The food is probably best in town. Not too spicy at all but if you want you can ask for it. If you like spicy I definitely recommend going that route. Small dining area so better to call and make reservations. Staff is attentive and friendly but they can get extremely busy sometimes and it takes a bit of effort to get their attention. But it's worth your wait. I'd definitely return

This place was great - Went a few years back and found this picture.I still think about the Taquitos + the huge selection of Jarritos. There was such a cozy and warm atmosphere, paired with the delicious food.A great stop if you are staying near the Adirondacks/Lake George Area!

The carne asada was pretty bland and fatty, salsas are decent but not spicy, a bit pricier than other options. Cramped dining area. It wasn't good, I don't get the hype. There is better across town.
No alcoholic beverages is the only downfall. Food was fabulous, though, and priced very well!!! GREAT PLACE!!

I can't say enough of La Cosina Mexicana restaurant. The food is authentic mexican, good portions and lovely warm service from a hard working mother & children running this gem. They are very accommodating and welcoming. The food is delicious. So glad we have a mexican place to eat close by. This is not a texmexican place. This is the real deal.Parking: Plenty of parking spots on premises.Kid-friendliness: The place is very welcoming to family with kids.
It was a very unpleasant experience for my family in this small restaurant. The food was delicious. However, they charged more than $100, but the actual price was nearly $30. The owner and staff didn't say "sorry" before I asked why it happened. I went through as many as three employees during lunchtime. In addition, the waiters who served the food at our table didn't show up until the end. The receipt was not printed and the letter was handwritten, so I couldn't understand. Overall, it was unprofessional and I suspect they will look down on my family because I'm a foreigner on a trip. If it was meant to be, this restaurant should be ashamed. If you're a foreigner on a trip, I don't recommend it.

Today I was disappointed, usually it's good my 3rd time ordering from here.. I ordered paisanos tacos, the meat looked boil n no seasoning at all not even salt on the meat! Tortillas where more like microwave cooked. I had to put the meat over a skilled with seasonings when I got home n fry tortillas on a pan.. I should've taken before and after.
