Diego's Taco Shop

If you're heading to Alpine or passing through on the 8th I definitely suggest you make a pit stop to this taco shop. Not sure why they have three and a half Stars although the food is really good and the salsa if you like it spicy it is delicious. I love the way they put all this cheese on the real tacos and I'll definitely be back for more and try some more different items. Good job guys

Say no more!!! The BEST breakfast burritos in town. I personally love the sausage breakfast burrito with French fries. Excellent Sunday morning breakfast!

Really good, big breakfast burrito .. reeeeally good salsa too. Service was fine, didn't wait long. Ambiance is a little taco shop next to a gas station.. definitely a drive through and go type of place.

Sure - it's in a gas station!. But is it delish! We were starving after a conference at Viejas. Stopped here for gas and the promise of tacos lured me in. Beef tacos. Cheese enchiladas. I dare you to find a better shredded beef taco. Super fresh. Crispy , cold lettuce. Crunchy just fried shell (in new oil because fry my food in your old shitty oil and you're going Dooowwwwnnn on Yelp!) Fresh cheese and added sour cream! Soooo good! Super friendly guy at the front. We pulled over with myTake out and I realized he forgot a fork for my enchiladas. Was about to cry (hey! I was hungry... but also boghie... so I am NOT using my Falanges!) anyway - pre tears - super nice guy shows up with forks!!!! Superman! Definitely worth a stop!

Diego's Taco Shop is an unassuming little taco shop attached to a Shell Gas Station. It is off Exit 30 on Alpine Road. You would never know from the outside, just how good the food is. We actually stopped to get gas and I wandered through the Shell convenience store to see what we could get for lunch. I didn't see anything that caught my eye so went through the plastic partition to go into the taco shop. We decided to try it. My husband selected a carnitas burrito and I had the tacos. The burrito was HUGE! It was two meals. We both thought the burrito was the better than the tacos. We have also tried the pork adobado burrito. Hubs thought it was really good, me-just pretty good. Next, I will try the machaca burrito. Or the Beef Res. They have so many items that we can't wait to try. And we will stop again the next time we drive in that direction. The prices are good for how much you get. I recommend stopping if you drive by that way!

Diego's has great ceviche that is made fresh and you can special order it on the weekends also their adabada tacos are out of this world

I know a good burrito when I taste one...I grew up in the 90's when carne asada burritos were a pound each and only $3.25. That being said this place has some very good burritos. Good variety of flavors and meats. Yes they do add lettuce to their Carne Asada burrito (a little odd) but once I had it, it was bomb. The rolled tacos are excellent and the price is right. Great family owned small business, good service and good food.

There's just rolled tacos, but I do like my rolled tacos to have a good amount of tender shredded meat, tasty guacamole, and a good hot sauce to accompany them. The ones I experience from this little taco shop adjacent to the Shell Gas and Mini Marker, were decent but needed a little help.At four dollars, you get three rather skinny crispy rolled tacos. They were skinny and came with very little slightly overdone shredded beef. More meat would of been good because it tasted pretty good. The guacamole that came on top was okay, but it really needed some seasoning because it was bland. The rolled tacos came with a good amount of white and yellow cheese which tasted okay, but is quality was suspect given it had a dry texture. The corn tortilla used in the rolls were a little overdone.The hot sauces were okay. There flavor was mild with some sourness to both the red and the green. Both had a mild heat level and in the end, they did not add much to the quality of the rolled tacos.

This could have been a good breakfast burrito but unfortunately is was filled with mostly unseasoned potato. They could have cut back on that and added more egg and sausage to balance out the overall flavor.Their red and green sauces were both very good and the service was friendly enough. In the meantime I'll continue to look elsewhere for a breakfast burrito.

Helpful staff and great tasting food. Don't worry about the fact that it is in a gas station, this place makes really good tasting Mexican food. My kids love their bean and cheese burritos and French fries. I'm a big fan of their carne asada burrito and their carne asada fries. My only complaint about the burrito is that the cheese is rarely melted when you ask them to add cheese. My wife really enjoyed their shrimp quesadilla. Don't go into this place expecting anything fancy as far as ambiance, but as a kid, we always found the best food at the dive shops, so enjoy.
