Los Pinos Taco Shop - La Mesa

Visiting from AZ. Asked some locals where to get great Mexican food. Los Pinos did not disappoint. The potato taco was out of this world. Bean and cheese burrito was huge and delicious. Also the beef tacos were fantastic. The owner was super nice as well. Love this spot, will be going back again before heading back home.

This was the worst mexican food I've ever ordered. The rolled flautitaswerecold and floppy. When I picked the first one up, it bent in half and the toppings fell off. I the Horchata was all settled instead of in a brewing machine. I won't ever purchase from here again.

Don't get me wrong, the food is great. Everything they use from the meats , to the home made salsa to the flour. But I think you should visit this place for the people alone. They are one of the most genuine and kindest people you can meet in San Diego. They love their customers and if you are someone who like to part of an establishment because you also share the same values, then I highly recommend you visit them. Oh and try the carne asada taco!

Good food and the service (the owner) is friendly and attentive. Taco Tuesday has been a highlight with tacos 50% off but today I ordered my usual and was charged full price. The server (not the owner) said the fish tacos only are 50% off, which is news to me. Sad to see the old deal go!

Gem of a taco shop! I have been here 3 times and each time I'm impressed. I've tried the fish tacos, the breakfast burrito, and Carne asada fries. I honestly don't think you can go wrong here. You've got to get their habanero salsa!
