    First visit was a early Saturday morning a couple years back around 800am, and once I knew my surroundings I was torn between getting a morning Bloody Mary at Cali Comfort or, having breakfast at the nearby taco shop. I chose the healthier? option by getting a breakfast burrito here at this taco shop. One of the few places that includes hash browns in these. I'm sure I saved some dough too since I was already shelling out $175 for work on my clunker of a truck at La Mesa Tire. Seemed like a smart call. Yes I was definitely hungry while waiting for my front end work and alignment and... what do you know, Yelp came in handy to try a new spot! Very good! Quality and taste here were above average. I've heard about this place from a guy at work 'cuz his cousin lives a block away. He gets the Carnitas burrito and says it's glorious. I have been back to try a California burrito and a tostada and it's been consistently tasty. One of the better taco shops I've been to in the Spring Valley area for sure. I haven't ordered anything with guacamole, but some say it's that glowing green sour cream version. Maybe just avoid those types of items. We have a great problem here don't we? So many taco shops, so little time..

    The food is tasty,the service is ok and ambiance is small I'm not a big fan of that. After 12:00 p.m. good luck it gets crowded in there everyday ! My advice have patience.

    Food was awesome. The shrimp ceviche was as it's supposed taste like limón. The beef tacos hit the spot and the salsa was perfectly spicy. My son had the pollo asado burrito and he devoured it. The two downsides are that the parking was limited and they only accept cash. The guy at the register was friendly and attentive with our order. The atmosphere was as expected some music from the radio station no remark about it. Overall my experience was a solid 4

    I drove 20 min and it was absolutely worth it! California Burrito was phenomenal (with their special ingredient of hashbrowns instead of fries!!!) AMEN. No salsa needed.
