    I came here for book club, and the service was fabulous! For a party of at least 20, we only had one server, and he handled it like a champ! They gave us the room in the back, and everything was perfect. The food came out fast, everything was hot and fresh, tickets came shortly after, and I like that you’re able to pay online; the whole experience was very efficient.

    Always on the hunt for great chips and salsa.. Mi Cocina did pretty good the chips are just right in crisp and crunch, salsa is flavorful and they give each guest their own bowl which I super appreciated!!! Enchiladas were a big hit, the crunchy beef taco held up and didn’t fall apart.. it was a beautiful evening and we sat outside on the patio…the Mambo Margarita was pretty good too…

    The students at Pershing had a blast celebrating the Green House winners, after a year of competition, showing the character of a Pershing Lion. They enjoyed of a delicious lunch from Mi Cocina. The students expressed their gratitude to Mi Cocina for sponsoring this event. Thank you Mr. Iban Rodriguez for supporting us throughout the year. 😊

    Most disgusting Mexican food I ever ate. Food has ZERO flavors. The sunset enchiladas have chili queso & it was horrible. My food was also very cold, so I couldnt tell if thats why the flavors werent coming thru or if the food just wasn't seasoned. But I regret wasting money at this place. The chips were good & crispy but again the salsa had no flavors. The rice is bland but the beans taste good. They got my friends order wrong but we let it slide since they were so busy. They don't know Mexican food. Chuys has more flavors than this place if you're looking for spices in your food.

    Love the mambo taxi. This location is relaxed but service was super slow. Food was great, the nachos are organized in a way that they are easy to share & each nacho actually has food on it. I’d probably not get the tamales again - they were dry and bland.

    My recent visit to Mi Cocina was a delightful culinary experience. The restaurant's warm and inviting ambiance set the perfect tone for an enjoyable meal. Mi Cocina's dedication to delivering authentic flavors and high-quality dishes was evident in every bite. The friendly service and the relaxed atmosphere added to the overall positive experience. Whether you're a fan of Mexican cuisine or simply seeking a satisfying meal, Mi Cocina is a must-visit. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to savor more of their delicious offerings!

    We went here for lunch, it was wonderful! There was no wait time, we got a booth without asking for one as well! The waitress was attentive, kept glasses full, and made sure we were taken care of at all times.

    I would go back for the jalapeño agave margarita, it was one of the best I’ve ever had. Queso was okay. Nachos were good. I’ll try again and order differently…

    I wish I remembered the waitresses name, but she was great. She was skinnier with red/brown hair in the bar area. Never let my salsa or chips run out. Very attentive. Awesome jalapeño margarita and lunch chicken fajitas. Great chips and salsa.

    The food is really good and fancy but the chip bowls are small and for four people one chip bowl at a time seemed to little. The staff did not have conversation with us and did not come very often to check on us. The atmosphere was okay but the tables are very close together and my own voice often got drowned out by the conversation at the table behind me. All in all, Mi Cocina is a wonderful place to eat, but this location wasn’t my favorite.

    Had an amazing time with my mom, we were sat right away as we were only a party of 2, Stephanie took care of us in the bar area and made sure we satisfied the whole night, with drink refills and any sides that we needed. Definitely recommend!

    I had the spinach enchiladas. They were great and they fixed it just like I ordered. They were quick and the waiter was really kind and professional. gave it a five star because everything went so well. And the price was great.

    Wow! This Mi Cocina is the BEST!! Joseph was our server and he was amazing. The food was freshly made and it was the best tex-mex food we’ve had. I recommend this Mi Cocina and their staff. Best service you’ll ever have. Also, great selection of drinks.

    Let me start first by saying, they have great food, but the location on Preston was not good AT ALL ! Our food came out cold and the enchiladas plate was hard and my meat on the nachos was tough. The location in Las Colinas was great!

    Some of the reviews of this place were disproportionately bad, things may not have been super fantastic tasting but they werent bad. I was happy i chose to ignore the bad reviews. We came at about 8:30pm on a Sunday. Seemed like a pretty good time things were clearing out after the place clearly got rocked with a dinner rush. We ordered the "Pauleys" the "Tacos Mi Teirro" and the "Pollo Moderna" im on the Keto diet so for an upcharge I was able to upgrade my meal to have extra veggies instead of the rice. I felt my food, Pollo Moderna, was well seasoned and tasted good. Chicken was still moist and not dried out which was a nice surprise. We did order a side of Queso, and i gotta say that is just not good. Aside from being cold it basically just tasted like melted velveeta with their salsa, which is almost void of any flavor other than tomato, added to it. I spooned some on my chicken and something in the shape of a square clump fell out, clearly they didnt even melt it all the way. I dont recommend the Pauley's unless you've got a somewhat picky eater who is sensitive to spice. Its basically just a tortilla with hamburger meat in it. The meat isnt really seasoned. The service was good but our server was seemed whooped. Nothing against her I think she just was coming down from the rush. I had one drink, my usual a Jim Beam and club soda. They didnt have Jim Beam and substituted Jack Daniels. The cost was 9.50. Somewhat ridiculous if you ask me. All in all we enjoyed our meal, would come back. But beware of anything on the menu that comes with that Queso on it. As you see in some other reviews, it isn't good.

    I just love the Mexican food here! I went to this place 3 times now and I never regretted going back all the time. I tasted 3 different kind of enchiladas and they all tasted delicious. In addition, the Queso is just to perfect with the chips. Reasonable price with Patio.
