People are nice. But the food was not so good this time. Guacamole was old and brownish tomatoes were old overall poor food quality.

INCREDIBLE BAJA STYLE MEXICAN FOOD IN MEMPHIS!! Instantly recognizing the Filiberto's taco logo from my time spent around the Phoenix area, I decided to pop in for lunch on a whim. I didn't really know what to expect or how it would compare to the other **berto's restaurants that dominate the San Diego burrito scene. So what did I think? OMG, this is my new favorite Mexican restaurant in this city--and I've already dropped a couple of 5-star reviews on other places. Filiberto's, however, takes the cake BY FAR!! Let me break it down in layman's terms for the casual eater looking for a great food experience: (1) Absolutely the BEST CARNE ASADA BURRITOS in town! For those that are not familiar with Cali-style burritos, a carne asada burrito has no rice, beans, lettuce, cheese, or sour cream. Rather, it is loaded with about 1 1/2 pounds of marinated steak (diced), pico de gallo, and guacamole...and it is meant to be picked up and eaten with your hands, so there is no sauce on top.

I had a great experience here. I remember Filibertos from my AZ days. They have a great rep there with 24 hour service. Awesome when you go to college and when you get the munchies. Dude. Put one in midtown!

So I've been waiting patiently for this restaurant to open its doors and finally it did. I went they the drive thru and ordered a beef taco & Cali burrito. They were awful. The taco was extreme small and has more lettuce than anything. It may have included 3 maybe 4 strings of cheese. The burrito was absolutely tasteless, soggy, and looked no where near as appetizing as it did on the pic. Next time I will stick with my usual Mexican locations. This visit was highly disappointing. Luckily I only paid 10.00 for a bland tasteless meal that ended up in the trash. I'd give this place a minus 5 stars if I could.
