“ Ok my friends and you know who you are !! I don't just write stuff to write it ?? I try places out first to see if the food is legit !! Well this small place is the real deal. The wife and I have had the tortas and the natural juices here and they are superb! Ok today I ordered a lox and bagel that was so fresh and tasty I just had to post it . On the menu it just calls it a salmon torta ohhh no my friends this is much more . The quality of the lox was very fresh .I've had many lox an bagels but never with lime for squeezing. So great ! The counter person was very nice !! I've paid as much as $20 bucks plus !! This was at a price point of $11 wow !! If you like lox as much as I do try this place !! You won't be sorry!! ”
“ We enjoy their torta de milanesa which is huge! I usually share it with my husband and buy one of their very generously served fruit salads! This place gets 4 stars for service because sometimes the food is ready promptly and other times the wait for it is longer. The ambiance is casual and clean. Comfortable enough to sit and eat there although most of the time I take my order to go! Must try their torta de milanesa and fruit salads there! ”
“ My favorite Fruiteria Cafe in San Diego. Frutas has been around for years especially in the South Bay & they have grown to a few shops now. Known for their fresh fruit, juices, smoothies but they also have good fresh sandwiches & tortas. The customer service here is very good, always nice & helpful & it's always very clean in here, you can smell the Lavender Fabulouso as you walk in like at your Tia Guadalupe's house. Sometimes there can be a little wait but remember it's all fresh :) My favorite item here is the Torta De Lomo, the best Lomo Torta in all SD, ask for extra sauce. The Torta De Milanesa is also one of the best you'll find in SD, my kids & wife's favorite. They also have a very good Tuna sandwich here cold or hot, get an Agua with your meal their good. I'm not much of a Bagel or breakfast guy BUT they got an amazing Breakfast Bagel that I look forward too the times I come in the morning. Over all a very good Fruta shop that I will continue to be a loyal customer of & visit. Keep up the good job Frutas & see you sooner than later :) ”
