I had heard and read so much talk about this place being the best in Tijuana so we had to come try! I was worried there was going to be a long line at lunchtime on a weekend, but we got seated right away. There's a nice amount of space both inside and outside. The service was great and very fast once you order! What we got: - Adobada tacos - can be spicy for kids but love that it's guacamole not creamy sauce - Asada tacos - loaded with meat, BEANS, and guac! - Suadero taco - brisket - tried it because it was part of the to... read more

Tacos are decent, just overpriced for how small they are. We've been there six times and only once felt it was really worth it. Service is a bit slow, but if you can't make it to TJ for the real deal, this place works as a backup.

Came here with my brother since we kept seeing Taco El Franc all over Instagram and wanted to give it a try. It's located inside the mall, which already makes parking a bit of a headache. We ordered most of the meats on the menu hoping to get that TJ-style taco experience, but honestly the meats were so bland. The only thing that really stood out was the salsa, which ended up saving the tacos. Service was excellent and the ambiance was great, but the food just didn't deliver. It was disappointing enough that we ended up he... read more

OK yeah these tacos were really good, I got adobada, tripas and asada and they were so good. I think the salsa's help so much, that red arbol salsa, I can drink it, but don't worry I won't. The michelada with clamato was good but honestly I was there for the tacos and they did not disappoint, they do give tacos El Gordo some competition but depending on what mood I am in and how long the line is, I may or may not have to do a quarter toss up to pick.

Tripa is my favorite so good! Crispy, with salsa on top, it's incredible. We came a bit early because we were worried about a long line. It's almost a full house but no line, perfect! My server is so nice and friendly, and all the staff walk around checking on the tables. This place is clean and full of smiles. As for the price, I feel it's reasonable for the portion, quality, and flavor you get.

Came in on a busy Sunday afternoon. The tacos here are absolutely amazing -- fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made! Every bite felt like a little trip to taco heaven. The service was just as incredible as the food. Arlette went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed, greeting me with a warm smile and checking in often without ever being intrusive. She's friendly, attentive, and truly made our visit special. Can't wait to come back! I do not understand where these 3..4 star reviews come from definitely have t... read more
