Best Mexican in SD
Reviewed By madball911 Jan 03, 2008

My husband and I went here for lunch just the other day. I had the lomo en cerveza, which was absolutely amazing. Pork tenderloin that flaked with a fork, topped with a beer sauce, with sauteed spinach(?) and fried potatoes on the side. I've never had anything like this before, and I can't wait to have it again. My husband had the parrilla ranchera, a skillet-mix of beef (or chicken), bacon, onions, and green and red bell peppers, topped with cheese. This was good, but way too greasy. (But with beef, bacon, and cheese, you're gonna have greasy.) We brought the leftovers home, and drained them thoroughly on paper towels - better that way. The salsas brought with the (homemade) chips when you're first seated are all good - the best was the tomatillo-cilantro. There were 3 others, one was more tomatoe-y, one smokey from chipotles, and an orange-ish one that I swear had pumpkin seeds in it. Both of us can't wait to go back!

"The Vega's intent is to bring to San Diegans an experience of the true, non-Americanized Mexico, and thus the menu contains items that can surprise. Sabana Invierno ("winter quilt") is a soul-warming hearty plate of beef tenderloin, with beans accented wi..."
