Carne asada fries are a local dish speciality found on the menus of restaurants primarily in the American Southwest,[2] including San Diego,[3][4] where it originated.[5]
Carne Asada Fries are obviously a local favorite — a San Diego area original that is apparently starting to catch on in other parts of the Southwest. This dish is a staple of Mexican fast food joints in the area, but not something you see on the menu of a full-fledged Mexican restaurant.
