    Best fish tacos and great location! We stop by every time we're in La Jolla and haven't had a bad meal yet! Highly recommend the fish tacos and parking can be an issue but totally worth it.

    The California Burrito is awesome. Perfect lunch spot just a couple blocks off the beach. Highly recommend!

    I hate to give bad reviews anywhere but I'm Sorry, no. El Charro es no Bueno. How do you mess up guacamole? It literally looks like the slime from Nickelodeon. Great people, but horrible food.

    I had enchiladas. They were very bland. Try something else or go someplace else.
