    Always pass by this hidden gem and finally got to try the food. I got a chicken guisado plate. I'm not sure what the sauce was that covered the chicken, but it was very flavorful and the chicken was tender. It comes with rice and beans and fresh corn tortillas. Simple plate with a lot of flavor. I will definitely be back!

    10 out of 10 for the 15+ years I've been coming over to Super Cocina. It's the most authentic, homemade food that might be too "mexican" for people who are mainly used to tacos, burritos and texmex food with the typical yellow cheese and sour cream. Super Cocina is for the people by the people. I truly recommend it for anyone who wants to experience real mexican food.

    Chilaquiles rojas super stale hard chips:(
    Jessy S.

    Super bummed the first time we went was great but we went sunday and our chilaquiles were super hard chips , we wanted to say something but there was a line of people and we were starving. We decided to call today and tell them but they didnt care. We were hoping they would give us two fresh orders for another time but they said no. I offered to prove the transaction also, as we payed with a card. We wont go back here again.

    Without a doubt, one of the best home-cooked Mexican restaurants you'll find in SD. Don't miss it.

    I grabbed a quick lunch here on Labor day. I got the pozole with a corn pudding cake. Parking is a little limited but I got a spot within a block. The pozole is okay. The corn pudding cake is amazing. Cold bites of corn pudding cake were perfect after eating a warm lunch on a warm day. Not too sweet.

    amazing service, menu looked complicated but when i got here the staff couldn't have been more helpful picking what i wanted sitting out on the patio while the sun went down enjoying what felt like a home cooked meal was a treat

    Chipotle Chilaquiles

    Craving chilaquiles this morning and found this place was less than a mile away. It is definitely a neighborhood spot. Luckily they have a small parking lot on the side otherwise it would be street parking and walking. Very spacious inside and clean. Lots of seating and not too crowded for a Sunday morning. They have coffee in a pot ready to serve up, which I liked. It's buffet style with lots of meats, appetizers, beans and rice. We got our plates to-go but the empanadas looked good so I got one with cheese one with meat. Not as crispy as they looked. As for when we got home, the chilaquiles were good, not great. Kind of soggy by the time we got home but the eggs were fresh. Much cheaper than elsewhere and not too long to wait. If you're in the neighborhood, stop by and support a local business. I think we'll be back for dinner.

    My sons and I have been stopping by Super Cocina for years and it is easily one if our go to's when they are back in town visiting. Supporting locally owned small gems like this makes our visit all the better. The owner is well known in the community and gives back. Upon entering the establishment, you are offered samples of the wide array of choices. On our most recent visit, we decided to stick with the basics: tacos, rice, beans, sope, tostada, everything good as usual. Warm, inviting and just like abuelita's kitchen. Run, don't walk! Support local!

    This place is delicious! Authentic food with friendly service. Be sure to ask for a sample if you are unsure what to order. Everything was so good and there is a big variety of options. Can't wait to go back!

    Chicken mole
    Mikey H.

    I have driven by many times, and have read great things, but I haven't had the chance to stop by until recently. I was actually going to Canada, but it was really crowded, so why not try something new. Parking is street or if you're there after 6, there are some spaces behind the market. Friendly greeting when I walked in, I didn't know what to order. Looked over the menu boards and I remembered reading they had mole. So I asked and ordered the plate to go with rice and beans. I also ordered a chicken burrito for a friend. The chicken was really tender and the sauce was delicious. The chicken burrito was very good too. It too was filled with rice and beans and huge! Definitely worth checking out. They have a small patio outside. I look forward to exploring some of the other dishes!

    Is beer served? If not, can we bring some in for our group of 6?

    Yes they sell beer there. They have Modelo, Pacifico, and maybe 1-2 other brand

    Does anyone know if their beans and rice contain meat products (stock, both, lard, etc)?

    Our beans are vegan. We use vegetable oil. Our rice is made with chicken broth. We do have many vegan options, ask our staff and they will be happy to help you

    This place is so cool for celebrating special occasions…read more We celebrated our anniversary and they gave us a candle with our names on it!! So sweet The interior is so cool - very gothic medieval vibes inside!! We tried a couple of items but specifically LOVED the squash blossom and the crab donut and the duck memelita! The fried chicken tacos were pretty good as well Personally I did not love the fondue - comes with corn tortillas on the side - it's not my favorite style Drinks were great - I tried the guava Paloma and liked it a lot but wish it was a bit more sweet more guava flavor

    Four of us dined at Quixote last night. I can see why it takes a few weeks to get a reservation…read more The place is truly magnificent. We ordered about six small plates, and they were all delicious and unique. Hard to pick a favorite. I'd say the shrimp tacos were absolutely incredible. Everything else was packed with flavor and very different than anything you will encounter at any other restaurant. It is special. My only complaint is that the place is so dark that you can barely read the menu. Also, being so dark, you can't get a good look at the food or even see color. And I would think that the food is beautifully presented. We are in our 60s. That might have something to do with our inability to see anything in that low light condition. We had to pull our phones out so that we could light up the menu and check out the food we were about to eat. It does make for a dramatic ambience. There are thousands of candles that add to the experience. But I gotta knock them a point because I couldn't see my food or read the menu without help.

The gentleman/waiter handed us the menu and went on his way. Chips and salsa along with waters for the table were brought and then that was when the service of our waiter went downhill. We ordered the ahi tuna and guacamole for our appetizers but the timing for the meal was so off. It was a long wait before the waiter even checked back on us and which is when I asked for a refill on my water and chips. We had order drinks as well. The smoked old fashion was good and the ahi tuna appetizer portion was plentiful. There were some parts of the diced ahi that was a bit chewy. The gaucamole portion was large and it wasn't until I asked another waiter did my refill of water and chips arrive. For entree, we got the scallops with corn cake, a salad and I had the poblano burger. I asked for the burger to be cooked to medium. When the entrees arrived my burger was overcooked with no pink in sight. The flavor of the burger was good but the burger was definitely dry as can be. The corn cake with scallop was interesting it was almost like the corn cake was a croquet that encased a corn salsa. Overall the food was okay but the service left a lot to be desired. The waiter and the end seemed to put up a fake act when the check came. Since we asked for the check it seemed like the waiter was on hyper speed. Overall the view is nice but the food and service did not meet the expectations.
