But I came in tonight April 1st at 9 pm. The gentleman that took my order looked very professional and he was very kind and attentive. Everyone else in the back also was dressed professionally. The other times that I came I had to ask for my fries to be remade because they weren't fresh, and I asked for salt because they didn't have salt on them, the chicken nuggets were also not that crispy. But tonight when I came my fries were fresh and had salt, the chicken nuggets were crispy ! And the coffee is strong so that lets me know they used a good amount to make.

Only reason I came was convenience and now I regret it.

Let me tell you that I was super impressed at the flavors that were bursting in my mouth! The lengua, adobada, and al pastor were cooked to perfection. Pair it with radishes to add to the tacos or as a refreshing "chip" to clear your palate. We ate here multiple times and I can't wait to go back. Located in the heart of Gas Lamp, this place is located on the corner of of a busy street. I love that they are open till 2am so it's a great spot to have some hearty tacos after a long night exploring the town. Service is friendly and fast. It gets super crowded and tables fill up fast but luckily we secured a table either upstairs or in the outdoor area. Definitely would recommend trying this place if you're in San Diego... they also have a Las Vegas location as well.

We grabbed a late lunch at Hodad's today. We waited a few minutes by the entrance, and we were then…read moreseated at a high-top table. Our orders were taken quickly, and large waters with lemon were brought out to us. Our burgers came out in about 7 minutes and they were just what the doctor ordered. :) My chicken burger was especially delicious, and I'd asked for extra pickles, and let's just say that the Hodad's chefs did not disappoint. There had to be at least 15 pickles on this bad boy. YUM! Onion rings were crispy and delicious. M. loved his burger and as usual, his only complaint was that he wished it was bigger. Haha. We enjoyed our food and the fun, kitschy Hodad's dining area. I feel like every time I come here, I spot something on the walls, or dangling from somewhere, that I haven't seen before. It's always a good time at Hodad's and it is certainly worth a visit if you haven't been here before. Keep in mind they do have a limited menu (burgers, chicken burgers, veggie burgers, fries, rings, shakes & some beverages and beers.) However, the table next to us ordered shakes and they looked hella good. Next time for us, for sure!! Mahalo!

The burger was juicy, perfectly put together, and every bite had this incredible depth of flavor that's hard to explain -- you just have to try it. It didn't feel like fast food at all, more like something you'd expect from a sit-down place. And the cookies and cream milkshake? That thing alone is worth the trip. It's thick, creamy, and tastes like they actually care about what goes into it. Not one of those watery, flavorless shakes you get at most places. I ended up finishing it way too fast and immediately wanted another one. The whole experience just felt solid from start to finish. Food came out fresh, it was priced fairly for the quality you're getting, and I left actually satisfied. Will 100% be back -- probably sooner than I should admit.

Unfortunately, the staff attitude was surprisingly rude. While I was standing there, a staff member walked behind me and twice said, "watch your back, sir." I'm a woman. Whether it was meant to provoke a reaction or passed off as a "joke," it came across as mocking and targeted, and none of the other staff appeared to check it or even acknowledge it. For a deli in the heart of Bankers Hill, you'd expect basic professionalism and courtesy. Instead, the vibe felt entitled and dismissive. I've been to other delis around town with far kinder service. I won't be returning.

The restaurant is outdoors with lots of shade. Service was great, ordering was quick and easy, and food came out pretty fast too. I'd say the only downside is that parking is a bit tough. I had to park slightly farther away and walk over, and even then, I just got lucky with finding a spot.

Dennise seated us and was so kind, she even shared a few of her favorite menu items since it was our first visit. Our server Anelle was great as well. She was friendly, attentive, and helped us pick some really good dishes. We tried the Tacos Dorados de Papa, El Sampler de la Abuela, and La Bomba, and for appetizers the Burrito de Machaca con Frijoles Puercos and the sweet corn tamal (which ended up being my favorite). The food and ambiance were great, but the service from Dennise and Anelle really stood out. They made our birthday brunch feel special.

Cramped and loud, but nicely decorated and serving solid authentic meals. Mexican Latte-9/10: Pretty straightforward. A solid, nostalgic spiced coffee. Mazapan Latte-10/10: A novelty menu item, both nostalgic and tasty. With a sweetened condensed milk rim and mazapan dust, this sweet coffee is a must order. Chilaquiles-10/10: Cocina 35 knows how to throw down the best Mexican breakfast item: the chilaquiles. The Verde was good but didn't pack much heat. The Salsa Secreta was our favorite; a creamy 3-chile salsa with an artichoke flavor, this one packs an enjoyable amount of heat. The Chipotle was another yummy and creamy option, making your nose run but still very enjoyable. Frijoles Puercos-7/10: They were pretty standard. I've definitely had better. They served their purpose as a good side. Concha Rellena-7.5/10: Another creative menu item. Whipped cream and whole strawberries sandwiched between two french toast-style concha halves and drenched in cajeta. It was sweet and warm, but would've been more enjoyable with fresher and/or sliced strawberries. Fun to order, but a regular concha is better suited for enjoying with your coffee. Service-6/10: Again, Cocina 35 gets packed, so service isn't as attentive. Our party had to order and wait for water, ask for refills, call the server over for more orders and again for the bill, and wouldn't speak to us in Spanish. I witnessed other tables be spoken to in Spanish, but upon ordering I'd only be responded to in English. I know I'm a white Mexican, but native tongue is nice when I make it clear I'd like to order in Spanish. Overall, a fun spot with solid menu items. The samplers are pricey but probably the best bang for your buck. They do the classics very well, and are very much worth your visit!
