Tijuanero By Tijuanazo - Little Italy

This place is a complete scam. I ordered a quesadilla to go and what I got was nothing close to a real quesadilla, it was tiny, barely had any cheese, and looked more like a small burrito. I’ve never been served a quesadilla that small, especially in San Diego where they’re usually big and loaded. We also ordered tacos and they were super small and way overpriced. Honestly, everything here is overpriced for the portion sizes. There are so many better taco spots in San Diego where you actually get your money’s worth. I definitely don’t recommend this place and won’t be coming back.

Taco Tijuanero has recently opened its doors in Little Italy. I stopped in for lunch and ordered a carne asada burrito, a chorizo burrito, and a side of sauteed onions. The tacos were $4.15 a piece and the side of onions or cebollas cost $2.75. They make their own hand made corn tortillas, which always a good sign and they were very good. The tacos came with a very good amount of protein. The carne asada was tender, lightly seasoned, and offered a subtle smoke flavor from the flame grill. The chorizo was tasty. It offered a vibrant flavor that lingered in the mouth. Both tacos came with house made guacamole, which was very good, chopped white onions and cilantro. The salsa they offer is very good and offers a good heat level. The side of onions was a generous serving and were succulent and tasty. They came with an additional corn tortilla, which I gladly used to make a onion taco. It's the way I roll. The service was welcoming and friendly. The menu is on a QR code. I do hope they make a physical hand held menu or at the very least a sign with prices etc. They offer outside seating only and a very small parking lot.

This is the first review I’ve ever written. This place has the most overpriced garbage food and terrible service. This place is a scam. If you want good tacos go down south to Chula Vista. All the people who says the food is good here don’t know what they’re talking about. The food here is mid at best. One taco is almost $5 and it is small and about 3 bites. The meat is dry. They don’t have a salsa bar. Also they take forever to serve. While I was eating one man walked out because they took so long. And got into an argument with the staff. One of the staff has a very bad attitude and is aggressive. The one with tattoos on his face. Also unless you walked there, you have to pay $25 for parking. This place is a joke and an embarrassment.
