Experience Del Mar's Mexican food at these fantastic spots.
“Nice casual place. Order at the front and they bring your food on your table. I had their carnitas with meal. Delicious. Very busy during weekends. Lots of takeout waiting. Take advantage of their daily happy hour. Great staff. Super friendly. Good selections of desserts.Cheers“
“Omg found this place on IG and I can not lie the food was amazing. So far I've had the prime rib and mocajete amazing. SERVICE IS BEYOND AND ABOVE. I've been here so many times servers know me well. There service is always appreciated, I hardly eat all my food when I go out to eat and I never have a problem finishing my food here. Nice view inside and out. Huge shout out to the servers I've had sadly can't remember there names but I will definitely get there names next time I go.“
“Lived in Del Mar for 14 years now and I have to say that without fail Kotija Jr. Delivers great Mexican food each time I go there. The guys working there are super chill and laid back which is rad. The portions are big and you get a lot for your money. The fish tacos, Al Pastor and tried and true California burrito are fantastic. The food is done pretty quick and comes out hot and fresh. If you're big into Mexican food and wanna have a chill Denali definitely go here.“
“This is such a cool place and offers a very authentic feel. The seating downstairs is so cool and pet friendly. There are plants everywhere and they have heaters for colder days. It’s mostly covered so you are safe in the rain. The food was delicious and the happy hour made everything even more affordable. We got nachos and tacos and it was all perfect. We will for sure be going back the next time we are in Del Mar.Vegetarian options: The wonderful thing about Mexican food is that it’s very easy to turn into vegetarian or vegan.Parking: It was a little busy so we had to drive around a little to find parking. I imagine during busy season it’s very difficult to find parking but it’s very walkable.“
“We love Del Mar and this is our go to restaurant. You don't need reservations and they have a nice outdoor atmosphere. The service is very friendly. The food is good and well priced. I consider this restaurant a great alternative to the expensive Californian restaurants as well as the less expensive pizza and Mexican places in town. I also have taken business lunch meetings here as the lunch menu is very reasonable. Lots of parking around if you head down 11 or 12 Ave toward the water.“
“Had a late night bite to eat. The staff was extremely friendly and polite, even though we were so close to closing time. The tacos were amazing. I wish we could've tried them all. The guacamole salt and lime was hands down the best guac ever. The homemade tortilla chips were top-notch. Kuty's churros are heavenly and highly recommended.“
