Tacos El G

BEWARE! THEY STEAL YOUR MONEY. DO NOT COME HERE.My partner and I were craving tacos and decided to try this. We ordered 8 carne asada tacos, 1 adobada fries and 1 large horachata. Total was $68 which made me realize we were charged for two adobada fries ($17 EACH). I clarified with drive thru operator we wanted only 1 but she claims she is unable to make a refund and said we needed to leave our info and wait until the manager contact us for the refund. This made my partner upset as these occurrences are rare. I took Helllen's word for it and left his name and number for the manager to call us back for a follow up given his card was used for payment. We didn't take the 2nd adobada fries although we were charged for it. I played back our dash cam recording videos to be sure and it confirms we ordered 1 adobada fries while she had called out two orders to the back chef. Probably long day for her but we want our refund back.It was difficult to enjoy our food after this. Unprofessional, unhygienic, and unflavored food.Update: 6/24/24We were lied to. We never heard back from the shop neither the restaurant. Never received our refund. They totally cashed our money. Will never come back here.The food was disgusting and bland. Total waste of our money. My tacos taste better than these. Needs to be shut down.

One of the famous spots for a post club experience, my best friend and I came to visit at 1AM; even though it is bustling and busy, if you're with good company the 30min wait will pass by so fast. Once you're up there for your order, the meal is ready and good for you within minutes. The cooks are always so kind with needs of extra sauces and cashiers fix you up so fast within 5-10minutes. I would definitely eat again- you're lucky if you get seating, my best friend and I were able to.

I didn't know if I should write a bad review but I feel that I would be doing the public a great disservice if I don't. My friend took me here thinking it was still tacos El Gordo. I noticed that it only said Tacos el G and we asked the cashier before paying if it was the same thing, she said it was the same recipes. We ordered adobada fries and it was literally the grossest fries I've ever had, that guacamole sauce on it, is terrible, as well as the meat. Tacos El Gordo may not be my personal favorite but it's good, please don't go telling people that this is the same thing because it most definitely is not.

I liked the pricing for the food and the very quick service. There was plenty of places to sit and its a great spot if you want quick, cheap tacos. You first pay at the register and then you bring your ticket to the counter and wait for your tacos. I liked the al pastor tacos with everything on it and it was delicious.

I had their tacos before visiting San Diego, but it was my first time coming to this spot. We were supposed to get it to go, but we ate here instead so our food wouldn't get soggy when we got home. The service was good and quick. The staff was friendly and helpful, too. I got Tostada de Lengua and Vampiros de Adobada. The tostada and vampiros were good. The lengua and adobada were tender. The meats were cooked and marinated well. The flavors of the meat blended well with the toppings. They put a lot of meat and toppings. There were only a few tables inside, but more tables were on the patio area. Overall, I recommend this place. The food and service were great. Too bad I do not live around the area, but I'll be back when I come to San Diego again.

This is not Tacos El Gordo. Really wish Google maps would update that this is a different business now because when you get here you feel like it definitely isn't what you are looking for. Tacos El G is not on the level of El Gordo. Came here on a weekend mid day. Place was getting some foot traffic. Fountain drinks were warm, ice machine wasn't working. Big red flags here. They were out of some of the items on the menu which is very basic. The guacamole tasted like stale plastic bag store bought guacamole. Service is below average. Don't fall for the bait and switch.

FireTacos on point fresh hot and full of flavor. Ordering is a little confusing going in the first time making sure you get what you ordered because you pay then hand the kitchen your receipt.

This establishment has been here for decades, sure ownership change , but it's a good taco shop. Asada and Adobada for the combo, ask for onions !. I always sit under the bull , the bull has watched me eat carne asada since i was a young lad .

Rolled up to Tacos El Gordo and I saw a huge line, wrapped around, and a full parking lot. I decided to just google the nearest taco shop and this popped up.I was extremely surprised. The adoba felt "cleaner" than Tacos El Gordo. The Carne Asada was AMAZING I don't think I've had carne asada taste that good anywhere else before.If you are thinking of going to Tacos El Gordo and you don't want to wait in a huge line, or would like something very similar, I would recommend coming here.

Idk why this place still open, I gave them a one last try and still messing up my meals. Drove from far away to give them a chance but service still bad as like 3 years ago. Seems like the owner doesn't really care about service since they similar tacos as tacos el gordo so people falls for it. Thanks for ruining our dinner you can have the $4 from the carne asada taco we were missing for my daughter. Oh by the way I tried calling like five times but no answer if I recall last time we got tacos from here I we tried calling as well but never answer.
