    The Burrito Bowl al pastor (marinated pork) is PHENOMENAL!
    Lena C.

    I was actually looking for a certain fast-food fresh-Mex place named after smoked jalapeños to order a burrito bowl from for my Friday work-from-home treat, but realized I should be prioritizing small businesses over chains with predictable food. It was the right call. 30 seconds after ordering through Yelp, El Tesoro called me to confirm which kind of pork I wanted on my burrito bowl. When they said they could do it al pastor, I jumped on it. The delivery driver arrived about half an hour later and I could smell the deliciousness through the bag. Everything was delicious. The pork was super flavorful and cut into manageable sized pieces (no knife required!) and the portion size was perfect. The red and green salsa and little bag of fresh tortilla chips was a really nice touch, too. I can't wait to visit this place and dine in sometime!

    Taqueria Tesoro was one of the best tacos i've had in all of florida, they were absolutely delicious. The service was quick & our waitress was so kind. Also, the ambiance was incredible; such good music!

    This was the burrito Supreme.   steak,  chicken & beef. loaded with fresh ingredients & the meat was loaded with flavor,  so tender.

    Taqueria Tesoro, 710 W, King St. Unit 115, Cocoa, FL 32922 5 Stars Glancing at my velocipede as I headed to the Big Boy Mobile, I thought, "Nah, not today." I wasn't going that far, but it was too far for me to ride comfortably. Where was I headed, you ask? My destination today was a Mexican joint by the name of Taqueria Tesoro. I must say that regardless of where you stand on immigration (legal or otherwise), you have to respect the food being brought into Florida from south of the border. As we have seen in big cities such as Chicago and Los Angeles, immigrants from Mexico and other Latin American countries are supplanting the native minority group. An enclave of fresh Hispanic immigrants has popped up in Cocoa and our stomachs are the better for it. Taqueria Tesoro has opened to serve the food needs of this burgeoning group of new Floridians (welcome, one and all!). Santiago is the manager and our server today. I ordered the Ceviche, the Burrito Supreme, and the Carne Asada, sat back, snapped pictures of their lovely ornamentation, and awaited my grub. I would be remiss if I didn't start with the complimentary chips and salsa. The chips were warmed and the salsa was fresh. What more needs to be said? As I was scarfing down the chips and salsa, my order appeared. Taking a few snapshots of the feast before me, I eagerly began to consume. Originating in Peru, Ceviche quickly spread throughout coastal Latin America. Shrimp, octopus, squid, tuna, and mackerel are popular in Mexican ceviche. The marinade usually consists of salt, lime, onion, chili peppers, avocado and cilantro. This ceviche was spot on. Everything was sea-fresh and the marinade was just tart enough to satisfy the most discerning palate. Sadly, I knew I couldn't finish it as I had more food to review. Oh, woe is me. The Burrito Supreme was of the wet variety. This means it was slathered in sauce. I was so surprised after my first bite that I just had to take another and peel it apart. Yep! That is hand-cut chicken breast in my burrito! If they went this far to ensure deliciousness, do I even need to get into the freshness of the tomato, lettuce, avocado and pico de gallo? The Carne Asada was on par with the Ceviche and the aforementioned Burrito Supreme. The meat was perfectly cooked, marinated in a tasty concoction of lime juice, salt and Mexican seasonings. I am unsure of the meat cut, but it was tender and extremely satisfying on the palate. The sides of refried beans and Mexican rice were also quite delicious. I assume they were made in the back and not from an industrial-sized can, as they tasted exceptionally fresh. The Big Boy says, "Save a buck and skip your next vacation to Mexico. You can eat here and get the real deal."

Served with, get this, nice crispy waffle fries! Ate one burrito, all the fries and took home the second one, younger days I would have scarfed both! Two Margaritas were enjoyed, my other family members really liked their meals as well. Definitely great food, talented bartender, attentive server and overall, well worth the visit to Cocoa from Merritt Island. Will be back!

    I only gave this restaurant 4 stars because our server, Jonathan, was respectful, attentive, and…read moreprovided great service throughout our meal. The restaurant itself looked the part and so did the food. ..The atmosphere and presentation of the food were exactly what you'd expect from an authentic Mexican restaurant....Unfortunately, the flavor just wasn't there. We ordered the ceviche..it was lazily slapped together..let's say it's "rustic" style it had about 1oz of tomatoes and a 1/4 of red onion with 3 colossal shrimp cut into chunks in it and a half of avocado for $13. We ordered two kids' enchiladas with rice and beans, a kids' quesadilla, an order of flautas, and a horchata. While everything looked great, almost every dish lacked seasoning and depth of flavor. Ironically, the most flavorful thing we had was the salsa but it came in such a tiny bowl that it was gone after literally four chips. It was about the size of just over a ketchup cup, which wasn't nearly enough for the basket of chips. The horchata was also disappointing. It tasted more like watered-down milk than the rich, cinnamon-flavored drink i was expecting. If you're looking for authentic, bold hispanic flavors, this may leave you disappointed. However, if you're looking for a more diluted, americanized mexican restaurant, this may be exactly what you're looking for. Jonathan's excellent service is the reason this review received 4 stars instead of fewer.

    We tried La Catrina in Cocoa Beach and unfortunately it was pretty disappointing. The portion sizes…read morewere definitely massive, but the flavor was really lacking. Rahul ordered the California burrito and I ordered La Comadre, which came with 1 bean burrito, 1 enchilada, 1 veggie quesadilla, and veggies/rice on the side. The amount of food was a lot, but the execution just wasn't there. The California burrito was open on both sides, so it was basically impossible to pick up and eat like an actual burrito. My enchilada and bean burrito came out room temperature, and the shredded cheese on the enchilada was completely unmelted. The enchilada sauce was probably the biggest miss for me, it tasted really unfresh and mostly just like canned tomatoes. Service also wasn't great. They do have a nice patio area, which was one of the reasons we wanted to try it, but our server never really checked on us. We had to go inside to ask for my food to be rewarmed and then go inside again to ask for the check. Overall, the portions are huge and the patio is cute, but I wouldn't return based on the food or service.
