Kotija Jr Taco Shop Carlsbad

Amazing food, great portions, fantastic breakfast burros and the best tortillas and salsa. Great place to eat especially if in the area for Legoland or golf!

Had chicken salad. Lots of lettuce and very dry, tiny pieces of dried up flavorless chicken.
The salad dressing was barely drizzled over the huge pile of lettuce and dried chicken pieces.
The guy at counter first asked “How can I help you?” With his back to me. He asked a second time WITH HIS BACK TO ME.
When he turned around and acknowledged me, I asked if they had salad because it’s hidden on the menu and I wasn’t about to read the menu verbatim to find it so he pointed it out like I’m a dumb a-word.
He at least asked if I wanted salsa so I asked which is mild, red or green? (I’m a white girl that Loves mild, tasty salsa and lots of it)
He said the green is mild but as you can see in the photo, it even LOOKS HOT and it IS.
This is the second time I’ve been here. Last time was about a year ago and a female treated me with the exact same disrespect. Same ridiculous hot AF salsa so they apparently do Not carry mild salsa here. If you like mild salsa then you’ll have to try and enjoy all items Dry.
No surprise there was no one in line both times.
Don’t waste your time or money coming to this location. Much nicer crew in Leucadia.

Very meh food for decent prices. Service was quite nice idk what reviews are talking about. Definitely nothing to praise, but if you’re already there and want Mexican food it’s not horrible.

I absolutely love trying new places to eat! The cashier was super friendly. The atmosphere is nice a brightly let. Prices are great for the food portion you get and what makes this place welcoming is the people who work here. The California burrito was tasty! Thank you to the Kotija Jr Team! Great staff and great food! A must try place! Thanks Kotija!

Recommended dishes: Carne Asada Burrito

Food isn't bad, but there also isn't anything special about it. Just kind of mediocre. Not tasty enough for the price. Won't return.

Disappointing Carne Asada Burrito
This has to be one of the worst carne asada burritos I’ve ever had. The meat was dry, lacked any flavor, and tasted like it had been reheated from the day before. It was a complete letdown. If this is the standard they’re serving, I won’t be coming back.
F- rating

I personally didn’t like their food. Nasty sauce on the enchilada, ruined the whole thing.

Their food was good, but their service was horrible. I asked about my online order and I got attitude back from the lady who looked up my order saying it’s not ready since the pick up time was in 20 more minutes. I waited for my food and once it was ready, the lady gave me my food and just walked away. I wanted more salsa, so I had to stand there for 5 more minutes for the lady to go back to the front counter. I asked for two more salsas, she said nothing, grabbed the salsas and tossed them into my bag. This is probably the last time I get food here.
