Rolled tacos, cheese and a bottled Coke!

So what do you do after a minor day surgery and you are hungry??? Go get the usual Rolled Tacos and a bottled coke!!! Almost got a breakfast burrito

Carne aasada burrito was packed with meat.. love the fresh quacamole on the rolls tacos. Would come back in for a late night craving for Mex food. Drive thru is convenient

3 Rolled Tacos Guacamole The Original Carne Asada Burrito

Calling all Southern Cali transplants or those who've spent time there--this is the place for you! Roberto's brings the genuine Southern California taco shop experience straight to Texas. The food is absolutely stellar and tastes exactly like you're at one of your faves back in Cali. The only thing missing was a Cactus Cooler in the fridge!

#11. 3 Rolled Guacamole Plate
Mandie Z.

My daughter brought me this one day because I've been wanting to try it but I haven't been wanting to leave the house. I ordered the guacamole rollups! They were amazing. My daughter ordered the same & she was a little disappointed because she thought it was coming with beans & rice where I understood the menu. LOL. She didn't care after the 1st bite is all she kept saying was this is really delicious, I didn't expect it to be so good. I was right there with her. Even though they put an amazingly delicious & perfect amount of guacamole on top of the rollups (taquitos de pollo), you would think they would get soggy. Nope not these hulk of rollups, they stay hard & flavorful till the last bite. I would highly recommend this dish. Even this place. Try everything at least once but definitely try this dish. Only thing they don't serve sweet tea!

Small little spot but it packs a punch! Great burritos and tacos and large portions of food for a great price. Totally worth it in this area. After church my friend and I wanted some tacos and came upon this place. Service was great! Guy helped us choose and it met our cravings. If you're in the area, be sure to stop by! Till then, let's eat!!!

Delicious rolled taco plate !! Perfectly made!  My compliments to the amazing Chef Jesse for an extraordinary experience every single time!

Carne Asada GIANT burrito
Syd G.

I grew up in Southern California, but I've been gone for 30 years. So I was excited to try my hometown amazing Mexican shop. Keep in mind there's only two tables and five seats of the bar. More than likely, you'll have to get it to go or eat in the car like a lot of people do. We got two Carne Asada burritos and our order of the Asada fries and two extra large sodas, all for $40. Let me tell you it was just as good as I remembered it. The tortillas are brought in from California and the Asada is amazing.

Very excited yall are in Texas! We grew up eating this in San Diego and ecstatic to have good Mexico food here. The flavors are all there reminding me of my youth and late nights filling my belly after a night out with friends having beverages. We picked up the meal to go as the dining area is quaint . 2 booths and a small bar top seating for 4 people. Wished we had more than 1 green and 1 red salsa for our order.

Oh yes time for a little bit of home!

PEOPLE!! PEOPLE!!! Everyone always get excited when California chain like In n Out come to town but how are people not talking about Roberto's coming to town?!?!?! I grew up four blocks from my Roberto's in Del Mar and now they are here. The clouds have parted and the heavens have opened and the angels are singing!! I drove 35 minutes to get here and see if it stayed true to home AND IT WAS! The rolled tacos are spot on fantastic. I can't describe perfection but just take my word and get an order! We also got the carne asada plate and it was so good. Just like home. The beans and rice were good as well but the beans didn't remind me exactly as i had remembered. I also suggest the cheese quesadilla! They have a dual drive through to help server you quickly. They are very small inside and only have two tables and one counter that can seat about five. They do have a few tables outside. Everyone must go here NOW. You can thank me later.

Cali Surf And Turf Burrito
Jimmy V.

Came in to check this place out since I used to live in SoCal. I ordered the Cali Surf and Turf burrito. It was super good. Shrimp and steak cooked perfectly and the flavors were on point. The service was great. Food comes out hot and fast! The salsas were below average to me with low flavor profile. That's why I can only give a 4 star. If they step that sauce game up it'll be a 5 star. Recommendations: offer that cream sauce/ avocado salsa with more spice. Valarie's taco shop sauces are fire.

Carne asada fries added pico
Kish K.

Food is great but my only concern is every time I ask for pico on my carne asada fries I never receive it . Today was third time going and had to go inside just to grab it. The cashier was super apologetic in which we appreciate . Thank you for always filling my tummy

The Original Carne Asada Burrito
Owen R.

Until recently, after I discovered Mediterranean food, Mexican food was always my favorite, so I've had a lot of burritos in my day... a lot! Now, I've been hearing about Roberto's Taco Shop for weeks from my boss, a native San Diegan, who frequented Roberto's Taco Shop growing up. So, I was going in with some high expectations and to my surprise, this place somehow still managed to exceed those high expectations. For $11, the Original Carne Asada Burrito is one of the best burritos I've ever had. It's filling, it's well constructed and the combination of juicy, tender carne asada with fresh pico de gallo and guacamole is just perfect. And I have to say, the hot carrots took me by surprise as well. Goodbye, Chipotle. Hello, Roberto's!

Crispy taco and cheese enchilada combo.
Chris A.

Well I went back to give this place another shot and maybe it's just me but this place is just mid.The taco was good the enchilada was ok but the refried beans were just to thick and dry for me.But the rice was ok.This place probably just isn't my bag but you guys give it a shot and see what you think?

This was a friends recommendation and I must say I'm happy that she chose this spot…read more I walked in and was greeted however I explained I was waiting for a friend so I took a seat on the couch and waited for my friend to arrive. The moment she walked in they were ready to seat us. Unfortunately I don't recall the name of our server however he was awesome! Knowledgeable, helped with making decisions, and friendly. We sat long after we were done eating catching up and not once did he rush us out the door, instead he kept coming by refilling our glasses. So in the process of catching up, I dropped the ball and didn't get the pictures i normally would get (I know, rookie mistake) however they have great lunch specials and great prices (my plate was $10 and came with beans, rice, a brisket taco, and a cheese enchilada with pico on the side). When we got seated they also brought chips and each of us our own salsa so I could double dip as much as I liked and put some on my food. Seriously, this was a great lunch and I even had enough to take home and munch on later. Will I go back? Definitely as I need to give the drinks and other dishes a try!!!

Overall, it was ok. A little pricey for what it is, which is an average taco spot. We got the…read morechicharrones. They came fresh out of the fryer, so it was great to get them still popping. I requested a side out guacamole with it. Their queso and guacamole was the tiniest portion for the cost. We had to request extra salsa and they wouldn't refill the chips. Beers were cold. Food came out hot. I do say that you hear the microwave door slam constantly. I don't know if we would go back but I'm glad we tried it. Our bill was $80 for the equivalent of On The Border.
