Big Boy Market
Restaurant
👍👍 It was by chance that we passed by here while running errands. Someone was dressed as a burger, were hungry, it was fate.
We pulled into an unsuspecting market & were so surprised to see a whole miniaturized restaurant inside.
We ordered the El Greeko tacos & a smash burger with cheese.

Pizzeria El Jefe Mexican Pizza Revolution!
Pizza restaurant
👍👍 I'm very upset at this pizza shop. I ordered a mango pizza and the thing didn't even last me an hour. I ate it all in one sitting. My wife wanted a piece and after she demolished hers I bit her hand because no one will touch my pizza made by El Jefe. Seriously though, this pizza is fire 🔥

The Balboa Bar & Grill
Restaurant
👍👍 Took the family here on a Friday evening, and really enjoyed it. Burgers were yummy and the beers and ciders were delicious. They have board games, a DJ and some free Padres swag for the win. It was an amazing family outing, and I highly recommend this place.

Tasty Mandarin
Chinese restaurant
👍👍 We’ve tried different Chinese food places in Chula Vista and Otay Ranch and Tasty Mandarin is our favorite thus far. Some people might consider them pricey, but for the amount of food you get, I think their prices are reasonable. Typically we order 3 dishes and it will last through 3-4 meals. We pa...

The Empanada Spot
Restaurant
😠 This place has gone significantly downhill. My family and I have been eating their empanadas since the pandemic. You can tell the empanadas are frozen and it messes with the flavor. We have recieved orders with missing items like actual empanadas (like today) or salsas (also like today) and sodas th...

Taqueria Tiajuana
Mexican restaurant
🫤 They used to be way tastier when they were a taco truck. Now they’re all about trying to survive because they are so busy all the time. If you have time to waste then by all means go dine in. If you wanna take it to go be ready to be missing food and wait for ever to order. One of their better tacos...

Mmm...Cakes

👍👍 I had heard about this bakery for the last couple of months. It did not disappoint. I was lucky enough to stop with my friend just before closing and bought the last 2 cinnamon rolls. They were awesome! It's what a cinnamon roll should taste like, especially the warm center. The inside is chic and...

The Nutrition Place
Health food restaurant
😠 This isn't a legal smoothie shop, it's an unregulated herbalife scam. Please don't drink anything from here. All the positive reviews are weird, mention specific things, and are clearly fake.
