    We decided to try out this restaurant for the first time and were so happy we did! Fresh & Flavorful are two words that come to mind when we tried our dinners. The server (maybe owner, not sure) came over and pulled up a chair to explain the menu in full. We were thankful since I have celiac and it helped us to know more about what to choose then and when we go back. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals and would order the same dishes again. My husband had a chicken dish and I had the steak tacos with corn tortillas and fresh guacamole. The atmosphere is casual and friendly with good service. It is also very clean.

    Mmm... I rarely write a review after the first visit but I am just so excited that La Cocina De Mary is now in town. First thing first, the food was amazing. Every dish had its own distinct flavor profile and every component complemented each other for an amazing dish. Plus, everything was fresh and cooked to perfection. Their menu has a few dishes we rarely see in the KC food scene. We were excited to have a Cemita and Arabe Tacos. Cemitas are a type of sandwich with crispy meat, stringy Oaxaca cheese, and deliciousness. The Arabe taco was a tortilla wrapped in juicy meat topped with adobo sauce that we will be back again for. Joseph ensured that we had a great dining experience. It was clear that he was passionate about serving high quality food and helping the customers find a dish they love. I highly recommend La Cocina de Mary.

    Went here with my parents last night. Food was great, and the chef was EXTREMELY friendly. He came out and explained the menu and at another point brought us fresh drinks for us to try (rice water and hibiscus). He's extremely excited and passionate about the place. Food was great. I would take off half a star because the music was distractingly loud and when I asked him to turn it down, he either forgot or barely adjusted the volume, and there were times that the wait got kind of long once more tables arrived, because he was so friendly that he was giving every table the undivided attention. It's such wonderful service but when you aren't getting the attention, the wait can get long. I definitely recommend and really this should be 4.5 stars due to the volume and some wait but I don't want to take away from their stellar ratings because they were extremely friendly with great food. He did give us free dessert since it was our first time.

    Margaritas were great and loved the food. Small personable place. The chef explained the menu and was very accommodating. Will be back. .

    The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the setting was culturally fitting, clean, and welcoming. The beef soup is a must!

    Our appetizers were absolutely delicious- the canoa made of plantains and some type of crema that…read moretastes like arroz y leche was soo warm and filling! Perfect for before and after the meal. We also loved the yuca and plantains. I was so excited to eat my pupusas that I forgot to take a picture, but the chicken and cheese was phenomenal as was the cheese and loroco. Our server was the sweetest and took great care of us, we will be back soon!! There are 6 to 7 tables in the place, so cannot fit too large of a group, but definitely was still comfortable! It is also located on a section of Parallel Parkway that is split with a gas station in the middle, so do take care when pulling out into traffic that you are going the right way!

    Had a great lunch. I got a spinach & cheese pupusa and a pork, cheese & loroco pupusa. I also tried…read morethe Salvadoran horchata and really liked it. This is the kind of place the locals visit. The food was hot, freshly made and tasty. I loved that I got to try new things. The Loroco bloom was different. It was very unique and hard to describe, but I'd have it again. Also hard to identify is the unique flavor in the horchata drink, which I really liked too. I want to come back and try every drink. And of course eat more pupusas with curtido, because that slaw is wonderful. My hubby really enjoyed the sauce.
