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! read more

Always love Mi Cocina! It's a staple for me. They have the best salsa maybe anywhere ever. The food is always delicious and fresh. The fajitas are great. The enchiladas are great. The quesadillas are great. Love the tortilla soup. They have a chili relleno that's not on the menu that is absolutely delicious. Never had anything here I didn't like. The guacamole is not over or under seasoned. It's perfect! Service is always great and friendly. It's a lovely, casual environment with reasonably priced super delicious food. read more

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 read more

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. read more

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! read more

For being in a mall, it wasn't bad. Didn't have high expectations (really since it's a mall) and it wasn't busy, but overall was pretty good. read more

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 read more

Disappointed after ordering the fajita platter the other night. Barely came out warm and serving size was meh. Disappointed too after seeing it had more than four stars for prior ratings. Oh well. Server was at least nice. read more

LOVE the CHILE CON QUESO and the POBLANO CHICKEN ENCHILADAS! If I wasn't eating alone, I'd totally try some other dishes! The server was super sweet and attentive. Can't wait to go back when I'm in town. ENJOY! PS: This location is in the Galleria shopping mall, on the same floor as the ice skating rink. read more

Several locations convenient to me. Preston, Rockwall, and Dallas. Upscale Mexican, but not too upscale. Family friendly. Good Enchiladas. Guacamole. Appetizers Good choice if looking for a great meal. read more

Twenty plus years ago, I had an office in one of the Galleria towers and I would go down to the ice rink level at lunch and eat at a place called Mi Cocina ("My Kitchen"). My favorite dish there was something I still remember to this day. It's called Mama's Chicken con Hongos. So here I am almost two dozen years later in the Galleria and what do I see by the ice rink but Mi Cocina, right where I'd left it when I moved away. The decor was just what I'd remembered. And what does it still have on the menu? (Aside from killer Margaritas?) You guessed it! Mamas Chicken con Hongos :-) And it tasted every bit as good as I'd remembered. Hongos means mushrooms. This is a perfectly seasoned, juicy chicken breast, thinly sliced atop a huge bed of sauteed mushrooms, onions and poblano peppers. So tastey! It comes out piping hot on an iron skillet, like fajitas, and it's served with Spanish rice and tortillas. It's delicious, very filling and healthy, I love it! Our server was attentive. The jalapeño-agave margaritas (in the rocks) were perfect. And we enjoyed the chips, salsa and guacamole, too. It was a very nice dinner in addition to being an enjoyable, nastolgic trip dowm memory lane. I don't live in the D/FW area any more. But something tells me I won't take so long next time to find my way back here. It was a great memory, perfectly relived. That you, Mi Cocina! read more

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. read more

Went here while on business in Dallas, Texas for a group dinner (about 40 of us). Interesting spot on the bottom of the Galleria. Chosen more for the ability to seat 40 people than the food, but decent place. Overall, pretty average Mexican with a few highlights. Not following proper Yelp review etiquette, I only got one picture ... of my meal, of course. Too bad, since some of the other items were much prettier. Live and learn. We started off with a variety of appetizers. The guacamole was very nicely done. I am assuming fresh in the shop, as it is nice and chunky and very fresh. I was not as fond of the queso, but I am not a huge fan of Tex-Mex, especially when there are Authentic-Mex options. This is likely blasphemy to Texans, so I will leave it at that. Could not eat the ceviche, as it was shrimp, but it was finished off quickly. My meal was the Ribeye al Carbon. A bit overcooked, but still tender, so not a huge issue (we also had a HUGE group, so the fact they could get this much food out that quickly is a huge bonus for the restaurant). The service was great. Always on top of things and making sure drinks were refilled. Not sure if that is the norm, as big parties spending $3 to $4 thousand often get a lot of attention, especially when alcohol is allowed in the mix. I am going to assume they are always this good, however, as I have not other experience. This is definitely a highlight. Would I go back? If I lived in this area, I would definitely consider it after trying other places. If I had kids that wanted to go ice skating (this is right next to the rink), I would be even more likely. Overall, a good experience, although more average. read more

Honestly, I don't understand how this place gets such high reviews unless it's just the location. I ordered the 2 cheese enchilada lunch special; couldn't even eat the enchiladas. The cheese was chunky and not melted thoroughly. The beans and rice were ok. My skinny margarita was not good. My server was friendly but seemed rushed. I would not return. read more

Pretty good food and good bathrooms usually! Slightly more pricey but you could tell that they put the money to good use! They give a ton for the sangria so if you want a lighter drink, don't get that. read more

Jamies was excellent! He was spot on with his recommendations and I loved my meal. He was very quick to refill our drinks and attentive!

The service was great! Thank you Jaimes for the hospitality we had a great experience!

This is only for the uptown location (McKinney) The food is great, it is miserable in there though because the air conditioning is out and has been for THREE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had to leave the other day, popped back in today and could not believe it is still out. I feel badly for the people that work there. We like to sit at the bar as Daniel C is great and always takes good care of us. I can't believe a company would treat it's workers like that. read more

Alan was great food great Everything is awesome Gooood ambience and everything is awesome read more

I hardly leave reviews however I visited this location a few days ago and the service was excellent, the food was good as always but I kept having to swat away flies. On top of that the hostess sat us at a dirty table which he should've been able to see it was dirty. We mentioned it to him and nothing was done about it we ended up having to clean it ourselves. read more

Very good food and drinks. Great staff. Very attentive and friendly, would definitely return.

Soooooo a friend and I came in for drinks to my usual server Yaire. I specifically asked the host (I believe her name was Norma) to sit us in her section and she literally ignored my request. She was very dismissive and rude. Luckily Yaire was able to reseat us and we eventually enjoyed our visit because as usual her service is wonderful read more

Jaimes was great! Quick and delicious food and service. Perfect for a quick lunch in between meetings!
