“ Small walk up taco shop that has a super nice crew working there We ordered the famous soup that they have there. It was absolutely delicious and so filling that we had to take it for leftovers. Seems to be a popular place in the area, plenty of parking ”
“ When you walk in, you meet Angel and he is one great server. Nice open decor with a big great menu. My wife finally found her chicken enchiladas with Verde sauce and they were great. My Carnitas tacos were crunchy huge and delicious. And then Angel comes over and said can I give you a special little treat? He brings over 2 cups of their famous Mexican chicken noodle soup. We brought it home and can't wait to try it and then it dawned on me that of course they have great soup because it's a Mexican delicatessen. Genius will be back. ”
“ Always swing by Jorge's to pick up a delicious chile relleno burrito when in town. ¡Bueno! ”
“ This newest Jorge's took over the spot where our beloved Karina's had been for decades. While we were sad to see Karina's go, we sure are happy that we now have a Jorge's in Leucadia!! My husband, and I love their food, and now it's so convenient to get an order to go. I am also a Chicken Tortilla Soup fanatic, and they do a great job! ”
“ Jorge is always amazing. Been coming here for years. Love the spicy chicken soup, especially when someone in the family is under the weather. Everyone is always friendly. ”
“ I have a new favorite place to grab a quick, tasty and flavorful breakfast burrito! It's easy to find, as it is in the Vons strip center on the West side easy access off I5 next to Domino's and Subway. The regular breakfast burrito with avocado slices and hot salsa inside is . Service is quick, friendly and the restroom is clean! There are plenty of tables and a big tv on the wall so if you choose to dine in you can also catch a game or something. As a guy looking for great breakfast burritos I found one - it it were only closer to where I call home . Just try it and enjoy! ”
