El Cotixan Mexican Food — Restaurant in El Cajon

I decided to try this shop again and it has definitely been elevated. I like the signage in the window that they added and I love that they kept the original paintings on the inside. Those have always been a special part to this building no matter the changes. I ordered two breakfast burritos, bacon with beans, one with guac, one with sour cream and two small horchatas. The burritos were $10 and change each and it was about $30 total with tax. The mild green hot sauce is very good. The breakfast burritos were amazing! From the first to last bite. The guacamole was super fresh and had cilantro, no longer bright green like it was 4 years ago. The cook and the register person had great customer service skills. I especially enjoyed listening to the male cook sing while he cooked. I HIGHLY...

Sorry but we received horrible service, & rude workers. Food was either absolutely flavorless & bland or way too salty. Salsa was wayyy too spicy the times I’ve been there. To the point you don’t even taste anything out of the salsa except for the spice. Took forever to make 3 rolled tacos & a burrito & literally saw them as they dumped frozen fries & frozen pre-rolled tacos into the fryer and charged us pretty generously. Should’ve just eaten taquitos at home if I wanted that. I came here because potato rolled tacos are always so good at most places but let me tell you not only were they from a frozen bag, they had NO toppings on it. this place has great reviews I never thought we would have such a awful experience but they really...

I just had to stop by here today (04/08/2021). After getting my tattoo at El Cajon tattoo.close by. I ordered the $10.00 Taco and Enchilada combo meal with my favorite sodie pop Dr. Pepper. Needless to say I was hungry and when I bit into my taco. It was "Hot" and fresh! I had actually forgotten how good fresh hot food really tastes. I really didn't mind paying that much either. It was so worth it!!! Especially knowing I had rice, and their pinto beans. Oh my it's the tastiest meal I've had in a while. They have such great food/cooks here. I try and get here whenever I can. I highly recommend this place! Because when I left I.felt happily stuffed as a Thanksgiving...
