The interior is pretty basic, but clean and bright. The family running this place is so nice. How good is this place?? It survived Covid solely on its take-out business and the strength of its food. If you're ever on the way to or from the Palm Springs area or the mountain resorts, it's definitely worth a bookmark and a visit. I so wish this place was in my neighborhood.

I ordered takeout. The customer service was good. I…read moreordered 2 crispy beef tacos. A very simple item. While there was plenty of beef, there was absolutely no flavor. The tortilla not very crunchy and very little lettuce, cheese and tomato. The chips were stale and the salsa tasted like it came out of a can. I was very disappointed. This restaurant was definitely intended to accommodate the Caucasian demographic of which I am not. I am Mexican and definitely know what Mexican food should taste like. This isn't it! They should rename the restaurant or get cooks that make Mexican food the way it should be cooked. I was very disappointed. I will never go back. If you're Mexican do not come here! You'll be sadly disappointed.

The restaurant is always clean, and the atmosphere is comfortable with music playing at a good volume. It is a big improvement from the days when the music was blasting under the previous owners. The food is flavorful without relying on heavy spice. The chilaquiles are very good, the steak is cooked just right, and the Jamaica tastes fresh and homemade rather than coming from a powder. The black beans might be some of the best I have ever had, and they are consistently delicious every visit. La Cocina Grill is reliable, tasty, and well run. The combination of great service, clean surroundings, good food, and a friendly environment makes it one of the best spots to enjoy a meal in Banning

I didn't want to skimp on taste, or authentic flavors. This was our first time entering La Cocina Grill. We were immediately greeted by Janet, she was very warm and welcoming. As I often say, it's that first impression that does it for us. We were able to choose our own seating. Opened space seating with gorgeous art work on the walls. Wheel chair accessible, not crowded or confined. I normally enjoy chili that can burn your soul. However, what they lacked in heat, they far surpassed on flavor. Besides with my diet changes heat is not something I should be eating at this time :) So this restaurant was definitely what my body needed. {IMPORTANT} a semi hotter chili available upon request. My spouse enjoyed the vegetable omelet however, did not enjoy the French fries that came with it, would have rather had either Spanish rice or potatoes, the plate did include black beans which were super delicious. My spouse did truly enjoy the food tremendously. I ordered the spinach and mushroom vegetable enchilada plate which I too requested the black beans, it also included Spanish rice. Although, it was missing avocado slices, my personal favorite, and also a suggestion it would have been more amazing. I must state this dish did not lack in flavor, presentation and overall deliciousness. I will definitely will be ordering this dish again. Yes!, I promise it was that good. Opened Tuesday thru Sunday 10 am to 8 pm~ I learned they also feature a... Taco Tuesday, every Tuesday of course :) Wednesday is 30% off for seniors, and Thursday is Happy Hour all day. Thursdays Fajita night $14.95 I absolutely highly recommend you stop in and review it for yourself. I promise you wont be disappointed. COMPLIMENTS TO THE CHEF *****

It's not bad, it just lost some of what made it stand out. The food is still really solid though, which is why I keep coming back. The aguachile is one of the best things on the menu, super fresh with a good kick, and the tacos are consistently done right. Simple, clean, and you know what you're getting every time. It's a nice sit-down restaurant if you want to actually relax and eat instead of rushing through a meal. Service is usually solid even when it's busy. Fair warning, it gets packed after church and the wait can build up quick, so timing matters if you don't want to sit around. Not the same as it used to be, but still worth it for the food.

The food was honestly a hard 5 out of 10. The beans and chips were very good, but that was the highlight. It was just my husband and me: I got one shredded beef taco with a side of beans, he got three tacos, and we had two drinks total. The bill came out to $33 and some change, which just didn't feel worth it for the quality. I really wish it lived up to the Tacos & Beer I remember. Even the ambiance wasn't as vibrant as it used to be.

The ribeye, I ordered it rare but was overcooked and salty, even after politely sending it back the first time (and I never send plates back). With the ribeye breakfast being $33, I expected much better quality. The latte and cappuccino we ordered were lukewarm and overpriced for the size serving. The fresh corn tortillas were placed directly onto the plate and were cold in no time. Fresh tortillas are normally kept in a holder or wrapped in foil to keep them warm. Maybe it was a bad day, or maybe even it was the items we ordered. Very disappointing and I do not recommend.
