They have amazing homemade tortillas which sets them apart from other taco spots. The suadero was spicy and flavorful, the favorite of the meats we tried. The adobada had pineapple in it which added a sweet and savory flavor, but was hoping it also came with the same spicy sauce as the suadero.

Hands down the BEST lengua tacos I've ever had the privilege to devour. This location is located inside Westfield mall and is a sit down joint.

First time trying Tacos El Franc Placed a phone order for takeout, server had a hard time hearing since music was kind of loud in the restaurant. Location is at Westfield Plaza Bonita Mall.

My family and I had the best tacos we've ever had while visiting San Diego. We were told this place has the best tacos with Mexican flavor, so we decided to drive over. What a pleasant surprise! Yes, I felt like I was eating tacos in Mexico. Everything is delicious: the asada tacos, campechano tacos, tripas tacos, and my favorite, the vampiro of lengua. We ordered horchata and orange water, both delicious. The staff is very friendly. Saúl, our server, greeted us with a smile and took our order right away. He was very kind an... read more

Tacos El Franc is hands down one of the best taco spots I've been to. The hospitality is on another level! The owner even shared a specialty that's not on the menu. Food was fresh, flavorful, and made with so much love. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to!
