3695 India St San Diego (at Winder St), San Diego, CA
Mexican Restaurant · Midtown · 102 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: I have been going here since 1967. After all these years, the food is still excellent. My favorites are the taquitos, mordaditos and a chicken burrito with guacamole.
4504 E. Mission Bay Drive, (at Grand Ave), San Diego, CA
Seafood Restaurant · Pacific Beach · 15 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: This is Rubio's Numero Uno. But, don't let the looks fool you. This is the epic center of the fish taco explosion in San Diego and then the US. For that reason alone, it makes my top ten list.
9700 N Torrey Pines Rd (Pangea Drive), La Jolla, CA
Mexican Restaurant · 10 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: Located in the Estancia La Jolla Hotel & Spa, this restaurant offers excellent food in a beautiful setting. But it is a bit pricey like the hotel.
Mexican Restaurant · Old Town · 211 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: Above average, but has that 'tourista' food feel of old town. My carnitas were tender, but lacked the bark of superior carnitas. The Naga Dragon Salsa was hot, but not the barn burner I expected.
Taco Restaurant · Mission Beach · 22 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: Been coming to his place for thirty plus years. First came when I lived two blocks away on Isthmus Ct. The food remains uniformly good to above average.
Mexican Restaurant · Old Town · 173 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: Long known for it's vibrant bar scene, the food has slipped markedly over the past ten years. They have 'gringo-ized' the food to appeal to the touristas that come to Old Town State Park.
Mexican Restaurant · Ocean Beach · 17 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: Place has been hopping for years and there is a reason. Inexpensive, good and large portions. Perfect for the Ocean Beach crowd and after a eventful Saturday night
Grocery Store · City Heights · 28 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: The taco shoppe inside the market is quite good. Not much seating and the market is quite busy... for dessert, pick-up some sweets from the market's bakery.
Mexican Restaurant · Clairemont Mesa East · 11 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: This place is well above average. Owners pay attention to details as all the food is prepared in house and the place is immaculate and supper clean.
7305 Clairemont Mesa Blvd (at Ruffner St), San Diego, CA
Mexican Restaurant · Kearny Mesa · 75 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: Been here many times. Last-time, the beans were dry and too salty. The rice just so-so. The chicken lacked flavor and was over done, i.e. rubbery. So, this must have been an 'off-day' for Lotitas
4642 Park Blvd (btwn Adams & Madison Ave), San Diego, CA
Mexican Restaurant · University Heights · 176 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: Well above average, but not quite excellent. Carne Asada was tasty as was the carnitas. Bean and rice were good--had they been better we'd have a superior to excellent place
Arthur Mitchell: Your basic below average burrito place. They used canned beef for the carne asada. What's with that? So, I'd stick to the chicken and pork.
Mexican Restaurant · Pacific Beach · 78 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: Your basic beach taco shoppe. The menu is unique with those wacky combinations of flavors that surfers oh so love. The food is above average and flavorful with generous portions.
Mexican Restaurant · Tierrasanta · 8 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: Below average taco shoppe. The carne asada was flavorful but tough. The beans and rice lack robust flavor as well. Salsa bar was limited and just average in flavor.
Mexican Restaurant · East Village · 72 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: Average. Nice location, but the food is not remarkable. My the hominy in my pozole was over cooked and looked and tasted more like soggy popcorn. That said the dorado tacos were quite good.
9353 Clairemont Mesa Blvd (at Ruffin Rd), San Diego, CA
Mexican Restaurant · Kearny Mesa · 10 tips and reviews
Arthur Mitchell: Above average taco shoppe. The beans were a good flavor and consistency. The chicken filling for the burritos was excellent, but I love it when it more stew like in nature.
