The food was good, and service was attentive. Refills on drinks. Noticed a very cool bar in the back which would be amazing for a small party.

I love Mi Cocina’s food but the restaurant seems too dark to me. I wish they could lighten it up a bit. We had a great experience with Denise and will be back.

We enjoyed our dining experience. Cocktails were great! Service wasn’t the best but it wouldn’t keep us from going back.

Margaritas were very good but the grouper fish tacos were disappointing… one small piece of fish and it wasn’t very fresh. My companion had the redfish tacos and equally disappointing.

I recently visited Mi Cocina and had an incredible experience. The food was absolutely amazing—flavorful and authentic, with just the right balance of spice. The prices were also very reasonable, offering great value for the quality and portion sizes. The atmosphere was soothing and welcoming, making it the perfect spot for a relaxed meal. I highly recommend Mi Cocina for anyone craving delicious Mexican cuisine in a comfortable setting!
