Came here Sunday morning as a part of our quest to find the BEST breakfast burrito in North County. Love Lourdes and have been coming here for years. Super cute and next to the water. They are always super nice and accommodating for my modifications and you can't beat the price! My HUGE burrito came to 10$ even though I added avocado AND bacon. AND they give you free chips AND have a huge salsa bar! The quality of the burrito was great. Large enough to eat one half for different meals. Not greasy either! The tortilla was beautiful. Wasn't homemade but that's okay because it was warm and toasty and perfectly wrapped and not too much extra tortilla Beautiful ratio of ingredients but wish it had a tad more avocado. Sadly, the flavor was a little lacking!! It needed lots of salt and pepper. But with those additions it was great. Lastly, can we talk about the distribution!? It was perfect!Overall solid 8/10 breakfast burrito. Sadly my roommate got the bean egg and cheese burrito and was totally not a fan. Her beans ended up all on one side and all the eggs on the other... :( beans had great flavor though!

I'm not saying that the Shrimp Burrito at this place is the best thing since sliced bread, but it's definitely the best thing since sliced avocado! The open salsa bar is like a playground for your taste buds. I mean, who doesn't love a good game of "guess the salsa" with their burrito? The place is so clean, you could eat off the floor. But please don't, that's just weird. And the phone ordering system is so easy, it's like ordering a pizza. Except it's not a pizza, it's a burrito. And it's way better than a pizza. So if you're looking for a place to grab a burrito before catching the sunset at the ocean, look no further. This place is the real deal.

With all the visits we've made to Lourdes over the years, I can't believe I haven't left a review. Lourdes is a must-stop when we visit Cardiff. We have camped at San Elijo State Park often over the years and would really get excited about lunch at Bull Taco. The view was what made it. However, if we had been completely honest with ourselves, we would have to admit that Lourdes, across the street, has hands down better food. I'm a chile relleno fan and their plates with beans or the Chile relleno burrito are to die for. And the chicken soup..... oh my. The best flavor and oh so filling. We stopped in for breakfast on all three days of our visit to Cardiff and shared the chorizo burrito, the chile relleno burrito and the chicken soup. Each entree was delicious; I personally enjoyed the chile relleno burrito the most. I must have made four trips to the salsa bar trying their amazing flavors. We returned on Taco Tuesday and shared three tacos: shrimp, fish and spicy pork. The corn tortillas were strong enough to hold in all the filling yet soft. They are medium size and enough to share. Each two had wonderful flavor and veggie-accompaniment to the meat. Delish. The ambience is casual and has that beach-worn feel. The staff are always friendly and seem happy to come to work. Prices are very reasonable for the area and portion sizes are enough to share. Come hungry and leave very satisfied.

Possibly the best Mexican food in North County San Diego. Amazing flavors, authentic tortillas,and a clean environment. The Al pastor burrito is best I have ever tasted. The wait is reasonable and worth it!

Limited parking in the front. Several tables inside and out, but inside can get chilly with the garage door open. Service is friendly and efficient. They do ask for a tip on the iPad while order, but it's self seat, pickup, drink. I'm not sure what the tip is for. Everything is self service. Burritos are BIG. Food is decently priced for the area and portions are larger than average, so that makes it a good value. The food is tasty as well. The carne Asada is tender and delicious. Decent food, friendly service, would definitely go.

SOOOO good! This has been my go-to burrito spot for years and their California burrito is to die for. I always get their chipotle crema on the side and dip my burrito with their salsa too. The burritos are huge and the service is always really nice. The location is really close to the beach and is a perfect place to get food to go.Parking can be a bit tight in their actual lot but you can always find parking nearby.5/5, absolutely amazing food!

Been to Lourdes in Encinitas a dozen times last five years now. Food has been good up until a few weeks ago. Placed two orders of food and both orders were not made correctly, and looked like crap.We were 20 minutes gone from there, and weren't turning around to go back.We tossed the poor-excuse for Mex into the trash. $18 down the tubes.Maybe their cook quit and they hired a plumber to cook Mex. Regardless- the food looked like garbage
