Arelis Taco Shop serves us authentic Mexican food. We tried the fish tacos and Pastor Tacos which we enjoyed. The others with us had the Pollo Asada Tortas and Chicken Enchilada plate which were also good. You can get Tacos ala carte for $4.99-$5.50.

I have been to this venue many times and it’s always serving quality burritos. I have never experienced a bad meal here. Don’t sleep on this place as they have great California burritos and tacos. The service is friendly and quick too.

High quality carnitas. Whatever everything else. Thought they may use fake Quac but I think it was just not super fresh. Fries could definitely be more crispy. Finished the whole plate and enjoyed none the less.

Great food and very friendly service. Mini tacos were done perfect. Wife got the caldo de res which was tasty and filling. Well worth the stop.

Went here for the first time tonight finally to mix it up from my usual spots. Cabeza, and Lengua tacos were delicious! Cali burrito was awesome. The salsa’s are some of my favorite i have had in San Diego! Quick, delicious, and super friendly. I’ll be a regular from now on

I absolutely love the tacos here — hands down the best in the area! The rolled tacos are amazing, and don’t even get me started on the pambazos… soooo delicious! The service is super friendly, and we felt very comfortable the whole time. Everything looks incredibly clean too! We’ll definitely be back!

I’ve been to every taco shop in Pacific Beach and a lot of other taco shops in San Diego. There are some alright shops. This place is amazing. The. carnasada meat is fresh cooked perfect. It’s a family owned restaurant. They take pride in what they do. Very nice and care about the people that come there and treat everyone like family. I always watch how they treat first time customers. Best taco shop in Pacific Beach and San Diego. If you want authentic Mexican food and cuisine. This is your destination. Julio and Lulu are the Best.
