I know there are a lot of little mexican food places here and there across Santee - but most of them you look at and keep on driving by. They are usually those steep roofed, brightly colored, little dumpy places that you wonder how often the mouse traps are emptied and where.
Not Estrada's. I have been going to this place for almost the past 10 years. The food is always great and cheap, and I'm picky about my mexican food - I have tried just about everything on the menu by now, and have found a few favorites. The girl that works behind the counter knows me fairly well, and knows how I like everything made, without question (since I usually forget to order it without bell peppers and such). Its good food, they are quick, and they are inside a building (entirely). All of my friends that I have gone there with, the ones that already had a favorite mexican place in town, made this their new favorite. The beans are real (not dired with too much water added), and the rice is fresh - those are the first two things I notice about mexican food when I am trying something new.
I believe this was the first Estradas, and they were so good, and so successful, that they have been able to expand greatly.
PROS: Fresh, real food. Very clean fast-food restaurant
CONS:

Quiznos is one of my favorite places to get a quick sandwich or soup. The food is always fresh, you watch them make your order right in front of you, and get it just the way you like it. I especially like their chili, really meaty!

I like Samurai Sam's because of the fast service, clean restaurant, and the good food. It basically is stir-fry veggies and meat, and rice or noodles. It is not greasy, or loaded down with sauces like other stir fry places, and the veggies are still crisp, not cooked so long they got mushy. They have good service, too.

If you need any type of footwear, Payless is the place to go. They offer everything from tennis shoes, boots, sandals(including flip-flops), and dress shoes for any shoe size, kids included. I don't know how many pairs of shoes I've gotten there, all great quality. Their sales are pretty good, and the store is kept very clean and organized. I would suggest this place to everyone.

I wouldn't say its World Class but it is excellent food. Fun atmosphere especially if your into sports! Sometimes the football games are on and my husband wont leave the house to go get dinner unless we are headed to Oggis! Tons of plasma TVs all over the walls with all the games on! Lots of fun! Family atmosphere! Oggi sticks are the best with the dipping sauce or not! Have to get them if your going! Take a bunch of people, it will be a blast! Only downer I have found is that the pizza is not as good as I would hope but everything else I have tried is excellent!

This pizza is pretty good tasting and it is huge! They really are giant! One pizza can feed my family of eight! No other pizza can do that. This is also a good place to get pizza for a party. The price is reasonable, too.

My first impression was that it was in a very nice and cozy area. It is quite and serine with several water fountains around the perimeter. The office itself is very inviting with a cool air-conditioned room that will protect you from the outside heat. Jerry is a humble man who loves his work, and has been practicing for 30 years. This business is small but that’s why I like it. There aren’t any huge waiting lines, or traffic jams in and out of the building. It’s very easy to get to, and because of the surroundings, hard to leave.
