Serious EatsSeptember 26, 2013Go to this Gaslamp Quarter bar during happy hour (3 p.m. to 7 p.m. daily) for half-price drinks and appetizers (including carne asada fries).
Lydia BerkennouJanuary 27, 2015This Mexican restaurant is simply amazing. The food is nice, eat and drink at the bar to make most of it. Craft beers are refreshing while the tacos tickles your tongue
DanaJanuary 20, 2016Yes! finally a mouth watering meal.. Serf N' Turf tacos come with a small portion of beans & rice pretty damn good. $10.00 plate.. #shrimp #avocado #tacos
KATIE GAugust 31, 2019A cool spot in the otherwise-touristy Gaslamp Quarter. Recharge with a margarita (lots to choose from) and a Cali burrito. Mix & match tacos lets you sample several types if you're indecisive like me.
Kelly WeaverAugust 4, 2023I suspect everything is good by the looks of what was coming. out of the kitchen, but the carne asada burrito was great. Opted for the half & half sauce, both were good but the green sauce was my fav
Greg BakerMay 23, 2014It was awesome. I had the surf & turf burrito, frozen house margarita and was easily convinced by our dime of a waitress to try the frozen mojito. Everything was great! I'd go again for sure!
Neil IsaksonOctober 15, 2018Try the California burrito with rice on the side and red and white sauce in top! You can’t beat the salsa and chips beforehand!- ElisaAugust 20, 2018Didnt have to wait too long for a table of 4. Fun vibes. Get the Whole Lotta Love Margherita. Tacos and burritos are great.
ShawnJanuary 1, 2015Go for taco Tuesday. The Tecate beer is cheap, but the margaritas are worth the extra cost. The street tacos are amazing and the hot dog they make is great, especially for $2.
TolgaFebruary 20, 2016We ate California burritos and it is very tasty! Love it!! Definitely try to come again here ... service was good and fast. You Should take jalapeno pickles as Side. 8,4/10
Dan FetznerJune 28, 2016Spicy marg was legit and the fried cheese was on point. Was there to grab food around midnight on a Thursday and it was more of a bar scene, the music was definitely too loud but still enjoyed overall- MiKe McDonoughOctober 8, 2017One of the 10 best taco spots in the US... No joke, best taco joint ever. Only complaint, the music's a bit loud.
- ShawnDecember 11, 2014Amazing taco Tuesday! Try the hot dog as well - it was awesome. Any of the tacos were great - $2. $2 Tecate was OK - but spend the money for the margaritas instead!
Come during happy hour (3-7) to get some great deals on some of the best Mexican you'll eat outside of Mexico! The Guacamole is amazing, and they have a HUGE tequila menu.
Best happy hour in the Gaslamp. We come here 2-3 times a week. Nicole and Devin (a.k.a Devil) are the best servers. You definitely get your money's worth here!!
Brian MercadoJuly 29, 2015I enjoy coming here for brunch or a late night with friends. Food is always fresh and delicious. Great selection on drinks and tequila. Gets crowded on weekends.
Matthew TaubApril 8, 2017Carne asada and carnitas are the way to go. Also don't miss the chips and guacamole. Happy hour from 3-7 is half off ALL drinks and apps.
Γρηγόρης ΚοντόςJuly 11, 2017Buritos were the sheeeeettt!!! Frozen mojitos & margaritas awesome, esp @ happy hour!!! Be prepared for long queues if there is a convention in town
George OetomoJanuary 2, 2016Whatever i ordered turned out soo good, guacamole, taco, margarita etc. Awesome choices of tequilas n beers.
Nik AndresenJuly 24, 2013Cool place with some solid tequila drinks. Had their popular margarita on the rocks and purple haze (frozen marg + sangria mix) - both killer. Reeeeally nice bar.
Alevtina BorisovaDecember 31, 2018The food’s pretty good. Tried Carnitas California and several types of tacos. Everything was great!
Max WennekerOctober 8, 2017Burritos and drinks are great. Recommend getting there early for dinner, at 6 on a Saturday it was a 45 minute wait already.
Amara OmoregieJuly 5, 2012Carne Asada fries are a must! Especially during Happy Hour! They are 50% off, and so are their amazing margaritas! It took three of us girls to finish it! Soooo good :)
Megan PaskasOctober 22, 2013Quesadilla is huge and amazing!!! Everything we tried here was great! Cone during happy hour and get half price drinks! ANYthing from the bar!
Amy MacDonaldNovember 14, 2016Veg burrito with chipotle sauce is fantastic. Great margaritas. Took a while to get a table but worth the wait.
Favorite place in Gaslamp. Excellent happy hour deals, decent beer choices and carne asada quesadilla is delicious.
Emre GünerJanuary 20, 2016We came here with the high recommendations, Drinks are very good, I like the strawberry Margarita, but food especially tacos was overall disappointing.- VickiJanuary 3, 2016Best tacos and Tj dawgs in town. Best service ever. Never any complains. They know how to do taco Tuesday the right way.
The FeastJune 8, 2011Skip the sugar headache and order a fresh-squeezed margarita to go with your carne asada fries. 1/2 off apps and drinks from 3-7 p.m., plus late night happy hour kicks off at 10 p.m.
Tom SedlacekJune 30, 2016Holy krap! Best margarita ever and the street tacos are the best... And that's saying something from me..!
Sarah GSeptember 22, 2017Great happy hour on taco tuesday and right next to the airport if you need to catch a flight!- Mila KovalevaJune 3, 2013This place is great for happy hour! Bomb drink and food specials too. My favorite is the Cadillac margarita and the carne asada fries.
Even though I don't drink..anymore..make sure you Get the Dirty Red!! Strawberry frozen mojito and the surf and turf burrito with RED sauce!!! The I.$.H. Special :)
Merve E. H.August 15, 2018We had to wait to sit and order because we did not have a reservation. Food is delicious.
Marcel CrudeleJune 26, 2019Margaritas are quite good and it has a nice atmosphere and decent bar. The tacos were good, but didn't blow me away.
Ben MorrowApril 29, 2020Best place for margaritas and tacos. Often running specials. Usually busy because people know what's up.
Justin LisenbyAugust 29, 2023Awesome Mexican food. The chips are handmade and super fresh. Love the 1 pound burritos.
BrittanyDecember 25, 2014The queso fundido is so good! Add chorizo if you're a fan- some of the best I've ever had. Great jams, too!
