El Costeño Mexican Food offers a variety of delicious options that cater to all eaters. The owner, who is incredibly nice, shares that the chorizo breakfast burrito is his grandma's recipe. The burrito is filled with well-seasoned chorizo, onions, and serranos, wrapped in a warm tortilla with melty cheese and velvety beans. The Al pastor taco with pineapple and avocado salsa is fantastic. The service is incredible, and the carne asada fries are a must-try. Recently, customers have praised the helpful staff, especially when it comes to large orders, like the eight burritos for a company meeting that received many compliments. While the atmosphere is not the best due to its location at a gas station and car wash, the seating area is cozy. This hidden gem, run by a small family, offers great food and friendly service. The chilaquiles burrito is a standout, and for those who enjoy spicy seafood, the camarones ala diabla is a must-have. Don't miss out on their refreshing pineapple water. Overall, El Costeño Mexican Food is highly recommended for tasty and affordable Mexican cuisine in a humble and sunny setting.
