    Friendly staff and good food. I'm really picky with California burritos, and they did a pretty good job at making them. Of all the restaurants I've had a California burrito, there's only one other place I'd go to for a California burrito besides here, and that's El Parque in Fallbrook. I know that's a drive, but I live closer to there was just in the area today to visit this awesome restaurant.

    First of all everyone is so nice here. It is so refreshing. I love the Salsa both red and green are delicious. Graciela’s Tacos are my favorite along with the veggie burrito. And don’t forget the chips and the American guacamole Graciela’s is my favorite taco shop highly recommend!

    The lady that took our order was so nice and friendly. The place was clean and very large for a taco shop. I got three different street tacos and my wife and daughter split a special, Carne asada burrito and three rolled tacos. Everything was very good. The special was only only $11.
