Meh $12 hash brown breakfast burrito was okay. Hardly any hash browns, and the burrito was pretty small for that price.

Cotijas is my go-to for killer food and exceptional service. Not just because they're close because there's another good Mexican food place closer. The surf and turf and rolled fish tacos are to die for and they have a great salsa bar to choose from.

My man and I come here A LOT. We love this place and it’s usually pretty good, but don’t go when it’s busy. I ordered a grande burrito (double wrapped ham egg cheese burrito and potatoes) well it’s tasted like just tortilla and soggy fry. The fries had the constancy off microwaved soggy fry and there wasn’t really much egg. It might be me, but when I read potatoes I don’t think French fries and I don’t expect them in my breakfast.

I only go through the drive thru, but i love how its designed. I always get consistently perfect carne asada fries, Cali burritos, pollo asada fries, or rolled tacos. I really like the price, quality, and quantity of their sides of beans, rice, hot carrots, etc.the food is a little expensive if youre low income, but the large portions and quality of the food is very difficult to beat.

Home of the shrimp burrito! Killer food here that I've sworn by for 20+ years, and my folks counted on for 20 years before that. Can't go wrong with rolled tacos & seafood, and the salsa bar carrots are always perfect. Great folks here in the kitchen and at the counter. Don't miss out on a local gem.

They need to get their ingredients list correct.Food tastes good, but they cant get their orders correct these last couple of months.Exmaple 1: We asked for a Surfing California; they said they dont have it --okay, fine. We asked if the Surf & Turf burrito came with fries, and they said no. That's also fine. We ordered two. One came with fries and the other didnt,, but the fry one came with rice. Fine, we like rice. We Ordered it several times after that and they all came with a small amount of fries, and some rice. Great!Example 2: Ordered the same burrito a month later and it came with an overload of fries, but NO rice. I called to say there was a mistake, but they were NOT amicable about it. I was told they all come with fries/potatoes, but DONT come with rice. Which is interesting because the last month they all came with both. They remade it for me bit required me to bring back the other burrito which they unhappily threw away. They even read off the ingredients list which DID NOT include rice.Interesting, considering someone told me it did, TONIGHT, less than 2 weeks after someone read me a RICE-less surf & turf burrito list. (Example 3!)Example 4: Come to tonight -- Ordered a burrito with no salsa & no fries, and they left out the salsa Fresca.Example 5: Another issue recently -- We asked for real guacamole (not the watered down sour cream mixture) and still got the sour cream mixture, aka "American Guac". Disappointing.Guess I'll just go to Bad Hombres where they can agree on the ingredients in their burritos.
