Description:
Tijuana Restaurant is as authentic as it gets. It almost feels like a quick trip to Mexico. Maybe that's the reason their burritos aren't amazing, or maybe it's because they're mainly a seafood restaurant. Either way, the burritos fall just about in the middle of the rankings.

They're very large, but also on the expensive side. The meat was surprisingly good and much more like steak than most carne asada. It was very tender and had great flavor, but didn't quite carry throughout the whole burrito. There was a bit too much flavorless rice, but the beans were decent. There was a ton of guacamole and cheese, but not much crema. This was a fork and knife on a plate burrito, unfortunately. And even with the fork and knife, the tortilla still couldn't hold together. The chips and salsa were good but not great. I would definitely suggest going to Tijuana, but get caldo or seafood instead of a burrito.

Other Notes:
Comes with chips and a very mild salsa and a spicy salsa.
