Como siempre y a pesar de que los tacos son pequeños, el sabor es muy bueno, lamentablemente casi todos los tacos llegaron tibios. La razón por la que le damos 2 estrellas es porque la música está tan alta que no se puede escuchar a las personas que están en tu propia mesa, el mismo "sonsonete" de solo música de banda o ciertos ritmos todo el tiempo también auditivamente cansa y enfada. Definitivamente no es un lugar que recomiendo para ir a comer.

I found Tacos El Frank Bonita to be significantly overpriced for the quality provided. I ordered one adobada taco, and it had far more cilantro and guacamole than actual meat. Unfortunately, the flavor was also disappointing, and the overall quality did not meet expectations. The only positive aspect was the beer, since it is not made in-house. Honestly, I would much rather make the drive to Tijuana, enjoy the real food at Tacos El Frank over there, and have a good time in TJ. Based on my experience, I would not recommend th... read more

Food wasn't that good. Ordered three different tacos, nothing hot, all cold. The pork was so heavily seasoned you couldn't taste the meat. One taco came with a slimy tortilla from all the liquid on the meat. I have been to the TJ location and that was fantastic. This location might need to be skipped. Service was great. Quick and friendly. Appreciated.

Did a to-go order and paid $13 (tax+tip) for a single quesadilla that's the size of a taco... took a bite but it was the size of the tiny plate they give you. Not worth the price at all

Just went to Tacos El Franc for the second time and I just spend $48.02 on really bad tacos, we ordered 2 suadero tacos and looked like the meat was from yesterday and refried shopped in very small pieces and hard to chew, we also ordered 4 cabeza tacos and 1 lengua tacos and the meat was super dry, the only taste you were able to get was from the salsa and the union, the first time that we went the tacos weren't that bad so we decided to give them a second chance and we regretted, I really feel robbed after this bad and exp... read more

Six months after i first tried these "tacos", they still suck. Dry and tasteless just like the owner. 

Business response:

We’re always open to honest feedback, it helps us improve. But when a review compares us to Taco Bell more than it talks about our food, it’s pretty clear it’s not coming from a genuine guest. Our tacos are made fresh daily with real ingredients, slow-cooked meats, and house-made salsas. Which is exactly why our regulars keep coming back. For anyone reading this, don’t just take our word for it (or this review’s). Come try for yourself and taste the difference.

On my 2nd visit, the food went downhill fast. Carne asada was tough and tasteless, mesquite flavor from grilling not coming through. Adobada taco was tasteless as well. Can tell from the lack of long lines that was here previously. Please improve your cooking. San Diego restaurant business is cutthroat with so many restaurants closing. Please do it better so you can stay afloat. Just a concerned customer here.
