  Took a break from my San Diego business trip and headed to Old Town today! Decided to try Cafe Coyote for lunch—the staff was super friendly and the portions were huge! I accidentally ordered two dishes that were a bit too similar, but the cocktails were amazing. Definitely coming back next time.

  During my visit to Old Town San Diego, this restaurant was the only one that was fully occupied. The portions were generous, and the cuisine was authentic Mexican. The ambiance was enhanced by pleasant music, and the servers were both helpful and entertaining. The overall dining experience was exceptional and delicious.
  
  During my second visit, the lobster was exceptionally delectable. We also indulged in another churro for dessert, accompanied by fried ice cream. However, the latter dessert lacked the characteristic crispiness of fried ice cream, resulting in a soggy crust.

  The restaurant is located in Old Town the atmosphere is super fun. Loved the decorations and we had a great seat up on the second floor balcony. Came for Cinco De Mayo celebrations and all came in hungry. I forgot to take more pictures of the food. My hubby and I shared the Coyote plate which had Carne Asada and shrimp enchiladas. The carne asada was terrible, the cut of steak was cheap and very fatty. The enchiladas were delicious 😋 my daughter order the Birria Plate which I thought was good. My hubby said it was mid in his opinion. The kids had a cheese quesadilla and a bean and cheese burrito. They said that they enjoyed them. Overall the restaurant was not the best but great vibe and location are great.

  If you’re in the San Diego area, stop what you are doing and go to Café Coyote! The food is amazing. The atmosphere is fun. The service is top-notch. Trevor, the general manager is a first class operator and engages customers with intention and courtesy. Try the pumpkin flan! You don’t want to miss this amazing San Diego icon! Our server, Javier,, was the best!

  Great Mexican food! Huge dining areas inside and out! I had the Pollo a la Crema dinner. The sauce was great, made with jalapeno and cilantro cream sauce. They make their own tortillas and they are great! The service was also very good and attentive.
