Sawaya Brothers is known for having the best and freshly made corn tortillas in San Diego. Their fresh masa for tamales and hominy for pozole are also recommended. However, the market is considered very expensive, with customers noting they spend a lot for few items. The line is often described as ridiculously slow, requiring a long wait to be served due to its popularity. While some customer service is noted as attentive, the parking is criticized and the cashiers can hold up the line. Some recommend going to other stores instead.
The home made food is very good!! Don't forget the tortillas probably the vest ones in san diego!!!

This afternoon I stopped by for food prepared in the kitchen and the young man named Omar was very attentive and served everyone with the best disposition despite the fact that he did everything by himself. Good customer service, wearing his face mask and attentive.
