My fiancé, sister and I had their nachos AND OMFG THEY ARE BOMBBBBB!!!! definitely recommend 1000000/10. We also had their hot dogs and all the tastes of the sauces with the bacon wrapped hotdogs are amazing. We came to have a beer at belching beavers and they were posted up here, so glad we tried them They are all super nice and the food has such beautiful presentation. This food is made with passion and love! I really hope that their dedication does not go unnoticed. Definitely will be driving out here just to pick up some nachos & again their customer service was amazing! PS: the food was too good I didnt take a picture ​ read more

Just visiting SD and came here, little bit of a wait, but damn good tacos and able to hop in to the belching beaver for a beer during the wait. Great place! read more

My and boyfriend were looking for a place to grab some dinner since we had a long day. He happened to come across papasotes yelp and after reading the menu we decided to give it a try as it's hard to find a good place that has hot dogs. We order a bit of everything , like a hot dog , tacos a torta and burrito however I was only able to get a picture of the hot dog & wow we were both so satisfied with the taste and the service! Although we didn't finish everything we did take it home so we can enjoy for the next day but highly recommend trying this place out! They did mention to us that their baked potato is the best seller so we want to give that a try next time we go! It was also nice to enjoy a beer there as well as they are stationed in front of a bar in North Park. read more

Papasotes - Bacon wrapped hotdog - Tacos Near Me - Chula Vista, California

Was at Belching Beaver in North Park and they were set up outside. The bacon wrapped hot dog was amazing! The best I have had So much better than an illegal vendor outside of Petco (and safer too). The dog was cooked to perfections and there are plenty of chopped grilled onions that go so well with the chipotle mayo. They were very busy but it was well worth the wait. I am dreaming of my next one. Oh, and skip the ketchup...we're all adults here. read more

I have been searching for street tacos here in San Diego. I stumbled upon this place and couldn't be happier. The servers are so sweet and welcoming. The food smells and tastes BOMB. I ordered carne asada, 1 with cheese, and adobada tacos. I devoured them!! They are so flavorful and the prices are pretty decent. I can't wait to go back and try the bacon wrapped hot dogs and burritos next! I 10/10 recommend giving this place a try. You don't be disappointed! read more

Hmmmmmmm yummm all I needed was the hotdog. So tasty and delicious. They is a pop- up spot located outside of a bar. They have pretty darn good food to add with a drink at the bar. Only downside I would say is they can take awhile to make the food if they are busy. But if you don't mind waiting while having a drink inside, they bring you the food right to you when it's ready. Not too bad. read more

I kid you not, this is the BEST burrito I have ever had! I took a bite into it and looked at my husband and we both said, "woah!" We both come from LA where you find Mexican food everywhere but this has topped anything we have ever had. Will definitely be making the drive to visit. Also, the service is great! The cook took our order and was very friendly. You can find them in front of Belching Beaver Brewery. Come down, have a burrito or taco and grab a beer while your at it read more

I pulled up out of curiosity & wasn't disappointed at all. I got the carne asada torta & it was top tier if not the best I had. Meat was marinated perfectly to where I almost forgot to use the salsa. Woulda posted a pic but I crushed it, I'll try next time. read more

Papasotes was a great spot to eat at. My girlfriend and I really enjoyed the food. I got the PERROTE 10/10 and my girlfriend got a regular hot dog also 10/10 .... read more

Great food! We were visiting San Diego and we decided to go here based on high Yelp reviews. I had the Bujee Papa with carne asada which is a baked potato with carne asada, cheese, sour cream, etc. like nachos, but in a baked potato! It was so tasty!!! My husband had the burrito with adobada(pork). When she asked for rice and beans, we thought she meant on the side, so the burrito came with just meat, so just a heads up. It was still delish! Also, the place is on the sidewalk, but you can eat inside of the brewery they are in front of, which I think was called Beaver Brewery. Very nice set up! read more

Very good Mexican food. Adobada Burrito was phenomenal and enjoyed carne asada fries. Warning that they are very slow. Took over an hour to get food and it wasn't busy. Would go back if wait wasn't so long. read more

Hands down some of the best Mexican food I've had in a long time. Had their chicken burrito with add rice and it was one of - if not the - best chicken burrito I've ever had. It was huge and delicious and the sauces were on point. The service is excellent, it's family run so everyone there works behind the counter / the grill / the floor and they deserve every tip they can get. Pro tip - cork and brew is conjoined to it and they don't open up until 3 but you can always order a beer as Papasotes is open 12pm - 10pm every day. Came back the next day and had the carne asada taco w/ extra cheese and the adobada taco. Both were amazing. My buddy got their carne asada taco and the shrimp taco with a side of fries and we smashed everything. Definitely coming back for more! read more

Taco spot in front of the brewery. A little pricey but the food is good. They also you to take the food in the brewery which is nice.

Best carne asada fries I've ever had!!!! I've had a lot of carne asada fries, but these are top tier. Every bite is extremely flavorful and incredible! Originally wanted the bougie baked potato, but they only do it on Fridays and Saturdays. We ordered on a Sunday. But to make up for it, they added bacon to our carne asada fries for free. That's incredible customer service to me. So happy this place is close to us because it will definitely be our new favorite Mexican food spot! read more

Pretty impressed with the quality of food ( so much meat! ) & the great service. We ordered 2 cane asada burritos, chicken burrito & a plain quesadilla. They were delicious. The burritos were simply made with meat and healthy ingredients. The staff was very friendly. We will definitely come back! read more

Amazing! Must visit! We absolutely loved this place. The tacos were so good. Also, we ordered a California burrito that was one of the best we've ever had. Awesome, friendly service. Very short walk from Petco, and they're open til 10:00. If we're ever in the area again we will be back. read more

The perrote was amazing Im definitely coming back. Right next to Belching Beaver in North Park

Soooo yummy!!!! The adobado is the best!!! Prices have gone up a little but at least it's still a fat burrito

I'm going to be so real, the burrito was just okay. I was really hyped reading all the reviews, but there was nothing super special about the burrito. I will say it was super loaded with meat, but I found it to be too salty. I also felt like it was lacking the other stuff, it needed more guacamole and cheese in my opinion. I'm a San Diego native and there are just way better and more affordable carne asada burritos around. The salsas were also very mild. I just wanted to leave an honest review, I didn't hate it but I wouldn't buy it again. read more

Papasotes - Carne asada burrito - Tacos Near Me - Chula Vista, California

As a native San Diegian having a plethora of burritos this was it. Literally the first bite of the carne asada burrito I smiled. This is a pop up restaurant behind belching Beaver, and it has a few benches to seat as well as a little billiards area. The burritos have a cheese crust similar to Puesto and the Carne Asada is well marinated filled with meat and definitely got me full as a big guy. I definitely will be back. The fryer was down so I could not try the Carne Asada fries, but that will be another mission. read more

Was told there was no food on a Monday somehow so I couldn't order anything despite driving down to this place. This restaurant does not answer any phone calls either so I was not able to ask beforehand. I am beyond disappointed with this place and would not reccomend. read more

Referred by a coworker. Got a CA burrito and didn't disappoint. The chipotle sauce had a great taste as well.

Usually order their tacos and burritos and every time it's been very good!! Also love that they're conveniently located at Belching Beaver. Good spot! read more

Burritos are the only immaculate thing here. Quesadillas are greasy and $8 for this "chips and guac" is craaaaaazy. The guac is unseasoned whipped avocado. And for two cups that are smaller than chipotle?? read more

Best torta I've had in San Diego. This place is gonna be a place we visit everytime we're in town now. Must try place for sure

We literally waiting for 40 minutes and we were the first folks there once they opened. I guess they were doing a ton of Uber eats orders but still. We eventually went outside and stood in front of them until they completed our order. That being said, they have an absolutely fabulous Carne Asada taco and shrimp taco. The pork nachos were just OK. read more

You have to stop in and try the food. It is fantastic. Made fresh to order and the Staff is very friendly even came out to give treats to our pup. Right in the middle of downtown San Diego little seating outside but still great views if you can sit outside. read more

The food is amazing. Very generous portion. Super friendly service as well. Will definitely come back when I am in town. read more

Papasotes - Tacos Near Me - Chula Vista, California

Every evening my king and I would smell the aromas of authenticity, flavorful goodness seeping through the balcony window of our apartment. Tonight we were chillin on the balcony and we hollered down to the masters at work and they invited us down to their kitchen of wonders. We had the pleasure of meeting the owners Gigi and Eli. Their welcome was like a warm tortilla hot off the grill, embracing us with kindness and hospitality. My man's was HUNGRY and he ordered a carne asada burrito and holy guacamole she was stuffed, flavorful, and thiccc. My man's was salivating and I had to wipe his chin.. multiple times. Chips crispy and salsas overflowing. We cannot wait to come back on a weekly (daily) basis. 10/10. But forreal, please visit this business the food is amazing and the owners are remarkable. Thank you for a great experience, neighbor! read more

If you want Mexican food in downtown COME HERE! From a San Diego local, this is the BEST Mexican food I've had in my LIFE. The service is amazing, the staff is kind and sociable, and the food is TOP tier. I recommend the soyrizo burrito as a vegetarian, but my meat eating friends have tried half the menu and it's ALL amazing. Can't recommend this place enough. Please go. read more

We hired Papasotes for a small gathering and their tacos and service was amazing!! They arrived on time, were very professional, and the food was delicious! If you are looking for "taquero" service, look no further. All our guests kept talking about how good the tacos were. Some of the people in attendance were very picky foodies and they were thoroughly impressed. Keep up the good food and service, Papasotes! read more

Had a huge chicken burrito (had to share it was so huge). My friends had the hot dogs and they said they were the best hot dogs they've ever eaten! read more

Found this place on yelp and was surprised to see it was a stand. But let me tell you, they did not disappoint. The staff is so friendly and helpful. We ordered nachos, chicken tacos, and bacon-wrapped hotdog definitely hit the spot. Even my picky daughter ate all her tacos, which was a huge compliment. (Only thing to complain about is I only wished the nachos had beans) read more

I love this place it's like a five minute walk from my I jus upset I haven't found this place sooner the tacos, burritos are delicious I plan on coming back and trying everything on the menu and also the micheladas aren't too bad either read more

No joke, this is some of the best Carne Asada, and Adobada I've ever had. And the owner is super cool. The meat has that flavor of coming fresh off the grill. Get a torta or a burrito with either. Trust me. 5 stars!! read more

Outstanding food. The steak and jalapeño torta and bacon wrapped hot dogs Amazing. Complements to the cooks. Would love to see God bless them with a restaurant of their own. read more

I had just barely taken my lunch after 7 hours at work, and I just happened to walk by this place and decide to take a chance on it. Best lunch decision I've ever made. I ordered an adobada burrito and it was fantastic; packed with meat, flavorful chipotle sauce, and god the tortilla was perfectly crispy. Legitimately brought my mood up for the rest of the day. I cannot recommend it enough. Fare warning I will give, it can be a tiny bit pricey as I spent $25 for a burrito and a drink, but that burrito is so good and filling that in my opinion it was worth it. Thanks guys, I appreciate the meal! read more

We came to visit San Diego for a day with so many options and so little time we are glad we stumbled across this gem. Food was excellent! It's small business outside of the belching beaver. We will definitely be coming back to this spot any time we are here in San Diego. Thank you guys for the super delicious food and excellent service. Can't wait to come back and try the other items on the menu read more

Their burritos are some of if not the best I've had in SD. Get the carne asada and add rice and beans and you'll be blown away. Super friendly folks there - grab a beer in belching beaver while you wait as well! read more

We ordered 2 burritos and 2 tacos . The chicken was dry and still frozen . The shrimp tacos were over cooked and no spices . Even the salsas tasted sour. Don't believe the 5 stars . Stay away from this place before you have food poisoning!!! read more
