My burrito was fat! They added the guacamole and sour cream to it, just the way I love it! The salsa was super flavorful, and the rolled tacos are one of my favorite dishes here. This place would have gotten 5 stars if I didn't see the floors and tables. It wasn't clean, and little bar Nats were attacking me..

Do not come here unless you want cold, partly microwaved food!!! If I could give it half a star I would. I ordered combo #2 (chile relleno + enchilada) on the phone at 12:05 pm and they gave a 10 minute estimate for pick up. I arrived at 12:15 pm and my food was already ready, which was surprising. Two minutes later I sit down to eat my food and it wasn't hot at all! The chile relleno was lukewarm at best, and the enchilada was cold. You can see in the photo that they stuck a couple pieces of Kraft cheese on there that never got warm enough to even partially melt. The cheese inside was lukewarm but no where close to start melting, and the batter it had been cooked in was also room temp, which tastes worse that it sounds. It was if someone had put it in the microwave for 30 seconds instead

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Jarom Olson · Jul 2022

Good service, bad food. Chile relleno comes with fake cheddar cheese on top that's not even fully melted. Also same cheese inside. Not authentic, not good. Carne asada was okay, rice has carrots and peas in it

Have you ever been to a taco shop? In my opinion they all share a lot of common ground, which shouldn't really surprise anybody. What set this one apart, and the reason I will return when in the area, is the lady who worked the front counter/ relayed what we wanted to eat/ cashier. She's probably been doing her job for a long time. I wish I could remember her name. Very nice, very friendly, very competent, very professional. I feel compelled now to go there and get her name and then complete this review lol. The food was good. I got two burritos and it felt like the bag weighed ten pounds!! The guy ahead of me got a couple of tacos that were about as good looking tacos I've seen (outside of Old Town). I highly recommend Kotija Taco Shop. And don't forget to check back for Part 2 of my r
