El Compadre Taco Shop More - La Mesa

This place is horrible. Not only do they take a very longggg time to make your food, but their food is of poor taste. I ordered a California burrito and the fries are huge square chunks of potatoes. The meet is so chewy and difficult to dissolve. I also ordered a bean n cheese burrito that tasted like cardboard and oil. The big fat guy that makes the food moves so slow and itched his beard and then grabbed food condiments with his bear hands without washing them and put them in my food! I watched it with my own eyes through the drive through window.This is disgusting and should be flagged for inspection. Im going to report them to the city inspector! Dont come here! No wonder the kids at Helix say not to order your food at this place...

I had a disappointing experience because I wasn't sure if the restaurant was open. All the signs indicated that they were, so I went to the drive-thru. I was prompted to place my order, but after a few minutes of waiting, I drove up to the window and found no one there. Is it possible they were closed on a Saturday at 7 o'clock? I'll update this review once I've had a chance to try the food.

I'm at a loss for words—it feels like enjoying a home-cooked meal straight from mom's kitchen after school. The atmosphere in the neighborhood is lovely too!

I've been coming here for years, and they are simply the best! They've recently expanded their menu, and there are now lots of healthy options available as well.

It's a beautiful place, but they could improve by relocating just one or two blocks down the road.
