Review My Guadalajara Taco Shop - La Jolla

Taco Kings, or El Toro Street Tacos & Beer... I suppose you decide what to call it! Either way, the service is excellent, the food is delicious and the price is reasonable. A cooler filled with soda and beer greets customers at the counter. A server takes your order and a chef cooks the food. Simple, well done and unpretentious. I was offered a taste of a beef preparation (birria) with which I was unfamiliar and it was so tasty I bought the taco! We ordered that; a fish taco, rice and guac and Carne Asada Fries. Everything was authentic street performance. Flavors were simple and bold. The fish was cooked perfectly, a crispy, tender chunk of whitefish that barely allowed the taco to close. I could take a bath in the birria beef. Carne Asada fries came as a giant, delicious, decadant boat-full of eat-in and take-home smothered french fries. I took advantage of a Groupon coupon that saved a nice bit of cash, but remembered to leave an appropriate tip for the great service. Good place for a quick bite or a family meal. This place is a hidden gem! We'll be back.

Yum! Service was excellent! The girl behind the counter was friendly. The food was super quickly served. Quality food and a great atmosphere. Definitely worth it!

They live up to their name! Drop by due to the hyped reviews left behind and I order an adobada, asada, fish taco and an order of 3 chicken rolled tacos. My friends had their birria pizza. All of it 5 stars, all of it excellent! The only area that I say they can improve on may be their timing... A bit slow... And almost gave them 4 stars because of the slow service... But the food more than makes up for it.

Delicious Birria tacos! Didn’t come with consommé but we didn’t need it; the tacos were so flavorful and juicy and the meat was tender. Delightfully dripping with Birria juices. Loved both the salsa verde and rojo. Had to order a la carte, so for 2 Birria tacos I spent $7. Definitely want to go back and try their Birria pizza, ramen, and quesadilla. 10/10 recommend.

We came here to try their birria pizza special they have on Mondays and sure glad we did. It tasted great! This pizza is loaded with meat and cheese. I like how they toasted the tortilla using the juice from the birria giving it that color and extra flavor. We tried another spot in Chula Vista that offers a similar special but this one definitely is the better choice. This pizza can definitely feed a family of four! Great price, great dish. Would definitely be back for more.

Big fan of Mexican food this place is hidden in a strip mall in Del cerro. I really liked the atmosphere it was small but had 2 massive flat screen TVs showing Thursday night football great place to catch a game with friends that nobody knows about yet. Would recommend to anyone who likes great Mexican food had the carne asada plate it was amazing.

Great little Mexican restaurant. We've been here twice and it appears a lot of people do take out here. They have a weekday happy hour as well as taco Tuesday specials. Hands down the best mexican rice I've gotten out in a long time. Tostado bowl and rolled tacos great as well.

I was shocked by how good the taco shells they use taste and everything we ordered was really good.

Five star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ MARITZA was super friendly when we arrived !! The chicken rolled tacos were A1🔥🔥 Chefs flavor profiles were so damn good! Yeah I'm readyWe love it here! We’ll be back before we fly back to Charlotte 😍

✅ Adobada Tacos and Birria Pizza ♥️ ✅ Tons of parking spaces ✅ Clean and cool interior(Interior photos of google map might be previous store's)

Great birria. Arrived with my group (8 people) and each person ordered their own thing. It took a while for the food to come out and some people were done eating by the time the rest got theirs. It was ok tho becauae we hung out and chilled. I got the birria tacos and the potato rolled tacos (the rolled tacos were bland but the green salsa fixed it some). The birria was awesome and juicy and well seasoned. The people working were friendly and welcoming. I will definitely come back.

Thank you for this wonderful experience. Maritza was a great host. Excellent customer service. The rolled chicken tacos were hot and fresh,,topped with fresh veggies👌🏾

I like to give 5 stars on all three but atmosphere is not family welcom because of the bad music in Spanish is not traditional Mexican music is ghetto narc bad word music that I'm discuss to hear and is a bad representation to Mexican culture.

First time here and the birria ramen was delicious all the flavors the birria has where there. Definitely coming back and especially recommend it.

Hi! It was my first time at your shop today. The girl who took my order was nice at first until my vegetarian request of a weird burrito combinations (beans rice and potatoes!) confused her and then she seemed crabby. Then she forgot to put my order off ($5?) chips in the bag and scoffed when I asked her for the extra salsas I requested. Anyway, 5 stars for deliciousness, I loved my food, but 1 star for friendly service and absence of my chips
