EaterApril 23, 2013Traditional Barbacoa-style lamb, stuffed into tacos and enchiladas or on top of sopes or tostadas. In any form, it's delicious - the Travel Channel's Andrew Zimmern agrees. [Eater 38 Member]
San Diego ReaderAugust 15, 2013What really sets Aqui es Texcoco apart is the pulque! .... Pulque! The drink, made from fermented agave sap, is the historical booze of pre-Columbian mesoamerica." - Ian Pike, San Diego Reader
Arthur MitchellDecember 22, 2011This place is excellent! They clearly pay attention to the details as most everything is made in house! The Barbacoa de Borrego (BBQ Lamb) is outstanding!
KenSeptember 6, 2013On top of everything else, they have a number of good beers on tap and one microbrew label in bottle.
Excellent food and service to match. Wait staff very attentive. Food prepared quickly and served up hot and fresh.
Max NiuApril 1, 2023Good lamb barbacoa, but the online order process is not smooth. Seems they tend to not receive it at the restaurant for whatever reason

Aqui Es Texcoco serves traditional Mexican lamb barbecue, styled after a unique Barbacoa dish served in the Texcoco reign of Mexico. Our Barbacoa, served here in Chula Vista, is the closest to traditional lamb barbecue you’ll get in the US!...
