Estrada's Restaurant

All I can say is I really don't want this restaurant to leave again. This place is old school with a lot of family history. There are no fancy backgrounds or fruity distractions. The family is super nice to converse with, no attitude like you have at some of the other Mex places in town. Oh, and the food is outstanding. Lots of homemade recepies of course. My fav items... Thier enchiladas suizas, carne asada soft tacos, shredded chicken burritos, and of course they have excellent rice and beans, a must. They even have ground beef, which I know is not a glorious meat, but I like it! Even thier Iced tea is great, haha. Cristina and Cynthia have always been super pleasant!

Most authentic home cooked Mexican I've had in North county San Diego they single-handedly have the best chili riano their gorditas are amazing with the beef and potato even the cheese crisp which I don't generally get is always goodone of the old time restaurants in town converted house into a restaurant next to me Guadalajara put them to shame every time.I ordered takeout so I apologize for the crude photos I'm about to post,

It was very authentic and delicious meal. I will need to go back for more. Carnitas was perfect. Loved the beans and rice that went with the meal. It's a very small restaurant with not much atmosphere but I'm there for the food not the decorations. The beers are served in frosted mugs. AWESOME! Save room for dessert.

My sister recommended this restaurant to me. I'd rate it a 4.5 due to the lack of seating and atmosphere that could be improved. It had very good chips and salsa. The food was excellent and authentic. Don't expect your food in less than 5 minutes, because it's made fresh. You cannot compare this place to a Roberto's or another California Mexican fast food. I know how to cook my own Mexican food, but this is one of the few places I would go to and buy Mexican food.

This little old house has been in the family for several generations. The family converted it to small Mexican Restaurant serving homemade traditional plates. This is a popular "secret" place for locals, so plan on a full house here during the lunch hour. I highly recommend the chicken mole...it is perfect! Couple it with a frosted glass of iced tea and I can assure you, it will not be your last visit here.
