Mexico Viejo

Had the mixed and the carne asada burritos for lunch. I can honestly say that this was the best that I have had here in San Diego and I’ve been eating at places here since 1980! The burritos were fresh and hot. The flavors were perfect. And the salsa bar was excellent. This is the place to go for Mexican food, unless of course your in Mexico.

This place is amazing. The taste is amazing truly authentic, and I must have food stop!

Being from the Midwest, we don't have anything like this mexican food anywhere. First night in town, I found it by chance and got myself a Cali Burrito. It was the size of my forearm and was amazing, but also I couldn't get out of there without ordering a bran and cheese burrito as well this was amazing as well and practically the same size all amazing.

Everything was so good I went back on my 2nd night and got the quesabirra taco platter, these were very good only thing I was missing was the consume but I don't believe this came with that anyway but I can only imagine that it is an amazing broth too.

Best carnitas I've ever had! This tiny little spot is tucked behind the italian place, and easy to miss. It's my first time ordering today and I got the carnitas plate with a side of chorizo. The carnitas are flavorful, succulent, and have the crispy edges from being pressed against the flat top grill. The chorizo is the perfect consistency and level of heat. the little cut limes are juicy and the guac is smooth and fresh. I'm writing this review mid meal just floored at how much better it is than Mr. Taco. had to give credit where credit is due.

A very good authentic little restaurant.

The menu is extensive, with a heap of good options.

On my first visit, I ordered a fish burrito and a beef taco. Both were very good, I was especially fond of the fish burrito, the contrasting flavours, value and size left me wholly impressed.

I’ll be back for-sure, just keep in mind seating is at premium here. This place gets busy for a good reason, but the food never takes too long to come.
