this place tops EVERY taco place i've ever had. they do not play with the tacos and load them up. the fries were the BEST asada fries and i dream about them; they're crunchy and soft in the middle i would say i wish they added more crema other than that still fire. the only thing they need to add is a to go bc it's a dine in only. other than that 100/10.

Hi, Mara. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!
I love that they are on this side now. It was a solid taco. Nothing explosive about it but it was solid. Service was good, ambiance was typical taco shop. My tripas wasnt crunchy like i like, they add beans if you ask con todo which i think code for less meat.

Hi Simore. Thank you for coming to TEF. Please be sure to tell your waiter/waitress if you would like your tripe extra crispy. We do not add beans on any taco other than Asada. That has been our recipe for 50 years. Clients are welcome to request their Carne Asada taco with no beans. Thanks again! Hopefully we get it perfect on round 2. Hope we see you again.
Excelente servicio por parte de Blas y la comida estaba muy deliciosa. El flan estaba muy rico también. Recomendadisimo.

BEST TACOS IN THE USA! Great quality meat and tortilla, they are delicious. Great ambience and service too. The tacos come out quick! Suadero Taco 10/10 Al Pastor Taco 10/10 Asada Taco 10/10 Beans were okay, not special.

Hi, Jiselle. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience! We hope you keep coming back =D
I had Tacos El Franc for the first time and it was just too saucy and a little too spicy. My tacos came out pretty fast which I appreciated. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed them, needed lots of napkins and gobbled them up fast. Next time, I would order without sauce and ask for some on the side. I will definitely order the tripa, lengua, adobada and campachana again.

Hi, Arleen. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!
Tacos El Franc's Tijuana location was in the Michelin Guide in the 2024 and 2025. They opened their first San Diego location June 11 2025. There were lines out the door for months. I visited at opening time on a weekday in September and it was not too busy. I noticed Tacos El Franc has one spit for their adobada. Some of their drinks are pre-made so you don't have to wait. I was impressed how quickly you get your food and drinks and get on your way. I tried 3 tacos. Adobada taco came on a thin corn tortilla. It was ... read more

Tacos El Franc is straight-up taco royalty. If you're looking for the best tacos in town, this spot delivers every time. The flavors are bold, the meats are juicy, and the tortillas are always on point. The service? Fast, friendly, and no fuss. You roll up, place your order, and boom, taco heaven. They do serious justice to their legendary Tijuana counterpart. Same soul, same fire, just closer to home. If you know, you know. Totally recommended.

Tacos were tasty! Service was on point and really quick to bring your food and beverage to the table, I'm talking with it a minute. Ambiance was low energy, it may have been it was too early in the morning!

Hi, Rayo. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
I recently visited this restaurant on a Thursday night. The location is in a Mall, so finding parking was a bit of a hassle. We had to wait around 20 minutes to be seated, as the line was somewhat long, but it wasn't too bad. The meat portions were generous, which was definitely a highlight. However, I found the flavors to be a bit off for my taste. The salsa was particularly overwhelming--it was a bit too strong and ended up overpowering the other components of the dish. While the meal had promise, it didn't quite hit the m... read more
