    Steak Super Nachos with Guacamole
    Gene D.

    This is a local fixture/institution located near the entrance to the Morongo Sovereign Nation. Friendly staff, fast service, more than fair pricing, good portions, and good tasting food. The Carne Asada Super Nachos can be a messy affair. Thank goodness for the spoon they gave me. Do note that "mild" for their salsa is relative. I was sweating while eating 3/4 of my order!

    Food was delicious!! Seasoned perfectly and everything was so tasty and fresh! Service was quick. Definitely give it a try!

    Super friendly and fast service. Never knew this place existed until I visited the Malki museum. Might have to make this a regular stop on my way out to Palm Desert. Fabulous steak taco, homemade tortilla, spicy salsa. So yum!

    Crazy Coyote Tacos - 4 Stars Stopped here on Memorial Day morning on our way home from Indio. Traffic was heavy, and we were looking for a quick bite when we saw the reviews for Crazy Coyote Tacos. It's conveniently located right off the freeway exit, which made it an easy stop. We ordered the nachos, carne asada fries, and the green chile verde burrito (which kept popping up in the reviews). Our total was $26 for all three items -- not bad for the portion sizes. The food was decent. It's not exactly authentic Mexican food, but it still hit the spot. The flavors were good, and everything was freshly made. We'd definitely stop by again if we're passing through the area. We also noticed that the couple ahead of us in line were on their way to the nearby outlets, so it seems like a popular pit stop for travelers. Bonus: there's a soft-serve ice cream stand in the same parking lot if you're craving something sweet after your meal.

    My friends have been going here after every Black Friday shopping trip at the outlets nearby. It's a small taco stand with some outdoor seating on the side of the road, very easy to miss, but a MUST if you're in this area. We dropped by before they were officially opened and made small talk with the gentleman who I believe is one of the owners and he was super friendly, funny, and cordial. The ladies who helped prepare our food and worked the cashiers were also very efficient and friendly too. Great welcoming, family feeling. We got the: 1) Giant Taco: -This comes with your choice of grilled steak or chicken breast (we chose grilled steak), guacamole, cheese, cilantro, onions, and salsa. -Delicious! The cheese is melted onto the tortilla and they do NOT skimp out on any of the ingredients. -I got this with the hot salsa and it has a pretty decent initial heat and slow burn throughout. Meat was nicely seasoned and tender and everything came together in a beautiful symphony of taste and texture in my mouth. -You know food is good when you don't need to add salsa but adding it definitely gave a good burning kick (especially the ghost salsa) which was great in the cold windy desert weather. 2) Burrito: -You also get the choice of grilled steak or chicken breast (we got grilled steak), rice, salsa, and cheese all in a flour tortilla. -Absolutely massive and STUFFED to the brim with ingredients. This will fill you up for the rest of the day most likely and if you're not a big eater you can definitely save the other half for later. -Great distribution of insides without it being too horizontal or lateral (meaning each bite will get you a little bit of everything instead of one mouthful of rice or something). 3) Chips and Salsa (with a side of guacamole): -They're the standard corn chips, shaped in coin rounds but it went great with the extra side of guacamole that I purchased. -They fluff their's out with sour cream and was absolutely delicious. -I'll get a bigger side of guac next time I'm there for sure. 4) Ghost Pepper Salsa: -A MUST if you love spicy salsas. -I had to get some to go and I got the huge 16 oz of container. -The burn comes in strong, kicks really hard, and is drawn out as well. -Their food is already good without the salsa but this just brings it up another notch! I actually had some bland leftovers a bit later on and this made everything super good after. -Just make sure you eat this quick or store it in a jar since it's something that they make themselves it will go bad if left out for too long. I don't mind making this a yearly tradition to visit as well seeing as this was some of the best Mexican food and salsa that I've ever had. One of my favorite new businesses I've found this year!

    Went here recently and would not come back again. Horrible customer service, rude rude rude. It's okay to not enjoy your work, but don't need to take it out on the customers. No wonder there was no one there when we went. Overpriced food and they nickel and dime you for every little thing. Save your time and money, try another place.

    Steak burrito.

    This place is amazing. The menu is small, but this allows them to perfect what they do serve. The tacos are addicting. The corn tortillas have to be homemade. They are very thick and large for corn tortillas, and they are stuffed with lots of marinated steak, onions, and cilantro. Really delicious. Must try. Also, had a burrito yesterday afternoon (before somebody crashed into it and died!). It is huge and so very tasty. And a bonus, there's a great little ice cream stand in the parking lot. I had a big ice cream sundae. Very good! I hope the accident doesn't close them down for a while. The building looks to be intact still, so hope all is OK! RIP to the person that passed. :(

    Crazy Coyote Tacos is located at the west end of the frontage road in front of the outlet center, immediately before the highway onramp. This is super convenient. They are locally, family owned and operated. There is limited outdoor seating (see store front pic). I saw several apparent regulars take their orders away with them. All the orders we saw were filled extremely quickly. You can see from the pics that the tacos are soft shell. The shells were a thicker tortilla. The ingredients were a bit on the hotter side; even the mild had some heat. The flavor for both was okay. The Nachos had ample cheese sauce (see pic), this also had a bit of spice in the flavoring. The salsa for the chips was the green version. We also had the grilled beef burrito. There was ample beef in the burrito. The onions were a bit mild but added a nice bit of crunch. The flavor was okay.

    Why aren't the hours updated? They close on Wednesdays.

    Who can really tell why people do or don't do things. Maybe it's best to call and ask directly? I did notice that their actual website has the correct hours listed. :)

    Is there any way to avoid the craving, other than to drive 100 miles?

    Nope, sorry buddy. I too drive far for some tacos.

Leslie ordered the two fish tacos combo plate, and those tacos were fresh, crispy, and perfectly seasoned. The sides were generous and tasty, rounding out a satisfying meal.

When we arrived, the place felt small and intimate, which gave it a cozy vibe. I ordered the chile verde burrito, and my partner had a torta. The burrito, in my opinion, needed a bit more salt it came across a little bland. The torta was okay as well, but nothing really stood out. Overall, the food was decent, just not particularly memorable, especially considering it was slightly pricier than expected. What really stood out, though, was the service. Our server was incredibly kind and friendly. She even offered to bring our food to the table, which didn't seem to be their usual process. It appeared that guests typically order at the counter and pick up their food themselves, but she went out of her way to take our order tableside and deliver it to us. That level of attentiveness was definitely appreciated. Parking is pretty limited since the location sits on the corner of a main street, so you're probably better off finding street parking nearby.

It's not bad, it just lost some of what made it stand out. The food is still really solid though, which is why I keep coming back. The aguachile is one of the best things on the menu, super fresh with a good kick, and the tacos are consistently done right. Simple, clean, and you know what you're getting every time. It's a nice sit-down restaurant if you want to actually relax and eat instead of rushing through a meal. Service is usually solid even when it's busy.

The bill came out to $33 and some change, which just didn't feel worth it for the quality. I really wish it lived up to the Tacos & Beer I remember.
