So I went yesterday to “El Mercadito” (ice cream shop) in Old Town San Diego, whe the costumer in front of me ordered Ice cream and at the moment of paying with cash the cashier mentioned they only accept card, when the costumer ask them What happens with the ice cream if the costumer doesn’t take it or can’t pay? And the girl mentioned “We just put it back in the container” wich is totally gross, personally I walked out, hopefully you can check what type of costumer service you give and do proper sanitary procedures

Returning home from La Bufadora, Baja Mexico, and was so disappointed in their churros. Stopped in San Diego on my way home, found this little place and was taken back to my youth and so delighted to share an authentic CHURRO with my son who has only had those store bought stale ones. GREAT JOB! Delicious! Thank you for redeeming the authentic churro! Eaten only with cinnamon sugar that topped it. It was perfect.

Delicious churros and ice cream but the rudest staff attending, he didn’t offer the extra dipping cream included when I came back for it he just dropped it with the worst attitude. Everyone in San Diego is super friendly but this guy was terrible, if you don’t like serving to customers why are you there ? :(
