Read MoreAnytime I travel and return to Southern California I'm seized by the desire to go to every random taco shop I can find, convinced that greatness and a lunch under 20 dollars can be found literally anywhere in socal. This week I found myself driving to the Otay Mesa Detention facility to visit clients and checked Google maps for a Chula Vista taco shops, and picked Hermano's bc it had a 4.5, which, in my mind is the cut off for any well reviewed (100 plus) casual restaurant. 4.2, 4.3 is the average score, 4.4 is close, and it is rare to see anyplace with over 100 reviews clock a 4.6 or above. I think that's because for many people on Google Maps, four stars is their normal rating, the default.
This was a Tijuana style burrito i.e. the filling you get in a tj style taco (meat plus a guadamole/salsa Fresca mixture), placed into a burrito. That means no beans, certainly no rice. Here, the meat was outstanding, Carne asada and you could tell bc the asada burrito cost four dollars more than pork or chicken. The guac/Fresca mix was the normal stuff you get all over San Diego, but there was lots of it. Needless to say, I scarfed it down. Pretty rare that I'm the mood for a mid day Carne asada burrito, but Hermano's hit that spot.
