I got 2 asada and 2 adobada tacos and I was disappointed. I had high expectations for this places so I’m rating them hard. The asada wasn’t the best quality and the tortillas were stiff. At $3.5 a taco they’re not cheap and should have higher quantity meats. They were good but definitely not the best in town. Their spiciest salsa was spicy but didn’t have good flavor. The lower 2 salsa were good in flavor.

Quality eats, quick service, and awesome salsa bar. Lily is very sweet and has an amazing staff that will have your tacos out in no time!! Definitely recommend the cabeza and make sure you order the sides of onions!! It is the icing on top!!

Some of the best tacos I’ve ever had, and I’ve been all over the world. First time having cachete and cabeza, just as good as lengua if not better 😮‍💨 I would recommend adding grilled green onion bulbs to the menu, and add a bit more spice/heat to the salsas. Regardless though, this is THE spot to visit if you want authentic tacos!!!

Service is what it is, this is a taco truck sized operation running out of a brick and mortar location. The menu is limited in size but vibrant and plentiful in variety of meats. Lingua? Tripe? Yes please 🙏 I especially adore the toppings bar so you can finish dressing your $3.50 tacos however you wish.

I took the scenic route on my way to San Diego to stop at Lilly’s Taqueria! My friend would go on and on about this place and I can see why! Best tacos I’ve had in a while! I had the asada and adobada.The girl that was gonna take our order was busy with a customer on the phone but the two ladies in the kitchen noticed we were ready to order and stepped in to help her out by taking out order and had those tacos out quickly! That shows extreme team effort and professionalism. They have two toppings bar with onion, cilantro, salsa, and more! The spicy salsa is spicy!and that’s coming from a true Mexican. I would definitely take the scenic route again just to have Lilly’s tacos again.
