I came here last year on a trip to Carlsbad, and it was great so I came back again! I ordered the…read moreCalifornia burrito with carne asada, which is what I ordered last time as well. The burrito comes with all the fixings - protein, guacamole, cheese, fries, and salsa. Incredibly heavy, but it is the best burrito I have ever had. The service is great. The cashier lady especially was very helpful and kind. Good ambiance, got to watch the World Cup on their tv. Restrooms are clean as well.

We were excited to try this spot, but unfortunately didn't get the chance this time…read more We walked in with the intention of ordering and waited at the register while there were only two tables occupied (about 8 guests total), and we were the only people waiting to order. After a few minutes, we were told "one second," which was totally understandable, but after waiting another 5 minutes (~300 seconds ) with multiple opportunities to acknowledge or take our order, we decided to leave. Could've just been an off moment or staffing issue, so I'm not writing them off completely and may give them another try down the road, but the first impression wasn't great.

Came here after reading the reviews on yelp and was not disappointed! Food was tasty, you can order…read moreit at the bar with your drinks or just head straight to the food truck inside. I loved the bean and cheese burrito, the asada tacos were greasy and I would avoid them. Fish tacos were good. They do charge extra for the sauces and I found most weirdly sweet. The Habanero one was good. Now for the best part: the drinks here rock! Note that they make extra strong drinks and I was happy after just one spicy margarita. Service is friendly and they do have a dog friendly patio. I will definitely be back when I'm visiting Oceanside next time.

Sancho's is the hands-down winner of my O-side taco tour. I compared Carne Asada and fish tacos…read moreand black beans & rice at two competing taco shops. Sancho's OG beef was lean & tender, nicely seasoned and not buried in onions. Grilled fish was adequate, but not distinguished. Next time, I will try batter-fried fish. Corn tortillas were big enough to hold a generous portion. Crema sauce on both was rich and tangy. Atmosphere was surprisingly boozy at 7pm on a Thursday. Frat party loud. I was alone and focused on the food, so no harm, no foul. But would have been disappointing if I was there to chat with a friend or a date. I will definitely be back next time in Oceanside.

I cannot say enough nice things about Pedro and his incredible staff!…read more The food is amazing, the ambience is classic and welcoming, the cocktails are wonderful and refreshing! I recently held a brunch for 60 people at Marieta's and all of our guests have sent messages as to how delicious the food was. Great service, Great food, Great ambiance!!! Thank you, Pedro!!

My wife came here on a Friday afternoon (after 3pm) with some friends. She said the chips & salsa…read morewere good. She also ordered a large house margarita and some potato roll tacos. Everyone said their food was good and the margs were good. Interestingly, when ordering the margarita, they did mention that they use a sour mix but could make the margaritas from scratch if they wanted. Not sure if there's a price difference, but I would love to order both just to see. Note: the menus do not have drink prices for some reason, so I attached a receipt. The "Cadillac" Margarita was $20. Also, they do NOT have happy hour.

Mi Asador is an absolute hidden gem. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the pride and care…read morethat goes into everything they do. It's a true family-style operation--one owner personally takes your order while the other is in the kitchen cooking everything fresh, and you can taste that attention to detail in every bite. The food is outstanding--full of flavor, generous portions, and very reasonably priced. It's the kind of place where you know you're getting authentic, homemade quality, not something rushed or generic. On top of that, the service is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant itself is clean and well-kept. It's rare to find a spot that checks all the boxes like this. If you're anywhere nearby and even thinking about Mexican food--do yourself a favor and come try Mi Asador. You'll be glad you did!

Haven't been back here in a long time. We stopped coming when one time we noticed the burrito…read moresizes were half the size they used to be and they removed the salsa bar (this was post COVID). Since then we've been visiting other burrito places, but decided to give them another shot. We were pleasantly surprised to see things were "back to normal". Burritos were big again and the salsa bar was back. Chips were no longer free (I remember they used to be a long time ago), but no biggie. We were just picked up to-go. The burritos were good. Not great, necessarily, but good and the prices are some of the best around. They have a ton of options, and lots of drinks, including beer. We were just picking up, and it was a very hot day. The restaurant didn't have any air-conditioning so it was quite warm inside. Most people were eating outside. We'll be back again to try some other menu items given that their prices are generally pretty good.

Tried carne asada, pastor, cabeza, and carnitas tacos. All meats were extremely flavorful and they…read moredid not skimp out on loading up the tacos. Pro tip is to load up on the salsas and pickled veggies they have. All of the salsas are absolutely amazing. I tried every single one and could not even pick a favorite because they were so good. The pickled veggies are amazing too especially the carrots. Tacos came out pretty quick which was nice and the restaurant was generally clean!

This is my first time trying out Los Tacos. I picked up a…read morePorko Verde burrito to go. It was amazing. Great flavor and big. Two meals for me. The meat was perfectly cooked and the tortilla was fresh and soft, yet held together perfectly. I look forward to trying out other items in the future. I would definitely recommend this place.

Even with its decent size i couldn't help but finish it lol. Solid chips and salsa as well

SUCH a great spot!!!…read more You order at the counter, and then find a seat somewhere. They may bring it to you, or you can wait for it. The tacos are fantastic!! Excellent. Love them!!! The service is good, too. And there are nice drink options (I can't have gluten, but I still found an alcoholic drink to have). It can get a bit loud inside when it's crowded, so I like to sit outside and people watch.

Low quality ingredients…read more I had the Carne Asada Nachos and I'd say that Taco Bell makes a better Nacho meal. That's extremely sad. The cut of "skirt steak", if you want to call it that, was extremely tiny pieces of diced "steak". The steak was cut smaller than pico de gallo. Tiny. If I had to guess, it probably came with a 1/4 cup of beef on the entire nacho plate. It was quite pathetic. $17 with a coke. AVOID!!!

This is by far one of my favorite places for Mexican food in SoCal. As a Cali Native now living in…read morethe great state of Texas, sometimes it's refreshing to step outside the land of Tex‑Mex and get the real deal again. Colima's hits that spot every single time. When you walk in, the person behind the counter greets you immediately -- and not the dry "hi, what can I get you?" type of greeting. You get a full "¡Buenos días, mija!" with that warm, almost‑grito energy that makes you feel like you just walked into your tío's spot instead of a restaurant. Super friendly, super natural, and very SoCal. I ordered the rolled tacos plate and wow... esa porción estaba gigante. I couldn't finish it. What I loved most was the meat; this is what meat is supposed to taste like. The beef was seasoned the way we grew up eating it: a little salty, a little savory, with that slow‑cooked tenderness that lets you know it didn't come from some pre‑bagged, mystery‑meat situation. You get hints of garlic, a little cumin, and that warm, almost toasty flavor that comes from meat that's actually been browned, not steamed. It tasted like someone's abuela was in the back saying, "No, no, déjalo dorar un poquito más. And the corn tortillas? Perfect. Thin enough to get that crisp roll, thick enough not to shatter. None of that flour‑tortilla‑trying‑to‑be‑crispy nonsense. These were crunchy, flavorful, and loaded. The toppings were just as good. The guacamole tasted fresh. You could taste the real avocado which was creamy, a little chunky, with lime that actually tasted like lime and not concentrate. The red salsa had a legit kick to it. It had hints of roasted chiles, was smoky and had a slightly bitter edge that tells you they actually roasted them instead of just tossing raw peppers into a blender. It wasn't tourist spicy; it was SoCal Mexican‑restaurant spicy, which is a whole different category. My partner ordered a breakfast burrito and honestly? That thing could've fed three people. It was massive, stuffed to the brim with cheese, egg, potatoes, and fresh bacon and exactly what a SoCal breakfast burrito should be: simple, hearty, and no shortcuts. Between the portions, the flavor, and the service that feels like home, this spot stays on my list every time I'm in Oceanside. If you're craving real Mexican food and not Tex‑Mex, pull up. You'll leave full and happy. #supportlocal

A monster, heavy and filled with eggs, bacon, potato and cheese. Tasty and filling. This is just half. A little pricey as everything is these days, but you can split this burrito. Ask for extra salsa (red) for me because I used 2 easily on just half. Will be back again, just like old times.
