    Steak Ranchero!
    John R.

    The frijoles and salsa to start was the eye opening reason we chose the right place for breakfast Our server was quick and friendly The horchata was great The chips were cooked here! The chili relleno and sauce was excellent The steak ranchero was absolutely P E R F E C T ! Such rich deep tomato and jalapeño flavor Again, the frijoles and rice and everything was R I C O EVERYTHING TASTED ABSOLUTELY HOME-COOKED, AND LARGE BEAUTIFUL PORTIONS. My only wish is that it was closer to the BAY AREA. If you are looking for a road trip for some great food and great service... This is a place! Be at Sacramento or the BAY AREA. We will definitely be in here again if and when in the area. Gracias to these guys!

    2 tacos: Birria (left) Pollo Asado al Carbon (right)

    The restaurant is located in a parking lot shared by a few other businesses just a few minutes off of i-5. The inside can fit about 50 people and is brightly decorated with authentic Mexican artwork. The service was friendly and attentive, and the food was good. I had a birria and chicken al carbon taco. I thought both tasted pretty good. Neither were spicy and each had well seasoned meat. The consome is a must for the birria. My girlfriend got the nachos and I was pretty jealous of those because they looked great.

    We stopped by while passing through town and it was highly recommended that we try Los Costenos for lunch. The service and food were very good. We both had the birria tacos. Some of the best Mexican food I have had in awhile. I will definitely stop in the next time I am in town.

    The beans were delicious, that's how we knew that it was a good place to order food.

    We are traveling from the Bay Area to Mount Shasta for a Glamping trip and, Wow! We were so fortunate to find this gem of a Mexican restaurant in Corning. We didn't was to eat the regular rest-stop fast food, and I am glad we took a chance and tried this. The beans were delicious, I took a picture after we devoured 2 plates of them. We ordered the mango habanero aguachile (amazing), ceviche de pescado & camarón tostadas (delicious), the appetizer coconut shrimp (yummy), the carne asada burrito (super good, it could have had more asada, but honestly their beans are so delicious it didn't matter), to finish off our son ordered the churro dessert... just look at the picture. Yes, it was as amazing as it looks, the perfect crunch and sweetness. The service was attentive and fast. The ambience was quiet, good for families, couples, and singles. Don't judge the restaurant by its outside worn out appearance. We are picky with our Mexican food, and this was authentic and delicious. I wasn't able to get a picture of the beans when the first came out or the burrito.

    Come here a lot! Camarones Zarandeados Carne Asada Burrito Fajitas Steak Ranchero Chips Salsa Beer Michelada Everything we've tried and enjoyed and left satisfied! It's like sitting at home but we don't have to cook, serve, or cleanup! If you're driving through town it's a good place to stop and have a sit down relaxed meal!

    Would come back to this place, the chips, salsa, and side of beans were nice. I ordered the chile rellenos plate (great), buddy grabbed a two item combo plate (good). Another had the queso birria tacos which were amazing. Service was ok, looked authentic.

    The food was okay. I got asada fries and they weren't that good. the chips tasted old, and the rice tastes old. The service was okay, the server came by once. The tables weren't being cleaned consistently as people were leaving, so leftover food sat on the tables around us the whole time we were in there.

    As soon as I stepped inside Los Costenos I was greeted with a complex scent prominent with cinnamon and clove, apparently the lingering aroma of another diner's chicken mole. Seafood is the featured specialty though, with 6 or 8 varied shrimp dishes, and grilled Octopus with your choice of sauces. Meal prices are average, but the menu does include tacos a la carte, a very budget-friendly and enticing option. My son had chicken tacos with beans and rice, as he always does, which he enjoyed. I ordered the carnitas which was tasty but a little dry, and wished I had opted for the octopus after all. Next time Pupa for sure.

    Mango margaritas. Yum.
    Julia J.

    Wanted to find a go to Mexican restaurant in Corning when we are here visiting my mom. Stopped by Los Costenos after reading the reviews and seeing that they serve margarita's and let me just say everything was amazing. The margarita's the service and the food. I will always get the Chicken Mole when I come here.. it was that delicious.

    Carne Asada Fries
    S C.

    We went her for lunch and the food and service were excellent. Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and efficient. I was so impressed that the food came out so quickly, in fact we were only half way through our chips and salsa. We ordered the chicken fajitas and carna asada fries, both were amazing. There were a lot of fun and delicious sauces on the table which was fun to experiment with. A lot of the negative reviews on here talk about their lack of sanitary conditions, we did not experience this at all. The pace was clean and there were no flies. We will certainly go back to this place again.
