I scanned the online menu and it didn't take me long to find the birria tacos. It came with two sides. I decided to try the charro beans and Spanish rice. The email I received said my wait would be about 20 minutes. I drove to the restaurant and waited in my car for a bit. When I walked in the restaurant there was someone attending to some tables. The was a sign to ring the bell to get some service but the waitress saw me. I told her that I had an online order and within a few minutes my food was ready. When I got home I noticed there was chips and salsa in my bag as well as the other items I ordered. I didn't realize my meal came with chips and salsa. I guess that's not out of the ordinary but it was a pleasant surprise. Anyway I started with the rice and then with the beans. There was nothing really special with the rice but I don't think I've had charro beans. They seem to be beans with what seemed like vienna sausage. It didn't taste bad. I really didn't know what to expect. On the to birria tacos. The definite star of the show. Being that my food was take out there was some sogginess to the taco shell but the tacos held up pretty good. I dipped the first taco in the consommé (yes, I googled it). It was very savory and the meat was tender. I don't eat a lot of authentic Mexican food but I know what good food tastes like. I definitely would recommend the birria tacos from La Cocina.

First off, I absolutely love their salsa, queso, and chips. They are some of the best in the…read morebusiness and they are just absolutely addictive. The chips are served nice and warm and have a light crunch to them, not overly heavy. Their salsa is just addictive and when you pair it with their queso, it's ridiculous. I ordered the chicken supreme dish I think is what it was called. Chicken breast flattened and nicely grilled, topped with mushrooms and onions and cheese. Serve with rice and beans, I couldn't finish at all, but I surely wanted to. The service was very friendly and attentive, mostly comfortable atmosphere. Loud patrons, a couple boot away, put a damp around things, but that's not really the fault of the restaurant, just inconsiderate, loud patrons. The only issue I have, is when we walked in the place just kind of smelled funky. They had a couple of candles lit, I think to mask the odor. And I really can't say what it was, but it was across between maybe garbage and trash smell. Aside from the unpleasant smell when you walk in, the food and service was on point. I would absolutely come back here for takeout.

We were seated quickly and the usual chips and salsa arrived pronto. Salsa was very tasty, likely made in house. Menu has almost too many options, everything you could want in a restaurant like this. Made our selections and the food was outstanding. Fresh, delicious, and spicy enough without being crazy hot. Server was prompt with tea refills and attentive to all our needs. Dining room was not overly loud even with a couple of large groups and a kids birthday party in full swing. Nice dinner and dining experience, we will return.

All plates have the same...two of the same tacos and a side. The spot is very quaint, which is the reason that it fills very quickly during peak dinner and weekend hours.

My tacos were so delicious that i wanted to order every other taco on the menu and then sit there and eat them all. My experience was wonderful and I will definitely be back when I visit Mobile.

They offer Latin America food with burritos, tacos and tequila. The offer inside and outside seating and luckily we didn't have to wait on a Thursday night. I was excited to see jerk chicken on the menu, but decided instead to split the Boss Hog with my husband. The Boss Hog is a huge burrito that contains slow cooked pork, black beans, and cheese and is topped with pickled jalapeños, ranchero sauce and chipotle cream. It was really good, and splitting it was plenty for me. I also ordered a side of sweet plaintains which are always my favorite. I was glad to see them on the menu. When we got the check, it was cool because they brought it in a book. Yes, an actual book that you can read. People write notes on the pages which adds to the fun.

For as long as I lived in Mobile, Carnicería y Taqueria San Jose has eluded me. I've seen the name…read moreof this restaurant when searching Mexican food but never realized where it was. It's been hiding in plain sight to me. Anyway I wanted to try some Mexican food but the real kind and not the fake. I at first thought I wanted some tacos but I ultimately settled on quesadillas. The reason I picked quesadillas over tacos was mainly because quesadillas came with rice and beans. It was that simple. I ordered my meal online and decided to head over to the restaurant. I got there earlier than what the estimated time in my email said my food would be ready. The place was pretty close to packed. I realized the store was more than a restaurant because it displayed cuts of meat in the glass counter. I saw a family with children with popsicles that the parents had purchased along with the meal. When I moved further in the store I was approached by a employee and I told them I made an online order. She went back in the kitchen and came back with my food after a short wait. When I got back home, I couldn't wait to eat. There was a plate for salad and a plate for the quesadilla with the rice and beans. I mixed up the salad with the rice and beans. I don't eat Mexican food a lot so I'm not sure if that's how it's done but that's how I did it. I enjoyed it. Next I tried the carne asada quesadilla. This was like no quesadilla I had before. I say this knowing all quesadillas basically consist of the same thing: dough, meat, and cheese. This quesadilla was on another level because each of those ingredients were much better than what I've experienced before. The cheese was really the star of the quesadilla. It was so rich. I really loved this quesadilla. It was the best one I've ever had in life. Before I forget I want to mention I bought a Mexican Coca Cola with my meal. I could taste the difference from regular Coke but I can't exactly describe it. I loved it though. I really want to come back here and try more items on the menu.
