Cocinero

Really incredible dining experience at this Mexican restaurant.As soon as I walked in I was greeted with warm hospitality and an inviting atmosphere. The menu had a great selection of authentic Mexican dishes, and everything was well seasoned- The service was attentive without being overbearing, and the overall vibe was relaxed and fun. I can't wait to return and try more of the delicious offerings. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic, mouth-watering Mexican food!The tortilla chips were a little sharp- left my mouth feeling raw but the salsas were amazing! I loved the green salsa! I tried the fajitas and they were delicious. Portion was a little small for the price. Churros were so good- crispy and delicious!

Food: 4 to 5/5Ambiance: 5/5Wait time: 5/5Value: 3.5/5Service: 2 to 3/5Really enjoyed my mole chicken enchiladas. Just the right flavor and spiciness for me. "Standard" white rice was surprisingly good - cooked with garlic so bonus flavor. Don't let its bland appearance fool you. Refried beans were solid. Chips were good but a few tasted stale - funny, just a few. Red salsa was mild and okay. Green sauce was the BOMB.Ambiance is very similar to the last place that occupied this space, which is a good thing. Love it. And nice little patio with cool surroundings (water features).No wait time and food came out quickly.Didn't order any adult beverages so can't comment on cocktails, etc.Value was decent. Portions weren't huge so cost felt a bit high, but chips and salsa make up for it, so... most Mexican places overdo it and this was perhaps better balanced??Service was friendly and enjoyable - but we got forgotten about multiple times. Almost enough to drop overall rating to a 3. Service needs improvement. Part of it was being spread thin, which is okay, but part of it was not paying attention and walking right by us. Took 15-20 min to get the check at the end.So hopefully service improves because everything else was solid!

Most amazing Mexican food I've had in Texas. Staff is so informative and place is delightfully clean and inviting

Found this place through Yelp - was GREAT! Juan, the server was fantastic - the food and drinks on point! We left too early for the live music, but we will be back! Parking was easy, and a cute location with the fountains and lights!

Came here on a double date and we all enjoyed our meals. The star was the rice, surprisingly! Service was okay. Loved the decor and ambiance. Parking was little confusing.

This place is a hidden gem for real. The food is incredible and memorable. The service was on point and they are friendly with warm smiles, and of course the ambiance was beautiful and perfect for a date night! They have outdone theirselves. So excited to come back soon.

Food was fresh and just the right size for lunch. Service was prompt and friendly. Cozy and quiet.

Sat at the bar and ask for Nachos El Mar Ahí Tuna , it was super delicious and tasty. Bar services was excellent .

They mess up to go orders routinely. Now, they mess up orders at the restaurant. The food is above average, but there are too many good Mexican restaurants in Dallas to deal with all the mistakes.

Very bright and welcoming place, the food was excellent, and the hard-working server, Cesar, was gracious. The Karla Kay band was awesome, playing a variety of styles to please the crowd. Both the band and the DJ took requests, which we really appreciated. Everybody got up to dance, and we stayed till close. Will definitely be back.
