Homemade tortillas, fried tacos, and rice & beans since 1933
"A decades-old, no-frills institution open since the 1930s where the line-around-the-block, curbside experience is part of the charm and the food remains straightforward and authentic." - Stephanie Gravalese
"A staple in Barrio for authentic homemade Mexican food. Everything about this place bursts with character. From the cafeteria style line wrapping out the door, to the ladies behind the counter energetically preparing food and exchanging with customers, to the oddly perfect decor, to the tortilla factory in the back. I love this place! Oh yea, the food is really good and very affordable too! Get the rice and beans with whatever you order. Thank me later." - Product Etc.
"The Barrio Logan landmark is one of the most beloved Mexican restaurants in San Diego. The Estudillo family first opened its doors in 1933, and since then, the daytime joint has been slinging a straightforward menu highlighted by fresh flour tortillas, beans, and rice as well as a must-try chorizo con huevo. The lines can be long, but visits are always well worth the wait at the cash-only counter. Standouts include tamales (take a couple of pork tamales to go home and freeze for later), rolled tacos dressed in lettuce and queso, bean and cheese burritos, and pork or chicken burritos with lettuce and cheese." - Roxana Becerril
