Reviews for CDT Cocina in Fresno, CA
Seven stars, 1. Amazing fresh food with great prices 2. Attentive staff that provide quick service 3. Great menu options, vegan,... family, mix and match 4. Great support for women owned businesses 5. A salsa that wasn?t too spicy, but spicy enough A visit tothis restaurant, means you can ask any of the staff members any question. Clean, and beautiful new ambiance is fresh in thetower district. A menu that allows you to order for not just yourself but has the option and instructions on how to store andshare the flavors you will get. The tamales came unhusked and ready to eat with a fork. Tacos had delicious combinations ofmeat, vegetables, and tortilla. This is a must stop in tower district Read more
I was excited to go to the new location of the old Casa de Tamales, now CDT. We were there last for Christmas tamales when they... were selling out of the back door of their present location. It is a beautiful place, much better than their former storefront... I wanted to love it like I used to love their food, but alas, it was not the same: the sweet corn tamale was notsweet and rather dry, even after pouring the sauce over it. The rice was undercooked and did not have much taste. My sons didenjoy their chicken tamales and the vegan portobello and the artichoke and spinach, as well as the jalapeño and cheese, Thesaving grace was the chips & guacamole, which had a nice bite to it, but too many onions. Perhaps we visited on an off night. Read more
Great location in Tower. Parking in a lot just next to the building. Good little shop size, hope they open up their back patio.... If you have a group over 8, call ahead and let them know. Seating is a premium otherwise. The food is delicious, the staff issuper helpful and accommodating. We had several people both gluten and corn free and they were more than happy to make changesand serve them. A dedicated gluten free Facility that knows how to handle items to prevent cross contamination is a wonderfulfind here. We ordered some of the family meals to feed a bunch of kids and parents. Everything was stellar and even picky kidshad no qualms. Their cauliflower tacos and carnitas tamales stood out for me. The cauliflower was crispy, not oily at all. Fullof flavor and filling. The tamales were fluffy and held together well. Everything tasted fresh and had a depth of flavor youcan?t often find in foods with restrictions. The food was eaten so quickly I didn?t even get any pictures. Stop here if you?rein the area. Read more
We loved our experience at CDT Cocina ! The vegan tacos and tamales are delicious and definitely worth to try it. Really nice... place in Tower :) Read more
So good! Main thing here are their tamales but the tacos are so good as well. I love the cauliflower tacos here, fried crispy... and the perfect crunch. The tortillas are homemade. Everything is so high quality. We went for a la carte but you can also getas a plate with rice and beans. The prices are very reasonable. Their cocktail menu looks delicious, we shared the watermelonmargarita and it was so refreshing. For $7 for a cocktail this is the best deal in Tower for amazing hand crafted qualitydrinks. I loved Casa De Tamales, same great food, kicked up a notch in presentation and atmosphere! Read more
VEGAN TAMALES! That's all you need to know. This is one of the best vegan spots I have ever been to. The tamales are incredibly... flavorful and the service is amazing. You can make the salads fully vegan as well. Highly recommend the mushroom tamale. TheFarmers Market is also good. Read more
Just tried CDT for the 1st time, I got their Vegan tamales, one was spinach and artichoke and the other was portabello and... brocolli, I got the beans and rice and Cucumber Lemonade with it. The tamales were good, I loved the pineapple salasa they addedon top. The interior of the restaurant was really beautiful, nice place to have dinner. They also have a margarita bar, I got myfood to go, I will have to dine in eventually. The service was great, located in the heart of Tower District in Fresno. I'LL beback to try their other vegan tamales. The rice was tasty and the beans were whole pinto beans, which I love. The two item platewas $10.50, very affordable. UPDATE: tried their Farmers Market and Sweet corn, my new fave duo! They also had a pineapple thymelemonade that was AMAZING! Read more
Best tamales ever ! I have been going to CDT for almost 10 years now. The tamales are not made with lard. There's vegan,... vegetarian and regular meat options. The service is always great! I look forward to ordering tamales for the holidays! (2tamales and a fresh Mexican drink for under $10) Read more
