Ya GOTTA try one -- it's an AMAZING treat!…read more It's true -- it's a meal to be eaten within the hour: the shell is super crispy and has excellent flavor ... if you let it cool off for later, it's still great, but a very different experience. I like to add cold sour cream, regular Pace salsa & some green olive juice from home -- the store doesn't keep these onhand & that's ok. AND gotta have one of the authentic Tamarind drinks! They also have an amazing selection of legit chips If the SECRET of the Roasted Pork ever gets out -- it's so amazing, it might hafta be regulated!

If you spent any time in Carlsbad, this place is reminiscent of Grubby's in many ways. I truly appreciated how clean it was. Parking is't vast, but it's enough. WE WILL BE BACK.

The food tasted fresh, flavorful, and clearly made to order. The service was excellent as well. Ordering at the counter was quick and easy, and the staff was friendly and helpful with recommendations. They also took the time to tell us about their weekly and seasonal specials. The restaurant was clean, welcoming, and even had a Champions League match on while we ate. Overall, it was a great dinner experience, and I'll definitely be back.

We've been wanting to give this place a try since hearing about it from my husband's coworker and I…read morewish we came much sooner. This is a great spot for decent Mexican food. We ordered some tacos (carne asada, al pastor, lengua) and quesadillas (carne asada and chicken). I knew the tacos were going to be good (and they were) but I took a bite out of each quesadilla and I was pleasantly surprised at how flavorful they both were. If you like HEAT, both their red and green salsas were amazing. My husband loves a good kick and is pretty picky about his salsas but even he was impressed. The red salsa has more punch flavor wise, but it also has a spicier kick. I'm a green salsa gal through and through, and couldn't handle the heat from the red. My husband ordered our meal at the counter and said it was easy. The service was fast and our food came individually as they were done through a pickup counter kind of thing. The restaurant itself is clean and the string lights on the ceiling were the perfect touch. They have cold drinks in a refrigerator by the register and we love the apple sodas. Thoroughly pleased with Taqeria San Luis, and we can't wait to be back. All 4 of my kids raved about it on the way home.
