"First time trying this place out since my go to taco shop is Armandos. Ordered the Carne Asada plate. Paid the lady and 10 minutes later my food was freshly made, hot and ready. Prices are reasonable, however portions are on the smaller size. The meat did taste good and was not overly salted, however the chunks were covered in oil. The pico and lettuce were standard, same with the rice. Beans were OK. With the two large flour tortillas provided, I was able to make two skimp burritos. Very much satisfied and will return again!"

"Hidden gem. The only taco shop in the area to get tacos de cabeza and Mexican Coke in a bottle in the middle of the night. They got massive California burritos too."

"24-hour Mexican joint not far from the 5 in Imperial Beach. You can walk up and order or go through the drive-thru. Weirdly, there are no speakers at the menu in the drive-thru so you just order at the window. California burrito was pretty solid, with a nice balance of ingredients and a good taste. Worth hitting up late night in IB."
