Food is always fresh! Our favorite is shredded beef burnt cheese tacos with extra salsa. Service is normal really good. Waitresses are friendly. Ambiance is clean-it's time for an update. It's a busy restaurant they can afford to class it up a bit. Restrooms are always clean. If you visit Las Vegas Kocina is a must try for that authentic northern NM vibe.

Service was really slow. The food wasn't that great. I ordered the taco plate and it was pretty plain. Also ordered chips and salsa since it's not complementary. The salsa was just hot but not very tasty. should have just went to a taco truck.

I was not very impressed with this restaurant. Our waitress seemed be in a big hurry and didn't have time for us. Should've left before we sat down. I realize all restaurants have staffing issues, I get it, but 2 hours to get our food, not normal. We asked for chips and salsa, that came about 15 minutes after we asked. Then we asked for more salsa, it took so long to get the salsa we ended eating most of the chips. I asked if we could get more chips, she yelled, we're out of chips. I didn't mean to not believe but when I looked toward the kitchen I noticed a clear container with about 10 gallons of chips in it. The Fajitas were good, the Frito Pie was real good, the stuffer was not edible and the Posole was cold, like out of the can cold! Probably won't ever come back

I rate based on entire experience and this was a 4/5 barely. But mostly for friendly waitress (tho understaffed), great red sauce, and huuuuuuge portions. It's not a fancy place at all but it's quaint, has a drive through area, and cute yard/outdoor area. The prices aren't amazing but not bad upon first look but for the portion size you get I think the prices are very good.I had their special the huevos rancheros (7.99 instead of normal 8.99) Christmas style to try both sauces. I really liked their green sauce so don't get me wrong but compared to other places I thought their green was above the average good sauce around here. I made this dish two meals but if it didn't get so soggy (nature of that dish) I could have made it last 3. Their beans also I thought were above average. Tortilla was average. My companions both had bacon stuffies in red sauce which they all seemed to love- I'm just not big on bacon stuffed in anything since I feel like crispiness is compromised. *side note I had takeout their once as well when I was sick. Companions brought me Chile rellenos but I didn't try them till the next night being sick. They were very good but naturally soggy sitting in a takeout box for nearly a day and reheated in a microwave. Even soggy messes they were delicious, I'd love to try them fresh! Our service was mixed- extremely friendly waitress but I think they're just understaffed like everyone else. It became busier after we had our food and getting a to go box (you'll probably need it) and getting out took awhile. Definitely would go back again.

Amazing food, great daily specials. Servers that really care to bring you quality food and friendly service. Table for party of four was packed with delicious fare. We went back three times plus had take out during a two week visit to Las Vegas...Definitely our favorite restaurant.

Fantastic food incredible service in the ambience was amazing The cheese enchilada was deductible. The burnt taco was mouthwatering, and the fajitas left you wanting more.

We enjoyed ourselves on a Tuesday at about 1 pm we sat down . It was very empty inside with one other family there dining . Our waitress was fast to bring us our drinks & our orders came out hot and fresh tasting . We did the chicken tacos, enchiladas, chile relleno, & sides of beans & rice. Waitress checked on us often & refilled our drinks without asking . Super good Nee Mexico style grub just like I remember it 10 years ago . We love this place & think the little out food patio section they built is great ! See you again Kocina

A place where the locals eat and everyone knows everyone. That's part of the charm of local cafes. The food. Oh my. Where to start Spicy - yepLarge portion - yepTasty - you bet From the first bite to the last it was delicious We ordered the enchilada special and added an egg. Smothered in green and red (Christmas) and didn't regret it. This is why we travel monthly from CO for our fix Pull of the main drag and give this spot a try

This restaurant has gone downhill their service is slow the never do take out orders they should go out of business since their worthless

I am very disappointed with my experience with this restaurant. I went on 8/23/22, in the drive thru line, at 6:13p, I was told it would take 20 minutes, and to wait at the parking lot. I began to wait and noticed other patrons receiving their orders after me... I went back to the window and asked about my order, it was given to me at 6:57p. Went to the hotel which was just a few minutes away. Opened my food, Stuffy was cold including the cheese, my nacho supreme was soggy, my server was Amberly S. and the cost was $26.00....so, it was a disaster and I'm letting others know of my experience.
