Acocotli Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Yucaipa

This review took place within two weeks of the opening, so some details may change over time. The location is not very visible, requiring some searching through the parking lot. Also, the space is not very big, holding about 50 people. The floors, counters, and tables were sparkling clean. Oddly, there is nothing preset on the tables: No salt & pepper, no napkins, no silverware. The wooden chairs are hard and I found them uncomfortable. The wait staff seemed a bit disorganized during my visit but, once responsibility for my table was established, the older female waitress was very attentive. The chips are home made and very good, not greasy. The salsa is tasty and not too spicy. I expressed my disappointment about not finding Chili Colorado on the menu and my waitress stated that other diners had asked for it to be added. She suggested the shredded beef burrito, so I ordered it. I added rice, beans, and red sauce as a package, which I found a little pricey at $4.50 additional. The burrito was ample, well-seasoned, and nice & warm. The beans were a little too runny for my palette. The rice was perfect. Although the beverage station is self-serve, my waitress delivered and refilled my Fanta Orange. Overall, this new (at time of writing) restaurant is a nice addition to the neighborhood. I...

Friend and I went for dinner the Saturday before Memorial Day after hiking up San Gorgonio, and on our way to Indio. We arrived at 6:45pm and it took us a good 20 minutes to order and get seated. The place is very popular and not a lot of tables inside. We each had our own chile relleno and enchilada combo. He also had the fish taco, while I had the veggie quesadillas. I liked the combo, though I was expecting to get the two items separately. The quesadillas made for a good lunch the next day at a hotel with a microwave. We also had horchatas, and the house chips+salsa, which were both delicious. Total including tips and taxes came to around 55-60$, which is pretty cheap considering that we had leftovers for next day's lunch. Staff is friendly, and restroom is clean. Plenty of parking outside, and it's easy to get to, right on...
