I came with a group one day for lunch. We were able to park in front on the curb a few feet from…read morethe door. Upon entering, we enter a cantina-style interior with shallow lighting which seems to mimic sun light coming down. There are several ceiling fans and TV sets; one was showing Mexican rodeo, which some may not like to see, so I recommend some discretion. Music was calm, romantic and easy-listening and the chairs were comfortable. Good ambiance The restaurant is a combination of ordering at the counter but served at the table by the kitchen workers; friendly service overall . Prices are high but worthy especially of you are ordering for yourself. I ordered crunchy tacos with carnitas which were not on the menu and is an offer mentioned by the crew. They were crunchy and had a flavorful yet mild taste of the shredded pork. The toppings by default come on top of the tacos, rather than inside. The tacos lettuce and queso fresco which I have no problem with, and the toppings are optional. One person in my group had the Breakfast Burrito with Chorizo and Egg and said the burrito was really good with tender chorizo that had a mild kick and the burrito was a well-wrapped meal and also split in two. Another person in the group had Quesabirrias and told me to say that they were DELICIOSO. Crunchy shell with, juicy tender meat. Bathrooms are clean a d easily accessible for handicapped people and all is good. I recommend locals to come to Carnitas del Bajío here in Los Banos, and anyone driving through or visiting for the day , I say drop on by.

This is my go-to spot when I roadtrip down to SoCal!…read more I didn't realize that I haven't wrote a review for Cotija Taco Shop yet. I've been stopping here every time I go to SoCal these past couple years now. I always stop in Los Baños for Dutch Bros, Cotija, and bathroom break at either Marshall's or Target. Lol This spot has some delicious tacos, nachos, carne asada fries, and more. My most recent visits was with my boyfriend a few weeks ago. We stopped by here on the way to SoCal and back! They do have a few tables outside where you can enjoy your food. There were times when I just took it to my car to eat so I can listen to my podcast. Lol The staff there are friendly, and they have a couple of parking spots too. I've also parked on the street as well in other times that I visited. If you're looking for a solid Mexican spot, you must try this place! :)

Let's get to the rest... burrito was good size, good amount of meat and good flavor, good rice, whole beans good...some of the meat had a bit of gristle or hard to chew fat and meat was in bigger chunks than most taquerias and made it a little harder to eat but other than that it was good. Salsa verde was alright. Next time I want to try their red salsa.

She asks the tables around us if they need anything else but skips us. I waved her down to request the check. Instead she goes back to her coworkers gossiping behind the bar. Once I walked up to the bar to request the check it takes a waitress a few seconds to hand it to us. Can't believe such a simple task took them almost 15 minutes to do.

They told us those same items would have been free if we ate the torta inside, which honestly makes no sense.

Al Pastor was good, carnitas (not pictured) was amazing and arracherra wasn't impressive. The meat was not hot enough which leads me to believe that it was probably made earlier that day or the day before and just not heated up well enough. We were hungry and these tacos did the job we also tried a burrito and while it was decent it was definitely not anything to re-order. All in all, the tacos were good.
