When you are here you with family. No frills, homie, good people making good food. It's a family business and I hope we don't see places like this disappear anytime soon. The steak and eggs burrito is super underrated.

Drove out here because it topped a list of best tacos in San Diego and I’m glad to report that the food is indeed amazing. I ended up going with the “Birria de res con chiva” and it was delicious. Tender meat, aromatic and body warming soup with a kick of spice. It’s a small, local shop that is well-staffed, clean, comfortable, and full of good food.

We loved Mi Rancho Market. A Taqueria with a meat market inside serving deeellicious tacos. We ordered up the barbacoa, asada and al pastor which was our favorite. Definitely don't sleep on the Hot Hot hot salsa.

Wasn't planning on coming here originally but found this place on Google maps. Immediately walking inside I noticed the cleanliness and the simple layout of the Market. The cashier was very nice along with the crew in the kitchen. I ordered a asada burrito with 3 birria tacos. Waiting for the food, I appreciated the organized placement of goods for sale and the location of the kitchen and seating area. The food was great and the service was professional. Will be back. 5 out of 5.

$1 al pastor Taco Tuesday deal. Can’t beat it. $1.99 for list others. Carnitas was my fave and good carne asada. Definitely recommend. Shared parking lot in the back and booths and high tops dining among the market.

Don’t know when they moved, but the new location is much bigger and convenient! Across the street from Lowe’s with a large parking lot! Definitely a huge upgrade than the previous location! Had a late craving for their Taco Tuesday and they never disappoint! Amazing salsas and radishes to pair with the tacos as well! 10/10 recommend if you’ve never been! Their carne asada fries is also my guiltiest of pleasure.

I love their tacos and chivo soup so much that I taught myself Spanish. I really appreciate that they keep your culture and the food authentic. They not only offer the common beef, pork, chicken tacos but also beef stomache, beef tonge and fish. I love them so much. High recommend! 实在太好吃了，牛舌牛胃山羊汤都超级好吃!

This spot is the real deal. Best Huarache de Pastor I've tasted north of the border!! The birria trio is also mouth watering good, and the taco salad if you're feeling something lean! Tuesday is a great time to come as well, all the meats are tasty and it feels rightfully nostalgic paying roughly 1.50 for tacos. Love this spot!
