    I ordered the California burrito. A must buy every time I visit Cali! I cut it in half to show the inside. (Might have taken a bite) This burrito was very tasteful and well cooked. The cheese they use is really really good! Topped it off with their hot salsa! Gave it a great kick. I would recommend this place and I will be coming back again!

    Hand's down the BEST Mexican Chicken soup in San Diego! It NEVER disappoints and always satisfies. I heard their other dishes are great too but they are famous for their Mexican soup! BONUS - If you are coming down with a cold, flu, etc. - run, don't walk, and buy some of their soup for miracle healing! It is amazing!

    Jorge's is like the little Engine that could. It exemplifies the true meaning of a hidden gem. Tucked in deep in a shopping a center that if you don't carefully look, you'll miss it. Here's my suggestion, carefully look and double look, or simply stop and ask because if you miss it, then you've missed out on THE BEST SOUP in all of San Diego County, heck even Southern California for that matter. Food is amazing, I found this place in 2005, been coming here since. I live deep inland, 24 miles away and still visit once a week, yea it's that good. Don't believe me, try it for yourself. Try the soup. You'll thank me and especially Jorge's later.

    Normally I have great experiences with this place, but the last time I went in there it was just awful. I had a 45 min lunch break and they left the phone off the hook so I was unable call in my order. I show up and order a burrito which takes nearly 30min to get. When they call it out, it's the wrong burrito. They say I can take the burrito I didn't order, or wait for them to correct the order. I now have 15 minutes to eat my food and return to work and can't wait another 20+ min to get the correct burrito. Offering to give me something I didn't order and calling it a wash is not a reasonable offer. For the next few months I'll be going to El Nopalito.
