If you want great tasting tacos with perfect tortilla chips. This is the place. Price is similar to the area as well. If you’re more like me and you know what Birria tacos taste like, this isn’t the choice for you. The flavor is good but the spice is completely lacking. They also charge for the consome so that alone feels very wrong. I wouldn’t come back myself but I would 100% recommend to my American friends looking for good flavor and a great atmosphere.

The sides were elite — pickled red onions, fresh lime wedges, cilantro, and a clean presentation. But what really took it over the top was the taco itself. The crust had that perfect balance: crispy enough to give a satisfying crunch but still soft enough to bite clean through without everything exploding out the back. The birria was juicy as hell, maybe even a little too juicy — but in the best way. The salsa bar? Absolute game-changer. Next level flavor and variety, no weak links there. And honestly, mad respect for only offering one type of meat. That kind of focus usually means they’ve dialed it in, and they have. Every bite felt intentional. Top-tier taco experience.

Mike’s Red Hot Tacos is the real deal! I stopped by on a recommendation and this place absolutely delivered. The tacos are packed with flavor, super fresh, and have the perfect kick without being overpowering. You can tell everything is made with care — from the tortillas to the salsas. The staff is friendly, fast, and makes you feel like a regular even on your first visit. Prices are solid for the quality you get, and the portions definitely hit the spot. If you’re in San Diego and craving tacos, this is the spot. I’ll definitely be coming back! 🌮🔥
