    Sangria
    Hana C.

    Well I didn't even take a pic of what I ordered because the presentation wasn't very great. I got enchiladas and rice and it's pretty subpar. Their drinks are pretty good. The guac was kinda bland. The price is just not great for the quality of the food.

    This visit changed my opinion of Mi Cocina. Last time I ate here, I swore I wouldn't come back, but today I was with a group that came here. I had a totally opposite experience. I love the ambiance. It's very modern with lots of black decor and spaciousness. We were a large party, so we got a large table with a lazy Susan, perfect for sharing. Several of us ordered a specialty cocktail, a margarita mixed with Sangria. It was delicious and a bit strong. I ordered the #3 on the lunch menu, which is 2 cheese enchiladas with chili gravy and beans and rice. The enchiladas were quite good. There's nothing that says Tex-Mex quite like chili gravy over cheese enchiladas. The refries were very flavorful. Sadly, I think refries in most restaurants are a bit bland and watered down. Not these. Several people at our table got Quesadillas. They had a nice presentation which included slices of avocados. My daughter got a brisket dish which had a good flavor but was a little greasy. It comes with cilantro rice which is much better than the rice that comes with enchiladas. The service was excellent. No complaints there. Our server had a large table with people arriving at different times and wanting separate checks and he gave us perfect service with a smile.

    Mambo taxi on the rocks

    There is street parking and parking in a shared lot to the right of the restaurant and behind it. We typically have to park about a block or two away. We stopped in on a busy Saturday night and were able to get a table right away. It had been a while since our last visit, the chips and salsa were brought quickly. I love this salsa has it has a quick to it but is a little too spicy for my husband. The chips are good a little thicker than other places. I love the mambo taxi on the rocks, it's my go to when we have dinner here. I tried something new and got the shrimp tacos which had pieces of bacon, I really enjoyed them. There was a good portion of shrimp. I didn't love the green rice, it was different but I am glad I got a side of creamy and yummy refried beans. Our waitress was busy but did check in and provide good service.

    So I've lived in Tulsa all my life and this was my first time going here. It's was a very nice space but didn't feel like the price point fit the style. It kind of felt like a fine dining space with Charleston/ cheddar price points which was nice The service was good. I got to practice speaking Spanish. It did take a away for the food to come out but they were packed Food: Quesadilla: 7:10 TACOS DE CAMARONES: 8.5/10 very good Guacamole: basic but good Chips: 5/10 I wasn't a fan of the chips kinda felt stale Salsa: 4/10 felt like it was crushed tomatoes out of a can Will be back

    Food was great and service even better! We were lucky to have Amy G as a server and she was absolutely phenomenal. Our table of 5 all ordered different drinks and never did we go thirsty or wanting anything. Her kindness and service alone was worth the visit and the great dishes were an amazing accompaniment.

    Our server was Savana and she was excellent. Very pleasant and professional in every way. Promptly refilled our beverages and water. Answered our questions about menu items and made appropriate suggestions. My Chicken and Rice soup was outstanding. The Flan, to die for. Nicely decorated for the Holidays.

    Vegan menu- three items.
    Bracken K.

    They have a vegan section on the menu. It only has three items but one can order without having to ask all of the questions to unearth the veganitude of an order. The food is a pretty good chain Tex-Mex experience, certainly one of the better Tex-Mex places with vegan options in Tulsa. The service was prompt and friendly.

    We have given Mi Cocina several chances, but this last time was the most disappointing. The food has always been subpar. We always expect to leave super satisfied and the food always falls short. This time, the meat was pretty flavorless and the taco shells were completely covered in grease. We ate some of the meat from the inside. The rice was dry and tasteless. Also, it seemed as though they missed our order because it took a really long time to get our food - other tables that came in after us were eating their meals way before us. The service was the best part of our experience! Our waitress was very friendly and apologetic about the wait time. We aren't rushing to come back.

    I made a reservation and they didn't have a table ready for me. Food and service were good though.

    El Rio Verde is authentic Mexican food, not TexMex. It's in an older neighborhood near I-244 and…read moreUtica and doesn't look like much from the outside (or the inside), but the food is great! It's well-worn but clean. Staff is quick and friendly. The prices are very reasonable. You'll leave full, but not bloated. I've been a fan of El Rio Verde for many years and always look forward to eating here. It's not a large place and only has perhaps four or five booths and a half-dozen tables, and it fills up fast at lunch. They're known for their "Wet Burrito," but the enchiladas and burritos are also outstanding. The refried beans are fresh and made in-house. The salsa is freshly made too and very good, but not memorable like the food. You'll see people from all walks of life eating here - couples, single moms with children, police officers, business people, blue collar workers, and everyone in-between. If you want really good Mexican food that is not TexMex or from a chain restaurant, try this place! You won't regret it! One of my favorite places in Tulsa. However, as of this review, be aware that Utica Avenue, just east of the restaurant, has been blocked to north-bound traffic only for water main replacement, so getting into the neighborhood is easier than leaving. Plan to go toward downtown on the service road next to I-244 for most efficient egress.

    We tried the coctel de camaron-it was full of shrimp and tasted so fresh! The food was delicious…read moreand service is always attentive and friendly.
