We went for restaurant week and had the best lunch during pandemic. We were seated outdoors (our request) and service was amazing. Our waitress was kind and made our lunch a special time for us. Hands down the best carnitas in Old Town! Highly recommend the fresh hand made tortillas.

This is a family favorite it never disappoints. I love sitting right in front of the Nana's making homemade potatoes. This visit didn't disappoint. Food was cooked perfection and tortillas were outstanding. Love homemade flour tortillas. Excellent Service as always

This was a really fun experience! The family enjoyed the food and ambiance. Really fun aspects to each part of the restaurant. I recommend sitting next to the street if the weather is nice. The California surf and turf burrito was incredible! I'd come back just to have that again. Everyone enjoyed their meals and our server was excellent!

for starters, i came here with my lady as soon as she drove in from out of town. the portions are bigger than most mexican restaurants. the food was tasteful and seems like they put real thought into each dish and drink. very well! very very well. ????they even make fresh tortillas from scratch. i appreciate the authentic style and taste. the red salsa that came with the chips is very well on my rolled tacos. the margarita i got gave a good buzz???????? thank you and we will be back.

This is a nice, spacious restaurant. It has free chips and salsa, large fountain drinks, generous portions, and pretty reasonable prices. The actual food taste okay, nothing incredibly impressive but good enough. The service was really good and the food came out really fast.

Amazing atmosphere and good service- food was a bit disappointing. This was the first meal we had when we touched down in San Diego and we were hoping for better tasting Mexican food. It was just average. But a fun place to visit! Old Towne is such a fun area.

Great ambiance but food really lacked flavor. Given the amount of reviews, our expectations were really up there but it just wasn’t the place for us.
It’s huge so we got seated immediately even though from the outside it looked like there would be a long wait
Margarita for two was also okay. I think all the sour mix was sitting at the bottom of the pitcher? Idk, it was odd!

After my favorite Mexican restaurant closed down due to the pandemic, I was left with a huge void of finding another restaurant that was on the same level. Cafe Coyote is on that level. It is so good. The food is very flavorful, the carne asada i had was incredibly tender and their beans are out of this world. Not to mention the great atmosphere and home made tortillas. I have found my new Mexican Restaurant.

Delicious Authentic Mexican food
They can accommodate tons of people, I was told they have 3 kitchens, with 15-20 servers. Fast service, fast food, reasonable prices.
They have two women hand rolling tortillas out front.

Haven’t been to the place in a long time and decided to go today but that was a bad idea. The food looked good but tasted bland. Had to add salt and pepper to my plate for favor. The waitress was rude and made us feel like she didn’t want us there. 100 dollars was our bill for 3 people. 2 adults and 1 child. It will be another long time before I go back.
