From the moment we walked in, Nadine was amazing and sold us on the vegan green chile calabactias taco, so good! Micheladas, tacos and the vegan coconut ice cream were amazing! We'll be back!
Lamb barbacoa and al pastor burritos were unique and delicious! The price was too steep for me, but if I were to win the lottery I'd definitely go again!
My first ever elote and nopale experience. Yum does not begin to describe it! Clean and friendly service.Flavor pairings are absolutely off the hook. Young hip demographic.I met friends here for lunch who were visiting from Portland and we all agreed we felt like we were back there.Parking is scarce so plan accordingly. It's well worth it!
If you love tacos, you'll love this place! Everything that I've tried is delicious! Al pastor is my favorite and I get the elote every time. Such a great place to hang out get great food, and chill.
My favorite place to eat in all of New Mexico. This taqueria serves excellent food which is both high quality & has an amazing flavor profile. Something happened though…. They have gotten very stingy with salsa, once upon a time they had an unlimited open salsa bar oasis of flavor & heat. Now you get one tiny ounce of salsa for every 3 tacos you order. Additional salsa costs 70 cents which isn’t much however with the price paid to get 4 or 5 tacos getting one little ounce is a joke. Whatever you think you’re saving in food cost your losing big time in goodwill with customers. Spent over a 100$ with a party of 7 and we were given 4 small cups of salsa. We asked for an additional 2 or 3 more and rather than making this meal for us we were told to go purchase additional salsa. So now our whole experience is tainted. Went back in line to purchase salsa for tacos. Had to wait in line, didn’t get to enjoy the meal or company. My hope is you change it to one salsa for every two tacos. And if we’re all seated and we’re short a salsa just hand out an additional salsa or two. Portion size has also gone down in the course of the last year or so. Please don’t lose what once made el cotorro the absolute best.
Really good drinks and service. We ordered 5 different tacos. The handmade tortillas and flavor was great but the meat was cold and not made fresh to order. Would stick with the chips and salsa.
Amazing tacos of all kinds. All the ingredients are fresh and very well prepared, including the tacos shells themselves. The service is very friendly and very fast.Didn't try the gelato but it is also made in house and looked delicious.
what an amazing taco joint! everything about this place is A plus quality and service! go there and find out for yourself
I absolutely love the chicken tacos, the green salsa and those made to order flour chips! I tried the popcorn gelato… amazing! Staff was so friendly and the cooking people sounded happy and fun. Tasted it in the food? Going back! Yummy!
I would love to leave zero stars for this place.First, each taco is $4.50 - come on! ?♂️Second, what you get for $4,50 is ridiculous - a few pieces of meat (i got carne asada); some tortilla strips (yes, in the taco), and substandard sauce.This is Albuquerque New Mexico; not Montana or some other state that lacks Latino/Hispanic culture and can't make tacos. El Cotorro, with so many other options for phenomenal tacos your restaurant needs to step it up...Especially charging $4.50 for mediocre food called tacos.I would pay $4.50 for great tacos!
