Los Jilberto's Taco Shop Borrego Springs

This is a standard taco shop with good food and no atmosphere but perfect for a quick meal or take out. I've ordered here several times and the food has been exactly as expected with reaonable prices for the area. Service is not friendly or particularly fast but it is competent and better than some sit down restaurants in town.

The Fish Tacos with Rice and Beans was the best I have ever had and the nice lady at the counter was very polite and professional. I will diffidently go back there soon. I do not think that the fish taco plate is be topped by another choice. One of the other guest recommend the hard or soft beef taco plate. And yet another frequent guest told me laster that the Al Pastor Plate was their preferred item.

Dishes maybe from authentic recipes but ingredients didn’t seem fresh. Food is delivered on cheap to go plates and boxes and with plastic forks. The people working there are very friendly. The smile of the woman managing the front counter was welcoming.

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.

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 !

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.
