At Xicote Cocina Mexicana, my wife and I tried the red pozole and birria pasta—two amazingly delicious dishes. Pozole was particularly exceptional: deeply flavored, balanced, and lots of pork. Having eaten pozole in numerous restaurants across the United States, Mexico, and beyond, I can say without hesitation that this was the finest version I’ve encountered. We will be back very soon to sample more dishes on the menu!

The food was super flavorful and well thought out. I got the Xicote Carne Asada made medium well and it has a home run. We got the fajitas too and they were juicy and full of flavor. Will definitely be back.

Food is outstanding – varied and creative. Drinks good or great depending on bartender. Staff is very friendly, but things can get a little slow when busy. My biggest complaint is the acoustics. Prices are not bad at all for Walnut Creek.

Always a killer experience at this place! My favorites on the menu is the carnitas, and the shrimp fajitas. They even have tofu fajitas if you’re vegan. The staff is always so attentive and friendly. A strong go-to for lunch or dinner!! 10/10

We were one of two diners in this quaint small diner. Upon entering we were casually greeted from afar and directed to sit anywhere.
We started with great drinks and sizzling chicharone with delicious dip. We said”yes” to chips which never arrived despite requests.
Then we ordered dinner, once the dinner menus were provided. We ordered the mole enchiladas and the mole negro oaxaqueno. The enchiladas were very pretty but very dry. We used the delicious mole sauce from the chicken mole dish to moisten the very dry enchiladas. That really helped. Their mole is wonderful.
Next we decided to try a dessert. We ordered their sweet potato casserole with marshmallows and creme with buneulos. It took 20 minutes to arrive. What arrived was a microwaved whole sweet potato cut in half. There was no casserole, there were no marshmallows. The halved sweet potato had some drops of sweetened condensed milk dripped on top, some sparse fruit, sprinkled with powdered sugar and some buneulos stabbed into the potato halves. Cost: $16.00. We discussed the issue with a server: we ordered a dessert sweet potato casserole with marshmallows, yet what we were served after a 20 minute wait was a microwaved sweet potato cut in half. The reply: “Oh, sorry”. We were given the bill which included the “Oh, sorry” uneaten sweet potato halves. We complained to another employee who just smiled and told us maybe it “”melted”. We then talked to the bar tender who took one look at the uneaten dessert and refunded the dessert on our bill.
Service: Poor. We had to go get our server for most of the service, although there were 5 employees standing around talking to each other.
Mole sauce: Delicious
Drinks: Wonderful
Dessert: Tragic

I’ve been here twice so far and each time have really enjoyed the food. The grilled salmon and the plantains are delicious, the horchata is great too. The pina colada is strong and the service has been pretty great. This will be one of my regular places.

Tried Xicote for the first time and walked away with mixed (but mostly positive) feelings. Let’s start with the stars: the wings were unexpectedly awesome—crispy, flavorful, and gone way too fast. Dessert also brought the heat: the flan was silky perfection, and the churros? Chef’s kiss.
Now for the one hiccup: the tacos looked the part but the meat was on the dry side, which left them feeling more style than substance. Hoping that was just an off-day. Ohh and the mussels were outstanding.
Overall, solid spot with standout flavors—I’ll definitely be back (but might swap the tacos for more wings and a double round of churros next time.
