    Ordered a chicken Chimichanga tonight. My first bite had a couple bones in it. I have come to expect that here, but it didn't bother me much. But as I continued eating. Every bite had at least one small bone in it. About half way through I found half of an entire chicken spine in the middle. I could not continue after that. If they can't consider the basic attention to detail to not serve customers food they won't choke on, what other disgusting things are going on behind that window. I will never return here.

    Been going here for years. Recently the prices have got to be where it’s not worth it anymore. Got a bean and cheese burrito today and it was hardly bigger than a taco bell one.

    Hands down best customer service I have ever encountered at a taco shop. Not only was this establishment friendly, fast and convenient the food was absolutely amazing. Would recommend to any of my closest friends and relatives. This will go down in history. Cheers.

    Went through drive thru. Got 2 burritos. Pretty decent, hot sauce is great! Service was a little slow, but it's fresh!!

    The secret is to order the Breakfast Burritos plus they have TACO TUESDAY here!, the HORCHATA is tasty. The red SALSA for the Breakfast Burritos is good.

    Great food! My "go to" when I need my Mexican food fix! They are always polite and friendly even when it's taco Tuesday and they are swamped!! Food is delicious and should there ever be a mistake with my order they have always been quick to make it right.

    Had to drive away from pick up window without food. Was on a busy schedule was stuck in the drive through line over 15 min. When I pulled up to the drive through window no one even opened it within a reasonable amount of time so I gave up and drove away without my order

    Every time I pass through this place I always see a line in the drive thru, I assumed it had to be good! I gave it a try last night and omg people don’t know about Mexican food… the rice and beans were salty and not fresh. The lengua (tongue) tacos that we order were horrible. Lengua tacos are supposed to be juicy and smooth texture tongue when fresh. This one was fried in the pan with burn side and dry. The roll tacos had a bad smell… I don’t know if it was the cheese, but never had any of my roll tacos smell this bad. It was my first and last time! I still don’t understand why it always has a line… my best bet is people don’t know about fresh Mexican food 🤷‍♀️

    Been going here since day one. Not anymore. Horrible attitude, lack of mental cognition on the part of the staff. Refusal to take phone orders, in lieu of a garbage, incomplete, malfunctioning app. An app that the staff has attempted to gaslight me into believing has no issues, and I'm somehow using it wrong....🙄 The last straw was waiting an inordinate amount of time for my order due to the "curbside" spaces being full. Of which there are four spaces, so I selected my space number on the app as "5", and parked mere feet away from designated spaces. This proved too much of a "Litmus Test" for the staff, as I waited in vain for my order, I eventually called (why insist on forcing customers to use the app if you'll answer the phone anyways?) and was met with: "you have to park in the designated spaces". Well, physics tells us that two objects cannot exist in the same space at the same time, which OBVIOUSLY renders their demand null and void, let alone physically impossible. Why this entire thing require a call on my part, and not a notification on the app, or a call.... In summation, taking your successful decade plus long business model and throwing it in the trash is a strange way to make a living, I've never tried personally, but it seems pretty obvious.

    Great Mexican food. This place always has a long line for the drive through but it moves quick and worth the wait. Beef taco $4 and carne asada burrito $9, great food at a great price.

  • 2/5 John W. 7 months ago on Google
    Used to be my end all be all Mexican place in Ramona, the food was always amazing and the red and green sauces were to die for. Recently there’s been a change and it’s not the same quality. Especially the red sauce and refried beans.

  • 1/5 M J. 5 months ago on Google
    Asked specifically for no onion, and they purposely put in onion!!! Allergy sufferers beware! They'll laugh in your face about it!

  • 5/5 John F. 5 months ago on Google
    This is the place I go in Ramona for the taco shop experience. The carne asada, mixed, and bean and cheese burritos are sizable and exactly the flavors I expect from living in San Diego for more than 12 years. The rolled tacos are also spot on. This place was really busy both times I visited this trip but the service was still friendly and quick! With a walk up window and a drive thru, you can order ahead of arrival or order onsite. Definitely earns a place on my permanent list of places to eat in Ramona, California. Love it!

    Sat outside at tables. Busy place, so long wait to get food. I liked the carnitas torta, it was large and tasty.

  • 2/5 Gabriella J. 1 year ago on Google
    Definitely wasn’t a fan of the boiled potatoes in my breakfast burrito. Overcooked they turned in mashed potatoe each bite and had no seasoning. Wasn’t happy with our food this AM. Will stick to taco Tuesday.

  • 5/5 Donald W. 1 year ago on Google
    Taco Tuesday drive-thru, at least put napkins in the bag or do you have to request them? It should be a no-brainer and automatic as most people eat in their car's. Also they're not accepting phones call in orders as of April 1st not posted! But you can do an online orders.

  • 1/5 Edward 10 months ago on Google
    Don’t let the breakfast burrito prices fool you ($7.99). You’ll get a tortilla filled with potatoes, cheese, and egg. No bacon in sight. Undoubtedly the worst breakfast burrito in California. Update: After getting 1/2 way into it, I decided to open the burrito up to see if they forgot the bacon. The dark spots are bacon, but they’re scarce and should be unacceptable to be called such. Save your money and go up the street to Mañana’s (1137 Main St, Ramona, CA 92065).

    First time in the area, turning up on taco tuesday, drive thru was packed but worth it. Nice service. Tacos were fresh and yummy. $1 taco chiices are asada, cabeza, carnitas, adobo, pollo asada

  • 4/5 Dino N. 1 year ago on Google
    Lots of dishes on this menu. There taco Tuesday is a great deal, I recommend the carnitas but they have It all including breakfast burritos, prices are fair and service is good.

  • 5/5 Amanda E. 1 year ago on Google
    Always amazing food and staff. Always fresh and crispy fries. On point burritos. Sometimes there's a long wait but worth it and makes sense because they're delicious!

  • 1/5 Alex D. 1 year ago on Google
    Bummed to have to write this but this place has really inconsistent quality, last time I ate here the carne asada in my burrito was burned and crunchy. Bad enough to keep me from coming back. Surf & turf is good as others have mentioned but if they ruin the carne asada it ruins the whole thing.

  • 2/5 JESSE B. 1 year ago on Google
    Definitely some of the smaller burritos in all of San Diego!!! 15min wait with no one in line. I understand the price of things are going up but the overall size of food should not go down! No longer a legend......
