​Worst customer service I have ever experienced. We ordered 40 minutes before closing, got our food 15 minutes later, and were literally kicked out 10 minutes before they even closed. They refused to let us finish our meal in peace. Had they warned us, we would have just ordered takeout. When I tried to get a business card or even just the manager's name to report the incident, the staff told me the manager ordered them not to give out her info. Sneaky, unprofessional, and incredibly rude. Avoid this place.

Cochinita is some of the best Teriyaki in the region, originally coming to us from about 50km south straight out of Ensenada, this is their flagship and only US location and if you’re in San Diego it’s a must; bold of me to say, but in my heart it’s one of the city’s speciality dishes. I’ve been coming here since I was a child, and we’ve always been faithful to the chicken Minoru or the chicken Nomuraki if you want a more flavorful dish. It’s basically just a bed of rice with grilled chicken on top, but the Nomuraki goes a step above and adds seasoning, green onion, and an accompanying side of a picked cucmever salad. It’s not intensely pickley though, and it’s a very refreshing side to enjoy with the chicken. Everything is always fresh and steaming hot as they cook the chicken thighs right in front of you the only thing I’ve been instructed by my mom to do is to ask for the chicken without any skin. It does cost a little extra but I’ve never not ordered it like that and I’ll continue to do so. Also be sure to let them know if you want any condiments, they have pickled red onions, pickled jalapeños, and a signature red salsa. But truly I recommend anything this place has to offer a

Sheeeeeshhh! This place has amazing, simple and delicious plates at a reasonable price. You really can’t go wrong if you’re hungry and want great food. Give them a try, before the word gets out and they get super busy. I believe they recently reopened up again so I was a happy a local business was brought back to life. Enjoy!
