Reviews for El Cotorro - Taqueria and Heladeria (craft tacos and ice cre in Albuquerque, NM

I haven't been here in over a year but I was just remembering their tacos. My wife obviously likes their elotes. And the... micheladas are tasty. It's always a good time there. Try the fried nopales tacos. Read more

Were just wandering around near our AirBnB, decided that when in Rome... :) Had a carnitas taco, braised oxtail taco, elote,... margarita, and a Desert Fog IPA from the local Marble Brewery. Everything was delicious, good chance we'll be stopping in againduring our trip even though there are loads of restaurants here. A huge shout out to our server (so sorry I didn't get yourname!) for giving us recommendations for other good local eats, especially where we might find some decent mole... Stay tuned... Read more

Customer service was superb they were attentive, patient and friendly, we had a pleasant and fun attitude. We return the second... time and plan to go a third time this week..The experience is one of a kind presentation was gorgeous, your tastebuds will danceand sing with a bit of spice if chosen what a spectacular & delicious taste they have there. Having Chef Javier Romero is anamazing blessing, he is a true gem amongst our city, congratulations on your FIRST Place ???? AWARD for best vegetarian tacos inall of Albuquerque We for-see he could likely own his own restaurant and/or taco truck chains. Read more

Really wanted to rate one star however I am fair and a business owner myself. I love to support local and I love my city. What... got me is we spent $79 on tacos and she ?the manager? gave us three salsas total for 15 tacos. This is BURQUE! Charged us .75cents per extra salsa. Just posting an honest review. $79 is a lot of money for tacos and no salsa. I will say the patio is niceand the cooks did well. Read more

From the moment we walked in, Nadine was amazing and sold us on the vegan green chile calabactias taco, so good! Micheladas,... tacos and the vegan coconut ice cream were amazing! We'll be back! Read more

Best tacos in town. Helps that I live down the street. Been coming to this Nob Hill eatery for years. Great staff. Better food.

Lamb barbacoa and al pastor burritos were unique and delicious! The price was too steep for me, but if I were to win the lottery... I'd definitely go again! Read more

My favorite place to eat in all of New Mexico. This taqueria serves excellent food which is both high quality & has an amazing... flavor profile. Something happened though?. They have gotten very stingy with salsa, once upon a time they had an unlimited opensalsa bar oasis of flavor & heat. Now you get one tiny ounce of salsa for every 3 tacos you order. Additional salsa costs 70cents which isn?t much however with the price paid to get 4 or 5 tacos getting one little ounce is a joke. Whatever you thinkyou?re saving in food cost your losing big time in goodwill with customers. Spent over a 100$ with a party of 7 and we weregiven 4 small cups of salsa. We asked for an additional 2 or 3 more and rather than making this meal for us we were told to gopurchase additional salsa. So now our whole experience is tainted. Went back in line to purchase salsa for tacos. Had to wait inline, didn?t get to enjoy the meal or company. My hope is you change it to one salsa for every two tacos. And if we?re allseated and we?re short a salsa just hand out an additional salsa or two. Portion size has also gone down in the course of thelast year or so. Please don?t lose what once made el cotorro the absolute best. Read more
