Try the new COTIJA on Main St. in AP - It's great! http://www.cotijalatinflavors.com/
Last night we ate at Cotija on Main St. in AP. This restaurant has been around for several years serving authentic Mexican dishes and incredible dollar tacos. However, it recently underwent a substantial makeover and has made a transformation to an elegant Latin dining establishment. With new decor, lighting and a revamped menu, the owner, Arturo Montoya has rebranded this hidden gem as "Cotija - Latin Flavors." As part of the upgrade, Cotija is going to have a variety of unique dishes from a number of Latin American locales, in addition to great Mexican cuisine. We started with fresh empanadas with Oaxaca cheese and zucchini flowers, and also an order of sopes pastor, which are like thick tortillas with a roasted pork and pineapple topping. For an entree we ordered marinated skirt steak with sauteed shrimp (ask for a side of homemade chimichurri sauce for the steak!) The special was roasted pork ribs with vegetables in a Mexican broth. Side dishes included rice, beans and sweet plantains. Even though we couldn't finish all of the entrees (that's lunch today), we still tried the homemade flan, which was great. All of the food was great and very reasonably priced...and Cotija is BYOB. We liked it so much that we told Arturo, the owner that we would let our neighbors know about it. I'll post the same to Nextdoor.com. ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
