We were here about 10 years ago. We had a great time here because the burritos here were fantastic and HUGE! This establishment has now grown to a nice size restaurant. The burritos here are still the same and they are still BIG, yet taste great! The owners are still nice and humble and eventually she remembered my wife and I when we met their daughter who was headed to college. Great place to grab an authentic burrito.

Hands down, my favorite place to eat in Baja! And I’ve eaten at A LOT of them! We go to Baja for work several times a year and eat almost every meal there... love the food and our Burro family even more. I can’t wait to get back there in a few months

Awesome tacos and burritos. We ate here 5 times at the 2019 Baja 500. Try the Robbie taco or the Offroad breakfast burrito. Note: they don’t have beer here so pick some up at OXO just up the street.

Favorite taco spot when we travel to Ensenada. Family has always taken care of us and its been a pleasure having a familiar face and getting to know them over the years.

The burrito we had was delicious, but it's not as big as they make it seem it's still very filling and good.

This place has a variety of dishes, I've only had fish tacos and they are perfect. My husband says the breakfast is delicious. They keep it very clean and it is family owned. In case you don't speak Spanish, they speak some English.

They have amazing Fried Fish and Fried Shrimp Tacos. Also their Jamaica is really good, not too sweet. This is my local "Go to" from now on, just sorry I didn't try earlier!
