People here have great attitude. Cook is cracking jokes as soon as you walk in. Carne asada fries where amazing and the portion was enough to feed one person and then some. Prices are also affordable. 15$ for carne asada fries is reasonable considering my the portion. Way better than Tapatíos who charged me 20$ for the same. Definitely recommend El Cotixan. Green salsa is mild and red is a little spicier. Great experience overall!

I've been eating here since I was a little girl. The food is yummy with a perfect price point!
They have salsa bar and free spicy pickled carrots & jalapeños.
The staff is always friendly. This is a great local family owned restaurant!!
The dining area is small (more of a taco shop vibe). They can only seat 16 and have 4 booths that fit 4 adults. The restaurant is always clean.
We are obsessed with the creamy "American guac" but the traditional guacamole is also great!

Best place since the 90’s. We have moved around states, but everyone we fly in to SD we make the drive with multiple orders to go. We love, love carne asada burritos, California burritos, shredded beef nachos, carne asada fries and asada nachos, taquitos, and our large Jamaicas. Not to mention our favorite salsas. Know the very nice, kind, and funny gentlemen that work their. Since we were young, they don’t know us personally, but we like family when there have conversations. Come check them out!

Marco & Paco are awesome and super fast. Best steak breakfast burrito and they use natural lard in their fryer which is way healthier and tastes better than cheaper canola and palm oils like some other
