't be let down!
