Skip all the other mexican spots that you'll see on every corner. This is the legit one offering Authentic Mexican Food - the tacos are made with homemade corn tortillas! My favorite is the Al Pastor. They offer complimentary chips with some of the best salsa's in San Diego. Other menu item that are great are Menudo Soup or Ceviche Tostada.
