Lucha Libre Taco Shop - Taco restaurant in San Diego - 3016 University Ave, USA

This one is a tough one but I think it deserves 5 stars simply because of taste and quality of tacos. Pricey and not very big, tacos start at 4.50 and can go up to $6. Got a surf and turf taco as well as an adobada taco. Some of the best adobada I’ve had - tasted delicious and cooked perfectly. Carne asada was nothing special but the shrimps took the taco to another level. Free chips and salsa with every order - chips were super fresh and salsa was very tasty! Interesting decor, not sure what it has to do with the store but the taste of the tacos make up for the gimmicky environment. Interesting juice store next door connected via a hole in the wall! Did not try it, but some of the things looked pretty tasty. Give this place a shot. A bit pricey but what isn’t these days? Delicious tacos!

We got reservations for the Champion's Booth and were blown away by the quality of the service we recieved! The food was presented in a really luxurious way, with golden tableware and beautiful plating. I was especially impressed by the chips and salsa trophy! I ordered the Plucking Chicken California burrito and my partner ordered the Birria California Burrito. Both were so delicious and VERY filling! The handwritten thank you card included at the end of the service was so incredibly sweet and really made our night! I'll definitely be coming back and can't recommend the service enough, you genuinely feel like a champion! 😄

TBH I only came here to try the tacos and salsa. I ordered the steak, adobada, and birria tacos with a side of horchata drink. My favorite was the adobada tacos. It has great flavor and none of the tacos were oily. They all had good portion of meat. i only saw one staff and one cook. She had a great customer service and was very attending. The place was clean which is also a +. I love that i can go to a taco shop where they actually have a legit decent salsa bar & they don't charge you extra! My favorite was the avocado cilantro creama. I would recommend to go there on a weekday before 12pm when it's less busy. As for parking, well it's on university ave.. so parking is always difficult to find. This review is only for the customer service and tacos.

Food was great! The lights were flickering the whole time we were there. Service was great, and the staff was kind. The Mexican wrestling theme was so fun! The Suplex Quesadilla was great, super cheesy! Overall a very great Mexican place with great food, a great atmosphere, and great staff!

Had a birria quesa taco and mahi taco, absolutely delicious. Salsa bar had very delicious options.. Chips were given to us immediately, but tasted rancid, frying oil might need some changing.

This is the second time I come here and I’m disappointed by their California burrito. They charge $15 for it, they add very little stake, it’s very dry as it is mostly fries in the burrito. Their salsas were also all watered down and flavor less. I used to go to the one on Washington as good was consistent but not anymore. Will not be coming back.

Rare instance of “worth the hype” in my book. Popped in for a lunch time veggie burrito and omg did not disappoint. Shout out to Fernando for top of the line customer service. Friendly. Helpful. Competent. I would return to this establishment because of him!

Me and some friends stopped by for a quick bite in the evening, I ordered the birria burrito. I enjoyed the flavor of the birria but didn’t end up liking French fries in my burrito so it killed the overall taste for me. Place was nice to sit in and enjoy the decor but expected more out of the food menu.
