" I've been eating Diego's food since I was a kid! It's a cherished place for authentic flavors. Their tacos al pastor are really well-made and packed with flavor. Occasionally the service can lag, but it's always worth the wait for such tasty food! Nice casual atmosphere, definitely a local favorite. " (*Curated Review*)

" Diego's Mexican Food claims to serve authentic cuisine, but my experience was lacking. The burrito I ordered was insipid and lacked spice. The service was quick, but almost too rushed, leaving no time to enjoy the meal. Additionally, the sitting area could use some cleaning. Not sure I'd return unless I hear they step up their game. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely one of the best spots I've found for authentic Mexican food! Their carne asada is cooked to perfection and the portions are generous. The vibe is relaxed, perfect for hanging out with friends after a long day. The staff is friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home. I highly recommend the carne asada fries – a must-try! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for authentic Mexican cuisine, Diego's is the place to be! The flavors transport you right back to Mexico. The flautas were crisp and delicious, and the portions are huge. I was so full after just one. The queues can be long during lunch, but trust me, it’s totally worth the wait. I will definitely be coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Incredible food! I enjoyed every bite of my beef burrito which was flavorful and authentic. The salsa had that nice kick which paired perfectly. My only complaint was the lack of seating space, as it often feels cramped, especially during peak hours. Overall, if you're seeking great flavors, Diego's won't disappoint! " (*Curated Review*)

" Diego's has been my favorite Mexican place since I moved to Oceanside. Their authenticity in flavor is unmatched, always reminding me of my roots back in Mexico. The service tends to vary, but the food is consistently great regardless. If you want a true taste of Mexico, definitely consider stopping by! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wanted to love this place, but it just didn’t hit the mark. The burrito was on the bland side – it really needs more seasoning. On the other hand, the customer service was quick and friendly. The restaurant had a good atmosphere, but the food could use some major improvement. Unfortunately, I won’t be returning any time soon. " (*Curated Review*)
