I'm from Southern California so I know good Mexican food. This place is phenomenal! I had the grande burrito, the flavor was amazing. My husband got street tacos, the Al Pastor was authentic, great flavor. The drinks were all very good as well. The prices for the quality are also great, a place like this in So Cal would be $5-15 more expensive per plate. If this was back home, it would be a frequent spot for us! 10/10! read more

Went here for date night. Knew we were most likely in for a long wait considering we went during dinner time on a Friday night, but it took less time to get us seated than we had originally been told. The decor and style of the restaurant was neat and all the staff we interacted with were friendly and attentive. Food was delicious and service was great. We ordered the loaded steak fajitas and the lamb shank. No disappointment there whatsoever. A few things that could have made this a 5 star experience. Quieter music. The restaurant was packed and busy, and the fairly loud music compounded the noise to a point where conversations weren't super easy. It wasn't terrible but definitely could have improved the meal if we could have heard each other more easily. Might have been quieter on the patio but between the heat and the smoke we didn't try that option this time around. Indication of GF options on the menu. My husband can't do wheat and there were zero indications on the menu of whether or not items were gluten free or could be done gluten free. He was able to get corn tortillas with his fajitas because he asked, and maybe that is just the norm at Mexican restaurants, but it would definitely have made the decision making process easier if it had been marked on the menu. On theme mocktails - the cocktails looked good and there were sodas etc, but it would have been nice to have some Mexican themed mocktails to enjoy with our meal. None of these things are deal breakers and we absolutely recommend this restaurant and will be back, but just wanted to make the suggestions. read more

The food was very good along with the service. It has a great vibe. Simple but trendy.

Went on a Friday night but luckily we got there early. Was 25-30 min wait. Got sat and the chips and salsa/dip rolled out. They put down a 'crema' mixture along with the normal salsa, was awesome. Wife had a chimichangas (CHX) and I had Carnitas, it was fall off the fork tender. A lot of Margaritas went by, they were HUGE! Service was good even though it was slammed. Servers were friendly and attentive. We will definitely go back! You'd never know it used to be a Chili's read more

Very nice ambiance and great service. The food, however, was good but not great. Tried the guacamole and chimichanga with shredded beef. Both looked delicious but lacked seasoning. I just didn't get that true Mexican taste and flavor. The food is more Americanized. That might explain why so many of the diners I saw today at lunch were senior citizens who may not like spicy food. I don't know. As I said, great service and a nice feel to the restaurant plus I'm sure some higher ratings rave about the bar. But it was lunch and a long drive ahead of me so a bottle of Mexican Coke was my drink of choice. read more

Coyol - Lunch. Chimichanga, guacamole and a bottle of Coke! - Mexican Near Me - Coeur d'Alene, Idaho

Atmosphere was nice and classy. Drinks were very good! Service was okay. The servers order on hand held kiosks so it isn't a very personable vibe. Good was decent. Portions aren't huge like some Mexican restaurants but the chips and salsa are delicious. The chips also came with another dipping sauce that was interesting. Reminded me a little of Ranch but with some spice. Overall good experience and nice atmosphere. read more

Service was slow Restaurant was clean and light Good tasted good BUT... I ended up with 8 hours of diarrhea. Either the lettuce or food prep employees didn't wash their hands after using the restroom. That was the ONLY change in my normal diet routine. read more

Hostess was amazing. We needed an alcohol wipe to sanitize skin for a diabetic injection for one of our party. She hunted wipes down for us. Margaritas were good except server couldn't describe the ingredients or the tequilas in the recipes. A bit of training would solve this. Overall the food was pretty bland. Guacamole texture was spot on, but needed some garlic salt and more jalapeños. We had a good mix of menu items. Shrimp tacos were the exception to bland. They were very tasty. Carnitas texture was perfect, but lacked flavor. Chicken Enchiladas Suisas were okay. Pork belly also mediocre. I know ties restaurant is new, but definitely needs some authenticity in the menu. Portions were good size and presentation was fair. Ambiance of store is nice. Wood plank tables with real wood chairs. Overall it was a bit disappointing, but again it's a new restaurant. read more

Before I even get into anything: the habanero salsa is key to the meal's completion. I hope I was charged extra for the amount I consumed. It was worth it. My innards will burn for 48hrs. We arrived 530p, escaping the 96 degree beating sun into a packed reception area. 'It will be about 15 minutes, maybe less, for a table unless you want to sit outside?' No inside please we desire the AC, I replied. We took a seat across from an obese family looking the epitome of Cali to Idaho within the month transplant: each member (apart from the teenage child) of this absolute UNIT was clad in some variation of Red/White/Blue/Punisher gear. I attempted to make eye contact with the boss hog. He stared off unflinchingly to the brightly lit bar area; probably thinking about how nice it would be to abandon his family and go back into bar. I was correct, I thought, as he did stand and asked the hostess if he could wait in the bar area. "No sir, that's also seating only" begrudgingly, he sat back down next to his family. The hostess was spot on and 10 minutes later we were sat in a tastefully designed mostly beige and wood booth. Only minutes after sitting the sweet, but large, blue rimmed glass chalices housing the margs arrived. The Serrapĩna is not spicy enough, my wife says; North Idaho spicy I think, practically lava with a quick punch of serrano at the front. We order the Oaxaca Bowl (for health) and deluxe fajitas (for the sizzle). I was shocked how quickly the food arrived. 6 minutes maybe less?!? I was, sadly, dismayed that the sizzle did not flood the table in smoke. Food was good. No complaints, crowd pleasers all around. VERY LARGE portions. I gauge a Tex-Mex resturant by the quality of their chile relleno and Coyol preformed, with the best chile relleno in CDA. Whitney, our server, was great. Positive and a go-getter. I loved the part where she demonstrated the size of an order of xangos while clearing our plates. She had to set the plates down to motion with two hands. Coyol is a great spot for a large group looking to fill themselves and have some libations. Very clean well managed with a crowd. Will need to return and try more options. read more

Coyol - 2 Mahi Mahi and 1 Shrimp Taco - Mexican Near Me - Coeur d'Alene, Idaho

I'll consider this a partial review because I'd already had dinner so I only got to try the cucumber jalapeño margarita and the chile relleno + a few bites of others dishes. BUT from what I had it was full of flavor and honestly comparable in price to most sit down Mexican food places in town. As an add on bonus, you get the gorgeous and clean interior with great service. It reminds me of a restaurant you'd eat at on the coast of Mexico, that beachy natural interior with modern lines. Will be back for more! read more

What can I say about Coyol. CDA is lucky to have this authentic Mexican restaurant gem. Upon entering I was greeted and seated right away. The aromas in the restaurant and the plates coming out the kitchen were all amazing. I had the parrillada for one but it was enough for at least two people. They definitely weren't shy with the portions. It was delicious but under seasoned for my liking. I also had the pork belly bites and OMG this app definitely hit the spot. Coyol will be a top mexican restaurant in CDA while the wait times are short. I will definitely be coming back to try the rest of the menu. read more

Dined here about a week ago with a friend, we both truly enjoyed it! Drinks were great and food was delicious. I had the Carnitas plate (only suggestion is the server should have asked if I wanted flour or corn ), my friend had the Birrea tacos. Both enjoyable. Atmosphere is brilliant, clean, fresh & welcoming. Server was sweet and friendly. read more

Cotol is a welcome addition to the Mexican flare of CDA! First, they make fresh guacamole, right there in front of your eyes! And it is awesome. Goes well with the corn chips and your meal. The salsa that comes with the tortilla. Hips is amazing. Asked for seconds on that. We ordered the Sea Food Fajitas for Two and my son had steak tacos. The fajitas tasted good, but the sea food was not plentiful. When we have ordered steak or chicken fajitas, from other places, the steak or chicken was prevalent. But here, we had to look for the sea food. However, it did manage to taste good, just wish the sea food showed up more. Their tortillas must be home made, forgot to ask, as they tasted fresh and delicious, both the corn and flour tortillas were good. My son's horchata was great, he said the best he's had, and my dirty horchata was excellent. We had a very personal server, friendly and helpful. I guess they specialize in tequila, since it's in the name on the building, but I didn't see a tequila menu. I didn't ask for one as I was mostly curious about it. We'll be back for sure. read more

I recently had the pleasure of dining at the new Mexican restaurant in Coeur d'Alene, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! We sat at the bar and the bar tender was amazing! They have only been open a week and have it dialed in!! The service was impeccable; the staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about the food they serve. They guided us through the menu, offering wonderful recommendations based on our preferences. The tacos were authentic, with perfectly seasoned meat and fresh toppings. The enchiladas were creamy and delicious, and the guacamole was made fresh right at our table--definitely a highlight! Overall, this restaurant is a must-visit for anyone in the area. The combination of excellent service, delightful ambience, and mouthwatering food makes it a gem in Coeur d'Alene. I can't wait to return and try more of their menu! read more

Coyol - Our table was full of good things! Chicken fajitas with rice and beans, guacamole and a carnitas street taco plate - Mexican Near Me - Coeur d'Alene, Idaho

Amazing Service! We had little to no wait time both times we've been there! Food was so fresh and phenomenal! I loved the mucho nachos appetizer! I had the Tradicion Coyol and the asador carne asada. The traditional Coyol didn't really have a sauce which I was thinking it would, it's diced poblanos and cheese which was still full of flavor and great! The asador carne asada was great but doesn't come cut up which would be easier to eat but all still very delicious and great fresh flavors! The service was very attentive and fantastic! Food came out very quickly which is great when you have a starving husband and little mouths to feed!! read more

Excellent Mexican food! Service was spot on. They have corn tortillas for GF but can't guarantee (as most restaurants) no cross contamination. Margaritas are awesome!! Atmosphere is comfortable modern and clean! Cold air!! lol. Outside dining too!! read more

Went here with friends for first time. Reviews a bit on the high side for what we experienced. However very decent. The chips were very good and white salsa very interesting and tasted good. The red salsa not enough spice IMO. We were told the guacamole appetizer was fantastic but found it average. I had the steak fajitas . Large potion of meat but yet again not the most flavorful. Also needed to be served hotter. Sizzling platter is real way to go.The rice and beans meh. My wife had a shredded beef taco and chili rellano. Taco average and chile rellano was excellent. The winner in the group was the ribeye tacos. Very tasty and looked amazing. As far as drinks all very good. Had a glass of wine , Modelo draft, jack Daniel's and water over and the outstanding thing was the margarita. My wife disappeared they don't serve margaritas blended. I consider myself as an honest reviewer dining frequently at Mexican cuisine. This atmosphere and design is very nice but a little less volume on the background music would be better. I know the restaurant is new and please take this as positive criticism. I rate it at 3 1/2 but give it a four as server was great and very attetive. read more

Much needed Mexican food spot in Coeur d'Alene. Good food, great atmosphere and friendly service.

The restaurant is absolutely beautiful and so well done. The staff are all super friendly, the atmosphere is just perfect! I had the taco salad and it was just ok. There wasn't much flavor and I didn't love the shredded lettuce and I missed cheese, onion and guacamole. The salsa wasn't spicy and I miss that when I eat Mexican food . I will try again but I'll pass on the taco salad. read more

Coyol - Watermelon margaritas - Mexican Near Me - Coeur d'Alene, Idaho

Our group of nine had an absolutely amazing experience at Coyol in Coeur d'Alene. They handled our large party with ease -- fast seating, excellent service, and some of the best Mexican food we've had in a long time. We were still talking about the meal the next day and have already decided that we'll be returning on our next visit. I asked our waitress for a recommendation on the chimichanga, and she suggested the al pastor. It was incredible -- perfectly seasoned, flavorful, and something I would absolutely order again. Everyone at our table loved their meals, and the grown‑up drink menu was a hit too. Several of us tried different cocktails, and every single one was fun, delicious, and well‑made. Coyol delivered great food, great drinks, and truly great service. Highly recommended. read more

Typical Americanized Mexican food; clean environment; good service; food was just so so for Mexican food.

I ordered a lunch size taco salad with chicken and I wasn't impressed...It was small and only had chicken a little cheese and lettuces, no beans, no flavor. The service was ok, however the young man didn't speak very good english so that made it a little hard to communicate. The ambiance was very nice and I might give it another try and have something else, but I'll skip the taco salad. read more
