Reviews for Cochinito in Spokane, WA
This taqueria was excellent. Stopped by for dinner and ordered the tacos, octopus, and a corn based side dish. All of them were... flavorful, and I would come back for another meal. Read more
Fresh handmade tortillas everybody looking for fresh Mexican food. Someone said this isn't Mexican in a review I read and they... were wrong. This is food made by someone who understands ingredients and puts out gourmet tacos for a good price. You can gothere on Taco Tuesday and get 3 tacos for $12 that will blow your mouth and mind figuring out what genius decided to make thesefood bombs in your mouth. I tried the lamb and fish taco. Look at the ingredients in the menu. They exponentially combine to adifferent level than typical tacos. I appreciate the chef's creative mind. I want to add that they have specials and I am sad tomiss their Valeriana risotto special. I hope they add it again for my next visit. Read more
The food was tasty, but portions are small and you have to place your order before you can sit at a table. When you walk in you... stand in line and have to order and pay at the bar, including tip for the upcoming service. You then pickup your order numberand proceed to get your own utensils and water and find an open table to sit. Eventually the food comes, that is if you realizethat you have to place your order number on the metal holder on the table, otherwise your server takes the food on a tour aroundthe bar not sure what to do with it. Also that moment is the last time you see your server. I got the octopus taco which from myexperience was too chewy, not what I expected. On the other hand, the lamb taco was good. The taco bawl was good too as well asthe horchata barracha, though it was small of a portion. Read more
Excellent adventurous tacos! Be open to trying them all?a variety of flavors! Loved the octopus the most! Even the chips and... salsas are amazing! These guys do it well! Read more
We come here often & usually have only good things to say about it but last time we were there the older lady taking our order... was pretty rude. We got 10 street tacos with 5 drinks and it was well over $100. We asked for another small taco shell for theleftover meat and the older lady wanted us to get back in line to pay for a soft shell. Maybe she was just having a really badday but I couldn?t believe the customer service. The owner is awesome & does an incredible job. Very cool atmosphere andeverything we?ve tried is very flavorful. The only negative is everything on the menu is fairly pricey, you don?t get very muchfood and some of the staff isn?t very friendly. Read more
I nearly shed tears because it was like eating a taco for the first time. This place takes it up so many notches, I don't think... I'll ever eat a taco from anywhere else again. This place is unforgettable! Perfect portions, excellent cocktails, quickservice, presentation beyond sharp. This place is unforgettable and my new favorite. Read more
These people really know their way about hospitality! I am not one who likes self serve, stand in line to order places.... Cochinito not only made that part enjoyable, but the drinks, food and service were exceptional. Tonight was our first time in,it was VERY busy, and every member of the team were on their toes, making success happen. I think they have a real success here,in a spot in Downtown Spokane, where many have failed before. This is not a Mexican restaurant, not even a taco restaurant. Itis a place where you can get great flavors, satisfying portions, and terrific bevies too! Read more
Both of these salsas are very visually unappealing. The rice and beans had no flavor and the corn tortillas were so thick they... were wet. We always look forward to good Mexican food, but this did not hit the mark. The chips were good and the margaritaswasn't bad, but there was more ice than margaritas. Read more
