Rylee BersOctober 13, 2018I was pleasantly surprised at the defor in the restaurant. Then I was blown away by the display of the guacamole and by how fast my mouthwatering enchiladas came out. I finished the whole plate.
SanDiegoStreetStyleSeptember 4, 2014The shrimp ceviche tostadas are fresh to death. What else? Eclectic deco, 80's music, a sparkly disco ball, and the cutest waitstaff (the ladies get pink ruffle skirts). This spot screams FUN.
PaddyMarch 19, 2016Carne asada quesadilla was very good, and huge! Quite a good happy hour menu but a strange atmosphere. Part shrine to the Virgin Mary and part disco lounge. Not quite sure what to think of it.
jakubikMay 21, 2015Staff somewhat cocky as others have said on here but the Happy Hour is a great value for both drinks and food and the place looks pretty cool. Somebody also said hipsters' heaven. Yep :)
Manager Elizabeth is awesome!! Great to work with! She helped me make my boyfriends bday a blast/success!! I originally had a table reserved for 20 but we had at least 50+ RSVP. Highly recommend!!!
Elyse EstradaDecember 27, 2012California burrito. Share it with a friend and put some of the cheesy salsa and the hot red salsa on top. It's huge but damn good!
Gabriela ValdezAugust 4, 2012Authentic Mexican food that tastes home made and I'm mexican. Cool, intricate, catholic, Latino decor. Fast service even when they were busy and overall great experience.
Jonathan LeonardSeptember 17, 2011They should call them coleslaw tacos. Great place though. Cool vibe, excellent music, and decent food. Right near the casbah for a show.
Dominic RiosOctober 16, 2015Great atmosphere, happy hour drink specials, and salsas but the entrée was just okay. Also noisy given the proximity to the airport.
This place makes me wanna get tattoos and wear cutoff shirts...I'M DANGEROUS! Love the breakfast burrito on Sundays for brunch. Must try the nachos next.
Yanira JohnsonSeptember 21, 2013Truly one of the most beautiful bathrooms I've ever been in. I love it!!!!!
Them chips and dip though. Haha. No kidding, probably the best chips and dip ever. So good!
DineSpotAugust 15, 2012Great Tuesday night specials! Plus 80s karaoke! 3 dollar coronas and margarita!
EdisonJune 2, 2010Try the Nachos El Camino. It comes with choices of Carne Asada, Chicken, or w/ Shrimp. NOMAGE!!
Monica MorganOctober 10, 2016Food was pretty good, service was ok, DO NOT plan a group party there! They tried to kick us off our table for their next party and we were still eating and ordering drinks. That is in poor taste:
Great music! Always a great time there. Love the whole experience there. Great food too! Read more
DJ RebirthMay 16, 2012The KJ here on Tuesdays needs to take down her mid level frequencies because her vocals are emitting too much static. Upgrade your mixer!
M DarteJune 23, 2013Dont bother calling ahead. Waited an hour and 40 minutes after being told it would be 30 min. Eventually left when they said it would be another 30 min and the kitchen closes in 45 minutes
Best Micheladas in San Diego (outside of Chula Vista)
Don't ever leave this place without trying their Michelada paired with a negro modelo.
Chefs FeedAugust 22, 2014Karen Krasne, chef of Extraordinary Desserts, eats here on her nights off. She loves the Sweet potato flautas. Read more
Amanda BAugust 6, 2011Love the decor and the planes flying low over your head out back at the patio bar.
Sandra SapolJanuary 18, 2012The tortilla chips were insane! Not sure I've ever had better chips/salsa with my dinner.
Maa HMarch 31, 2011Wednesday nights at 930 killer jazz and the place looks like it's right out the tarintino movie from dusk till dawn
Chris DalcourMay 16, 2013Play a drinking game called "Guess that Airline flying over our head!" 70% of the time it's Sourhwest :p
