I had a hankering for breakfast so I got huevos a la mexicana. they loaded it with lightly heated green bell peppers, onions and tomatoes NOT pico de Gallo the way its supposed to be and the way it says on the menu! The veggies were crunchy and raw & they put so much cheese on it I pulled off about an inch of melted goo. I had to load it with green salsa to eat it. –The beans and rice were good. –The salsas are delicious. –The bacon potatoes breakfast burrito was very good and very tasty. The portions are very generous and the corn tortillas are very good. Ill come back for burritos & tortas not for their plated breakfasts. Next time I’ll make sure its exactly as written on the menu. if you say pico I want pico!

I dined at Sarai’s in late Jan. 2016 and had a decent experience. First off, it is located in a shopping center on the right side of Broadway if you are driving away from Chula Vista Center mall; look for the 7 – 11. I was amazed at the diversity of items that they offered and this is definitely a benefit of dining here. I ordered a California Burrito and the price was right on for the giant size that it is. It was ok, but not standout. I think if they added some flavoring to the carne asada the way that North Gate does it may be better. If they ever relocate they should have a bathroom so if people dine in they can wash their hands before they eat. I am in the area from time-to-time so I may swing back by to try some other items. I was pleased to see a nice amount of seafood options.

It was 9:59 when i came into the taco-shop to order my food I’ve been i costumer from this place since about 4 years ago! And people has been very friendly but un till now 11-01-2015 but the guy that was washing dished looked mad and then when i picked up my order i asked for an application and then the guy told me its only for girls and i feel offended and i responded it wasn’t for me and then he reply again its only for girls, and then he got out and started talking crap at me and then he started calling my girl names and my kid was there watching everything, guy wanted to beat my ass, good thing i have everything on video and if this company doesn’t kick this guy out i will make sure that video go viral so that people can get to know what type of employees we have working in this place! I love this place but we customers don’t need people like that working on our food

I am constantly phoning in California burrito orders. They’re so big and delicious that I haven’t gotten tired of them after having 2 or more a week. Seriously after eating one of those bad boys I can usually skip dinner. They have guac and sour cream for no extra charge which is pretty big for me. They have great breakfast burritos too. I read a few reviews saying they didn’t have much meat??? That’s utter blasphemy as I go here at least once a week and am always blessed with abundant amounts of meat. Also their fries are crispy and that adds a nice texture to each bite. Bigger and better than the competition. The parking sucks but the food more than makes up for it.

Taking some advice from a fellow people on Unilocal!,I made it all the way down to Chula Vista to give Sarai’s Taco Shop a run through. They also have another location out in Lakeside, but that one has very lacking reviews. The CV location seemed to be their central restaurant even though the place is really small inside, the dining area maybe has 7 tables. Right off Broadway towards the south part of Chula Vista, Sarai’s sits in a little strip mall with a even smaller parking lot. Their sign touts breakfast all day, even though their breakfast menu( ) is quite small. Once inside you will notice their menu overhead has quite a variety with their expanded menus on the side. They’re quite proud of their tortas here, they even have a special menu for them, The lady at the register was quite nice and took my order down correctly. The food didn’t take too long at all and she handed me my bag all nicely wrapped and tied up. I got out of there to go enjoy my Mexican food at home. Unfortunately once I finally reached my destination and opened my bag, they seemed to forget a bunch of our food, what a bummer. Chula Vista is too long of a ways away to go back and complain. The food they did end up giving us wasn’t all it was cracked up to be either. The California burrito here will run you about $ 5 and some change. The burrito comes with asada, cheese, fries, and sour cream( ). I never understood how San Diego can’t come up with a standard recipe for this burrito, some places include pico, some guac and the rare sour cream from time to time. Their burritos( ) here are your typical 14″ tortilla size. They certainly didn’t stuff it too much full of meat, it was mostly fries and sour cream really. The asada was cooked okay and was seasoned fine, I could tell that the meat was pre-cooked and simply warmed up though. Their California was definitely not on my favorite list of anything. Their rolled tacos( ) here come in orders of 3 and 5 only serving beef or potatoes. Their standard toppings here are simply guacamole and cheese, which is lame. I had them specially add the lettuce and tomato to top, yet they didn’t add very much tomato to it(of course they still charged me). I can never understand how you could eat rolled tacos without the fresh crisp of lettuce and tomato on top. The rolled tacos were simply okay; they were plenty crispy and had lots of shredded beef inside. They were a bit on the oily side though, and the corn seemed to taste kind of weird. Perhaps the only thing that they do really good here is their hot sauce( ), they serve both red and green. It has a spicy flavor to it and isn’t too thick. Sometimes a watery hot sauce will go in your burrito better than a thick chunky salsa-type. Overall Sarai’s was a big wash for me. It came recommended by some other people as having«huge» massive burritos with lots of flavor. I don’t know if these people have tried other taco shops in SD or what. In my humble opinion, Sarai’s is nothing more than mediocre. The ingredients, service and the way they slap their food together says it all. As you go further south, you’d expect Mexican food to get better.

Came in here yesterday to try their bacon breakfast burrito and torta cubana. The torta deserves 5 stars and the breakfast burrito to me was just average. It was a really big burrito though! We will be back to try different options. **Loved the red salsa!(:

For whatever reason, this place is overlooked and undervalued. They have FANTASTIC food and kicks Lolita’s tired and over-hyped ass. Lolita’s WAS amazing, don’t get me wrong. Over the years though, the quality has fallen and the size of their food just gets smaller and smaller especially the burritos! But I guess that’s what happens when you get extremely popular and want to milk it all. Anyways, I guess more for me and my bf! This place is a hidden gem!!! And I ain’t mad if not too people know about it yet, but then again I guess I’m just being selfish. Plus, I wouldn’t it to turn into a Lolita’s.

Came here for breakfast after going to my bank nearby. I’m glad hubby found this on Unilocal.It was open for breakfast. As we walk in, it’s a small taco shop with a few tables. They have breakfast items especially breakfast burritos. I got the #6 which is the bacon breakfast burrito. I order hubby #7 which is the potato and egg breakfast burrito. I get 2 bottled waters, and one Coke in a bottle for hubby. Total came to around $ 18.00. Not bad for feeding 3 of us. When the burritos were done, I grab the tray. It also came with green salsa verde and a red hot sauce. The burritos were huge. I almost couldn’t finish my burrito. Once I took a bite, it was so good. It has scrambled eggs, cheese, and bits of bacon. I grab the green sauce and put it on top. It was even better tasting with the sauce. So far this place has the best breakfast burritos! The eggs were cooked to perfection while there were bacon bits throughout the burrito and there was a gracious amount of cheese. Yum! The burrito was even good without the sauce. This place ranks pretty high on my list for Mexican food. The parking up front was small and has limited spaces. There was no air conditioning in the taco shop. Taco shop also sells Horchata and Jamaica. Too bad they don’t sell piña cause that is my favorite drink. I definitely recommend this place if you want a breakfast burrito. I definitely have to come back and try other items. I think I will take it to go next time. Gets pretty busy.

Came here based on the reviews for the breakfast burritos so I can’t speak for the other food. The husband and I swung by on the way out of SD to get a ham and cheese breakfast burrito. It was just okay. The tortilla was nice and yummy gooey, but the stuffing was a little monotone. I would have wanted more stuff in there to balance the flavors and give some variation.

Cool lil«hole in the wall». The food is fresh and they give you large portions. Can’t complain about that! The place is clean but is located in a little rundown shopping center. I’ve been here about three times total and every time the food is good with no bad aftereffects if you know what I mean **wink**. It’s located on Broadway and it’s convenient to get to. So if you need a quick bite to eat before you head to the mall which is down the street, this is a good alternative.

The tacos were pretty good, nothing too amazing. Of course, it’s kind of hard for me to love these when my fav are somewhere else. The lady at the register was very busy so she didn’t hear me several times because she was paying attn to other things. I ended up with a fish taco instead of shrimp, but I like fish tacos too, so I can’t complain. The beans were delicious with the cheese on top. Very good prices and even better if you get combo plates!

Sarais is a typical taco shop in my eyes, as far as the ordering and paying methods and the fast service you get but. its a good taco shop. the food is delicious of course im a creature of habit so i tend to stick with the same things but ive picked at my families plates before. Ive become a regular. The two fish taco combo(mY favorite dish here) is the it comes with two fish tacos(which you can make into 4 tacos) and rice and beans. It hits the spot every time Im hungry, ive tried the rolled tacos, i love them plain but packed with flavor, they also have potato rolled tacos, yummm. the chilaquiles are good, burritos are ginormous and good. the prices are average, its good food. the restaurant itself is very small so its good for take out orders but if u decide to dine in there is tables. Id recommend it to anyone look for a delicious quick bite to eat.

Si buscas rapided, calidad y cantidad de cocina mexicana este es un lugar ideal. Los burritos de precio aproximado 6 $ son grandes(nunca me he acabado uno entero). Su carne asada es muy sabrosa. Recomiendo las tortas.
