    Mi Cocina is already one of my favorite spots, but this visit stood out even more than usual. Liz, our server, was amazing. She was so attentive, friendly, and on top of everything the entire time. The food was delicious as always, and the mambo taxis never disappoint. The patio made it even better on such a beautiful day.

    We just ordered guacamole and we also got the complimentary chips and salsa. The flavor was good, the salsa was a bit too spicy for us, they brought some less spicy but the flavor wasn't as good. We enjoyed the outdoor seating, it was the perfect weather. Service was decent, his towards the end when we were waiting to go we had to ask someone to get our server so we could pay.

    Rico Salad
    Chantae' H.

    Visiting in town for only a few days. This spot is located across from silver and blue parking near The Star. Easy walking access to many food and drink spots. Stopped in for lunch and enjoyed the Rico salad (no cheese). The salad with plentiful and fresh. They were not shy on the topping which made this salad delicious. The place was busy. Quite beautiful decorated with large lounge chairs. If you are looking for a quiet, intimate place this is not it. But if you're looking for a place to grab a bite of fresh, great food, amazing salsa and a drink- I would recommend.

    I was at the star for happy hour with friends and we decided to go to an oldie but goodie Mi Cocina. After arriving at Mi Cocina we were quickly seated. It was packed. I think this is because of the affordability, tasty chips and salsa, great service, delicious drinks, and family environment. I love the chips and salsa and always like coming here just for that. I got the mambo taxi cocktail. I hadn't had this cocktail in several years but it was as nice as I remembered and I was glad I got it. I was really hungry and got the shrimp ceviche as my meal. It was very tasty. Mi Cocina is still a great option and is always a great choice!

    Close to Omni Frisco this Mexican spot is walking distance. I ordered the platter with nachos, flautas and quesadillas options. It's was tasty! The music was great and service friendly.

    Always heard good things about Mi Cocina, so we stopped by for the very first time for Cinco De Mayo! We were seated and got our chips and salsa quickly! Our server, Aubrey, was truly a doll! She was patient and so accommodating. I got the famous mambo taxi and a mix of chicken and beef fajitas with corn & flour tortillas! It was all so delicious! I really enjoyed Mi Cocina's salsa as well; it was so addicting. The only downside of the visit was how slow the food and drink got out to us. I noticed it took a while for other tables to get their food too, so it was disappointing to wait when it wasn't such a full house! Aubrey was extremely sweet about everything, and she was truly what made the visit worthwhile! Overall had a good first experience here, I'd try Mi Cocina again.

    First I have to say the manager Fermin was phenomenal he was really attentive his recomendación we're really good . This definitely won't be my last time eating here 100% recommend the ambience the service the management and food are one of the best mi cocina I have tried.

    Went here with my family today. Food was great and service was quick. Ambience was also cool. I tried their Rico Salad, chips with guacamole, and the red fish which were also flavorful. However what I did not like was how they would want to take your plate without asking you if you were finished with your food. Overall though I still recommend this restaurant.

    For context, I visited with a group of coworkers for dinner on a weeknight. We were a little confused initially because when we called ahead, we were told that they didn't take reservations - but when our group of eight got there and needed a table, they didn't have one due to another reservation. Huh. It was fine, and we pulled up chairs to make it work, but something to take note of if you are bringing a large group. Outside of that, service was attentive and friendly. I was a little disappointed in the food. Maybe it was my choice of entree, but the chicken inside my enchiladas was seriously dry. The sauce on top helped a little, but it wasn't the moist, slow-cooked shredded chicken one expects in Mexican food. The flavors weren't bad, but it always hurts when a dish is too dry. I would consider going back to try a different entree, but I wasn't blown away by this experience.

    Whoever is bartending at this location, the young lady in the front I think it's time for you guys to have a talk with her. I literally sat down and it took her almost 10 minutes to even acknowledge me mind you it was only four people at the bar and it was around 8:30 so it wasn't that busy. She was at the prompt computer and then she was on her phone while I was trying to be served. Then she comes and decides to take the drink order. Then it took her another 20 minutes to take my food order. This is the second time I was here and she was bartending and same thing happen. It takes her a very long time to get people's orders. The food itself was not good and my order was wrong and had to be sent back. Y'all need to hire a better workers who don't stand there and socialize and pay attention to your guest.

The line there was out the door and around the corner. So, the long short of it is we never made it there! That said, we started with a few drinks here & played a fun table toss game. The staff were so friendly! Our server was attentive and accommodating throughout our entire time there. We even met the GM who was also super to talk too and little did we know how much we had in common with him. Since that line at the other eatery never really went down; we decided to stay and have dinner here. I had received a small sample earlier of their seafood étouffée, so that was an absolute must & went with a cup! My husband and I spilt their calamari which were large pieces cooked to perfection. Got a side of their cajun butter dip (additional fee) that took these over the top. My husband got two jalapeno poppers, he inhaled and their fried pickles that were a good size portion & super tasty. The dining experience was exceptional from start to finish. Friendly, welcoming environment- relaxed no pressure or rushed restaurant. It was unfortunate we missed out on the other spot, but fortunate enough that we discovered this spot & would definitely come back again. Get that étouffée, but in a bowl it's a MUST! LOL *NOTE- many patrons frequent this place & do come in to just purchase adult beverages too, to take over to the other establishment as they do not serve alcohol. This is absolutely acceptable and approved by BOTH businesses so they do welcome & work very well together regardless which one you end up at.

That tidbit aside it is definitely a cool environment. Service was really nice and the food we ordered was great. I presume it's the same menu as J Theodore so I'm going to have to try that now for a more restaurant style meal. This is a cool place to hang out and bring friends imo. Since we don't really drink we'll probably end up at the restaurant next time as it's not easy to eat on tiny tables. It's a bar/lounge after all.

The venue is designed to resemble a Prohibition-era speakeasy, with an entrance accessible through a rotary phone inside a red telephone booth (which actually works!). Our tour was led by Jamie, who shared his extensive knowledge as he guided us through the Prohibition Era alongside our concierge, Landon. The speakeasy features stunning floors made of 120-year-old Italian wood, beautifully decorated with art, books, and a selection of premium entertainment and spirits. Patrons can request "prescriptions," which are 2oz alcoholic shots inspired by the owner's grandfather, who was a pharmacist. Cocktails and friendly service was provided by Emma and Kyle, their services were a nod to Bob Ruede, RPB's renowned Intoxicologist, along with other award-winning bartenders recognized for their excellence in service and hospitality. Eric, the Cigar Attendant, is knowledgeable about how to properly enjoy an exceptional cigar experience. The Mafia Room is an exclusive space perfect for guys' and girls' nights, intimate events, corporate gatherings, and celebrations.
