About this business

Scores of diners visit this restaurant on weekend nights, especially when an exciting independent film is premiering at the Ken Cinema across the street.

Whether you are a local or visiting San Diego, this is the most authentic Mexican food I have found. I grew up on my grandmas and moms mexican dishes and Ponce’s has nice portions, sooooo authentic, VERY fresh!!!

I was hoping this place would become a new fave; sorry to say it won’t. My carnitas were very salty as well as the so-so beans. I think the tortillas were Mission tortillas from the store. Sorry to say huge disappointment, won’t be going back. It’s similar to places in Old Town-for tourists.
