Delicious food. I got the bolt burrito and pacquiao. Regret that each person got their own burrito because the burritos are super stuffed. 3 people could split one burrito. Ate there but our to go bag was heavy. Lots on the menu. Hole in the wall so don't expect great ambiance. Service was fine. Food came out quick.
This place is great. The curly carne asada fries are our go to, but the Pacquiao fries are also really good. They manage to keep the fries crispy while many other places get soggy. Also like that they actually offer a super burrito, it comes with everything I want so I don't have to customize, guac pico de gallo cheese crema. The portions are very generous as well
I ordered the Pacquiao burrito and it was larger than my forearm! This is my first time here as I was looking for unique burritos and this place has a fairly creative menu. They seem to have a lot of fusion burritos containing Filipino items like Tocino and longanisa. Come hungry or plan to share as portions are hefty. Also, staff were friendly and accommodating. The place is pretty small and didn't have air conditioning so I'd suggest taking it to go especially during hotter days.
It's a pretty good place that offers a variety of meat on fries in addition to its other traditional burritos. I got the carne asada curly fries. It was tasty - the fries were crispy and the meat tasted decent. The prices were on the high end, so if you guys are local here I'd recommend it.
When I heard where this was. I thought... no way this could be better than a 2 star spot. Feels like it was sorta in the middle of nowhere. Welp I was wrong. Four stars easily. The area looks rough when you pull up and when you walk in, it equally looks like it. And coming from where I come from...That's how you know the flavors about to be dope. Menu is huge. They got damn near every dish you could think of and different variations like one with hot Cheetos. For that reason alone, it gets 3 stars because everyone will find something they want here. The burrito was huge. I ate a ton and almost couldn't finish my Cali burrito. There's an orange salsa which was spicy and my new favorite salsa. Service was quick. There's a few seats (maybe 5?) available if you need to come and sit and eat. Bachata and Cumbia playing in the background. Solid place.
Was visiting my parents and wanted some good Mexican food so I hopped on Yelp and saw this taco shop had Filipino fusion. Highly recommend the longganisa fries with curly fries. Shop owner was friendly and got my order out quick. Salsa here's have a strong kick so if you don't like spicy foods, limit the amount you put on. Curly fries as the fry option is a superior choice of fries from the standard cut for me. The outside gets saucy while the inside stay nice and crispy. Huge portions, great hole in a wall hidden gem in the community.
Off of 54th street, located on 5413 Redwood street, San Diego, CA 92105 USA Home of the 20 inch burrito. "Monster" It's a small restaurant with a 15 minute parking in front but there's plenty of parking across the street for unlimited time. Once you enter, to the right is a small dining area. In front of you, there's a a big menu hanging on each of the walls. We had a person ordering before us & it's our first time here as well. There was one cashier/cook, he was very busy getting down in the kitchen and taking our orders fast, he spoke super fast but got our orders right. We ordered the curly fries carne sada and pork Loganisa curly fries. It was huge! Feeds about three people per box. The price is pretty hefty but you definitely get a lot of food. The curly carne sada consisted of sour cream, guacamole, chipotle and cheese. The pork loganisa had everything the curly carne sada had except it had fried egg on top. The pork loganisa had flavor but both of the entree was mainly all curly fries and not much protein, guacamole nor sour cream. I wished they put more protein, guacamole and sour cream; It will definitely make a difference. One thing for sure is that he hooked it up! The salsas were great, my favorite were the green salsa and a orange color salsa; I believe it was habenero. It had some kick to it. The red one I can do without. You can grab as much salsa as you want! Don't be shy! They accept cash or cards!
