Stopped in late at night as Rolberto's was one of the few food places open. Inside is not that nice but it gets the job done, although I took my food to go. I ordered the Adobada Fries and they were massive! It was enough for 2 full meals. The fries were nicely crispy with the adobada meat being fairly tender and flavorful. Mixed together with the salsas, this was a really good meal. Stopping at a place like this just gives more validity to the idea that any Mexican shop you stop at in San Diego, you're gonna get something good. read more

Rolberto's Taco Shop - Adobada Fries - Mexican Near Me - San Diego, California

Customer service was ok, atmosphere was ok, but attention to detail was so bad. I ordered some carne asada fries and all I received was a box of cheese fries and my roll tacos weren't that great. Really ruined my day at the beach. I went back to try to get a refund but they couldn't give it to me via the payment method I used (CC). On the same trip, my buddy ordered some asada fries as well and asked and paid for extra sour cream which they also forgot to add to his plate. Luckily he checked his plate before he left the establishment and was able to get that added before we left. I thought my carne asada fries were good but I didn't notice until I was at the beach already! Should've checked my order before I left!!! read more

Rolberto's Taco Shop - What is supposed to be an order of Carne Asada Fries but is a box of heated up fries with cheese thrown on top. - Mexican Near Me - San Diego, California

Burritos are huge and service is very fast. Tried the carne Assad burrito with French fries inside and it was a little dry but nothing a little Salsa can't fix! I originally ordered the "wild" burrito but I'm not sure if the cashier understood so my order was slightly wrong but it was still delicious! Affordable as well. Around $10-11 for my burrito read more

I don't know what is wrong with people, but this place is fkn delicious. Ive been coming here 15 years and I like trying different taco shops across San Diego, this is my favorite. Not only are the portions big, the meat is well seasoned, and their hot sauces, hands down, my favorite. read more

Still one of my favorite places for carne Asada fries and add pico de Gallo! Very nice staff that works here. Fresh food made to order! Love that the cashier asked me how many hot sauce I wanted because some places only give like 3 and I need 20 Lol! They have some seatings but I usually take it to go. Cash and card accepted. (.50cent charge if using debit/credit) read more

I had a pretty good breakfast burrito from this Rolberto's Taco Shop. I had the bacon and eggs with cheese burrito for about $7. It was well priced and of a good medium to large size. The burrito came with a decent amount of bacon and a good amount of eggs. I did not like that they did not scrambled the eggs well enough. There should be very little whites and mostly yellow with a good scramble. Anyways, they put a good amount of cheese in the burrito which was a good thing of course. I liked the type of flour tortilla that they used. It had that good buttery texture. The lady at the counter was friendly enough. read more

My carne asada fries were gross the fries were probably old and refried because they were all ugly and mushy the entire thing don't recommend unless to ask for them to make them fresh idk how to explain it but they reuse them or they let them stay out too long read more

Very solid taco shop. Burritos were big and the prices were fair. Hot sauce was a tad watery, but the flavor was good and they weren't stingy with it. Store was clean and service was quick. Will definitely come back. read more

Just got a steak breakfast burrito, don't forget to make sure what's in your burrito, just a good note for all San diegans, asked for potatoes but unfortunately had to sub for fries, which is again normal... Wanted to try something different from my local chain, the burrito is bussin and phat, cheese is melted and it's not overly greasy like other places, very pleasurable and fast experience, Salsa is decent Salsa 8/10 Burrito 9/10 wish there was real potatoes read more

BEWARE! This place has duped me twice. The first time I just thought they were using a low-quality bacon, but again today I ordered a bacon and egg breakfast burrito, and the burrito contained some type of mystery meat. It appeared to be gristle or a piece of fat. I instantly lost my appetite. read more

Bro what the actual hell is this... stopped by cause it was near an errand I had to run to and bro, when I say I'm disappointed, I'm not even mad, just straight up disappointed and disgusted by the lack of respect. Never again, place is depressing as hell and clearly the customer service matches their food quality. Surprised y'all are still even open, it should be a federal offense to be able to legally serve this and charge 6$ for it read more

Talk about stingy with the meat! Would it hurt to put a little more instead of just fries? It's like I ordered fries with a little meat read more

The service was fast and friendly even for a lunch time. But a mixed burrito that I ordered had more bell pepper (large pieces too!) than it had beef. Mixed burritos I've ordered from other Mexican shops have usually had more beans than beef but the onions, peppers, etc are usually cut a lot finer and mixed in thoroughly to notice. Perhaps it was just this time but next time I order will confirm if it's standard practice and if so, a third visit won't be in the agenda. read more

Rolberto's Taco Shop - Main menu with lots to choose from. - Mexican Near Me - San Diego, California

This place is okay. The one thing I liked most from here is the abodado fries. The carne asada fries tends to be too dry. But even the abodado fries can be tiring. Sometimes, they don't even use ripe avocados because I bit into a few chucks that looked like it wasn't ripe and some of them look odd.. they were dark. Bleh! Plus, it just seems like a heart attack in a box. Even the french fries were super greasy and oily! Overall food: dry and greasy.. Most of them. The cashier didn't seem very friendly. I don't think I'll miss this place much. read more

It was 10pm, My bf and I were craving taco shop. This place has been the place to go to for that and it's been good. Until tonight! What happened!? The meat was so dry, tasteless, boring! And not to mention had pieces of burnt idk what it was! Meat, I suppose. Felt like I was eating rocks. I couldn't finish my burrito. My bf had burnt pieces in his burrito too. What a Shame won't be coming back! That's for sure. read more

This is a pretty average taco shop. There's a lot of room inside for seating, the menu is pretty extensive and has a variety of items. It not seem like the most welcoming place since there's jail bars at the counter. I only got a breakfast burrito (bacon & cheese). The bacon is of a thicker cut, the cheese a good amount but clumped together, and the eggs are fried and a tad oily. The salsa is pretty good (the red one) and a has good kick to it. read more

This is one of my favorite tacos shops in San Diego that I been coming to for over 9 years now, but lately I been very disappointed with the customer service and food quality. I ordered 2 breakfast burritos with ham, bacon, cheese, french fries and sour cream. Both breakfast burritos came with no sour cream and one of them had no french fries, but I did get charged for all the extra added toppings. I also order a carne asada burrito and got a conga burrito because accorded to the cook who took my order he had heard "CONGA" instead of CARNE ASADA and was arguing with me through the phone that he was right and I was wrong. Even when the lady at the cashier confirmed my order repeating a carne asada burrito and 2 breakfast burritos with the total of $26.73. read more

This place is jam-packed on Friday/Saturday late-nights as tons of people come straight here after partying and mack out on greasy food, LOL! read more

I just came back from ordering food to take home. Two words...never again. This by far is the WORST torta in existence. I ordered a carne asada torta, without guacamole. Most of the time this is fine because the beans spread on the bread provide enough flavor and moisture to make the sandwich edible. I get home to a soggy disgusting mess. I couldn't pick up the torta because it was so soggy it ripped. I use a fork then start eating and its literally all lettuce, FOUR chunks of meat, and onions and green pepper. Bland and dry. So why is the bread so soggy? It's a mystery. No beans spread on the bread. I eat the meat by itself, dry as tree bark and not marinated. Just tastes like boiled meat. Soooo much lettuce. Nothing could help this disaster. So soggy, it's inedible. I am in disbelief over this food. Also a carne asada quesadilla was ordered. Dry, meatless, cheese less disaster. Gross. My daughter had a "crazy" burrito. This is basically a California. Fries, fries, and some more fries, carne, cheese, sour cream....and more fries. I was amazed at how large the burrito was until I cut it in half for her and saw it was 95% fries, 3% carne, 2% cheese and sour cream. Also drier than sand. No amount of salsa could help this food. And for the price.....never again. read more

So, saw this place on Yelp and decided to try it because it was nearby. Well, kinda wish I hadn't. The person that took my order was very rude and unprofessional. They saw me walk up to the counter to order and yet still waited for me to ring a bell letting them be aware of my presence. Not only that, the carne asada fries I ordered were horrible. So tasteless and bland. Although, you do get about 2 lbs of them in a single order. I had to season them when I got back home. 2 stars since I was able to fix the fries. read more

Very disappointed in my favorite place. Usually brag on how amazing their carné asada fries are but today was a fail. Burnt fries, barley and meat. The red sauce was water and the carné we did get had no flavor. We did call to let them know and only got a thank you for telling us. read more

This is a place I've actively tried to avoid since the incident several years ago where two people were injured or killed or something in a botched robbery attempt on the shop. It, of course, explained why there was a gigantic steel jail-like bar that separates the eating area from the service kitchen and cashier. It reminded me of the Subway shop across the street before it was renovated last year. Honestly, it made me feel a little uneasy, though it was interesting to order through a tiny slit in the cage. I like the variety in the menu, though the prices are a litle steep for "cheap Mexican food," in my opinion (or it may be a function of my not having much money in the first place). It was close by so that's why we picked it for lunch. My brother had the California burrito, which seemed like the better option on the dreary Saturday afternoon we went to get lunch. I had the carne asada fries, which was light on the guacamole and a little too cheesy for my taste. Horchata was good, though. I did feel like my arteries were clogging like crazy after taking a bite of each fry. Interesting to see some old arcade games in the eating area as well. Not much else to complain about, but it could definitely use some improvement. read more

It wasnt my plan to come here the first time that I did, I was just hungry and there was a taco shop. Had the Carne Asada burrito, it was good, but the salsa they have here is damn good, it has just enough of a kick. I saw that they had adobada fries and was really excited for it. After a night out drinking I asked my friend if he wanted to split the fries, I suggested adobada, he suggested chicken, then I said carne asada sounds good too. So we did the only sensible thing we combined all the meats. It was was glorious. It was about $12 but thats not to bad. The parking lot is small and awkwardly shaped, the place inside could use a mop. I would give it 3 stars but the master mix I had gave it that 4th read more

Rolberto's Taco Shop - Triple Threat - Mexican Near Me - San Diego, California

Went here for lunch on Friday after one of my favorite places (Minh Ky) was packed and the group of us were hungry and didn't want to wait another half hour to eat. So another co-worker said let's go here. It's on the Boulevard in a 'ghetto' part of town. Yes someone was murdered here awhile back. You walk in and the first thing you notice is the cashier and the kitchen is all located behind metal bars. That's kind of sketchy! The food is pretty good though. I got a carnitas torta and it was pretty big. I could only eat about half. True carnitas are usually pork chunks and not shredded like what you get here. It still tasted good though. One of my co-workers got an order of carne asada fries. Man, talk about a hugemongous serving. You can easily feed two people with an order. I tried some of his fries and they were dang bueno. Fries were nice and crispy (a must) and the meat, cheese and sour cream was gooey deliciousness. Is that some sour cream on my cheek? Prices are decent and the food is good. It's not gourmet food, but good if you're hungry and their portions are really good sized. You won't leave here hungry. read more

These guys are my go to take out spot. They are always generous with portions, the food tastes fresh, and they are always kind to their customers. They even walked the food out to us during this quarantine time. We really enjoy their salsa, and they have agua frescas and sodas to drink. We have never had an issue with their food, but then again, we just take this place for what it is! Hole in the wall, strip mall, authentic San Diego mexican spot! They're also next to a kick ass donut place. read more
