    carne asada fries and a hard shell shredded beef taco

It's always very clean and organized here ! Shoutout the young gentleman making the carne asada bomb every single time ! As well as the younger lady always being very sweet and accommodating

    Ham, Egg & Cheese

    Needed a go to breakfast burrito place and it didn't disappoint! Portion sizes on the burritos are huge, and came out relatively quick. Very hot and obviously made fresh. Tried the bacon, egg and cheese along with the ham, egg and cheese. Good on its own if you prefer plain, but I'm a salsa girl. Red and green salsas weren't too spicy. Best way to do it is to add both salsas to your bite. Could only eat half before we had to call it quits. Jamaica agua fresca was very sweet and tasty. Medium drink is huge and plenty. Tasted even better when I could water it down a little after. I wish this place had played music. Not sure if it was just because it was 9am but it was very quiet in there. Could be more festive with some classic Mexican music we're all always looking for. Service was quick and efficient. FYI maps takes you to the back but it's in the main strip mall with Safeway parking lot.

    Tried the $6 breakfast burrito which only included potatoes, eggs and cheese. It had potential, but unfortunately the cook put too many egg whites and improperly cooked the eggs. I didn't order an egg white burrito. If you picked out the white, there was enough yellow to still make the thing average. Red sauce here very hot.

    Rolled tacos with Guacamole and cheese are very good.

    Generous portion of guacamole and really good flavor; good size taquitos too! This is a nice little place to come and have dinner and just hang out. Small place but really nice.

    Breakfast burrito with bacon!!

    Hey! Shot out to one of THE BEST breakfast burritos in town! Great team of employees and owners and they have gone out of their way to keep prices from going up too much, even as food costs and labor have soared! They are NOT drive through fast, but thats why it tastes so great!!

    Beef enchiladas were really good! Prices are reasonable. If their machaca burrito and tostadas are good, this will be my new mexican spot.

I was happy about the little purse hooks on the table (iykyk). The outside area, not so much. It's on the corner of a strip mall, there was some etched graffiti on the outside windows, which made you aware of the area you were in. (That's the reason for the 1 star deduction.) The place is very small! So yes, you WILL want to make a reservation. We went around 3:30 on a Friday and I would say 3/4 of the tables had reserved signs on them starting at 5pm on up. The receptionist was constantly back and forth looking at them and moving them around to make space for walk-ins. I would skip bringing your kids here. I didn't use the restroom so idk if that was nice or not. The food was fantastic! And the portions were big. The price matched the portions and quality in our opinion. It's hard to find quality food that's worth the cost lately. We enjoyed the chips and salsa. And hubby ordered a Mexican coke, and the server brought him a frosty glass for it. Everyone around us looked like they were enjoying their food. Our server was great. He chatted with us for a while when we told him about seeing the place on IG. He was grateful for the customers. But admitted, it's caused an influx of people and the 'regulars' have become annoyed. Which is understandable. We'd definitely come back if we're in the area but probably not drive that far out of our way again.

There's something so cozy and welcoming about this spot that makes it feel familiar every time we walk through the door. One of my favorite things to order here is the chilaquiles. I usually switch up the meat depending on what I'm craving, and this visit I went with chorizo. The tortilla chips have that perfect balance of crisp edges and just enough sauce to soften them without turning soggy. The chorizo adds a savory, slightly smoky richness, while the toppings bring everything together with fresh, bright flavors. It's the kind of breakfast where every bite has a little crunch, a little spice, and plenty of flavor. I also love ordering a fresh orange juice alongside my coffee--it's become part of my usual routine here. There's something about fresh OJ with a comforting plate of chilaquiles that just makes breakfast feel extra special. The service has consistently been wonderful, and the atmosphere is warm and comfortable without feeling overly formal. After all these years, Presidio Cocina Mexicana remains one of those spots I genuinely enjoy returning to. Good food, great service, and that cozy neighborhood feel that keeps you coming back.

    I think I just found my new favorite Mexican restaurant!…read more The ambience here is charming. It's located in what looks like an old house, painted on the outside in a dark red paint. There are roses hanging from the ceiling, exposed brick, and colored lighting (would you notice more as the sun goes down). The wood ceilings really make this place special. There is a small bar in the corner. Don't forget to look up because there is a little door above with the guardian angel and children painted on it, and a couple of stained glass windows. From the minute we walked in, we were meeting with smiling faces. When you first walk in, you are inside the kitchen or at least right next to it. We started with a couple of drinks - a Corona and a Diablito, a sotol cocktail with lots of pureed mango. A basket of chips and a bowl of Green dip or brought to the table, and we were directed to the salsa bar back near the entrance. The salsa bar is fantastic, with several different kinds of salsa. We grabbed what tasted like a creamy tomatillo salsa, a pineapple salsa, a pico de gallo, and a creamy Serrano salsa. They were all so good that we couldn't say which was our favorite. I know that pineapple salsa just sent me over the moon! For an entree, hubby ordered a Sonoran burrito. He said the burrito was delicious, and kept pointing out how good the guacamole and side was. It wasn't especially big or small. I ordered the fajitas (steak and chicken combo) and the minute they came to the table sizzling, both my husband and I were surprised at how large this portion was. It was served with tortillas (you get your choice of corn or flour), black beans, and rice. The black beans were good - - I suppose they just tasted like black beans. I was surprised at how delicious the rice was because it's white and I expected it just to taste like white rice. But there was a creaminess to it and a flavor that I couldn't put my finger on but that I know was really yummy (butter, maybe? Cheese, maybe?? Idk). Good meat in my fajitas was super tender and the veggies were grilled just right. This was a really common really delicious meal. This place had been on my list for a long time and now that I finally been here, I'm kicking myself for not coming here sooner. The food was fantastic, the prices super reasonable, and it's set in a cozy, romantic setting. This place is going to be on a regular rotation for us!
