    Mi Cocina at the Galleria is one of my favorite places in Dallas. I love grabbing a table overlooking the ice rink, enjoying some of the best people-watching in the city, and making a day of shopping at the Galleria. My go-to order is the Sunset Enchiladas with a mocktail margarita, and they never disappoint. The food is always fresh and flavorful, and the service is consistently friendly and attentive. Whether I'm meeting friends, taking a shopping break, or simply enjoying the atmosphere, Mi Cocina always delivers a great experience. The combination of delicious Tex-Mex, excellent service, and the unique view of the ice skaters makes this a place I return to again and again. Highly recommend!

    Chicken fajitas

    Very good Mexican restaurant in the mall. Good service and lots of seating. We got the Cocina platter to sample a bunch of their appetizers. My favorites were the chicken quesadillas and flautas. For my main, I got chicken fajitas. It came out hot and fresh with guacamole, pitas, salsa, rice and beans. We had a very good meal and we were able to converse very easily, it wasn't a loud environment at all. Great place to have dinner inside the mall.

    Best service received! The staff is very accommodating. Helped us pick a relaxing sofa side. Food was great. We had the Tacos Habana and Tacos Brisket. I personally liked Habana (chicken). We also had their Fajita which was exceptionally yummy. The server on duty was super cool, knowledgeable and friendly. He even gave us a bag of tortilla chips as we were marching out. My 1 year old boy had a great time there too- we ordered for him their regular Mexican rice; they were a bit salty for him but he was truly enjoying it lol. Definitely go again

    Amazing food! Mi Cocina is located on the first floor inside the Galleria Dallas, in front of the ice skating rink. I ordered the Tacos de Brisket ($18.25) and chocolate tres leches ($9.95). Got complementary chips and salsa. The brisket taco was super delicious. Just meat and cheese in tortilla. Came with rice and salad. Rice was super good as well. The chocolate cake was not so good. The bread was soggy as if it got defrosted and the water seeped into the cake. The texture was not firm. Would recommend if you want really good mexican food.

    I was totally impressed with this restaurant! Inside a mall can always be questionable but not this location. Amazing service, the food was incredible and real food. We had a huge party and was seated quickly and had the best service! Even the prices were reasonable. Even in the mall the atmosphere was great. I would not skip on Mi Cocina!

    Mi Cocina is a go-to spot for flavorful Tex-Mex dishes in a vibrant and lively setting. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is welcoming and energetic, making it a great choice for a fun night out with friends or family. The brisket tacos were the highlight of my meal--perfectly seasoned and tender, paired with their signature chips and salsa, which were fresh and addictive. The tamales were another standout, with just the right balance of spice and flavor. One thing to note is that the restaurant can get quite busy during peak hours, which means longer wait times for seating and service. The noise level can also be on the higher side, so it may not be the best option if you're looking for a quieter dining experience. Pros: * Delicious, well-prepared Tex-Mex dishes * Friendly and attentive staff * Lively and fun atmosphere Cons: * Can get busy with longer wait times * Higher noise levels during peak hours

    queso was yummy. the beef changa was lacking flavor and only had plain beef in it. the service was phenomenal our drinks were never empty. also was greeted right when walking in. the location is nice in the mall overlooking the skating rink.

    During girls shopping day we usually stop here for snacks and drinks. The food is standard MiCocina quality. Hanging out by the skating rink is a pretty cool feature. There is generally enough room for us and our bags without making it awkward. Our usual order to go with the chips and salsa is queso and flour tortillas. The bacon wrapped shrimp appetizer is another one of our favorites. I wouldn't go out of my way to come to this location but if you're shopping in the Galleria and want to have a Tex-Mex meal, come try it out.

    Finally made it over to The Mexican and boy, a time was had!…read more Service here is top notch. From the moment I stepped in the door I was treated like a celebrity! Complimentary champagne, and AMAZING service from our waitress. I've literally never had a server with such extensive knowledge of a restaurant's menu. Very impressive! We also had a amazing experience with the manager. We needed some accommodations for our table and he was so thoughtful. He even provided us with a complimentary cuatro leches cake slice! (which was HUGE btw). While the service was exponentially excellent, the food was...good. The menu was what I would describe as "elevated Mexican" with some other Latin-inspired steakhouse dishes (think filet mignon with some salsa on the side) Everything was good, but nothing really stood out for me. One more thing, lots of good people watching lol! Dallas ladies love a to dress up and I saw so many fabulous looks on my recent visit. Great place for a date night or dinner with your girls. Highly recommend! Beautiful space with fantastic service!

The restaurant itself is always clean and orderly. And the staff is always friendly and efficient. My favorite go-tos are the Queso Blanco and the Chicken Fajitas. The Queso is second to none. The Chicken Fajitas always have a nice wood grilled flavor to them that is sure to please you! A few times I have made it to dessert, but not very often. My favorite dessert herebis the churros. They are delicious in their own right, but they also give you different dipping sauces like chocolate, caramel, or even a vanilla cream. They are served hot and fresh!

    El Carlos Elegante was in fact elegante!…read more It was everything I wanted in a Michelin recommendation restaurant. I really wanted to try something different and fun, so we ended up getting the elegante experience for $99 per person. I was not disappointed at all with this experience and it offered a ton of great food options. I was so full at the end of this experience, however, every single food item I tried was great and kept me wanting more. To highlight a couple of the items given on that "secret" experience was the tamales, the wagyu steak and the green sauce that came with it, and the sponge cake at the end was a great finisher. I really did enjoy the entire experience of the restaurant and the food. The entire staff was on top of their game and made sure that we had a great time. For me this restaurant was a 9 out a 10. There's no doubt in my mind that I will be back and probably take people here too.
