WTH? This was the worst "Mexican" meal I've ever had. I'm not even sure if this qualifies as Mexican food. This is based on a Pick Up Order. First, when ordering, I asked for "No Sour Cream due to allergies" and of course my meal had LOTS of cream all over it. So I had to scrape off or eat around the cream. Second, the Guacamole did not even look real, like in the pictures. Third, the ground meat was mostly gristle. The flavor was totally lacking. Every part of the dish seemed like ingredients that were from a can via Sysco Foods and just put together. Fourth, the only way to order a Quesadilla online was under the child's menu. While it was listed in the Child's menu section, the size was something that would have been appropriate for an American Girl Doll. Fifth, when I picked up the order, I was ignored for 5 minutes and I was the only one in there. In hindsight, that was a red flag. While the price was expensive for what it was, I understand that running a restaurant is difficult in this area. But at this point, what I got from this restaurant... I would have preferred Taco Bell, and I haven't been to one in over a decade. I'm not sure how this restaurant has garnered so many good reviews, but it seems most of the patrons of San Carlos downtown restaurants are lacking some authentic taste buds.

Not always attentive to their customers, but once they are, they're pretty good. I like the tacos the best

My husband and I had just finished hiking in the mountains west of Redwood City and were hungry. My husband typically likes really hearty food, so I knew some mexican cooking would really appeal to him. This place has a mom and pop shop sort of vibe. The inside is a little dim, but there is a nice seating area outside on the blocked-off street. It was cold that day but the heat warmers outside did not even need to be turned on, somehow the outdoor seating area seemed to trap heat well. It was also nice having an outdoor seating area because my dad brought his maltippoo along. We ordered some chips and guacamole as an appetizer and it was so delicious ! The guacamole was a good mixture of chunky and smooth, plus the chips were warm and fresh ! I also ordered horchata which is my favorite drink ever and I really loved their version of it, it definitely felt less watered down that some other places that server horchata. My husband ordered a dish with steak (I'm so sory I can't remember the name) while I ordered the a shrimp fajita dish. It was soo tasty ! I feel like it is hard to make shrimp taste good with cheese, and they did an excellent job. I also had never had coconut rice before but I thought it was tasty to go along with the shrimp and fajitas. Service was also very friendly and did not take too long ! We would definitely love to come back here again and would recommend this establishment !

Came here on a Friday night and got seated right away. It's kid friendly and has a kids menu. We got a pitcher of margaritas and shared it among 4 people. Most of the items were authentic Mexicans dishes. I wanted to try something new and got the cochinta pibil which is a pork dish. The meat was tender. They have seatings both inside and outside.

I didn't take photos. Let me describe instead. I love a good Cochinita Pibil. We were a group of 6 and no one really wanted to share with me, so they ordered other things (pollo con mole, flautas, suizas de maricos...) None had heard of Cochinta Pibil before.My dish came, a beautiful generous serving of succulent slow roasted pork in savory sauce, fresh sectioned oranges on top, coconut rice on one side, mango salad on the other. Other dishes looked good too, the mole is red, different (fresher tasting) from the dark brown one normally finds. The suizas with the green sauce looked good too, but everyone (except the pescatarian) agreed that mine was the best.I will be going back just to share this dish with my husband. I love to cook, but don't think I could make this better at home, I will also get that jalapeño Margarita again. Not too spicy, just enough. Well done Mama Coco, you have a new fan for high end Mexican food...especially the pork.

Decent Mexican spot in downtown San Carlos. Ordered the flautas with beef and they were surprisingly good. Margaritas were good also. Service is on the slower side.

Cute place. Nice outdoor seating. Good food but probably wouldn't go back. We ordered empanadas which were really good with the sauce. They were kind of soggy and not crispy like most. But i really liked the thick taste of the empanada bready part. I ordered the fish tacos which were pretty good. Felt healthy and fresh. The burrito was also pretty good. Again, good food but nothing id crave to come back. Except maybe the sauce. Service was great!

Decided to check this place out last minute since my friend and I were in need of some food before we shopped. So glad we stopped by here as their fish tacos really hit the spot. Must try their tamarind Margarita, it was pleasantly easy to drink and got tipsy off one. Sangria was pretty good too.The staff were very friendly and kept checking on us to see if we were enjoying the food.Went there on a Wednesday so not a lot of people. Clean and cute restaurant. The patio had space for little kids to play in so great for families with little ones.

Enchilada was the best!!! I was so hungry for lunch during my break n craving Mexican dish. Wasn't expecting that this place would be so nice. Service was great, food presentation was impressive, and it was delicious. Would definitely come back and also recommend this place. I should've taken pic of the food but couldn't wait to eat. lol

I will never return to this retaurant. It is my first time ordering here. We have many good Mexican restaurants in San Carlos. This is not one of them. I ordred take out. My fish taco was soo bad. The fish had gone bad. I could not eat it. I also ordered Nachos. Twice while ordering the nachos I asked for extra guacamole. I did not receive extra guacomole. The Nahos had some weird tangy sauce tht I have never tasted in any other mexican dish. I order Mexican very often.I literally threw out my entire dinner. I don't know how anyone could go to this rstauant twice.
