    This is the spot !!! Tacos are amazing and so tasty. When I'm Tijuana ... this is the spot to go

    The food here was excellent. The service was great, and they had very clean bathrooms. my Spanish isn't too good, but they had one woman there who spoke some English. You order and then eat then pay which was cool. Overall very satisfied. The only con was there's a lot of flies. But this isn't a fine dining restaurant, it's more of a taco stand with good seating and clean bathrooms.

    I love tacos! However I don't eat just about any taco. That been said I will share my thoughts on this establishment tacos! I usually go to tacos El Gallo down the street and since they were in the process of moving across the street I came to their other location which is called El Gallito. I ordered two al pastor tacos and after I finished them I ordered one tripa taco and one suadero. The al pastor was good but I thought that the marinade was a little strong to my taste, the tripa and suadero were very good on my opinion. They have radishes, napkins, lemons and all the fixings on separate bags to your convenience. The taqueros are very friendly and courteous. Good tacos at affordable prices accompanied by great service. I fully recommend this establishment!

    Tacos Al Pastor!

    This place was amazing! Never have I tasted Al Pastor Tacos just BURSTING with FLAVOR! Definitely will be a regular spot everytime I come down to visit with my family. Tortillas are made Fresh too! Don't overlook this place. It's DEFINITELY worth a try. I am GLAD I got the chance to eat here before leaving back home!

    Chile relleno taco with adobada
    Mina N.

    Amazing tacos, particularly their adobada. We typically get their chile relleno with adobada taco... But even their chicken tacos were amazing, as it has nopales, boiled beans, and cheese on it! Definitely now one of our fav taco joints. We found this joint because it was recommended on Mark Wein's YouTube video on the best TJ tacos. And he was right... It was delish!

    I love their Tacos but what I like the most is their Chile Relleno tacos and burritos (rice, beans, chile relleno) and their Hot Flaming Hot Cheeto! they are sooo good! BOMB! I'm always finding myself ordering from their by Ubereats lol cause I want to sit at home and enjoy those tacos and burritos of Chiles rellenos lol also their so close to home so why not right?

    After trying the place up the street, I almost didn't come here. (The other place was great!). Glad I did. Tacos El Gallito is every bit as good. Tried a few tacos, and of course a Fanta. The salsa they make is excellent, and not so spicy that you'd regret it. Everything is prepared fresh. No trouble with language, and folks are very friendly. There were maybe 25 people eating there, and I'm not surprised a bit, even on a Sunday. The photo attached is of the Adobada. Delish.

    Food was ok , but charging for 2 corn tortillas just like if you had bought a pack too jintzzy.

    Tacos are so good. This taco shop is right by the otay border crossing. If you are going through Otay you have to stop & get some taquitos. They have adobada, asada, tripas, pollo, mulas everything you need/want & more.

    Order anything on this menu at this cart only.

    I think this is one of the best taco spots in Tijuana. Incredible sauces and hand made tortillas

    Tacos de tripa con todo. Un poco cara para lo que es en donde está pero está abierto toda la…read morenoche. el ambiente y el servicio no fue nada fuera de este mundo o especial, pero ni modo. está bien y la comida está buena. Mejores precios que el norte pero es lo que es cuando estás comiendo tarde y noche. Came in to kill some time before a picking up a flight arrival at the airport nearby. Ordered 4 asada, 2 tripe tacos a coke and horchata between my brother and I it was $20 even. Considering the location and the open late felt a little more than what I'm used to spending, but the food was good. The service was mediocre, but good considering they're open "all night" I'm sure the crew was tired and not in the friendliest of moods. It seems They heat up everything with pig fat and well pig, pork, swine is not part of my diet, Especially the lard! The ambience is better than a lot of tacos places in Tijuana so you'll feel pretty much at home if you're visiting from the states.

    Super good. I was able to walk here from Grand View Hospital. It's a safe neighborhood. Was able to…read moreorder 2 beef tacos with cheese, cilantro, & guacamole in enough broken Spanish and his broken English that it was correct and he was very kind. Best corn tortillas I've ever had! Fresh cilantro and guacamole! Beef was tender too!

    Tacos El Gordo - 1 Suadero and 1 Tripa taco with of course a Mexican Coke to wash it down. Hands down some of the best tacos I've had in a long time.
