This may be the best authentic home-style Mexican food in San Diego. If it isn't, it's certainly near the top of the list.

Where to even start.......

First of all, don't worry that you may wildly out of place if you are, like me, a gringo who doesn't know what anything is. They'll be happy to not only give you samples of things, but also to suggest things you'll like (and steer you away from things you may not like). My first time there I didn't even have a chance to order before they'd offered me five samples, all of which were delicious. Not just good, delicious.

Secondly, this is a buffet type place and many entries will change every day. So while I thought the mustard chicken was one of the most original dishes I've had in my life, you'll probably never get to try it. This is a good thing, because you don't want to get bored with this place. It's a restaurant you want to come back to and try new creations. Supposedly there are over 100 recipes in regular rotation here, with about 20 available each day.

Bottomline - If there is Mexican soul food, this is it. Eating here makes me happy. And you'll get food here you aren't likely to find anywhere else. It's honest Mexican. Honest food of the people.

Also, this is home style. That means you'll be eating meat off the bone with just about everything, and there will be plenty of cartilage involved. So don't get flustered when you bite into something hard, because it's suppose to be there. The technique is to suck the meat off the bones rather than just start chewing. Bones = flavor, and you can taste the difference. in fine dining place this would be unacceptable, but here it's part of the attraction. But don't be fooled - Spend a bit of time having the owner talk to you and you'll quickly realize this is a restaurant that cares about food as much as any.

Don't look for tacos and burritos here. It's not that kind of place. What you want here is meat stewed in flavor. Also don't look for the salsa bar, because the food already tastes the way it's suppose to.

I have heard, but can not confirm, that the standard process for this place is to hire Mexican home cooks and then have them cook what they're best at. Thus, you get real Mexican food that changes all the time. Damn fine idea.

Tourist advice - If I was a tourist I would not feel comfortable going to a strange city in a rental car with a map I printed off the Internet and then driving around this area of San Diego. It's not what I would call a "bad neighborhood", but it's certainly not touristy. Having said that, I have *always* felt welcome here and gotten great service.

Uhm that place sounds

Uhm that place sounds delicious! I love stews and certainly they don't need salsa. In fact people should add those things to special food (except hamburguers, hot dogs and those kind of things), it ruins the scense of the meal itself. I know it because many americans came to my dad's restaurant and added ketchup to a juicy and delicious argentinian beef...no way!!!(I know american's meat is not so tasty so they need to add things but not in argentina!)
