Күн бұрынBEST CALIFORNIA BURRITO IN SAN DIEGO - Find out why everyones top 5 california burritos list will be different and what makes the perfect cali burrito.
In this video we explore the best California Burritos in San Diego. You will learn what differentiates one California Burrito from one mexican food restaurant to the other.
Although this is a Top 5 California Burritos in San Diego video, I believe that everyone will have a different opinion of the TOP 5 California Burritos and thats OK!
There is a formula when finding your perfect California Burrito spots and it partly has to do where in town you grew up in!
Instead of complaining about it in the comments section, how about we help each other out and just give out our own personal top 5 so people who visit San Diego can decide for themselves when visiting!
We will also explore different "Types" of California Burritos in which I will label and give a reason why I label a particular burrito in a certain category.
Want to find out THE BEST CALIFORNIA BURRITO? Find out NEXT!
What is your favorite California Burrito? What is your Top 5? Are you from San Diego?

The dude that bagged your burrito at JV's was the owner. Humble dude. I wen't to Bonita High with him and his cousins. They own 50% of the taco shops in San Diego including Los Panchos, Burros amd Fries, Cotijas, Lolitas, La fuente, and many others. This family made different restaurants to capitalize on all customer base. Pure genius. I grew up on Lolitas. It was the go to spot after parties. But Burros and Fries changed the game in my opinion.

Calif Burritos is the only place where I will eat a burrito since it's lighter, and not heavy. They get the mesa and stretch it, so the tortilla is thinner & lighter & they grill the burrito. I get the mini size & extra grilled with grilled chicken, guacamole and pico de gallo. They don't put rice and beans in their burrito which is more authentic. I skip the lettuce and sour cream and they seem to put more chicken. I don't think their rice and beans are too good. I visited there a few weeks ago, and it was perfect.

Lolitas is the best for me! It’s all about the salsa too... a lot of these places lack on the flavor of the salsa... very watered down or vinagery bc they want it to last as they make large batches. Lolitas is top quality meat and they make it fresh so call ahead bc you can be waiting a long time 20+ minutes, I’ve waited 40 once. Ball park was my go to location as I worked in DT San Diego. The Lolitas red salsa is flavorful and a hint of spice but not too much. I always asked for extra and it was heavenly.

Excellent video! I appreciate the way you dissect the burrito to see the ingredients. There are tons of great Taco Shops in all of San Diego county and you found some great contenders. I love to see you head inland a bit to Spring Valley. Next time, head another 5 minutes down the 94 to Hilbertos in Rancho San Diego. The carne is sooo good there. Also, In my opinion, the best Lolitas is the one in Bonita. Finally, some shops will put beans in it as well, which adds a whole other dimension to the classic California burrito. You should eventually do a “round 2” based off of suggestions found in the comments :)

Shout out to Vallarta's for filling out my late night cravings! Highly recommend their off-menu "Christian Burrito" if you want something slightly extra in your California Burrito. It's the same carne asada, guac, sour cream, salsa fresca, cheese, and fries, but you get bacon bits and a fried egg that coats the fries juuuust right with its yolk, giving just an extra level of fatty, silky unctuousness that you can cut down / contrast with red sauce. God I miss San Diego Burritos.

I’ll be in SD next month so I’m going to check out a few of those burritos shops. Normally I don’t like California burritos because there is too much going on in them. I had my first one at a Padres game a few years ago. Also they are always soooo huge! Instead I’m a big fish taco fan. But you’ve made me change my mind. I have a friend that used to live in Spring Valley and he took us a little hole in the wall place that had the BEST food. Can’t remember the name of the place but I remember their pickled carrots!

Fish tacos are amazing! Yes, give the California Burrito another try.. I had one at a padres game and can say its not the same. Still ok but not straight from the original spots! Have a fun time Anna!

I grew up in the Southbay and been to all of them. Great Cali Burritos but honestly Chuy's Taco Shop off of El Cajon Blvd has the best California Burrito. The whole thing blends in just right!

Grew up in San Diego and been to many SD Taco Shops growing up and you guys are spot on. I have been to Lolita, Cotixan, JVs 👍🏼👍🏼 and can definitely vouch for them. Honorable mention El Azteca in La Mesa. Super legit and used to go here when I worked at the hospital. Give it a try!!

Used to go to El Azteca in the 80s and 90s. Didn't know they were still there. Really good food.

As per @TeamAdriana California Burrito is an american creation, not known in Mexico(not sure about TJ). In any case in Oceanside the place to get it is Valerie's Taco Stand at Camino Town and Country Shopping Center (from El Camino Real), for $9.49 you will get beef, french fries, cheddar cheese, and either guac or sour cream.
@Jaycation 3 жыл бұрын
Definitely not known in Mexico! In fact, I think it became a San Diego thing in the late 90s... When i was a kid, I ate just Carne Asada Burritos, it wasn't until the late 90s that California Burritos started showing up in many mexican food menus around town. Valerie's was good! Thanks for that suggestion back in the Oceanside video.
@cjlomeli1137 3 жыл бұрын
Yea, definitely not a Mexican thing! No fries, rice or sour cream! But whatever
@GrumpyCat24 6 ай бұрын
True. California burritos didn't come around until the 90s. Not authentic Mexican. Basically a breakfast burrito. Never cared for French fries in burritos. Seems like a tourist thing

They were really nice! I have a few friends and family that swear by El Puerto and when i did research, it always popped up. Definitely a great spot especially with the hash browns. What is your favorite food to order there?

El Puerto is hands down the best taco shop. They have the best carne asada EVER. I work at the 7-11 next door for years, so I had my fair share of Mexican food from them.

Thanks for this yummy burrito tour. I do love Lolita’s thou is pricey for the size of food they serve. I grew up here most of my life and one exceptionally good hole in the wall borders golden hills and barrio Logan. Check out Adalberto’s on market street / 25th. The bomb food! Before the burrito craze. They were already established here for sometime. Enjoy!
