I have a quick stay for business in San Diego this week and I'd like to find a good mexican place. I will be staying on Mira Mesa Blvd. but I will have a car. Any suggestions?? Thanks in advance....

Hi EmilyC..
There is a Tio Leo's that is good right off Mira Mesa Blvd and also a Border's Restaurant on Mira Mesa Blvd too..

For really good authentic Mex, I love Hacienda de Vega in Escondido..it is a hike but delicious..

You can also go to an area in between Del Mar and Solana Beach called Eden Gardens and they have Fidel's and Don Chuy's along with Tony Jacal's.. all have great Mexican food..
Take 5 North to Via de la Valle go left and turn right at the Fish Market Restaurant/Stevens and then right on Valley avenue ..it is a couple of blocks up..
Roberto's Taco Shop in Solana Beach and Carmel Valley/Del Mar, IMO are the best Taco stands in SD...
I am getting hungry right now..
Fidel's makes the best Chile Relleno and an awesome Chicken Burrito..
Have fun and enjoy the food!

I second the recommendations for Hacienda de Vega and for Fidel's. For quick Mexican food, I like La Especial del Norte on PCH in Encinitas.

Miguel's on Coronado Island has a delicious white cheese sauce for chip dipping.

I really like La Salsa!

YOu have hit the right spot for great Mexican dining! If you want to go to the coast just north of where you will be, here are some suggestions...go to DEl mar Plaza to Epazote's and sit on the patio with their cuervo gold magaritas in the shakers... and taste some fine interesting twists on some Mexican favorites...Best take out is Roberto's (Torrey Pines, Solana Beach)- That has been the best take out for the last 40 years! other popular north county beach mexican spots are Los Olas and world-famous Fidels...Juanitas in Encinitas has great take out too. Fast fish tacos are at Rubio's, but the best are at The Brigintine which sits over the Del Mar racetrack. There are tons more..
After all, this is our food genre!

wondering..I love Juanita's too..
Also, Happy Hour at the Brigantine anywhere in SD is fab..Fish Tacos rock.

Does Brad still own Epazote's?
Las Olas rocks too..
Thanks for sharing!
My favorite dive bar is Kraken next door to Las Olas..
dwooddon..I love Especial del Norte..the Chicken Tortilla Soup is outstanding and the tacos and quesadilla's are yummy too..
