Humberto's Taco Shop

hands down the best taco shop on earth !!!!! Been eating here since I was a child , I would recommend this taco shop to anyone , make sure u try the pollo asada fries & chips fire emoji

WHERE DEADPOOL BUYS HIS CHIMICHANGAS! I came in because I was craving some yummy Mexican cuisine and also wanted to celebrate Deadpool's comic con weekend and to grab his fav food item (I know I'm weird haha). I'm glad I came here! You can tell this is a local hangout and the staff are pretty personable. It's in a borderline grimy part of town, however don't let it deter you, I recommend visiting! I ordered a chimichanga with chicken, green sauce and guacamole! It was AMAZING! The meal was perfectly fried and tasted so fresh. Some of the toppings provided were a little refrigerated so I didn't use them (I'm looking at you lettuce). I would recommend eating the chimichangas as they're served and with the toppings that they already placed on them. Don't add any of the other stuff they give you haha. Seating is minimal, don't expect to bring a large group as there's only a few small tables inside. I didn't spot any seating outside. The tables are a bit dirty inside so I would recommend takeout. Humberto's is a traditional taco shop, you order at the counter and wait for your order. Once you're called, you go back up to the counter to pick up your food. Note: I ordered fries and they were a little limp, like something you'd get at weinerschnitzel. Not bad, but could be firmer.

I give this place ~3.9/5 stars. It's not bad at all, but it's also not nearly the best taco shop I've been to in Southern California. I tried the California burrito and a carnitas taco.The burrito was better than the taco--the carnitas was kind of odd, more like little bits of pork belly, and had a strange aftertaste. The burrito was filled up with carne asada, though I wish it had had more cheese.The interior is kind of dump-y, but it's also in the hood kinda, so it's what you'd expect. No one would really come hear expecting glamor and glitz. The staff are cool and easygoing.I'll need to try a couple other things to make a final decision about it.

The only taco shop I'll go to for carne asada fries! I make the 20 min drive to go get my carne asada fries here! We usually get carne asada fries & roll tacos here. The fries are stuffed & they give a good amount. As for the roll tacos, we add pico de gallo to them & it adds a good taste of freshness (makes me feel like I'm eating "healthy" lol) The cashier is always friendly & the wait time can usually be like 10-20mins. The inside has a couple booth tables & 2 entrances to the place. They can get busy during the evening & weekends but totally worth the wait!

This place is authentic, delicious, fast, and affordable. Everything you could ever want in your neighborhood Mexican place, and much better than some over hyped places like tacos El Gordo or Oscars.The location is a bit sketchy, but like come on... Isn't that where the best Mexican food is? And like when I'm done eating, you can feel it on the way out the next day if you know what I mean, but that only adds to the excellence that is Humerto's! But actually though, I wouldn't overdo it on their salsa as it can be quite spicy.Overall, I'd absolutely recommend this as a go to quick take out place for authentic and cheap Mexican food!

This place is pretty unassuming, but serves up some legit California burritos. Parking could be difficult (as it it is only street parking next to a tire shop and the residential), but I was able to find a parking spot right across the shop. I walked up to the counter and the cashier was very friendly and helpful. I ordered 2 California burritos. We sat down on the tables and waited for our orders. After a short wait, we got our burritos and I was able to ask for the salsa verde and salsa roja. If you're in the mood for dessert, there was a lady selling desserts (I'm unsure if they were unaffiliated or affiliated with the restaurants) and they looked pretty good.The burrito was worth the wait. I took the first bite and was satisfied....the combination of beef and fries was great! The addition of the salsa verde made it even better! I decided to add the salsa roja and was pleasantly surprised by how spicy it was. Be careful with the red sauce!

Absolutely terrible fries. So soggy and drenched in oil.Never coming again. Gross and disgusting to say this is carne asada fries after making an actual edible and beautiful one the first time I been here. Quite the bamboozling experience

Humberto's is always amazing!! The food is great and the price is fare. Great customer service and I like the new upgraded amenities - i.e. new menus board and new wooden ceiling. There is also added security cameras. The line was long but it moved quickly. The carne asada burrito was juicy and tender. The chicken asada was well seasoned. I come here all the time when I am coming from LA. Nobody does taco shops like the way they do it in San Diego! 5

The food at Humberto's was good, I really don't have much to say about the place because I went through their drive thru.

Decided to try the California burrito and sooo disappointed. Super dry and no sour cream. It couldn't even be saved with the red salsa bc even that was bad.
