Alvaro's Mexican Food, San Diego, California Restaurant Details

Food:

I like the al pastor tacos and fast service

Food:

I really want to love this place since it's closest mexican place to home, but the food is not even mediocre, it's bad. Meat doesn't taste good at all, and I tried carne asada, carnitas, shimp and fish tacos. Breakfast was 'eh'. W/o hyperbole, I really don't know how they're still in business. So many better places on Poway Rd : Oscars, Armados.

Food:

These people either don't speak English or are retarded, I go with retarded..

3 times in a row I asked for their green hot sauce, 3 times in a row I got red hot sauce.

Looks like i'm the fool after the 3rd time, I guess I just couldn't imagine these people being that much of a screw up, I was wrong.

Food:

This place always cures my late night cravings. The food is quite good, obviously it's not the best you'll ever have, but it certainly hits the spot everytime for me. I usually get a breakfast burrito or carne asada fries. The price is fair, not super cheap but won't break the bank and service is relatively fast most of the time.

Food:

Came here on the hunt for carne asada fries at 2am ... I came to the wrong place.

First, the good: Open 24 hours.

Now, the bad: The service is really bad. The woman working the drive through was talking to me as if I wasn't even there, completely rude an aloof. The food was bad, and I mean BAD. I got carne asada fries based on the reviews, and the carne asada was completely unseasoned. Just straight grilled meat. The fries were also unseasoned and had no flavor whatsoever. The "guacamole" on top was just mashed avocados, again unseasoned. The red salsa would have been good on a burrito but didn't make sense on the fries. Thankfully I had salt at home; when was the last time you had to add salt to Mexican food?

Bad service, bad food. I won't be coming back for sure.
