    Quesadilla carne asada taco is huge one is pretty filling, I usually one regular taco and one quesadilla taco and that's perfect

    Tacos here are some of the best in Tijuana hands down. Quesadilla tacos are huge one is good but two is more than enough. The regular tacos are pretty good too the serve them with beans inside the taco give a good flavor. My go to spot when I'm getting tacos.

    Quesadilla con carne :)

    Having grown in Tj, these tacos, ever since they were in their older location, have always been one of the favorites in my family. Something to keep in mind is that they only sell carne asada tacos which many may not like. However, they have no need to sell any other kind of tacos being that their carne asada alone is enough to draw a crowd and sell out before closing time. A thing to point out is that despite their popularity throughout the years, everyone at this taqueria always welcome you with a smile. Known mostly by locals, Tacos El Ruso are undoubtedly the best carne asada tacos in Tijuana! TIP: Get a carne asada quesadilla. You will not regret it. I promise! ********************************************************************************************************** Habiendo crecido en Tijuana por el area del Soler, estos tacos desde que estaban en su lugar anterior, siempre han sido uno de los favoritos para mi familia. El Ruso solo vende tacos de carne asada, cosa que a muchos puede no agradarles. Sin embargo, esta taqueria no tiene necesidad de vender tacos de ningun otro tipo, ya que los de carne asada son suficiente para llenar el lugar y hacer que se acabe la carne mucho antes de la hora de cerrar. Algo que cabe resaltar es que a pesar de su fama y demanda a lo largo de los años, el ruso y sus ayudantes siempre te reciben con una sonrisa, y te entretienen con platica y bromas mientras esperas. Y ahora si como dice el refran "zapatero a tus zapatos" - a lo que se dedican i.e., hacer tacos de carne asada, sin duda son los mejores!

    yes a 5 star everytime, I love this place! I've been coming here maybe 20 years now! yes they moved locations but the old location was in the same area. they make the meat and serve till they run out! so if you wanna make sure you get some, be there before 8p! the staff are awesome! from the owner to the rest of the family! the hand made tortillas are absolutely delicious! don't come here and expect to diet! that's not happening! get a quesadilla con carne with everything and enjoy it! the avocado is delicious and the Chile is delicious! again, love this place! get sentri and come down often, that's how I do it!

    Carne asada quesadilla

    This hole in the wall place is AMAZING!! Hand made corn tortillas make up these wonderful carne asada quesadillas! Fresh aguacate and a good tasting meat! You cannot go wrong here. Only downfall is if you come too late, they might be done for the night. They tend to sell-out and will end their night early when they do.

    Quesadilla de Asada their portions are huge I could only finish 2
