Los Jilberto's Taco Shop Borrego Springs

Best carnitas for a hundred miles. You can drive by it and never see it, it blends in. Look for the Pele wanna-be, sombrero wearing, pepper cabesa on the sign. I won't look anywhere else for quality food when I'm in the area again.

The Nak is said to have lettuce, guac, fries beans and carne asada. Couldn't really tell there was lettuce though. The burrito was huge but the taste was nothing special. It's good for a quick fix in the area. Their horchata was pretty good. Service Is friendly and fast! It was quiet on a Sunday night.

Had excellent food here! Had the machaca platter which came with rice, beans and 4 corn tortillas. Your choice of either corn or flour. They have a small salsa bar with pico de gallo, red sauce, green sauce and pickled carrots. The price was reasonable and the food plentiful! Everything was delicious! I can see why there was a line waiting to order. Food came out fast and hot. Definitely one of the top Mexican food places I've eaten! They are cash only

Awesome street tacos. I thought they were a bit expensive until I received my order. These things are packed full of meat. Super tasty and authentic, highly recommend. Things to know about this place: cash only and no restroom.

The Anza-Borrego Desert is an awesome place. But, before one heads out to check you the blooming cactus 🌵 it’s important to have good breakfast. Los Jilbertos Taco Shop has an awesome choices. The carne asada burrito and the carnitas was delicious. This a good place to get great meals. Everything we order was perfect . We had many requests due to food restrictions and the staff was fantastic in modifying some of our orders. I am grateful to all the staff at the shop they were patient and kind. Next time you find your self in the area be sure to stop in at Los Jilbertos Taco Shop.

Solid Mexican food in Borrego. Good salsa bar. California burrito was good, wish it had sour cream and more fries. But otherwise tasty. Breakfast burrito was great, too. Family business.

If you've been to any version of the Albertos restaurant, this is almost the same. Looks/tastes the same (not a favorite). Chile verde burrito was tasty but fell apart 2 minutes into eating. The best thing they have is Thrifty ice cream!! It's not bad given the limited places to eat in the area, especially when most are closed mid week or close early, just wasn't a fave. Service is friendly though, and you can self-serve as much salsa as you want, so that's a plus.

Lovely and friendly staff. Al pastor tacos was great. We also got fish tacos which was also crispy and delicious. We are always appreciative when the taco shop has pickled carrots and a salsa bar. It was so good we got an Al pastor burrito to go !
