From the service & the flavor of the tacos it's just different & it shouldn't be, at least the flavor shouldn't. We came here a couple times instead of the other one due to it being closer to the Casino. Both times were ok, the Carne Asada & Adobada tacos were pretty much the same in both locations, real good. But the other meats weren't, the Tripa, Cabeza, Birria tasted bland & not freshly made. Also the customer service was not as good as the other location, workers here look sad & they were not too attentive & were kind of slow. At the other place they were fast, active & happy, the vibe at the other location was just better. Don't get me wrong I still come here if I'm near the casino & it's late but I'd only get the Asada & Adobada & maybe bring the workers a Red Bull :)

I still remember the tacos al vapor from those days--they were unforgettable! This was my first time back in over 30 years, and while the location is new to me, the restaurant itself continues its long tradition of incredible food. The flavors are just as amazing as I remembered, and the quality is still top-notch. The carne asada is also absolutely delicious! There's even still a taco stand on Avenida Revolución, close to the old location, which brought back a lot of memories. I stopped here before heading back across the border to the USA, and it was the perfect way to end my trip. Café La Especial will always be one of my must-stop places whenever I'm in Tijuana!

Been…read morecoming here for years now & one of the main reasons why I come to TJ & my favorite restaurant in TJ. The customer service is always good from the hostess, waiters & cooks they are all very attentive, fast & friendly. The place is very clean & has a good vibe to it as they play good calm Mexican music as you eat. Portions are very generous & prices are very affordable & it's very family oriented. The food, well everything I've eaten here has been great & I've eaten almost everything here no lie. Now if you can eat like a real man like me than get the Tablita, it's over 2lbs of meat, 2 people can share this, I rather not, I finish it myself. Now for regular men the Carne Asada plate is very good & filling as is the Milanesa & T-Bone steak plate. For the ladies I recommend the Filete steak, it's very soft & tender & the enchiladas are fire just how your Nana Consuelo from Oaxaca makes them. Now you have to start with a taco or two De Vapor, best tacos De vapor I ever had in my VIDA (for my white friends that means LIFE) they are truly orgasmic I think I blushed when I bit into one. Also get a little cup of bean soup it's really good or the vegetable soup which taste like Caldo De Res without the Res only veggies, the broth is amazing. And if you ain't full yet don't leave without a slice of real Mexican Flan, it's delicious. So over all this was an easy 5 stars. I love coming here, I look forward to coming here & get excited to come here. In a city like TJ where there is a lot of good Mexican restaurants this to me is one of the best & I highly recommend this restaurant. Keep up the great work amigos & I'll see you soon!

Well, since I finally was able to go with him on a food tour, we obviously had to stop here. Got the costilla (rib) and arrachera (skirt steak) tacos with cheese. Love how they don't skimp at all on toppings as you can put as much salsa or guacamole as your heart desires. Anyways, I get it now. These tacos were AMAZING. They were bursting with flavor and juiciness. I would eat these every damn day if I lived down in Tijuana. Service is pretty good. They don't really speak English, but they are very friendly and honestly it's not very hard to figure out what the menu says. Just use Google Translate and point at what you want! Absolutely worth the trip, definitely want to come back again!

I'd had the adobada, carne asada and lengua, all of them wonderful and memorable. I came again a few months ago and they are still as tasty as I remembered. I've tried a few other taco places and so far nothing compares. I love that the adobada is nice and crisp. The tacos have so much flavor, I love them! Service is wonderful. Tacos are made fast and paying could not be easier. The prices are fantastic as well. I love this place!

The shop was located south and east of the main drag in the Madero neighborhood (not Zona Centro per Yelp). If you elected to take a cab instead of walking, the fare was about eight US dollars to get there from the famous arch on Av Revolucion. The waiter for our table was bilingually fluent so it was quick and easy to place orders. I picked three tacos for my meal... an adobada (al pastor), a suadero, and a carne asada. The braised and stewed meat of the suadero cut was juicy and tender. You can never go wrong with freshly sliced pork from a rotating spit for an adobada taco either. The pineapple slice added to the top of the al pastor was larger than any I have seen in the SD area. The cost was about five bucks to chow on three street size tacos. Cheap Mexican street food of decent quality is what keeps me returning periodically to TJ with different group of friends.

We had a couple hours in between activities, and this restaurant was near our hotel so we decided to give it a shot. Really glad we did. First of all, these are unique tacos. Not your typical "street" kind, they have interesting combinations of ingredients. I asked the waiter what their most popular taco was, and he recommended the Murat, which includes shrimp, steak, crunchy cheese, mushrooms, avocado, and sauce. They offer corn or flour tortillas, the corn is a little bit cheaper. That taco really blew my mind. Layers of different flavors, all balanced perfectly. The shrimp were fresh and meaty, the steak cooked perfectly. The sauce wasn't too heavy. The cheese was a nice complement, kind of a thin layer that appeared to be grilled. It was nice and gooey. I got another taco, I forget which one it was exactly but it was also very good. I also got a chicken mulita that was excellent. My girlfriend got two carne asada tacos that she enjoyed. I had a lemon water that was light and refreshing. They also gave us five different salsas on the side. I tried the salsa verde and it was nice. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxing. There is sort of an American theme going on, they played like four Michael Jackson songs while we were there. A couple other hits that I recognized. Service was friendly and helpful, the waiter was nice enough to speak English to me (I need to learn Spanish). They have English and Spanish menus. Four tacos, a mulita, and a drink cost 203 pesos, which is roughly 11 bucks. Obviously it is a different economy, but an amazing deal nonetheless. Very nice restaurant with great food, I recommend it.
