We love the restaurant and come every time we come to San Diego. However, service was not great. But, we will always come back.�

Our waiter was very good. The food yuk. We saw so many ppl go in we thought that it had to have great food. Pork in my roll tacos was so dry. Tortillas served with salsa a joke. Overall really bad . No flavor. Coming from Arizona we are use to excellent authentic Mexican food.

We got our table fast and Ricardo our server was very good! I am only giving the food good because of my sister’s and my overcooked meat of adobada and some of the octopus from the shrimp cocktail tasted fishy. I didn’t bother to tell Ricardo because it turned out that not all of it tasted that way. I will definitely go back when I’m in town.
