    Perrones
    Sofia V.

    My #1 absolute fave flour tortilla carne asada taco. These tacos are grilled over oak wood logs for added flavor. They are HUGE once will do it for most but I order two. They call or it a perrone which is a flour tortillas with melted cheese, asada, pinto beans, cilantro, onions, and guacamole taco. Their roasted jalapeños are such a great add. The salsa is on the spicer side but oh so tasty.

    Yes - the line is long. Yes - you should wait. Yes - it is worth every bite! I was brought here by a friend. We came on Thursday at around 3:00. The line was ok not too intimidating. However, everyone in line said, the line is usually very, very long. We chatted about what we would eat and I was told to try the original Perron - which I did. Oh my gosh! It was excellent. I also ordered a Mexican coke which I don't normally do and it went great with the taco. They are on the larger side but I happily ate two. This is a cash only place. Its kind of on the honor system. You place your order on one side for tacos and on the other side for drinks. You then go to the middle to tell the cashier what you ordered. There are plenty of tables and also standing bar tables. The bathrooms are also clean and kept up. So, yes - wait in the line.

    Open fire grill and you can smell it down the street.

    We make sure to stop by every time we visit Rosarito. The tacos are flavorful, open-fire grilled meat packed into tortillas that don't fall apart, even with the generous portions. The outdoor setup is clean, casual, and well-managed. There's a mix of shaded and sunny spots, with both standing and sitting tables. It's located on a corner with good foot and car traffic, and even though parking is limited, we always manage to find street parking nearby. The staff is professional, bilingual, and super attentive to keeping things organized and clean. Ordering is easy: tell the chef what you want, then pay in a second line. Signs are posted all over in both English and Spanish, which makes it very visitor friendly. They accept cash only (USD or pesos), and drinks are simple canned sodas and bottled juices. They only have carne asada tacos, which are the best. This place has us braving the border wait ... TLDR: If you're in Rosarito, this is the taco spot you don't want to miss. It's always worth the stop!

    On vacation and first time visiting Rosarito and Tacos El Yaqui was top of our list to visit! It did not disappoint at all service is efficient and food is delicious! Home made flour tortillas were amazing and make me feel like I'm at home. The restaurant is outdoors but the ocean breeze and good food make for a perfect place to eat.

    I really liked the tacos but the line to order was off putting . Took 40 mins to order and I was hot and tired and over it by the time I got to the front Enjoyed the food , definitely good tacos but not worth the wait

    Taco al perron
    Jennifer J.

    Hard to find parking, but totally worth it. There was a little line when we got here but it went quick. The smell of the wood fire is amazing. This is like the In n Out of tacos. They have three options: meat n cheese, meat only or cheese only. Tacos are served on flour tortillas with onion, cilantro and guacamole. This was a great find and we will be back for sure.

    Perron

    We drove straight here after landing a the Tijuana airport. The line was very long and moved very slowly. The only good thing is that you get your food when you order. It takes long when you have a couple that takes 20 tacos to-go for others. We all ordered their "Perron." It came with skirt steak, beans, cheese, onions, cilantro, salsa and guacamole all inside a big flour tortilla. These tacos are massive. Even if you have a big appetite, two is more than enough. I had planned on eating a bigger meal after this little "snack" so we all ordered one taco each. The arrachera was very good. Very tender and went perfectly with the beans and the guac. Although I'm hesitant in actually calling this a taco. I guess we can get into the whole is a hot dog a sandwich debate, but this Perron has melted cheese, so is it a quesadilla? It honestly taste more like a burrito, but just open. Regardless of what it actually, it's bomb and definitely worth the wait. Next time I'll get two for sure.

    Best tacos I'ver tried in Rosarito and they are estilo Sonora ‍
