Nice experience overall. Service a bit slow. Seemed to be short staffed. Most of us liked what we ordered, such as tamales and enchiladas. But one person in our group who ordered the ahi tacos didn't like his meal at all.

We have been enjoying Miguel's for years while attending conferences at the Del. They are a quick walk in a secluded spot. A hidden gem. The food is excellent and much more reasonable than on resort. They have gluten free and vegan options galore and the drinks are wonderful.

Good food. White queso and salsa are best of any restaurant.

Food was delicious. Service was slightly slow as the restaurant was very busy, but our waitress did a good job keeping up. Lovely courtyard setting.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Miguel's Cocina in Coronado is a Mexican food paradise! Vibrant patio, killer tacos, and that addictive jalapeño white sauce. Jorge, our server, was a superstar—warm, funny, and spot-on with recs. Food’s fresh, prices fair (~$15-25/entree). A must-visit gem!

Spent almost a week in San Diego and Miguel‘s had the best Mexican food we had, by far. Tried this location along with the one in the Marina. Both locations get high marks all around (the taquitos, 3 taco sampler and the enchiladas rocked). Margaritas are a must-have. Will certainly come back next time we’re in San Diego.

One of my favorite restaurants on Coronado Island. The atmosphere is festive the service is good and the staff is very kind with always having smiles on their face when they greet you. It’s a definite visit every time I am on the island. Margarita and a taco salad my favorite

Got the enchiladas suizas, not the original recipe, though. They're basically just enchiladas verdes. Still good anyway. But that cheese on the chips? Insanely good.

Such amazing food! Every dish I’ve tried here is packed with flavor, and the portion sizes are always generous, making it a great value. The ingredients feel fresh, and the recipes strike the perfect balance of traditional and bold flavors. What really sets this place apart, though, are the margaritas—the mango margarita in particular is one of the best I’ve ever had from any Mexican restaurant. It’s perfectly balanced, refreshing, and just the right level of sweetness and tang. Between the incredible food, hearty portions, and outstanding drinks, this has easily become my favorite Mexican restaurant. I always leave satisfied and already looking forward to my next visit!

Wildly fast and polite service. Delicious food. And the chips and salsa… they give you queso too!! We aren’t local but visit a few times a year. Our first time eating here and we will make it our regular spot every trip now!

Visited Miguel’s Cocina on Coronado Island — beautiful ambiance and great location! We had the vegetarian enchiladas and sopes; both were tasty and nicely presented. Service was friendly and attentive, though the food was about average overall. The atmosphere really makes the experience worth it, especially if you’re sitting outdoors.
