El Zarape Mexican Restaurant   

University Heights is known for its quaint cafes and restaurants, each with its own unique flair. El Zarape fits right in. After you pass through the thick antique pine door, you'll notice the care taken in making the interior feel warm and cozy. The low prices belie the wonderful quality of the food and its preparation. In keeping with the tastes of the locals, vegetarian dishes are offered, including a burrito full of steamed veggies. San Diego has gotten used to fish tacos establishments, so the kitchen has become famous for their scallop or salmon burritos. They also feature mole sauce on the house burrito, a Mexican favorite seldom found in little shops.
