El Trompo Mexican Taqueria

My FAVORITE Mexican restaurant in the area. Been coming here for years. The food is fairly priced and the portions are large. The food is consistently delicious. They serve alcohol and also have a TV, usually playing a soccer match. The inside of the restaurant is a bit small, with a few tables inside and a few tables outside as well. My go to order is the asada (steak) tacos and carnitas enchiladas. They offer both corn and flour tortillas. They have a salsa/sauce bar with different types of sauces of varying spice levels. It also has limes and onions as well. The employees are SUPER friendly every time I visit. Although I don't speak much Spanish, the employees are fluently bilingual. I've ordered takeout from here many times and have not had my order messed up a single time. No matter how big or small my order, it's never taken more than 15-20 minutes for my order to be ready. The weekday (Monday-Thursday) specials usually aren't any discounts, but rather just the normal entree but with a free drink.

Do not judge this place based on their modest exterior and interior. Their tacos are AMAZING!! Also love their self service salsa bar! 4 Tacos Taco Tuesday is a great deal and will make you very full!

Their el pastor burrito put me in a 1.5 hour food coma. At first I thought the price was a little high but the gentleman showed me how big the burrito was. It was not an over exaggeration, as I knew as soon as I was handed the bag with the burrito inside. This burrito was a monster and the taste brought me back to San Diego. I think I’ve found my new default place for burritos.

Wow!! The food was delicious and fresh! Some of the best chicken tacos and guacamole I've ever had. They have a great drink menu too with fresh juices, beer and wine. Quick and friendly service too. I will definitely be back!
