Serranos Mexican food [ENCINITAS]

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars isn't enough. Serranos Mexican Food in Encinitas is an absolute gem! I'm still reeling from the flavor explosion that hit my taste buds, and I'm not alone. My wife and I, and our kids are from Texas we're in town on vacation with a passion for Latin American cuisine, were thoroughly impressed. As Texans, we're spoiled with amazing Mexican food options, but Serranos brings a whole new level of authenticity to the table. From the vibrant colors to the lively music, the atmosphere is perfect for a night out with family or friends. I've eaten here twice in the last 3 days, and I'm hooked. The customer service is top-notch...friendly, authentic, and genuine. Our server greeted us with a warm smile, made recommendations, and ensured we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The staff's attention to detail and genuine enthusiasm for the food and culture shone through in every interaction. The environment is perfect for families, couples, and groups. The decor is lively and colorful, with vibrant artwork and lively music that adds to the energetic atmosphere. But the real magic happens in the kitchen. The quality of food is exceptional – every dish is made to order, bursting with flavor, and cooked to perfection. You can taste the authenticity in every bite. I ordered a few dishes to share, but the three standouts for me were the Surf-n-Turf Fries, Moonlight Crunch Burrito, and mini Al Pastor tacos. The Surf-n-Turf Fries were a game-changer – crispy fries smothered in succulent shrimp, savory carne asada, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro. The combination of textures and flavors was absolute perfection. The Moonlight Crunch Burrito was a flavor bomb, packed with tender steak, crunchy tacos and veggies, and a whole list of other wonderful foods, and a hint of spice. And those mini Al Pastor tacos? Perfectly marinated pork, grilled to perfection, and served with a side of fresh pineapple and onion. Each bite was a masterclass in balance and flavor. What really sets Serranos apart is the love and care that goes into every dish. You can feel the passion and dedication in every bite. The chef's attention to detail and commitment to using only the freshest ingredients shines through in every dish. If you're a fan of Mexican food like us, do yourself a favor and get to Serranos. Be prepared for a culinary adventure that will leave you wanting more. We'll be back, and we'll be bringing friends. Serranos, you've earned 5 loyal customers in us! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What happened to Serranos bro 😂 I tried giving them a few more tries but this is the worst Carne Asada Burrito I’ve seen. Leaving them in 2025. Sayulitas better!

My family and I love this place. One of the few places not price gouging. We LOVE the $1 fish tacos, they have a lot of different sauces, and the chips and salsa are great.
