Mexican Food in La Jolla — Now Open

El Pueblo's fifth location is open at 564 Pearl Street in La Jolla Village. We took over the former Jack in the Box site and brought the full El Pueblo menu — the $1.39 fish taco, breakfast burritos, carne asada, enchiladas, tortas, bowls. Six in the morning until midnight, seven days a week. Beer and wine coming soon.

We're a short walk from La Jolla Cove, Scripps Park, and the shops along Prospect and Pearl. The southernmost El Pueblo, joining Del Mar (4.5 miles north), Carmel Valley (10 miles northeast), and the original Cardiff and Carlsbad kitchens up the coast.

The full El Pueblo menu — fish tacos, breakfast burritos, carne asada plates, enchiladas, quesadillas, chile rellenos, tortas, bowls, and kids options — all made fresh every day. Order at the counter, eat in or take out. Six in the morning to midnight, every day of the week. Beer and wine coming soon.
