Tried this place out since i get nails done next door. I like that you can get your burrito made into a wet burrito. I get pollo asado burrito with mole sauce and is sooooo yummy.

Quaint little restaurant on the corner of Broadway and E Street in Chula Vista. They have a covered patio seating area also if you feel like sitting outside. I went there for breakfast I ordered three eggs scrambled with beans and rice. The beans were excellent creamy but not watery, the rice was flavorful I really enjoyed the meal in fact I left the plate clean. I will be going back to try some of their lunch and dinner plates.

First time visiting this restaurant. The decor inside is Spartan, but that's OK. The seating is also minimal, and those hard chairs makes themselves known before long. I was seated very quickly, to be expected, given there was only one other diner in the restaurant at 11:45 AM. There seemed to be a brisk To-Go order business, just very few diners. A small portion of tortilla chips and salsa were served right away. The salsa was a bit watery, but had some bite to it. The chips were cold, but fresh. I ordered the Carnitas Burrito ($11.25). It was not as large as many other Mexican restaurants serve, but it was plenty enough for lunch. It was presented very nicely on a square white plate with a garnish of cilantro, carrot and lettuce. It was tasty, but I bet in a blind taste test, it may not be recognized as Mexican food. The meat was delicious, but there was virtually no spiciness to it. Plus all the guacamole was in one end. The service was fine, but the server was not exactly overworked. I'd like to come back to try a combo meal, and get a better perspective of the offerings here. Or maybe a breakfast burrito. The restaurant is located in a strip center fronting Broadway, just south of E Street, and has ample parking. About half of the available seating is under a cover outdoors.

Hubby picked up breakfast to-go. He ordered a chorizo burrito came with potatoes and he also ordered a ham and cheese sandwich with a side of fries. Everything was very good and so filling. I would definitely order breakfast from them again.

Everything about this place is excellent!!! It's a shame I've passed by this place so many times & hadn't tried it yet. Honestly from the outside it doesn't look like much. But this hole in the wall is exactly what I've been looking for. The service is so wonderful. They go above & beyond. Fast & friendly. It's what most places lack these days. This type of service. The food was absolutely delicious! My kids loved their Chilaquiles Verdes. They ate their whole late. I ordered the breakfast burrito and it was one of the best breakfast burritos I've had in a while. The inside is cute and simple. It may not look like much but everything else is so impressive that the aesthetics just go with a homey feel. My family & I loved it! We will be back. Highly recommend!!

My husband and I came down to Chula Vista for the weekend and made a stop for dinner here at El Huevo Estrellado as it was walking distance from where we were staying. My husband was craving some asada fries, they were on the menu, and so we took the walk. Maybe it was just the time of day, but they were way quieter than anticipated; for most of our meal, my husband and I were the only people in the restaurant besides the manager who was also our server, and one other employee. The restaurant was slightly dim, there was music, everything had a really low-key vibe. That being said, the service was unmatched (undivided attention for the win) but the food was even better. We ordered the chicken flautas and an order of carne asada fries. Everything was super fresh; the flautas were hot and crispy, with well seasoned and tender chicken inside. The carne asada fries were some of the best we have ever had (and we have had many carne asada fries), with a super generous amount of melty cheese, meat, sour cream, and guacamole. We doused everything in their house salsa, which was really flavorful with a healthy dose of heat. If we had a fridge in our room, we would have bought some to take with us. The price point was perfect, the food was fantastic, and the service was solid. I very highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for some low-key and authentic Mexican food. We will definitely be back.
