I HOPE SOMEONE FROM MANAGEMENT SEES THIS... WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON?!?…read more My son & I stop at least 1-2 times per week for breakfast burritos & we stop for lunch often as well, it has been very inconsistent. I keep thinking maybe the usual cook is on vacation on something, but it's only getting worse. When I was in a few days ago another couple were complaining about their order & they informed me that a when a certain gentleman is working they won't even order anymore because he is making the burrito's half the size they use to. Which is the problem we are having also. They raised the price to 15 dollars a burrito & most days they are coming out half the size they use to & with hardly any meat & mostly potatoes. I didn't the 15 which is ridiculous for a breakfast burrito, but I agree with the couple that was complaining, I'm not going to pay 15 for half the size, when I can go down the street & get two for 8 bucks. The food is so hot and miss also. I love the taquito's platter for lunch. One day I will order and it will be great & the next they are so burned & hard as rock I can't even chew them. THE LADY CASHIER IS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL...I DO HOPE MANAGEMENT SEES THIS & GET'S TRAINING ALL STAFF ON HOW TO BE CONSISTENT & HOW TO MAKE EVERYTHING CORRECTLY, SO YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR GOING TO GET EVERY TIME. I love to support small businesses/mom & pop places, but if a change doesn't happen, then I will take my business down the road.

Fantastic Find: Cocina de Ledezma…read more After a hike, I was on the hunt for some great local Mexican food and found La Cocina de Ledezma--what a gem! The food was incredible and tasted fresh. I tried three different tacos and a Quesabirria, each packed with great flavor. Their birria was especially impressive--it's hard to find good birria! To top it off, there's a coffee cart across the lot with refreshing drinks. I had a Lotus energy drink, and my girl had a spritzer--both hit the spot after a long day outdoors. The service was as amazing as the food. The brother at the register was super friendly, sharing how they prepare everything with care, and his sister in the truck was incredibly sweet and courteous. The two girls at the coffee cart were also lovely and added to the welcoming atmosphere. Though I live far, I'll definitely be coming back. If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by for delicious food and great service.

Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the experience. The birria and beans broth was watery and lacked the rich flavor you'd expect, the beans seemed watered down, and the rice was overcooked and bland. The homemade tortillas were the only highlight. Great ambiance, but the food needs improvement. I probably wouldn't return. Lo mejor de este lugar es el ambiente. Tiene un estilo de rancho mexicano muy bonito que te hace sentir como si estuvieras en México, comiendo entre árboles, gallinas y un entorno muy campirano. Desafortunadamente, la comida no estuvo a la altura de la experiencia. El consomé y la birria estaba muy aguado y sin el sabor tradicional que esperaba, los frijoles parecían rebajados con agua y el arroz estaba demasiado cocido y sin sabor. Lo único que realmente disfruté fueron las tortillas hechas a mano. El ambiente es excelente, pero la comida necesita mejorar. Probablemente no regresaría.

You will probably wanna sit in the bar because its cooling system is better than the restaurant if it's a warm day. They always have a daily special of some type of Mexican food. The Mexican food is always good sometimes great with nice size portions. Prices are reasonable, but not cheap. The House margarita is made well and reasonably priced. They have a good selection of beers with Mexican beers on tap. Service can be spotty. Because of the location, they always seem to have a sign out looking to hire someone and always are running short of staff. They work hard though, and we've never had an unacceptable wait to get drinks or food. This isn't the spot you'd go out of your way for, but looking for something that might be convenient as you're heading out to the casinos near Valley Center it works.

I've always passed by when at Harrah's but have never thought to stop by. I got tired of the…read moreoverpriced food options at Harrah's and decided to read up on the reviews and wanted to give them a try. I was a bit skeptical about the reviews and people not knowing good Mexican food especially due to the location. I come from close to the border so I'm familiar with all the hole in the wall spots in the hood! The prices were average and what I'm used to at my local taco shops. Boy was I wrong and I am sooo glad I tried. I have been missing out! I love Mexican food and I'm mad I never tried them out sooner before overpaying for franchised typical American foods at the food court at Harrah's! It's small and quant inside with a salsa bar! I love salsa bars especially since a lot of places tend to be greedy with hot sauces. The huge plus for me was free hot carrots! I'm used to paying extra for that. Also in their salsa bar they have extra pico de gallo! What?! That's usually an extra cost too! They had 2 types of red and green sauces. I'm opinionated on how I feel that hot sauces make up a good taco shop. They were fire!!! All good, flavorful, and spicy the way I like it! My favorite was the dark red one and the creamy green one. All were spicy though in a good way! We ordered cheese quesadilla, cali supreme burrito, and el jefe rolled tacos. Can't go wrong with cheese quesadilla it's so simple and so delicious. I noticed the cali supreme burrito didn't come with pico but good thing they had the extra on the side because it was added onto every bite. My husband and son loved it. I freaking loved my el jefe rolled tacos! You don't even know how surprised I was and blown away at how amazing they were! They included all the toppings such as lettuce, pico, sour cream, guac, cheese, and the nail in the coffin was the carne on top! They didn't skimp out on anything! The flavoring was there, the hot sauces were bomb, the hot carrots, perfection! It's always going to be a must stop every time I go to Harrah's now!
