The menu had so many options, I had a hard time choosing, but the girl at the register gave me her honest opinions and helped guide me to what would satisfy my cravings that day. The flavors of this waffle, pork belly, peanut butter and maple syrup sandwich were on point and I can't wait to go back to yuma for more! Might have to wait til summer though. Such a friendly little spot, there was a meeting of the housewives of Yuma in the corner and it had such a home feel to it. Can't wait to explore more of the menu! Oh. And the prices are incredibly reasonable!

Stopped here for lunch on a Thursday after really wanting a sandwich. Upon arrival, the staff let…read moreus know they were out of sandwiches and salads. Something about them not having made bread (amazing their bread is homemade!) and being out of lettuce. The only item they could offer was tacos. Ended up ordering the shrimp tacos, which were delicious! They came with a spicy sauce on the side and it had a good kick! The inside is inviting and offers tons of seating. They do have a patio with some outdoor seating and also parking spots right out front. The service was great. My only reason for giving 4 stars is them being out of their main options on the menu.

Second time I've been here, second time disappointed. I'd probably rate closer to two and half…read morestars, but Yelp won't let me, so three it is. My girlfriend was supposed to have her car serviced at the dealership today. A wrench was thrown in the works, so the three of us met for breakfast. My boyfriend and I had already had breakfast, so we ordered off the lunch menu. I had a fried chicken sandwich, he had the chicken Caesar wrap. GF got the churro French toast breakfast plate with poached eggs and bacon. The waitress (Caitlin?) didn't pay much attention to our table. When we got our food, the fried chicken breast in the sandwich was lukewarm and she didn't ask about any sauce (ranch, etc) for the onion rings. The lady had to ask for the poached eggs and bacon. Also, she ordered an iced mocha with oat milk and caramel. Correct me if I'm wrong, but nowhere on the menu did it say that oat milk is an additional cost. Caramel was an additional cost. For a puny little iced coffee it ended up being $10. No refills. And we had to ask for ranch. She filled up my boyfriend's water glass and not mine. If it's empty, fill it. It's a hundred and something outside, please make sure all your guests are hydrated. The bill was $70. The lunches were extremely overpriced for what we got, to be honest. I know that prices have gone up and that inflation is a thing. I get that, I really do. The chicken sandwich was definitely not worth $15 and although the onion rings were good (and I'm thankful we weren't charged extra for them), it was still a letdown. This was akin to a $12 combo meal at a fast food joint. The first time I was here was a couple months ago. I had ordered the Denver omelette and when the waitress came out, she brought the wrong omelette ,(the three meat) out and didn't even try to correct her mistake even AFTER I had said it was wrong. That waitress was also inattentive and ignored us for the majority of our meal. We don't eat out a whole lot so it's a treat when we do. Less of a treat to receive subpar, overpriced food and subpar service. Sorry.

Perhaps the best kept culinary secret for those seeking breakfast or lunch La Cocina should be on every Yumans radar! There is a refinement to La Cocina and yet it's a relaxed environment with lovely contemporary Hispanic instrumental music. An outdoor patio offers Second floor views of what keeps Agriculture epic. Today newly planted fields were being watered with sprinklers and others beyond were fresh with new green! Look to the west and the view is of a proud Arizona community with lush tree tops rising above. Care has been taken in the decor of this comfortable establishment quite suitable for a casual ladies brunch or a business lunch. Chips and salsa are served in an elevated manner from what we have come to expect. Place settings are clean and glassware l The menu offers lighter versions of Rellenos, tacos and tortilla and lettuce wraps even Burgers! Slices of cake are ample, cheesecake and tiramisu are also available! Tuna tacos were the special but as I am a big fan of Rellenos the Au Gratin Tuna Chili Rellenos appealed to me. Never in a million years would I have combined my mothers tuna salad recipe minus pickles with Ortega style green chilies. A salad of lettuce and two thick slices of tomatoes were dressed with a delicate oil and vinegar combo. I might not order this dish again but it was light and yummy. The Sowthwestern Chicken Salad with a double baked potato sounded yummy too! Starbucks beverages are featured and the prices for coffee beverages are excellent! (And I'm not a fan of Starbucks) Meet Candy when you dine! The story of La Cocina will touch your heart as it did mine! Oh... be sure to order an espresso with your Dessert!

The sandwich came with plenty of stuff inside and was very good. The takeaways were that I'd have them toast the bagel and that it's a little hard to manage as the contents on the spread want to try to escape out the back sandwich. Grab extra napkins! The to-go bagels were all great, over the next couple days, the g/f and I tried them and all were fresh and loaded with whatever the type of bagel was.
