El Charro Taco Shop

The best fast food Mexican restaurant in town! Great service, great food, lots of specials, and friendly staff. What more could you ask for!!?? I consider myself to be of higher intellect so believe me when I say that absolutely nothing beats el charro taco shop!! In all seriousness though my husband and i love this place so we need to stand together and stop the hate!! I'd drive 3 hours for this if I had too…

I am not one to be hyperbolic about food. I have eaten hundreds of delicious burritos across this country. That said, the California burrito I ordered here was the best burrito I have ever had in my entire life. Crisp fries, fresh vibrant guac, airy sour cream, a perfect flaky tortilla, tender incredibly seasoned carne, all in perfect ratios to each other. And to top it off, a thick, citrusy green salsa that just sent me over the moon. Thank you for the memory. When I think of San Diego, I will be thinking of this burrito. I will never forget.

Family and I came here as we were visiting SeaWorld. Wanted something to eat after, my mom saw this place on the map and decided to try it out. It was only one guy taking and making orders, it was quick even though he was by himself. I ordered 3 carne asada tacos and 3 carnitas tacos (I like mine plain), my other family members ordered sopes, tortas and burritos & everything was delicious. Mind you my dad & husband are both picky eaters and for them to say their torta & burrito was surprising for us

Absolutely an amazing place to eat at. I could eat here everyday if I could! The food is very delicious and the owners are very sweet & friendly. Grateful to have found this GEM in San Diego!!!

Got the pork tacos and they were so good I had to get another 3 to go. Best tacos I have had since being in San Diego.

The food is GREAT! I have not had good Mexican food since I left Texas in 2016. The owner is nice and he works hard to serve good food. My family and I had beef tacos, beef burrito, and nachos. The service was great and the food was awesome! I suggest this place if you are in the San Diego area.

Not authentic taco. Pic is fish taco. Store bought tortilla. Fish was ok. Indoor seating, free parking. Took time to get food.

El Charro is an absolute must try!! The owners always greet you with a smile and show appreciation for each customer. The inside of the resturant is clean and welcoming. My family and I have tried a variety of items off the menu and haven’t been disappointed. The food here is authentic and made with love.
