Bill of fare

What we cook

Tacos de birria
Beef cooked down slow, crisped on the plancha, with consomé for dipping and onion and cilantro on the side.
Carnitas plate
Pork simmered until it falls apart, then browned, with rice, black beans and tortillas straight off the comal.
Enchiladas de mole
Corn tortillas rolled around chicken under a dark mole, finished with crema and crumbled queso fresco.
Chiles rellenos
Poblanos stuffed with jack cheese, battered light, and set in a tomato broth with rice alongside.
Fish tacos
Grilled or battered, with cabbage, lime crema and a red salsa that has real heat behind it.
Agua fresca del día
Whatever fruit looked right at the market that morning, blended with water and just enough sugar.

Three generations, one comal

Casa Mirasol started as a weekend kitchen for the family and never really stopped being one. Rosa still grinds the masa in the morning and still argues with her brother about how much chile belongs in the mole. The room is loud, the tables are long, and nobody minds if the kids are up and moving between plates. Come with people, order too much, and take the rest home.

Bright dining room with embroidered table runners, marigolds on each table and a striped woven poncho hanging by the window

Made when you order

Plates are cooked to order — the relleno is fried when you ask for it, not before.

The long way, on purpose

Birria and mole take days because that's what they take; nothing here comes from a jar.

A table, not a transaction

You're waited on by people who know the menu because they eat it.

Off Logan, under the bridge

We're a short drive from most of San Diego. Parking, patio and big-table questions are all easier answered on the phone.

Good to know

What should I order the first time?

The birria tacos with consomé — they're the reason people find us. If you don't eat beef, the enchiladas de mole are the kitchen's other long project, and the fish tacos never miss.

Can I take food to go?

Yes — everything on the menu travels except the chile relleno, which is best eaten the moment the batter stops crackling. Call ahead and it's ready when you walk in.

Do you handle groups?

The room seats parties comfortably and the kitchen paces family-style orders so everything lands together. For bigger gatherings, call and talk to us — we'd rather plan it with you than surprise the kitchen.
