Been going here nearly 10 years. 1000s of drinks and snacks, and the kitchen has good, inexpensive food. Shawarma is my favorite, and they have good fries.

I just had some Mexican food here, it was the worst. My friend loves the food and I think its just a very unique taste to like. I had beef and I kept tasting fish. Nothing tasted like it should had. not even the rice. my favorite part was the beans.I would have gave it a lower rating but my friend likes it so much i hope its just my one time experience.All you people that love this food must have already had a few beers before tasting it, I have been with a stinky face expression for more than 10 minutes. I know Im being dramatic but dam man this was bad.Very weird color to the meat.

My cousin and I placed an order for one of your most famous items, and we were pleasantly surprised by how quickly it arrived.

The hamburger tasted good even though the meat looked a little bit off. Another time I had an egg burrito with chicken and avocado which was good. And another time I had some sort of I think its the Indian wrap. It had tahini sauce and some crispy chicken. I liked it. The pickles were odd but I still liked it.

Grabbed lunch here (order window at the back, pay at the front when you get your food!) twice while on jury duty. Tasty food and great prices! Its pretty popular as there was a line both times I went.

What a find! Not much to look at outside, or inside for that matter. But the Mexican food was made immediately as we ordered, fresh and delicious (with plenty of salsa!) I had the carnitas burrito, with perfectly cooked pork. The tacos al pastor also got rave reviews. I took a school group of teenagers there for lunch. They filled all our orders in 20 minutes, and we ate in the courthouse park one block away. Perfect!

Andrew has helped support the arts by trusting me to shoot a scene for one of my student films in his market during his business hours without meeting me first. Saving me a whole lot of money and time, he continued to accommodate throughout the night.But, as we spent a few hours on a Saturday night, I feel I can confidently say that Andrews genuine disposition and well managed store is rare. Perhaps a symptom of a small city, Ive never seen customers face light up so much as he would greet almost all of them on a first name basis.As for the products, I would say his liquor section is the best part as he carries some of the most sought out whiskey in the world (Pappy Van Winkle) alongside a grand display of other booze, but thats hard to say when the rest of his shop is also so intelligently stocked up. You are bound to find what you are looking for within reason. *cough* The booze is the best part *cough*.Oh, and...it also has some delicious home-made food (vegan and vegetarian options).Go to Presidio market just to say hi for god sake! Also, Andrew, if you are reading this, open up a market in LA!

Review №26

This place is well kept, has a good selection relative to other liquor/mini-marts in the area, and is staffed by chill people.That being said, TERRIBLE prices. I once bought a single New Belgium Ranger that came out to be around $5.40. I thought that was just a fluke, but I went back today for a tall can of Rolling Rock. $3 + 50 cents for using my card. Seriously? Foodland on San Andres sells the same for around $1.75 after tax.

I got SB Menus to deliver me a chicken enchilada with beans and rice and sour cream to me, the plate itself costing 8.74. I. LOVED. EVERY. BITE. The beans have an awesome taste, that being said, I know everyone likes styles of beans different, but to me they were not your standard canned refried beans, they were tasty! And the rice was pretty decent (no one makes it better than my momma, sorry guys ;P ) I will SO order again when I need my lunch :) The price is decent, considering the amount I got, and how bad sometimes the mexican food can be even at super fancy places with higher prices. This was awesome, thanks guys!

Food in the back of restaurant is good but 3 consecutive times Ive been there and had problems.First time I asked for a quesadilla and got a burrito instead.Second I waited too long for my order, only to have the cook laugh and tell me he dropped my food on the floor, waited even longer with nothing to compensate for it.Third time I got way overcharged because it was kind of a off menu request but shouldnt have affected a price change.

I grew up in Santa Barbara and this has always been a favorite. Lived near by and hands down the best cheeseburger in town. Along with their quesadillas and buritos all for a fair price. Booze can get a bit expensive but can be worth the convenience. Not many places left like this in downtown sb so I would recommend checking it out.

Open until midnight and you can go buy something whenever you are hungry in the middle of the night. Deli is hidden at the far end of the hallway, which is lined with alcohol and drinks. It is the Mexican uncle who guards the deli kitchen. Just the food there is rich and hungry.On the night after the rain trail, we stopped home and bought a salad. The chicken salad contains a tremendous amount of spiced chicken for quesadillas and tacos. Both ate very well.Its a good place to go when youre hungry rather than when you want to eat something delicious.
