    It's a Mi Cocina type of an evening.
    Chuck M.

    My wife and I needed our Mi Cocina "chips and salsa fix," so we headed there to dine. We both love their spicy salsa and chips. They use a thicker tortilla for their chips. They don't break so easy. They also have an awesome crunch to them. With the salsa, it's a perfect pairing! Yummy. It was also a very comfortable Texas evening. We decided to sit on the patio and watch the birds salvage the dropped chips they can fly off with. Alice, our server, introduced herself with a big smile and welcomed us to Mi Cocina. She took our drink orders, two unsweetened iced teas, and asked if we had any questions about the menu. We told her no, we were regulars. While Alice was still at our table, we went ahead and ordered. Today, we'd be sharing an order of chicken fajitas with all the fixin's. Fajitas sounded really good. After a short wait, Alice was back with our sizzling fajitas. When I saw the platter, I knew I'd enjoy them; there were lots and lots of caramelized onions. The fajitas were really good. We wished the chicken had more time in the marinade. There was a good grilled flavor, but not much of a marinated flavor. Overall, the chicken fajitas were really good. Alice never let us lack for anything we needed. Thank you, Alice and Mi Cocina, for a wonderful dining experience.

    Easy Friday happy hour or for a familiar dinner spot. Pretty good, always consistent and the drinks are on point. Service is good, they are consistent and always friendly and fast. Ambiance is fun, lively. Bee. Coming here 20 years. Its a staple. The Margaritas can put you on your butt. For a good time. Get ya girl a mambo taxi. Lol

    What the kitchen served me Latin stir fry vegetables. I did not take one but off of this plate...is the way it was sat down in front of me.

    Service was impeccable! Thank you to our hard working server! But the kitchen was unreasonably slow getting food out. And when it did come out, it looked like I got someone's leftovers. I ordered the Latin stir fry vegetables and the papas bravas. I have ordered this before and both were great. But this time it was beyond awful. I can't believe a kitchen would send these two dishes out to be served to a customer. I asked the server to take them off my ticket which he graciously did with no hesitation. No one from the kitchen came out to apologize and as I was leaving the manager looked at both my pictures kind of shrugged his shoulders and mumbled maybe an apology. Whatever it was wasn't helpful or meaningful in anyway. I am so disappointed in this place.

    LouAnn (1/2 the soft cheese taco, enchilada with rice and beans)
    Jenni D.

    Everything was so good! Were started with a bowl of Queso (love melted cheese) and I had a Mambo Taxi (always good) I had the LouAnn and he had the brisket tacos. (I LOVED those brisket tacos) I ate the tostada and taco and I was full. I have the soft cheese taco and enchilada with rice and beans for dinner tomorrow:) already excited about dinner!! Our server was so nice and helpful. We sat in the back where I have only sat once before and liked that I could see my car from the window.

    Chicken Tortilla Soup
    A T.

    The chicken tortilla soup tasted fresh and the shredded chicken was tasty; needed more fresh avocado cubes in it & could have had a more savory broth than what it came with. The queso tasted like the canned kind instead of fresh cheese; tortilla chips are thick & slightly stale. Overall was good but wouldn't go out of my way for it.

    Mambo Taxis always hit the spot
    Amy S.

    I love this location and always get the best service. David was our server and he took such good care of us. The manager, Ana checked on us as well and overall just a great experience. This is a go to spot for me and my friends.

    Margaritas!

    A girlfriend and I stopped in for dinner after a day of shopping. Had to wait as they were busy (apparently there is a rodeo in town) but the wait wasn't too long. The food was delicious. Well the aged cheddar enchilada was great. I wasn't too fond of the picadillo but I'm super picky when it comes to picadillo. The cream sauce was also delicious. Our server was super sweet and attentive! I would definitely go back

    Fabulous dining experience! Kind & attentive servers. Perfect Tex-Mex dishes & beverages. Decor is bright & open, with so many tables & booths available AND an awesome patio space AND a great bar/seating area upstairs. Plenty of parking in the adjacent lot, & located at I-30 @ Hulen Ave. Highly recommend the Spinach Enchiladas that are served with sautéed veggies (YUM). Enjoy!

    Fiance and i walked were exploring and walked past an oddly placed and weirdly small laundromat…read morebefore realizing that there is no way this just a tiny random laundromat. We poke our heads in (accidentally going through the exit door. the front door is well camouflaged) and just found a wonderful very chilled out bar. Haven't been to a speakeasy in a long time. It was dark lighting with ambient black lights and string lights to keep it dim but you wont struggle to see through. Music was not super loud and the chairs were incredibly comfortable and the whole place was laid out to just have drinks and lounge while talking with friends. No food, which is fine. You have plenty of options on the same block for that. This place is just for drinks and conversation. The seasonal menu was awesome. It iss a bar so they of course can make anything you request if you don't want a specialty cocktail. I got my favorite, a moscow mule but they had a brazilian mule on the specialty menu. I never had that before and ordered it on the spot. It was grapefruit vodka with lime, lots of fine pellett nugget ice (the really good kind) with ginger beer and condensed milk. My god it was great, they told me how they made it because i never saw milk added to this before. It was a delicious limeade that almost was slushy like, creamy and with tangy vodka. Plus they actually served it in a proper copper mug. Best mixed drink ive had period and a cool twist on my favorite standard moscow mule. The place is now going to become a frequent haunt for us. Its very laid back, relaxed, with fantastic ambiance. It doesn't get jammed packed and is not meant to get wild in. We went there around 7pm on a friday night with about 8 or so others already there with their drinks. It did pick up later with 15-20 people in there but still spacious and comfortable. It genuinely was just a nice bar to have drinks and conversations with friends. Nice music that isn't too loud so you can talk with normal voice levels. The bartenders we had were super nice and charismatic. The drinks were not expensive, a respectable 13 bucks for my mule. If you have a bill over 40 dollars they automatically add 20% gratuity to it so keep that in mind when you are tipping. And after 8pm everything had 20% gratuity added to the bill. But the service is so damn good that you will probably still want to tip on top of that anyways. I loved it so much i actually made a yelp account just to post a review. TLDR super cool speakeasy type joint, cool aesthetics and laundry theme. Not loud, good for drinks and chit chat, cool well crafted specialty cocktails that don't break the bank. Good bartenders. Good times. Cozy seats that encourage you to hang out and talk even with folks you haven't met before and dim without being dark lighting. Clean bathroom too and quick charismatic service. Hit this place up for sure even just for the novelty of it. It was a wonderful surprise bar for a date night. Pro tip for this area in general. all paid parking, some place validates some do not, i am unsure if they do here but there is paid parking right out front and also a paid lot literally across the street. But i don't even bother. About a block and a half away northeast is a big shopping complex with a target. i just park there for free and walk. its a short nice walk and doesn't cost 20 bucks.

    Super late review as it's been quite some time since I visited Dirty Laundry, but it's still a spot…read morethat stands out. Highlights: Super fun speakeasy-style entrance Small interior, but the seating is arranged really well for different group sizes and feels surprisingly comfortable I don't recall them offering food during my visit, but the bartenders were friendly and were able to make a great mocktail Surrounded by different eateries, so it's easy to grab food nearby before or after drinks Easy parking, which is always a plus (street or parking garage nearby)

Fantastic choice! The menu is very "urban hipster" vibes. Plenty of burgers, lots of fun appetizers, charcuterie, one of my friends has some dietary restrictions and they were easily able to accommodate her needs which made us all very happy. This spot has a great bar in the front, and a smaller bar in the rear of the place. Outdoor seating as well as covered seating. Plenty of shade as well which will serve their patrons nicely in the coming Texas summer months. This is also a dog friendly dining spot, plenty of people were there with some amazing canine companions (always ask before you pet a strangers pup, it's just polite and courteous. Almost no one says No!). Assuming you don't have a dog allergy, this will hopefully be a feature. There is a relatively new apartment complex across the street and I get the feeling a lot of the people stopping in were regulars who bring in their dogs during walkies and grab a bite before heading back home, but that is just pure conjecture on my part. Either way, it was a fun inviting atmosphere. The music was nice, not too loud for my old man ears to enjoy but still present enough to be part of the evening without being intrusive. Staff was very nice, helpful, friendly, etc. Everything one would expect from a fine Texas eatery. Lots of spicier options on the menu if you're into that, but by no means anything overpowering. My guess is the owner has stock in some jalapeno growers farm somewhere and the food is all the better for it! If you're in the area already or if you're thinking of branching out for a nice new burger spot, this place is great and I will be returning. I live nearby so it'll likely become part of the regular rotation for us in the coming months. We are spoiled for choice in this area when it comes to good burgers being close to Grumps, close to Kincaid's, and close to Tommy's up on Camp Bowie. But this place competes on good burgers and if you're looking for a fun hangout atmosphere, you'd be hard pressed to find better. Easily recommended! Give them a try, I don't think you'll regret it! Cheers!
