We just walked in but I would recommend setting up a reservation the place gets very busy and I can tell you why the food was excellent. We sat at the Bar, the service was great and the Bartender were very friendly. I ordered the Seafood Enchiladas and the portion was huge. It came with three generously stuffed enchiladas with shrimp, scallops and a local fish. The sauce was great combo with the slaw they placed on top. The chips were good too, crisp but not greasy. We finished the meal by splitting an order of Charros and those were over the top. I would go again.

This place serves tacos and has a good Tequila selection. I had the surf and turf tacos with street corn on the side. It was delicious. These tacos are filled with lobster and steak. The steak was tender and the lobster was good. The street corn was delicious! I wanted more of it. My girlfriend and I both had a mule which was delicious. We ordered seconds of it it was that good. For dessert, we had churros which are served with cream on the side for dipping. They were fresh and really delicious! I would recommend this place to anybody.

Stopped in for a bite at The Blind Burro with family, our first time there. The setting was fun and lively with plenty of bar seating and a few TVs, making it a great spot to watch any game. Also, the service was wonderful, our waitress was on top of everything. As for the food and drinks, the best thing we ate was the cheese crisp appetizer (not pictured here) and a family side of street corn, while our short rib tacos and cup of pozole soup were just okay. The food was rather salty and our drinks were not that flavorful, nor strong. Overall, the menu had some great selections, but the quality just didn’t quite match up to the price.

Nachos were too thick and were quite hard to chew (be careful not to bite on it too quick). The powerbowl had an interesting taste, but I appreciate the big serving. There weren't a lot of customers when we were there, but it took a while to get our orders and receipts.

Located on the corner of J st. & 7th Ave. near Petco Park. We've been coming to "The Blind Burro" for many years now because it never disappoints. Today, I had their 'Burro-ito Barbacoa' which is slow braised beef burrito (a bit spicy) accompanied with a 'Strawberry Margarita'. My husband had their 'Carne Asada Chimichanga' which is a deep fried steak burrito. Both are pretty big in size and tasted delicious with fresh ingredients... We liked the Chimichanga a lot. Shout out to our server 'Alyssa' who was very attentive and did not rush us at all. The restaurant is always clean and organized with outside seating and plenty of TVs throughout so we enjoy watching sports here...the restrooms are also clean every time we've visited. It's always a great time here, which is why we return.

I had their nachos which were quite yummy and plenty for two. More traditional Mexican ingredients made it unique. I was there after a game let out, so it was very loud and busy, The crowd was lively and a bit claustrophobic. The only reason I gave the atmosphere a 3. But expect it to be different at other times or under other circumstances. Do very much recommend giving them.

Great place to take the kids. We had a group of 10, they were able to seat us right away during comic-con week. Luck or Great service. Either way, they were great 👍

Great service, good food, and fresh tortilla chips were very yummy . Pictured food and drink~40$, so the pricing is meh.

Came on a Monday during Happy Hour where they have $4.50 beers, and about 5 items under $11 each. We went with: Fish Taco - came with one, but pretty large and filling Calamari - seasoned really well and nice and crunchy! Came with two dips which we really enjoyed. Queso Crisp - which was like a crispy chip pizza thing with toppings. Pretty interesting take as it was sliced like a pizza! Overall ambiance was pretty fun with lots of TVs playing and very attentive staff.

I definitely recommend the lobster tacos. The salsa and chips were incredible. I ate on those the entire meal! The rice and pinto beans were pretty good as well. The street corn was okay. It was highly recommended but there was a lot going on. Also, you kind of bet on margaritas at places like this but the pineapple margarita was, again, okay. The service was good and the outdoor dining options were amazing. I'd return and try new menu items.

Stopped in during Comic Con to get the Barbie Margarita (watermelon) and Ken shot. They were delicious. Staff was very friendly too, I asked if they had anymore Barbie promo menus because I wanted to hang one in my room and they found one for me to take home! Love them for that

Overall good first experience. The restaurant itself is super cool, and very spacious. Nice menu with a large selection of Mexican favorites. Food was served hot and very fresh, with what seemed to be high quality ingredients. Didn't give give stars because everything was spicy and wish it was optional, because tortillas had an odd flavor and were not as freshly soft as they should be, and because I was hoping for a slightly more authentic Mexican flavor. Outside of that, it was a great time.
