Review by Coleman Johnson

I stumbled upon El Costeño while getting gas at Chevron and couldn't resist trying their Mexican fare. 🌮 The Rockefeller burrito was a game changer - stuffed with flavorful ingredients that truly hit the spot! I also loved the carne asada fries with a unique pepper seasoning, adding a nice kick.

The outdoor seating is cozy, perfect for a casual lunch. While I experienced a bit of a service hiccup with Moises, the food quality more than made up for it. I'm glad I found this gem and will be back for more. 🌟
