Amazing people, delicious and very inexpensive food, a lot of vegan/plant-based options, guacamole with every dish ????, salsa is sooo good! we also enjoyed cool authentic decor. Highly recommend!
Excellent service, Tara was my waitress. Outdoor seating is available and there is a separate bar area. Steak and chicken fajitas are really good. They serve chips and salsa for the table. I will definitely return when I am in the San Diego area. I used a Groupon so it was a really good deal.
Favorite among locals. First time visit and would definitely come back next time in SD. Sorry no pics of my food--it disappeared so fast. Delicious variety of sauces too.
