About Picante Taqueria Mexican Grill
Picante Taqueria Mexican Grill is a taqueria, so expect a short, meat-forward menu, corn tortillas, and salsas made in house rather than a broad sit-down Mexican menu. It sits in San Diego (92120), CA, independently run.
There is no star rating on file for Picante Taqueria Mexican Grill yet, so it is ranked here on how taco-focused it is (a taqueria scores above a general restaurant) and how complete its public listing is, not on reviews.
If a trompo is turning, order al pastor. Otherwise asada or carnitas is the safe read. Ask for everything con todo and work the salsa bar.
It is on Mission Gorge Road in San Diego. Use the Directions button for turn-by-turn.
Call ahead or check the map listing before a special trip. Small taquerias change hours often, and our data refreshes on a schedule, not live.
In our San Diego taco guide, Picante Taqueria Mexican Grill is ranked #1 of 292, by taco specialisation and listing completeness. How we rank.
