To start this is the only Vallerta location that had poor quality in how the food was prepared an tasted. I ordered a Adobada Torta an when I've ordered that from other locations, onions are dices an there wasn't any lettuce in it. I literally had a handful of onion just thrown in an chunks of lettuce. To top it off the buns were so thin, I picked up the torta an fell apart. It just was a mess from the Start I couldn't even finish it cause the meat was practically dry an had no flavor. Please correct these issues but either way I won't be coming back.

This place makes one of the best burritos I've ever had. We came here expecting an okay burrito, and we got a wonderful burrito. My favorite Mexican spot now in San Diego at this point.

Don't take phone pick-up orders overnight, so it's not efficient for overnight workers trying to grab quick lunch

Sooooooo in 2018 when I visited SD I literally ate here every day (sometimes more than once) for an entire month. If this joint were in the bay area where I'm from it would be fire from dusk till dawn 24/7. Up here our burritos are inferior; bean rice staple.. very heavy and carne asada is by far the most mediocre meat you can order (al pastor is where its at in the bay). please open a location up here :(

I guess the chef has a problem reading

There are some places with better food, but not that are as convenient. Also, be aware their tacos are bigger and not street taco size.

Highly recommended! Delicious chicken teriyaki burrito: flavorful, generous portion of chicken, well-cooked vegetables, tasty sauce. Quick, friendly service. Open late. Will definitely be going back

I paid $10 for a Cali burrito here. It was the most disgusting burrito I've ever had. It was cold and filled with a ton of Pico. I couldn't even finish it was so bad.

Best California burrito I've found and their orange sauce is literally perfect.Vallarta, if you're reading this, I don't live in San Diego anymore and I need your hot sauce. Please tell me the recipe, I'm gonna not sell it or tell anyone, I'm just going to eat it.

The food was not good. The burrito was mostly guac and sour cream and rice and we ordered steak and shrimp. The steak was chewy. The place was dirty. The cashier wasn't helpful regarding what was on the menu. I will never go back
