Legit barbacoa, probably one of the only places that gives you hand made tortillas in their tacos, hand made quesadillas are massive. And the only place that makes a respectable suadero. Love this place and keep recommending it to all my friends. True Mexico City vibes. And they've gotten the taco shop food down as well.

Street tacos were meh. Super greasy tortillas. I think we ordered the wrong stuff. Would try the Birria next time.

This shop is not for me. I was stunned to read the amazing reviews after having a not so amazing meal. Maybe it was us? Maybe it was a one-off type of night? I would recommend trying for yourself.

Antojitos Tenampa is one of my favorite SD Mexican restos. Their lamb barbacoa is deeply flavored, moist and slightly fatty. What makes their family lamb plate better than the others are the tortillas. Their tortillas are much better than Aqui is Texacoco and Da Cabeza. The lamb consumme is great - a bit on the spicy side. I get an extra side and make chiliquiles with it the next day. The AlHambre was - to quote a Yelp Friend - "a mexican cheesesteak". I liked that the onions and peppers played as big a role as the meat. Their sopes are also good - I can't wait to try their huaraches. Also, everyone at the restaurant usually orders the menudo - so I assume that is great as well. Their salsa bar is superior.

Just had this place right now and decided to review while it's fresh in my memory. Read a lot of good reviews but it didn't quite live up to the hype. I ordered a great deal of food but they were alright. Today they had a Taco Tuesday deal for $1.50-1.75 each depending on protein.The al pastor tacos I tried were a bit on the dry side. It lacked flavor. The carne asada quesadilla was pretty good. The rolled tacos were too crispy meaning they probably over fried them. They also had huge pieces of lettuce, tomatoes, and onions throughout my food meaning they were not thoroughly cut or looked over.I was the only customer in there so they could've taken the time to package my food and aluminum foil properly. Looked like they just threw everything in the container and they had the tacos messily wrapped in aluminum foil that wasn't even tight so the guacamole and onions were all stuck on the foil when opened. They should've put everything in styrofoam boxes.The lady at the counter I'm assuming her name is Mariam was nice and I like their sauces especially the avocado one.

This place is great. We've been coming here since we moved into the area, and the flavors + service are all wonderful. Feels like genuine, traditional cooking and there's always flavors that surprise us here. A tad bit pricey cause of COVID but they're wearing masks and take good care of the place (gotta support the family business owners!!) So far have tried the fajitas burrito (awesome), every taco Tuesday flavor (longanisa and carne asada were my favs), and the carnitas family meal.

This is the kind of place that ruins my day.... Because all I'll be able too think about your the rest of the day is coming back.Small location, hidden in a strip mall in Lemon Grove... But don't get it twisted- this is a destination. You really don't need to wait until you're in the area, you need to come and eat DF (México city) style food here because it is worth the drive. The handmade corn tortillas alone are with coming back for.... But come with the intention of trying something new... Ask for recommendations if you're unfamiliar with Mexico City style food.... Try a pambazo, or choriqueso... Don't fall back to your typical California burrito order or the same roll tacos you get at the local taco shop.Order tacos de borrego ....mmmm... Chefs kiss...i usually drive to aquí es Texcoco or my secret spot in City heights.... But these guys are just as good with better tortillas... And that is a HUGE deal...So happy to have found a new spot to keep coming back to and eating my way through the menu!

I had the sopes and it was very good. A little sloppy but delicious. The Jamaica was fresh. For a taco shop she took our order and served us at our table, very nice. The place was very cleanWe'll be going back.

The staff and owner are deaf and blind apparently. Mexican to Mexican, this owner and his staff are uncle Toms. My car was damaged in the middle of a fight that happened outside this business. I called the police to see the footage, and the owner refused to cooperate with police. I'm stuck with the damages and a long-lasting impression of the owner, the staff, and lame restaurant. The food is weak, and I'm done pity spending on grown adults. If you want to actually be safe and cared for eat somewhere else.
