I'm vegetarian, and came here with two others with no dietary requirements. There were a lot of options for everyone, and prices are very affordable. Had the veggie deluxe burrito which was less than $10 for a very hefty serve --- I couldn't finish it. But it was good and I'd definitely recommend it! read more

today seems to be Mexican food review day. This place isn't totally authentic.. but I love their veggie options! tofu burritos and blackened mushroomed tacos.. yum! read more

Been here several times with a couple of my gfs who live down the street. Fairly inexpensive tacos and burritos, but every time I've eaten here, I'm always left dissatisfied. However, their salsa is delicious and spicy. Their chicken is hit or miss when it comes to being dry or moist, but been consistently bland. I pretty much douse the taco and burritos with salsa and it kind of makes it better. The carne asada was tender, but again, lacking the flavor I typically expect. I'll give them credit for their mushroom burritos, tasty and a great vegetarian option. Never had an issue with the service. I'd never go out of my way to dine here, but I'm not opposed to eating here when I'm in the area and I'm with my gfs. read more

This is as 'hole in the wall' as it gets. The restaurant is tucked away within the Reno Room bar. And most times, I'm not down to be cramped up next to some strangers. But given that there is a bar steps away, and we can keep the drinky drinks rolling, I have no qualms rubbin elbows with fellow Mexican food lovers. I've had almost everything on the menu. I have never been let down. The food is tasty, not too greasy, and totally worth the prices they're valued at. Their salsa... the spiciest in the west. BUT SO STUPID ADDICTING. It's a very love hate relationship I have with their salsa. It's not 5 star worthy because of ambience, or restaurant worthiness... But it's a grand spankin time regardless. Just go, and you'll see what I mean. 5 stars, Rae approved. read more

Okay....maybe I'm a bit biased towards this place since I did live upstairs from the joint for 5 years. For nearly 2 years Cocorenos was my dinner. Why you might ask? Well, it was the only thing open past 10pm. and no...I'm not a chubby bubby!!!! I started ordering the shredded beef chimichangas, moved onto the wet burritos, and have happily settled on the shrimp cancun salad with blackened mushrooms. Far healthier!!! There's usually a place to sit unless you show up around dinner time when it does get packed. There are only 4 tables that sit 2 comfortably....4 people at one table does get kinda packed. YOU CAN ALSO SIT IN THE BAR AND EAT. A lot of people don't realize the waitress will go out there and serve you regardless if you're at the bar or at a booth inside the Reno Room. But, keep in mind, if you're eating in the bar, the restaurant is full, so your service WON'T be as fast. I love the endless amount of chips and salsa, one of my favorite parts. One of my least favorite parts is the parking. The restaurant shares a parking lot in the back of the building with The Library coffee shop, the piercing shop, and all the rest of the jerks who park there even though they aren't patrons of the building. (you people know who you are! parking in the lot and then going to EJ Malloy's. GRRRR!!!!!). Sometimes parking in that general area is a bit tough, but it's definitely not the restaurants fault. But be aware! read more

As a Vegan it's difficult to find places that I can enjoy as much as my carnivore friends, this place provides us both a delicious opportunity. The prices are reasonable. The salsa is perfection (it's like a mini riot in my mouth that makes my nose run and of course there is the inevitable butt burn the following day but, it's totally worth it) and while it is lacking in space and stylish décor, you can bet your sweet soon to be burning ass you'll forget all about those preconceived notions the moment that food lands in your mouth. Don't forget to watch their fabulous commercial. http://youtu.be/OizVcq3wqTQ read more

The food is so good, I seriously just come for the abondigas soup, best in town. They run out quickly. I've had everything so far nothing has disappointed me. The waitress is a hit n miss but that's what take out is for. This place is small just a warning but is connected to one of the coolest dive bar, Chelsea makes the best rasberry tom collins. read more

Cocorenos - Yummy - Mexican Near Me - Long Beach, California

My husband & I are addicted to the tacos. For $4.50, i get 2 freshly made ground beef tacos that I can only say are devoured on the spot. They remind me of the tacos I ate growing up. The service is quick & friendly. The only downside is we have to leave our jackets on the balcony because we smell like fried tacos, but well worth it! read more

Cocorenos - Mexican Near Me - Long Beach, California

Excellent vegan/vegetarian menu with a lot of options, the food was insanely delicious, service was fast (specially when you're super hungry), and the food portion was a lot! I recommend for everyone to give this place a try if you haven't. You won't be disappointed. read more

Average Mexican food with average service, it's just a regular local eatery. Nothing special.

A group of us came here for dinner on Friday night. It was our first visit and I picked it based on the ratings here. We first sat down at a table in the Coco Renos side, but then realized we were going to have more people in our party than we thought. We found bigger booths on the Reno Room side so we opted for that side. Once everyone in our party arrived (7 of us) we managed to squeeze into a booth. Our waitress was friendly although being a big party, some of us were undecisive and we ended up taking forever to order. One of our party members was a bit needy and I give the waitress props for keeping her cool. The food was awesome and the prices were great. I would recommend going if you have 4 people or less though. I was sweating it out while eating. I agree that the salsa is amazing. It was definately spicy. I would hit this place up again. read more

How very disappointing. Went in to try the beef tacos and the ground beef was burnt and just nasty!! I won't be coming back. C'mon man!!! How can you sell, however cheap, old stale, and recooked meat? Just a disappointment. Had to throw them out! I went in around 8:00 pm -Tuesday, 10/28. Thanks for your response. read more

I make it a point to come here at least once or twice a month for a shredded beef taco plate and a Guinness. It's definitely a small place, but the food is worth it. I'm always happy to be greeted with a basket of their fresh chips & salsa. I've had other items on their menu (the burritos are tasy and huge), but I try to limit myself from walking out of the place feeling overstuffed. After reading other reviews here, I'm eager to make it a mushroom or tofu taco plate next time I stop by. read more

Dined here for the first time tonight and became slightly disappointed after I found a short black hair in my Al Pastor Burrito :/ I notified the waiter of what had happened and he the offered me to remake my burrito to which I had lost my appetite for so I said no. After I noticed that the cooks were not wearing hairnets or gloves while handling food. Although the cooking area is open and available for the public to see, it was also very disappointing how they didn't have PPE's on. On the bright side, the margarita was delicious and strong. But don't think I'll dine here for food again. read more

First time here and not the last... TheBurrito A+. The salsa with chips hit the spot. The services was fast and friendly. read more

Still open during covid. Still one of the best burritos in town. My favorite used to be their chicken burrito. Now I'm into the sole fish.

Its like getting food from the lunch truck. Very dry tacos I guess that's what you get on taco Tuesday the price is to high for this tasteless food Iam not a drinker but I figured if your drunk then these tacos are amazing. The quesadilla are very grease and give you gas. I try a few things off the menu just to give them the benefit of the doubt but They keep on letting me down. I live one block away so its the only Mexican joint that's walking distance read more

OMG this place is sooooo tiny....but the food was actually good. I am totally going back to try the veggie burrito because this time I had the veggie soft tacos and boy they were good. Err...craving it!! Yay!!! Go! Go now!! read more

I ordered a carne asada plate and got a carne asada taco plate, the carne asade was filled with a gigantic piece of fat...the size 1" x 3" long...worst food ever...I used to like this place...but paid $92 (with tip) for take out and it was horrible...I threw it away and I won't go back! Just lost a customer with all your fat! read more

I usually have no issues with this place and have been here frequently, BUT I got a vegan mushroom burrito from here 2 days ago and got the worst food poisoning! I don't know if they accidentally put lard, dairy or something not vegan in my burrito but it literally killed me. I threw up consistently every 30 minutes for over 14 hours. And the crazy thing is I specified VEGAN. So I will not be going here anymore. If you're vegan beware, you don't want to go through that... Trust me. read more

Ok Im a sucker for good mexican food, not Tex mex....or cali mex...but I will make an exception for this place. The food is legit! I love this hole in the wall spot. Taco tuesday, yes its a great deal, but really the food is fresh. Where can you find tofu tacos that actually taste good? HERE!!!! thats where! The vegetarian burrito with jicama is huge filled with black beans, rice, guacamole, and the crunch of jicama. Then smothered in tomatillo sauce Hello? why are you still reading this, go eat! and the margaritas (house or mango) are not overly sweet and pack a punch. The servers are incredibly friendly and are quick to bring the fresh, warm chips and salsa read more

I ignore the fact that they cook my vegetarian food on the same surface as the meats, the suggestions and notices that they are unsanitary, the likelihood that I will have to wait for a seat or resort to sitting in the bar area with local boners. The tofu tacos and chips y salsa are awesome. read more

A+++++++++ The only complaint I have is that I didnt get here sooner! Absolutely delish, I had the combo plate with a beef taco and a cheese enchilada. The salsa and chips get an A+++ The two guys working were really cool, and great hosts. I will return probably today! read more

Cocoreno's is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants. I usually order the Chicken Enchilada and Blackened Mushroom Taco Combo Plate. Their salsa is great and has a nice kick to it. On a busy day there might be a wait as this place is really small and parking can be tough to find. read more

Cocorenos - Chicken Enchilada & Blackened Mushroom Taco Combo Plate - Mexican Near Me - Long Beach, California

My fish burrito had over-salted fish and cheap tasting cheese. The next day was not pretty, and I haven't even had that issue with cheaper "Mexican" food places. Service was alright. My friend ordered a vegan burrito and that was actually pretty flavorful. Overall, I wouldn't really recommend this place for the food. read more

I have been a fan of Coco's for many years. There is a reviewer below who stated that they are over priced...that may be the case if you are comparing them to Taco Bell! Two people can order 2 dinners, and a round of sodas for less than $20. That is a deal, items are fresh and made to order. Guac is handmade as is salsa and all vegetables are chopped there in the kitchen. So, if you think $20 for dinner for 2 with sodas included is too much. Taco Bell may be the place for you.. They do not make all food fresh, most of thier products are pre made including the meat, all sauces are packed and full of chemicals.. Coco's is not like that at all! Coco's has a nice selection of veggie dishes along with the basic standards. It has a small 4 table 6 barstool compacity. that isn't a draw back , but for those of us who are large, overweight it may be uncomfortable seating. That is just the truth. 5 Stars... all the way. read more

I really like this little spot, obviously if you're at Reno Room, it's so convenient & very reasonable. Had great service from them every time, which is huge for me. Roxy is awesome and I recommend both Reno & this spot for sure! read more

Long Beach gem. Always good food, moderately priced, quick and friendly staff. You'll love it. You're welcome.

It is intimate ( close quarters) ,sharing access to a bar. Having a small space makes sense to be able to have a good turn around, We were lucky enough to hit during a slower moment on a Tuesday. Server was pleasant and answered our questions. Food was served promptly, and with the crowd, the server was hopping. She also suggested mushroom tacos. YUMMY!!!! Food was amazing. I am seeing someone who is vegetarian, so I have been looking up restaurants. This one is great if you want a good STIFF margarita some amazing food, and want to have the ability to play pool or hang in bar after to relax. Planning to go back!. read more

Only got ONE OUT OF THREE items ordered LMAO look I f you can't follow a simple three item order, how well do you handle recipes I have to wonder? If anyone thinks there isn't a correlation... look at a recipe, it's a really simple list of ingredients and instructions, this restaurant could not successfully fulfill two out of three dishes ordered. What we did receive looks and smells great, but if you can't make up an order, I can't make myself give you money again. read more

Love this place. If you're looking for ambiance, this isn't the joint. It's a hole in the wall but it's fantastic. Yes, it's attached to a bar with loud music. I regret not coming here more often since I moved to Long Beach. Awesome veggie and vegan options, too. The blackened mushroom tacos are killer! The staff is super polite and friendly. read more

Food was amazing! I came at midnight, service and food was great. Ordered margaritas & nachos... basically half the menu since I came in with coworkers. Def recommend this place if you are in the area. The Place is super small BUT they are connected to their bar which is a plus. read more

Cheap place to get food and drinks. It's a bar, it's loud. The waitress was NOT nice. The food is okay, could taste better. The nachos we got were supper stuffed, we couldn't even get to the chips. read more

Sanitation and food contamination is bad but not enough to make the food taste bad , it's the type of food that makes your stomach hurt because there not the cleanest but doesn't taste bad so you wouldn't even guess it but if your drunk you don't care like 75% of the people their. I guess you just have to be lucky not to get food poisoning from here my sister got food poisoning from eating a bad chile relleno and everyone else had upset stomachs . The cook had a handful of tofu in his hand along with a dirty rag and he picked something up the floor with the tofu in his hand !!!!!!!! I don't completely blame the staff I blame the owner for not properly training its staff and evaluating their sanitation and food safety knowledge. read more

I loved this place! On a recent trip to preform a show with my band in SoCal I stayed at my guitarists house right around the corner from here. He took us after we all got back from the airport and we enjoyed the food so much we came back three times within the course of a week. The vegetarian options are sweet! The cerveza is cold and cheap! read more

This is a good place for quick, veggie-friendly Mexican food. Yes, it's tiny, and I don't know how hard it usually is to get a table; we were here around 7 on a Thursday and there was plenty of seating. The free chips and salsa are really good. The salsa has a nice kick to it without being too spicy. The tofu tacos are okay, but it's just plain tofu, so it's not very flavorful. It would be better if it had some kind of marinade or seasoning. The rice and refried beans were good, though the rice was a little bit dry. The service is quick and the prices are reasonable, at least for someone who's used to eating in Orange County. read more

The last time I came here I had a bad experience customer service wise, however, the server did apologize for the wait when he brought out my order. Additionally, the manager sent me a message apologizing. But I must say, I love this place regardless; they have great food at reasonable prices. Parking can be a bit of a pain but there's usually some open spots on the streets. I love that they're vegetarian friendly & the bar has good beer options. read more

Don't come here! Parking is bad. Inside, It's a super tight squeeze and not enough seating. Not to mention, you're sitting on bar stools back to back with people. Anyway. Yesterday. Came in with a friend and theres literally no where to sit. We walked in to use the restroom and they have a condiment bottle for their soap dispenser ? Funny. Anyway, we went back out and asked the SERVER if we can order food in the bar (because there are "booths" in there.) SHE SAYS YES! We go in sit down, and waited ... and waited .... more f#@$ing waiting ... wondering, uhh so do we order at the bar for the food or what? Now, even tho the restaurant section was full, it looked like everyone had already had their plate so what's the hold up? She knew we were back there. TEN long minutes later, we quit. Bye bye! Terrible place, terrible customer service. read more

It was 4 o'clock in the afternoon, I hadn't had lunch yet and was in desperate need of a Scooby Snack. Today, I didn't want to eat meat because I had gorged myself this past weekend. I knew what I needed: 1) One made to order Blackened Mushroom Taco topped with Coco Reno's Avocado corn relish, American and Jack cheese, fresh tomato salsa and a little lime dressing on a warm soft flour tortilla. 2) One made to order grilled tofu taco with the same toppings but in a crunchy corn tortilla 3) Chips and fresh tomato salsa Not bad for $5.00. I strongly recommend eating it there while it's hot and fresh. Sometimes if you order it to go, the soft tacos get kinda wet and gushy. Yes, I had to have a bottle of Corona and a lime wedge to wash down my taco goodness. read more

Que rico! Delicoius mushroom tacos (thank you Yelpers) and grilled mahi mahi tacos. And v. good fresh chips and really tasty salsa--I didn't even crave guac, the salsa was flavorful with just enough zip. Teeny tiny so I imagine you have to get the timing just right. My friend and I did and we were totally thrilled to find a new Mexican place. Good service, food made quickly and to order. There's a bar to eat at so it's also a good place for those solo nights out on the town. And cheap cheap! Our two meals and a beer were $17. Me gusta!! read more
