    Lunch menu
    Terrance G.

    Came here for a work lunch and despite it being pretty packed we were seated on the upper level very quickly. The service was really quick and flowed well from drinks to dinner. The tacos de brisket are a must try. The corn tortilla shell was cooked perfectly and the brisket was overflowing in the taco and was so tender and filling. The salsas are delicious but beware of the crema verde salsa it's got a good flavor but it'll kick you in the chest.

    Food, service, and taste are one of my favorites when visiting Dallas. If you're here for dinner, you got a chance to try their 'Delux 57.' Pretty much has everything and the Cosina sink!

    I think if you're looking for a good lunch spot this is a good choice. They have a great lunch hour menu. The food is good for the price.

    Came to Mi Cocina once again but for lunch this time. Was served on by Miguel who was just so kind, everyone who works here is attentive and caring. Miguel gave us some great recommendations but I just had to get the Ceviche again and my husband got the Mi Tierra tacos. He brought some green hot sauce , it was spicy but so DELICIOUS. Thanks again for a great lunch

    I have never dined at a Mi Cocina before this visit and I am grateful. The food was dry, flavorless, and just completely lacking. I cannot comprehend the popularity of this chain. Friendly servers though

    Fave Margaritas!!

    Nachos + Best Margaritas! Love to visit - they don't take reservations so plan ahead!

    Came here last sunday night and i was a bit surprised with how noisy it was. I was glad for the upstairs area that proved to be a little quieter. It took a bit to flag our server down to take our order but the food came out in good time and was pretty tasty. No complaints.

    Taquitos and salad

    Mi Cocina's Highland Park location in Dallas has delicious taquitos & salsa! Went on a Saturday afternoon and the wait was long so I opted to eat outside and I was pleasantly surprised at the great service I received. My server was very attentive and kept my water glass full. I definitely appreciated that as I was burning up from the Texas sun. Their guacamole was smooth and delicious and so was my mezcal margarita. Will definitely come back next time I'm in Dallas and want to sit inside. The restaurant was decorated in beautiful Mexican decor. This place would be awesome for date night and large party gatherings. The plaza this restaurant is located in has security parking and valet. Also great luxury shopping location near the restaurant.

    Chicken enchiladas with sunset sauce.
    Skip S.

    Such a great location. Christmas lights in The Village are beautiful. I had the chicken enchiladas with sunset sauce. Definitely recommend you get a side of this regardless of what you order. It's great. Has some nice heat. If you like caramelized onions they cook them perfectly. My wife who is Ms Particular definitely endorsed the caramelized onions. Be on the lookout for rookie servers. Good news is the managers are there to back up when needed. Check out the Monkey Bar upstairs as well!

    Sour cream, chicken, with rice, pico, and guac.
    Andrew G.

    For what it is, Mi Cocina is just all right. Nothing stands out either good or bad. All of the food is as expected. The portions are a bit smaller than they appear. Flavoring on the protein is generally good, but not exceptional. There seems to be a lack of a little authentic Mexican spice. Our waitress was good, but one little hangup I have is her wearing an earbud while serving us. Overall, it was a nice meal, and a very beautiful area.

He literally told me, "If a drop of rain comes, then I'll give it to you." It had rained for much of the day, and multiple customers were asking about the same promotion. If the requirement is that rain must physically be falling while you order, that needs to be clearly stated in the advertisement. Otherwise, the promotion feels misleading. I've been to Parliament several times and have never had a bartender interpret the rainy-day happy hour this way. I ended up ordering a smoked Old Fashioned from another bartender I've had before, and it was great. He was friendly, engaging, had great energy, and even did tricks while making the drink. I still enjoyed my cocktail, but it would've been nice to have the option to order from the happy-hour menu as advertised that day. I'm including the Instagram post for reference. I'm very disappointed as I've never not had a good time at Parliament. I really think that the owner should look at the Times stamps around 930 to 10:15pm part night and see the difference of business and traffic flow from when the taller bartender with the glasses versus the shorter Bartender with the glasses was at the front as it was instantly more business. Oh and lastly, I left my Betsy JOHNSON purple umbrella. I'm so sad and they don't have a number to call.

I love seeing how different clubs in different cities set themselves up. Plus, any excuse to meet new people and play with them is a good reason. My wife had some business things to handle via zoom in the hotel room so I went over to this club myself. I had just visited the one in New Orleans a few days earlier and was excited to check this one out. Of course, there is always the waivers, fees and check in stuff when new at any club. As a single female for the night, they definitely streamlined the process. Single, attractive women that swing are treated like royalty at swing clubs. This club was no different. Once was inside, having forgotten to bring anything to drink, as this club was byob, I found myself alcohol deficient. I had to barter for drinks and had fun making trades. If you get my meaning. I found this club fun, clean and had plenty of attractive, fun and play minded men and women. The staff were all pleasant and I saw nobody pushing nor violating the rules. There was a good mix of ages from mid twenties to people in their sixties. Nobody pressured me nor made me feel uncomfortable in any way. I found four like minded women and really enjoyed their company. I only stayed for about three hours but I really enjoyed it. If I lived in the Dallas area, I'd certainly be a member and spend my Saturday nights there. If swinging is your thing or you just like to watch and enjoy the vibe, this club is for you.
