    The food has been nothing but delicious. I just recently moved to the area and I can't stop going to "Tu Cocina." The pernil is one of my favorite dishes. Always tender, juicy, and the mojo is very good. Additionally, the "rabo" omg so tasty. I've never had "rabo" until I tried it here in "Tu Cocina" furthermore, the salad dressing is exquisite! The Moro is my ultimate favorite side dish along with the maduros. Can't leave behind the tostones always hot, fresh, and crispy. The tres leche, god bless the hands that makes it. Im lactose intolerant and I pay no mind to that, it's worth it. Great service from start to finish. The atmosphere is great and above that the music is great sets the ambience.

    What a gem in the neighborhood!! So glad we finally got to try this restaurant that I had…read morebookmarked for a while, and it certainly did not disappoint. Very spacious restaurant with lots of seatings. We were seated immediately on a Friday night. We all ordered the combo/mix-and-match and the portions were huge!! Loved the seaweed oyster soup and grilled mackerel. Others ordered the LA galbi which was probably one of the best we've had. So flavorful. Seafood pancake was also good. Prices were very reasonable. Staff were very friendly. Service was attentive and fast. Our Korean friend said their kimchi was one of the best she has had. No wonder the restaurant actually sells it in a jar. Only complaint is it's tiny parking in the front but street parking is also available. This restaurant definitely has become one of our favorites.

    Decent food, reasonable prices, and good service overall…read more Gamjatang (4/5): Good portion size. The broth was decent but not great; it leans more on the herbal side and isn't as spicy as other places. Oyster, Seaweed & Beef Soup (3/5): Packed with seaweed, but only came with about 5 oysters and very little beef. The broth had a strong, decent seafood flavor. Fried Spanish Squid (3/5): This wasn't on the menu, but I was excited they could make it since I'd seen photos from 7 months ago. However, it was baby squid rather than the body of the squid. It also felt a bit overcooked, lacking that fresh, chewy texture

The lobster and clams were overcooked and came out rubbery. The sauce was bland, no depth or kick to it at all. Was really hoping for better, but it just didn't live up to the hype for me.

    this place is terrible! worst seafood boil i've ever had, from the food to the service to the…read moreambience it fails all around. the seafood is low quality and seems old? we ordered snow crab legs and the meat was so shrunken and flavorless that i felt like i was cracking open empty shells the whole time. i ordered the cajun flavor at a level 3 and it was a watery mess, barely delivering any flavor or heat. completely missing actual garlic it tasted like they dumped spices in water instead of butter, so none of the sauce clung to the crab meat. our waitress was very nice but we were the only people dining in the restaurant at the time and about 15 minutes after my husband and I received our food she came by to tell us they didn't have enough crab legs for the remaining 2 orders at our table. I wish she had told us this sooner, as we had to place a new order for my in-laws while we were almost done with our own food. strange that they were out of snow crab legs and dungeness crab so early in the evening and with so few customers. also the restaurant is freezing cold, dingy, and dark, which adds to the over all unpleasant dining experience. definitely skip this place!

    It's a nice and elegant restaurant. The food and service however were under performed…read more Clams on half shell tasted so bad. I wonder if it was fresh at all. Grilled octopus with mango salad was good. Refreshing from the mango. Chilean sea bass on risotto was a bit salty. I needed a lot of water. I feel the whole team can do better on paying attention to customers. Our waiter didn't come back to take the entree order until my husband reminded him. Empty plates were on our table for a while before they picked it up. Bread was done , no asking if we want more or take it away. And I could see them chatting all together at the side. It made me decide not to have dessert.

    I made a Sunday lunch reservation to celebrate birthday of a family member. Upon arrival, we were…read moreonly the second party in the dining floor. The space looked modern, with wonderful decors and interior. They also had shaded outdoor seating, hightop tables and a huge bar as well. We started the lunch with blackened Octopus with mango salad (appetizer special of the day), that was a really good dish. The clams casino was an interesting, baked top on a citrusy sauce. For entree, we ordered the Chilean Sea bass, that had a very well cooked filet, but the risotto didn't taste good to me. I got had the Branzino that had extra crispy grilled skin, but the fish itself survived from being dry. The kale was good and mash potato was decent. My daughter liked her penne pasta with butter and cheese. We wanted to get some mocktails, but they were out of virgin mojito, per the server. Not sure how was that possible!!! The disappointing part of the lunch was the mediocre service. Even though I mentioned it was a birthday celebration in the reservation, no one bothered to wish or ask us if we were celebrating anything. Our server only had to attend our table, yet he only came by three times, once to ask us about water, then to take our order, and once after our appetizers were served. Half of the time he invisible and rest of the time he was just hanging out by the register area stairs, chit chatting with other staff members. We refilled our own water and had to grab other stuff members to get extra plates and utensils. I was super annoyed to pay premium price only to experience a diner like service. I didn't even bother to order the Zeppole from the dessert menu. I paid the check and we walked out as quickly as we could.
