Villas Mexican Food — Restaurant in La Mesa

Located inside the Grossmont Mall food court. On this particular day, all three vegan eateries were closed that I wanted to try. So we went for Mexican at Villas.

My boyfriend likes regular ground beef tacos and surprisingly not many places offer that except for like, Taco Bell. Meanwhile, I love flautas and very few places offer that. I alway joked, only authentic places offer flautas.

Well, Villas made us both happy when they offer both! Got chicken flautas and it came with 2 giant roll size. Topped with cheese and sour cream, lettuce, and guacamole on the side. The outer shell was deep fried to perfect that’s crispy and crunchy with every bite.

The ground beef tacos came with 2 loaded tacos in a hard shell with lettuce, cheese, tomatoes with a side of beans and rice. We also got one fish taco and the batter and seasoning was very flavorful.

Not a fan of their burritos . Simply had no flavor especially in the Cabeza burrito, I bite into it and it was soggy like the sauce was just too much that the tortilla wasn't holding together everytime I tried to bite it, I was also disappointed with their surf and turf burrito that's at 14 something, my husband and I took one bite and that was it...waste of my money's. People simply just don't have any love in cooking and making them the right way.. Sorry but not so sorry .... The only enjoyment I got was the carne asada fries and that's that...will not be...
