$13 for the smallest breakfast burrito I've ever been served. I live upstairs from this place and the burrito was lukewarm by the time I got it to my place...2 minutes after leaving the shop. We also ordered our food before the other couple who came in after us, and their burritos were ready before ours! WTF?!? When I called to complain, the employee said I was the only person who ever complained about the size of the burritos...and yet he was also probably curious why THERE WERE ONLY TWO OTHER PEOPLE in the restaurant on a Sunday at lunch time. LOL. What a joke of a "Mexican" shop. Salsas were also watered down and bland...a good sign that these guys are trying to pass off weak food to simply make a buck and that's it. They are relying on Padres traffic to drive sales and don't give a damn about the community around this place. There is a deli with affordable prices and HUGE, delicious servings two blocks up. RUN, DON'T WALK, AWAY FROM VEGA. read more

This Mexican "deli" is conveniently located next to Petco Park. The prices were decent. They have QR code menus on the table or you could order at the counter. It's a very casual place with sports a theme, of course. The food was delicious! At our table of six we tried five meals. Our entire party was extremely satisfied. We had carne asada burritos, California burrito, carnitas burrito, veggie burrito and a plate of nachos. They sell beer. Good size burritos, excellent tortillas! We will be back! It was a bit warm. They had ceiling fans but could have used the AC. read more

One of the best places in East Village to get an ice cold beer. Frozen mugs and friendly staff across the street from Petco

this used to be Lolita's, and I haven't been back since then ... definitely regret for not coming back and trying this place sooner! perfect spot for some delicious mexican food and watching the game. they serve drinks too! only downside is they close pretty early at 8 pm. read more

The food was great! Cashier was friendly. Placed order and server brought food to our table promptly. Love all the Padres decor and tv screens so you can catch the game and any pre or post game shows. Great spot to visit before the game. read more

I've never left a review anywhere and I'm glad this place is my first one ever! The food is amazing I asked for a breakfast burrito and I asked the guy if he could toast my tortilla and add beans and he said "Hell yea!" lol the burrito was perfect the green salsa was even better! Also the burrito wasn't too small and not too big either but I mean for 13 bucks I didn't expect anything crazy. Anyway 10/10 service the guy was hella chill and was bumping reggaeton! Also a huge padre fan and they are right next to the stadium! so I'll definitely be coming here to pregame before the games oh yea and 6 dollar beers it's a no brainer. read more

Vega Caffe Mexican Deli - Breakfast burrito add beans and toasted tortilla! - Mexican Near Me - San Diego, California

Carne asada is always a little too burnt! I come here cause it's close to work (padres) EVEN though they never give me that discount. They give everyone else their discount but not me. I don't say anything cause it's minimal but I tip and I'll stop doing that cause this place also is SUPPPPER HOT INSIDE. You will sweat inside this joint. Not the friendly staff, good music and they play the Padres game at times unless their service gets cut off (they must have an old system or they don't pay their cable bill) I ain't coming here no more, the Mediterranean food at NICK THE GREEK IS FIRE and worth the price. You will pay $20 (with tip) for a fountain drink and 3 mini asada tacos. You order at the counter they don't take your order at the table. Eh place. 2.5 stars honestly. Food is okay and price is too high. You can say "thank you" "hello" they will just ignore you and be rude. I don't support places like this. No class read more

Vega Caffe Mexican Deli - 3 mini asada tacos - eleven doll hairs! Booo! - Mexican Near Me - San Diego, California

I had a great experience. From the moment I walked in, the staff was friendly and welcoming, which made a big difference. They took the time to offer helpful suggestions from the menu, which I really appreciated--it's always nice when people are genuinely enthusiastic about what they serve. The food was delicious. Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared, which made the meal even more enjoyable. The ambiance was warm and family-oriented, making it a comfortable place for people of all ages to relax and enjoy a meal together. read more

Love this location and whenever I come here, the owners and staff are extremely nice, and the food is always good. This location is right across from the ballpark and has been opened for a few months now. The food portions are very large and can often be shared. They make everything fresh, including juices and smoothies. They have a breakfast and lunch/ dinner menu. I have had the carne asada nachos, which I really enjoyed, and get a half order because it's so big. Full order is definitely enough for 2 people to share. I love that they are a touch spicy but not too much. The tirtas are good too, and can are pretty large. The Cubana is my favorite but the asada is good as well. The tortilla soup is something good to grab when you want something to warm you up, I add chicken to it since it doesn't come with it. They also have a few desserts and salads which I've heard good things about but haven't had a chance to try yet. I can say I have not had a bad meal here, and would recommend you check it out if you are in the area or before a game. Since the at are so new I don't know if they have their liquor license yet but I know it was in process. read more

Not bad, but not great. I got the chicken nachos, it had VERY little cheese, and the toppings were only on the top and I ended up with a plate of empty plain chips with nothing on them once the top layer was eaten. My coworker got carne asada quesadilla and a chicken taco. He said his was good and the taco looked worth the $4.50. I'd try a burrito next. read more

The legendary rolled tacos never disappoint... They are the best rolled tacos I've ever had and consistently every time I come.

They were so rude. Bad food. Too much water in drinks. Didn't let me use the rest room.

This place took over where a former Mexican restaurant was across from Petco Park. I really went in with low expectations - but it far exceeded it. The ordering was a bit confusing at first (we sat at the bar and were unsure if we still ordered from the window), but got it figured out. Menu on line was different than at the place itself (much more options in person). Had some really good food - tacos - and some good drink prices. We spoke with the owner who was very nice. I would definitely recommend this place. read more

Cheap, fast and good. very hard to find 3 combinations. Check it out the ceveche when you are there this place first responders friendly there dine in for free read more

This place is amazing. I like to pre-game here because the beer is only $5 and the food is so good. It's the perfect spot to eat and drink before heading to the ballpark--especially since stadium prices are crazy. Don't get me wrong, I know we gotta support the players' salaries, but I'd rather get more bang for my buck. When you stop by, make sure to order the torta or tacos--both are . And the hospitality? Top notch. They make you feel right at home. Highly recommend this spot! read more

This place is amazing. They have a bit of everything that I usually crave for specially their fruit salads. No more having to drive to get one. Their carne asada chips and fries are super good. They are very friendly and accommodate your order as needed. I really enjoy it and if I want a good decent torta this is also my go to. read more

Tried this place for the first time after reading the reviews! Ordered their chicken torta and #2 combination plate which consisted: chile relleno, cheese enchilada and rice. Very chill and calm atmosphere, especially considering it being right next to Petco Park. Staff were friendly and casual! The food however, was not a vibe for us. The chicken torta lacked flavor and was pretty much a normal chicken sandwich. The enchiladas were severely undercooked, which the sauce was cold, no melting cheese (my favorite part of it). I was confused when that piece of my plate was cold while my chile relleno was super hot. We definitely want to give this place another try, maybe their burritos and tacos are their specialty? 1 star for service 1 star for cleanliness read more

Vega Caffe Mexican Deli - Surf & Turf Fries Breakfast Burrito - Mexican Near Me - San Diego, California

When this place first opened, it was great. When we visited a couple of months later, the food were ordered was approaching disaster level. Ordered carne asada fries and they were served with melted, cafeteria grade, nacho cheese sauce. It was inedible. Any self respected Mexican food establishment would never, and I mean never, use nacho cheese sauce instead of freshly grated cheese w a bit of cotija. Even store bought shredded cheese would have been better. It was a similar experience with the other items served. Please, please, please go back to how you were when you opened or at least switch up to "authentic ingredients". read more

My go to spot for potato rolled tacos & veggie burritos! Cool spot to watch the game too. Much love!

I had chicken enchiladas, which were good. My friend also enjoyed her carne asada torta. It's a nice place with a great staff. They have a very extensive menu, and I would go back. read more

I love the variety of food and drink options they have. Though their fare includes yummy Mexican, you can also have a sandwich, or enjoy a nonalcoholic beverage and hang out with your friends. Food is delicious and fresh. I like coming here before a game. Service is courteous and efficient. Remember a few minutes wait for good hot food is worth it. read more

I come here often because I live nearby, and it's easily one of my favorite local spots. The food is consistently great, especially the chilaquiles and the rolled tacos, which are my go-to. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the service is just as reliable as the food. It's one of those places you keep coming back to because they always get it right. read more

Stopped by after comic con and this place was so tasty! They have a lot of great veggie options and the strawberry banana smoothie was superb.

I am a Padres season ticket holder so when I heard Lolita's was shutting down I was like well damn. I loved getting takeout and going straight into the park.

I would definitely recommend! read more
