Ferny's Mexican Grill

Just went to Ferny's for lunch. I didn't know what to try, so I just went with the 5 rolled tacos. I was disappointed that it was just guacamole & cheese on top, so I had them add lettuce. Flavor was ok, nothing too special. The spot was a typical taco shop. The service was ok. I didn't even realize she was talking to me because she wasn't looking at me at all. I may or may not be back. I just happened to be in the area and decided to try it. I gave it 4 stars because any taquitos that is guacamole & cheese is never 5-stars. I need to give this another try to see if it gets 3 stars or 5 next time.

This taco shop doesn't look like much from the outside but the tacos were actually very goodI loved the spicy shrimp taco. The carne asada was just okay. My friend liked the pork adobo better than the carne asana as well.It just took about five minutes for them to prepare our foodThere are just a few tables inside and it isn't fancy. I would just suggest getting it to go.

Fernys is a solid spot for good Mexican food. I won't say it's amazing but it always hits the spot. The staff is friendly and service is quick. I always get my order to go but the inside looks clean. California burritos are fire. Breakfast burritos are great. One time the carne asada fries I got was good but the fries were a bit undercooked. When I'm craving a Cali - I'm headed back there

I walked in and made an order to go for a carnitas burrito and a crispy beef taco. I enjoyed the carnitas burrito. It was very simple with the meat (which did have good flavor - pretty solid carnitas), pico, guacamole. I enjoy burritos like this that are simple without rice and beans. It could have been a little bigger. The taco was also good, but not great... for a crispy taco it could have been a little more crispy. The service was fine for a typical take out place. No complaints. A very casual atmosphere. Overall a pretty good spot to pick up some tacos/burritos to go. If you're into loaded French fries, I hear they have good ones here.

I've heard over and over again from several friends that this is THE spot for mexican/taco shop in the area and I have to agree... for the tacos. I had a burrito here once and that was not that great in terms of price, portion, and taste, however, I then followed up with the tacos... THE TACOS!The regular (non-mini) tacos themselves are quite pricey, (~$6 each depending on the protein you choose), however, it is so worth it. They are pretty hefty and the amount of protein makes up for it. I am a sucker for a fresh, hand-pressed tortilla, and these do not disappoint. The chew and bite into the tortilla is soft yet firm enough to told the monstrosity of fillings that it comes with. I recommend the fish, carne, and adobada.I decided to try a crispy potato taco for once, something I don't tend to order, but I was pleasantly surprised with how good it was. The crunchy shell was nicely fried and the potato had really great flavor with pico and sour cream on top. wow, I'm a fan now!

Went here 20 minutes before closing. Saw they have Buffalo chicken fries. Another place in San Diego I used to frequent has this. So I asked if they could make on into a burrito. This is the best Buffalo chicken burrito I have ever had in my life and it's not even on the menu. It needs to be but they were happy to make one for me even so late.Portions are good. Pricing is fair. Menu is extensive with a lot of options. Ambiance and restaurant are very clean.I can't wait to try it more.

The best tacos and flautas in all of East County! I come here every Tuesday for their taco Tuesday deal. It doesn't matter what they you come the food is always good. All the cashiers are nice except one but I still rate them 5

This place came highly recommended when we first moved to Santee and it did not disappoint. Now it's the go to taco shop in the area. Food is great. Hand made tortillas for the tacos. The nacho burrito is awesome!

I ate burritos from here at least once daily when visiting my parents. Lasting satisfaction every time.My personal favorite is the carne asada burrito. I recommend ordering in person rather than online. They're super quick and friendly, and there's plenty of clean seating inside.

Great Mexican food when ur in Santee, we use to go here a lot when we lived around this area years ago.The down side I saw was the hot sauces didn't have any spiciness to them and with little flavor other then tomatoes. The veggie burrito was not seasoned as well, it had bell peppers, tomatoes, onions, very little potatoes and beans, it was supposed to have rice in it but I never got to any. The burritos are also on the smaller side which is disappointing because the price is high.The good about this taco shop, the carne asada fries were actually big and good, the carne asada had flavor and there was a lot of it, the diablo burrito was delicious and the diablo sauce was perfect, a little hint of heat but packed with goodness.
