I parked my car in the parking area which is free Trujillo's taco shop always open. God thank you almighty for always having trujillo's taco shop near my living home stay. A man needs to sell even clothes to get his early morning breakfast, lunch and dinner right. I and my friend used to eat here always. Special atmosphere at Trujillo is worked out carefully. They sell burritos only. He doesnot have any other branches in san diego. Got the burrito so, i opened it and saw whats inside. I ordered again with chicken. Yes was the answer. I enjoyed the burrito. I feel the tortillas are cooked and rolled with green peppers, rice, black beans, chicken. Its customers satisfaction.

Your classic SD style tacos and burritos. The portions are huge! Burrito was the size of my arm and taco is definitely equivalent to at least two normal tacos. The flavors were there, but can’t say the asada in the burrito or carnitas in the taco was the freshest or best I’ve had. The pico and salsa make up for some of that though. Was hungry after a night of drinking, so everything hit that night and definitely had leftovers for the next day.

Got a shrimp burrito and a fish taco. They both lacked seasoning and didn't taste good. The fish taco just had some sad, soggy lettuce instead of the typical slaw. It might be good for drunk college students, but that's about it. Couldn't finish eating it. The price definitely doesn't match the quality or taste of the food.

Drove by many times and smelled the aroma of taco shop while pumping gas. The smell haunted me and after a glowing review took my family there. Parking is very limited and we found one next to the over piled trash bin. My daughter worried there trash would fall out and hit the car. Walked into music blaring so loud I sat my kids furthest away from the speakers. At entrance I had my reservations due to the lack of cleanliness of the restaurant but ordered anyways. AFter the trip to the restroom pretty clear I have seen and smelled much better bathrooms in a truck stop. Then came the food at the tune of 30 for over salted Carne asada and runny bean burritos. SALSA FORET ABOUT IT. The place was pretty packed with students I'm just wondering are they from out of state because this place has encouraged me to see the restaurant rating. Our table was wiped down by an employee who served our food who pushed the food remnants to the floor. Ahh now I see. As we left we saw this same employee with a ladder jumping up and down in the trash bin outside. Umm needless to say won't be going back EVER. My nose has faithfully failed...

I love this place, the food is very delicious but whenever I grab food at night it is not the same, it does not taste as fresh, there is always something I tell you about my experience today, my husband ordered a California burrito instead of asada Adovada no pico no wacamole he said only adovada, fries, and cheese my husband specified twice, I went to pay my order I asked the cashier if she had taken the order well she said yes and she repeated it and as a result they gave us Adovada with wacamole no fries, I asked for a sigma nu of Asada and it came with a drink and they have always given me a can of soda this time the cashier told me that if she gave the can I was going to be charge extra🤷‍♀️ I complained on the phone and the cashier tell that if I wanted a refund I had to return at that time with the burrito, please I have two babies, I ordered not to cook and I have to return right now to get my money back ???? and my gas and my miles ?? 🤷‍♀️ Well this was my February 14 at...

I wanted to love this little hole in the wall. Nice woman behind the counter, but it just went downhill from there. The place was empty but they still managed to get our order wrong a few different ways. Kept forgetting what drinks we ordered, forgot our rolled tacos, etc. My vegetarian meal had chicken in it ... twice. One of the times my cheese enchiladas came out full of freezing cold unmelted cheese, and a piece of chicken in it. Really? They must not keep their ingredients separated very well. Finally receiving our proper food, I can only say the food itself was fair. I'm sure the drunk college kids like this place because well, they're drunk. LOL

After a visit to the restroom, my friend said "I sure hope I don't get sick from eating here". I honestly thought that was a little uncalled for. There's no way to ever prove where you get sick from something so who knows, but let's just say my friend ended up in the ER from...
