Kotija Jr. Taco Shop (Del Mar): Revisit: Still good, but some kinks

Reordered takeout from Kotija Jr. Last time they were super vegetarian-friendly and delicious. Loved the pan-fried fish taco.

First on phone, they thought veg. burrito couldn't really be veg - that it had to come with lardy refried beans. But I insisted they had done it before, and the guy checked with the kitchen and said they were making the whole pintos.

Took it home....veg burrito was still delicious, and they did use the whole pintos.  But they sent us home with a side of non-veg refried beans instead of the whole pintos I asked for (oh well), and also the fish taco was totally different tonight - deep fried. Still tasty, but not as unique or yummy as last time, and definitely not worth being considered best fish taco in SD.

I called and they did say they would credit me on the beans...we'll see.  Meanwhile, it remains a mystery which is the correct recipe there for the fish tacos!

But we'll give them another try - the guac and veg burrito are still yummy.
