When I asked how much longer the cashier attitude was you should have asked if I had orders before yours and I was like well I only saw one person here. 1 maybe she should suggest I have certain amount of tickets before your. I worked at taco shops and the way they worked was they would do 1 phone, and if they had in person 1 in person that way people wouldn't wait that long. So I asked to cancel and get a refund the girl said your is almost coming up but didn't really want to refund. To I waited. When I got to my car the burrito was dripping sour cream dripping!! Took a few bites and threw away it was too nasty to eat. ( maybe if it where just a little bit it would of been perfect, cause the meat tasted good the only thing is exaggerated sour cream. I was going to go back but I was going on a road trip and had my newborn with me.

I paid $9.50 for a wet bean and cheese burrito, price seems excessive for beans, cheese, tortilla and canned red sauce. The menu showed $6.50 for the burrito, meaning the wet sauce was a large up charge. I got red and green sauce on the side, the green was bland, red had a little spice. Drive through is a little tight for larger vehicles. Small parking lot for free parking. No inside dining, but they do have some tables in front and walk up window to order. Service was average. Probably wouldn't go back to this location, there are too many other options for Mexican food in SD.

The food is always delicious, full of flavor, and the portions are perfect for sharing. What really makes this place stand out is the salsa--it's better than any other Mexican restaurant we've tried. We especially love the rolled tacos, California burrito, and their rice and beans... all amazing every time. On top of that, the service is fast and our orders are always accurate. Highly recommend!

**Extremely disappointing and frustrating experience**…read moreStopped by Albert's Fresh Mexican Food on my way home after picking up my son from a football fundraiser. We don't live in the area--it's in his dad's school district--so we're about a **20-minute freeway drive away**. We ordered **2 bean and cheese burritos and a menudo**. Somehow, it took **20-30 minutes just to get our to-go order**. After being out in the sun since 8 AM, I was exhausted, hungry, and just ready to get home. We finally get home, open the bag, and realize **WE WERE GIVEN SOMEONE ELSE'S FOOD**--1 carne asada burrito and 3 rolled tacos that were plain and **drier than the Sahara Desert**. At this point, I'm pissed. I called to ask for a refund because I live far as fuck and I'm absolutely not making another **40+ minute round trip** because YOUR staff handed me the wrong order. I was told they couldn't refund me unless I physically brought back the food I never even ordered. Their other solution was to remake my food--which, again, would require me to drive all the way back. To make the situation even more frustrating, the **"manager" I spoke with was not friendly or willing to work with the situation at all.** There was no attempt to understand that I don't live around the corner, no apology that made me feel like they actually cared about the inconvenience, and no reasonable alternative offered. It basically felt like, *bring the food back or too bad.* How exactly does that fix the situation for me? **I paid for food I never received.** Now, instead of coming home after being out since 8 AM and eating the dinner I already paid for, **I have to cook AND spend additional money on food because your restaurant messed up my order.** Two bean and cheese burritos and a menudo are not worth wasting another 40+ minutes of my time, plus gas, to correct **your mistake**. I already wasted 20-30 minutes waiting for the order in the first place. The last thing I should have to do is open every container before leaving to make sure your staff actually gave me what I paid for. **Your mistake should not become my responsibility, my extra drive, my extra gas, my wasted time, and my additional expense.** Mistakes happen--I understand that. What made this experience so upsetting was **how poorly the mistake was handled afterward.** A little understanding and willingness to work with a customer would have gone a long way. Instead, I'm home, hungry, **cooking lunch after I already PAID someone else to make lunch**, and out the money I spent on food I never received. Absolutely ridiculous and terrible customer service.

We were a large group so there were a few people rotating in and out to make our lunch special. The restaurant itself is beautiful. There is outdoor dining as well. Everything is well decorated and maintained. I would say very festive! There's live music on Sundays and Wednesdays. I would love to come back on a Wednesday for the Latin Jazz. The food was amazing! We felt like it was authentic and reasonable price point. For the table, they brought out lots of chips and salsa. It was nice and crispy and flavorful. Not spicy, though. I had ordered the Hacienda Carne Asada. It was a flamed broil skirt steak with a cheese enchilada, rice, beans, and guacamole. The beans came inside a fried tortilla bowl. OH MY! It was so good. I am embarrassed to say, I kept on eating and talking even though I was full. Overall, we had a great time! The food was delicious. The service was amazing. Ample parking. The price point was reasonable in this economy. You get plenty of food. Clean bathrooms. Look at their website for live entertainment schedule! I cannot wait to come back soon!

I'm rating them five stars for their pollo asado tacos, which are really good. At first glance an…read moreorder of two looks like it might not be enough, until you pick one up. The tortilla can't hold the generous helping of chicken, which has a great flavor. By the time I finished the second one, and all of the chicken, onion and cilantro that spilled from the tacos, I was full. (I'm a senior citizen and I eat less now than I used to, so YMMV). I like their chicken tacos a lot better than Sombrero's chicken taco a la plancha, which has been my go to for lunch for years. That said, my wife prefers the California burrito at Sombrero, since the one from Chuy's had more fries than meat. The pollo asado quesadilla was very filling and very tasty (plenty of meat). Chuy's is right next door to Funky Burgers, and given the fresh food aspect of Chuy's offerings, I'd say Chuy's is probably better for you.

They definitely get a lot of to go and order ahead business as a lot of people came in after us and the phone Rand constantly while we were waiting for our order. Once we tried our food I can see why it was so busy. I had the tequila lime shrimp burrito and subbed Serrano pepper for a bell pepper. It also came with grilled onions, delicious rice and other items. It didn't have salsa and didn't need it. The peppers were spicy and added a nice heat. So good. Family had pollo asado tacos with guacamole that could've used a little more placer, but the chicken was flavorful. Hubby tried shredded beef rolled tacos packed with meat and covered in cheese, sauce and guacamole. Hubby also had a surf and turf quesetaco with carne asada and shrimo. All of the food was delicious, made to order and piping hot. Kind of a whole in the wall and a hidden gem. Thanks for the heads up Yelpers.
