Cocuyos Restaurant

"My husband and I stopped here for a late lunch after visiting Pinnacles National Park and we cannot wait to come back! I had the fish tacos and my husband had the carne asada and both were to die for. We loved the atmosphere, the service was incredible and the salsa was spicy and delicious!"

"Finally stopped in to see what all the 5 star rating were all about . 4 pm Tuesday place was empty. I was the only customer, so I sat down and was greeted by Alice she said she would be my server and the cook. OK, she did not speak English, and I know a few words in Spanish, no big deal. First chips and salsa tiny bowl average at best cold unsalted chips. 2 tacos arrived carnitas and Carne asada. Homemade tortillas 3.25 reasonable flavor again average nothing special. Shrimp enchiladas main corse again nothing special Shrimp had no seasonings red sauce very spicy and only on the tortillas loaded up with lots of fresh lettuce onions and cheese. It looks impressive but lacking flavor dry and just spicy .I had to ask for guacamole and again tiny bowl and just average. I left full but underwhelmed, I wanted to give 5 stars, but honestly, I couldn't do it. The best thing about this place is the prices are very reasonable however the food did not live up to the hype."

"Great authentic Mexican food! Everything was a very reasonable price, and it all tasted amazing. Each dish was cooked and seasoned well, though the portions were huge though, so we couldn’t finish our food."

"A gem of a place we came across on our way to Santa Cruz. Great service and Ambiance. Delicious food! Everything from the tortillas to pickles are freshly and deliciously made. The price is very reasonable. Glad we were able to eat there. They make their soups fresh order by order so it will take 25 minutes. Too bad we were in a rush to get back on the road. I know it would have been yummy!"

"We have a 2-year-old son and the front desk lady just sent us a small plate of rice and bean to him when we just got our seat! Their food are fresh and tasty, so I hope you can come to have a nice meal here. My husband told me he will always remember this restaurant. What a great Mexican restaurant:)"
