Frutylicious Santee — Restaurant in Santee

I enjoyed a nice bowl of albondiga soup from this place in Santee, east county San Diego. The bowl of soup came to $10 and some change. The soup came with piping hot corn tortillas, some chopped white onions, and Mexican rice.

I really liked the soup. It was the red version and was a little spicier than I thought it was going to be, but in a good way of course. In addition to the delicious and tender Mexican meatballs in the soup, the soup also came with chopped potatoes, carrots, and Mexican squash.

The soup tasted very good and all the ingredients in the soup were tender and flavorful. The albondigas meatballs were well made with the incorporated rice and mint. I used the onions and rice inside the soup, which came out great. The corn tortillas were of very good quality and were perfect for dunking into the soup and making little meatball tacos.

The service was good. The lady who took my order and made my soup was very friendly and polite. They offer mostly inside seating and a few tables on the outside. Next, I need to try their...

This place is a hidden gem. I usually drive down to south to Logan or Chula Vista for this type of food. This was my first time going last week. Met Esmeralda and her niece. Mom and Pops place to eat, very authentic, made me feel like my father-in-laws cooking. We had the Cubana, Torta and the Birria Empanada for my family of 7. Also ordered 2 chamango drinks and 1 mazapan shake. Everyone was deliciously amazing. No complaints here, definitely will be going back with the whole family this time to try something else...
