You have a huge menu. Give people enough time to go through it. Specially when it’s their first time. We were approached by our waiter thrice in less than 10mins to take our order. The lady at the front was very cold and unwelcoming. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

Their food is cheap and unauthentic. Much better options out there. People that eat here do not know what good Mexican food is.

Short version:Beautiful place, awkward start, very good food.Long Version:This visit was quite interesting. On Easter Sunday, just after noon, I expected this place to be packed. However, we were seated immediately and there were very few occupied tables. The building is very nicely done on the outside, and there is plenty of parking. Inside, it has a very elegant feel with stone and dark wood throuout and modern lighting fixtures. There is a beautiful bar set to the side with its own seating and even a semi-private area beyond it. I noticed a completely private room to the left of the entry which looks inviting for private lunch/dinner meetings. They have effectively used a lot of glass windows to create an uncongested feel.The thing that really struck me as a first impresssion is how we were seated and what happened next. Nothing. The entire restaurant is set up with completely blank tables, which creates a very uneasy feeling that we were there before they were open or ready for us. Not even a center piece or even salt and pepper. The Hostess placed a menus for the two of us and we just sat. It was very quiet and they did have music playing softly, but there was no real buzz or excitement. So, for 5 minutes we just sat. A lady did stop by and place a basket of chips and a couple small salsas and did say a polite 'hello'. Then, we continued to sit, without contact or even a napkin for 10 minutes. I only mention this because it was really uncomfotable. We saw a busser pass through and two waiters who pushed a few tables together for a 10 top family that was coming and ran food to the bar table. Still, just walking by and not even looking at us. Just odd.Finally, a waiter stopped and asked if we needed something to drink. He did not introduce himself which makes an odd situation even more odd. Yes, chips & salsa with no napkins, etc was awkward and making us thirsty. We ordered the queso with beef and sodas.Here is where it gets better. When he very quickly brought the queso he provided a utensil roll. At that time he asked about ordering. I asked for recommendations and he very estutely inquired about what I was looking for. He provided a primary and secondary recommdation. I asked about another item in comparison and he stuck with his primary as a choice, so that's what I ordered. Well done.The menu is extensive and diverse. Quite a few options.The food came out in a timely manner and both items we ordered were quite good and pleasantly suprising on portion size. Both of us could only eat about half. We had the Cocina Changa and the Pollo Moderno. We very much enjoyed the presentation and flavor or the food. The Moderno lets you create your own rolls with the pico/guac/ and the sauteed veggies or onion, mushroom and cabbage make for a fun and engaging experience and crafted to your own taste. The rice with the Moderno was delicious, too. The Changas (combo beef and chicken as our choice) were quite good and quite large. The chicken edged out the beef, I believe but both are quite good.When we werew done, the waiter brought a tray with to go containers so we didn't have to ask. Then, he took our items, packaged them for us in very nice folding boxes, added a bag of fresh chips and salsa container, and placed in a very nice to-go bag (impressive and classy).As a side note, the bathrooms were also very modern, well kept, and clean.The buzz only picked up slightly while we were there, but still remained very quiet.So even though I made some interesting observations because of the slightly odd experience, I will definetely return and recommend to others.Wheelchair accessibility: Accessable

It was busy, as expected, but got seated pretty quickly. Food was delicious. I received the wrong rice, but the waiter took care of it right away.
I love Mi Cocina. This is the first time at this location. As always service and food was exceptional. The location serves non-alcoholic Corona! Great to have with meal and to hang out with friends when not enjoying a mambo taxi.

Dylan C. was our server and he was one of the best we have ever had. He was extremely helpful, our drinks were always filled, and he had exceptional manners. We will be back because of him and the excellent food.
This is our favorite neighborhood hang for Tex-mex and fun. Usually we are in the bar area if Cameron is working. There is no way you can’t like him!Tonight we got a table and sat in Dylan’s section. He was great and we never needed anything because he was two steps ahead of us!

If I could give a zero i would. Sunset fajitas served with room temperature chicken almost no queso and what was there looked like it was mixed with water. No seasoning whatsoever. Plate felt like it had come out of a fridge. Left the restaurant almost throwing up.

Can’t get enough of the authentic Chips and Salsa. These are real chips and fresh salsa. In addition to the excellent regular red salsa, you can opt for spicy Mocajete or get Serrano Limon to mix into the red salsa. There is a wide variety of good Mexican Food and the drinks are excellent! Mambo Limo and La llorona are my favorites. Really like the grilled Chilli Relleno and the premium steak fajitas. Several outstanding items. Prices are reasonable.

We love this Mi Cocina! It feels like a neighborhood gathering place that we can count on for great food, awesome service, and a personal touch. We especially love sitting in the bar to catch a game or meet up with friends. When you go, ask for Rosa! She is AMAZING! She anticipates our needs and knows what we like. She’s the BEST!!Kid-friendliness: If you sit outside, there’s a great grassy, gated area where kids can run and play. Perfect for families!
Great food and awesome staff!
