This lively Barrio Logan spot delights with delicious tacos made from fresh house-made tortillas, all served in a vibrant, artsy atmosphere.
"One of a handful of taco spots in San Diego that pulls off legit TJ style tacos, located right next to La Bodega Gallery. The vibe of the interior is solid, with community style picnic tables, and walls covered with ephemera celebrating the Barrio and So-Cal culture. Don’t sleep out on their aqua fresca of the day, and def save room for their churro and ice cream dessert (it’ll serve two people unless you’re going big). Favorite tacos are the Taco De Barrio, Pollo Asado, Veggie, and can’t go wrong with the Carne Asada." - Product Etc.
"¡Salud! continues to please both locals and visitors to Barrio Logan with delicious tacos, solid drinks, and a thumping kickback soundtrack. The Califas taco — a homage to San Diego’s own California Burrito — is a must. The Barrio taco, loaded with braised beef, peppers, nopal and beans is as homestyle as it gets. Vegetarian options are also available." - Mario A. Cortez, Candice Woo
"This Barrio Logan icon features a California burrito, and a pretty good one at that, although its Califas taco might be the must-order take on the San Diego invention. Carne asada, or your choice of protein, along with the burrito’s classic fillings and garnishes are placed in a smaller flour tortilla, creating a new way to experience the tried and true dish." - Mario A. Cortez, Candice Woo
"Ernie Becerra may be best known as the founder of Barrio Logan’s ¡SALUD! Tacos “but his family’s love language was truly music,” states the menu at the La Bamba Room, which Becerra recently opened adjacent to his popular taco shop." - Kelly Bone
"This Barrio Logan standout isn’t shy about projecting its personal brand of SoCal cool—from walls adorned with local art and skateboards, to a soundtrack that booms loud enough to be heard down the block. The substance behind the swagger, though, is what makes patrons line up: these are some of the best tacos in town. Classics like carne asada vie for attention alongside distinctly Californian options like a killer breakfast taco composed with corn and flour tortillas respectively—both are house-made and wonderfully fresh. Veggie options, like a chile relleno taco featuring charred poblano and fried cheese, are every bit as delicious.Seasonal agua fresca (spiked with tequila, or not) and a spectacular house Michelada will enhance your taco-fueled bliss." - Michelin Inspector
