This place is beautiful, clean, and inviting! Serice was amazing, top notch! The food was absolutely delicious! I was surprised it came so fast as some reviews stated food took too long. It came as fast as fresh food can arrive. Armando was one of our servers, he's very good at remembering what you order without writing it down!I ordered Tres Amigos. Chicken taco, Chicken Tamale with green sauce, and chile relleno. Chicken taco was much smaller than I expected, so Im glad I ordered tres amigos. It was tasty though. Next time I know to order 2. The chicken Tamale was very tasty!!! It had a bit of lime flavor, which I love! So I'll definitely order that again! The chile relleno literally beat any I've EVER had! The cheese was so perfectly melted. It was perfectly breaded! The pepper wasn't too spicy, just enough for me! I like spicy, but not burn your face off spicy. So it was perfect!My husband got the barbacoa burrito wet with green sauce. He said the barbacoa is better than Los Jarritos. Which is saying a lot because he doesn't like ANYWHERE but Los Jarritos! He was very happy with his burrito. He didn't like the green sauce as much as Los, he likes a more watery green sauce. He said this green sauce was too creamy. Which I disagree, I like a thicker creamier green sauce like this one. I thought it was well done, just my opinion. We often disagree. To each their own!All in all this place is a hit, and we will definitely be back to try more!!!***Must try new restaurant in Downtown La Verne

Came here for Happy Hour from 3-8pm and it was fantastic! Great menu for jumbo margaritas, quesadillas and Mexican pizza all items under $10 which is a great deal. Good portions and all delicious! Great and attentive service. Margaritas were strong too! My friends don't drink so they ordered a jamaica instead and it was gigantic. I highly recommend this place to come relax and hang out in the patio.

So after some business in town, we decided to check out this little hole in the wall. Parking is always hard to find on this little street. Only one handicap parking spot and the curb was cut for handicap that's a plus. This restaurant is located in a very busy traffic area. Outside dinning with about 4-5 tables and chairs. As we walked to the doors it had two entrances which is kinda confusing on which one to get to the restaurant, I understand after we walked in why two doors. It seems to have a bunch of smaller offices and retail stores and even upstairs. Inside has approximately 15-20 tables and chairs and clean. A nice atmosphere to sit a chill with a few friends and drinks and watch a game on two TV's. A full bar from what I can see from my table. We were greeted by one of the workers and sit anywhere (Maybe it's a sign but no one was even in there). We were taken back by all the food they offer on the menu. The drinks arrived (7-Up and an Ice Tea plain) 7-Up or something similar was off. Not sure if it was an off brand but it didn't sit well. Our food arrived and it was time to chow !! Easy don't get to excited. I'm not sure where to start but a simple cheese enchilada with green sauce and Spanish rice. Everything was VERY salty to the point I can't eat it anymore. Now I'm not negative on salt but only in proportion with my food !!! It didn't even look appealing. The plate was VERY HOT but the food wasn't. Lastly the price, I'm on a tight budget nowadays just like most of us are, so we order accordingly and what we can afford. We were thinking if we keep it under $40.00 we'll be ok. Well again kinda confusing when we get to the counter to pay it's a totally different price than the menu.. it was never explained to us that if you pay with a credit card it's a totally different price then what's on the menu. There price on the menu is a CASH PRICE ONLY !!! They charge 3% on top of the total of the bill. Our bill was well OVER the $40.00 mark. Now that doesn't sound like much but when your on a budget it can add up. Very misleading and no where on there menu does it mention that difference and nobody explains this fact to you. Now I don't like to bash any restaurant I've been to in the past years but just be aware of these hidden costs with some restaurants it can truly add up. Here are my numbers, in my humble opinion, for Mi Cocina Mexican Grill. Ambiance: 7 of 10Service: 5 of 10Food: Negative 3 of 10Return: 0 of 10Overall there are a lot of Mexican restaurants out there and I'm sure I can find better. Until Next Time,Stanley.

Average at best . I enjoyed the appetizer Mexican pizza and the services excellent.my only complaint is the food could have been hotter. Cheese on top of pizza and milita wasn't melted. I will give this place another chance . Give a try and let me know what your think.

Honestly I was a bit disappointed with the service and the food. They took a while to acknowledge us and take our order for drinks and we were sitting in front of the restaurant. The food also was a bit disappointing. We did order from the happy hour menu so the portion size was fine it was the lack of flavoring that did it. The decor of this establishment was very nice though.

My only experience with this restaurant was with their happy hour and marguaritas. Both were delicious.Today I ordered a take out carnitas tostada and was disappointed. There was a limited amount of the salad part (lettuce and tomatoes and cheese) and a lot of meat. However the carnitas was only about half shredded and the rest was in big chunks and was dry and the outside edges were hard. I think in the future we will stick to the happy hour. Much better experience. Edie H,

Outstanding food and service, can't go wrong with Carnitas plate. Carmen's recipes for her salsas are great.

This place is excellent. Great food and great prices. I've gone several times now and left happy. Their taco tuesday is pretty good; especially if you like margaritas. I've posted up a picture of their happy hour menu. So far we've only bought the wings off it, but we did try several margaritas. Every time we've been there we've been able to be seated immediately. I expect that to change as word gets out about this place.

So the place we originally wanted to try our wait time was 2 hours.... This is how we needed up in the beautiful old town of Laverne. We looked up on yelp for local Mexican restaurant with high reviews and this is how we found this restaurant. When we arrived it was empty, that should have been a hint. We were starving so we decided to try it. The service is amazing, the workers worked hard to bring us what we needed . The pineapple strawberry agua Fresca delicious! The food was not what we expected, so bland, none of the plates were what we expected so disappointed and I'll leave it that.

Very sweet service but the food was not good. Food was dry and flavorless. Good margarita but not worth returning because of food. So disappointed.
