My husband and I are regulars at Mi Cocina, and we wanted to take a moment to recognize Martin for the incredible service he provides every single time we visit. From the moment we walk in, Martin makes us feel like family. He greets us with a smile, and somehow always remembers exactly how we like our food and drinks. He gets our order right every time, pays attention to the smallest details, and makes us feel genuinely valued as customers. What stands out most is that Martin doesn't just do his job well--he truly cares about people. He is warm, kind, attentive, and always goes the extra mile to make sure we have a wonderful experience. In today's world, that level of customer service is rare, and it deserves to be recognized. read more

Although, they changed how the chimichanga is made on the menu the waiter was kind enough to inform me that I could still order it the old way with shredded chicken. They immediately corrected the mistake of leaving out the grilled onions & peppers by giving me a side plate. Love the shrimp ceviche with the avocado on the side & some Serrano y limon added - they provided salt & pepper without me asking. read more

Mi Cocina - Great time with friends from work! - Mexican Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Went for lunch on a Wednesday. Not crowded at all. Clean modern environment. Service was outstanding!! Lunch specials are reasonably priced. Highly recommend the sunset chicken enchiladas. I modified it to have one of the enchiladas be cheese and onion. The chicken enchilada was good, but I liked the cheese and onion one better. Hard to find a lot of Mexican restaurants that put enough onions in their cheese enchiladas anymore. I think onions are going the way of peanuts on planes. Only criticism I have is that the Chips just did not have anywhere close to the flavor of the chips at the Mi cocina on Forest and Preston. For whatever reason the Chips at Forest and Preston taste homemade, while these at lunch tasted like they were store-bought out of a bag. Maybe a one time thing. Chips were a big deal so I hope they're better next time. read more

Service started out bad. Nobody came to our table after being sat for awhile. We waited until another waiter said current one is busy. Chips and salsa were great, we got some to go for free. I got Mama's chicken, and wifey got the enchiladas which were good too. The queso blanco was super bland though. Everything needed more salt, pepper. Ambiance is niceX we ate outside. Looks fancy inside. Jeans at least to wear. read more

Moved to Dallas, Texas in 2007 and one of my first dates with my wife was Mi Cocina. In the last 19 years, I believe we've been to nearly every Mi Cocina in the greater DFW area. While the vast majority of our experiences have been very good, this specific store (Richardson) is the very best: (1) excellent food: (2) servers are fast, efficient, friendly and menu knowledgeable; (3) bartenders consistently mix a great Cosmo for the Mrs.; (4) family friendly (nice separation for when we bring the grandkids); (5) clean, (6) managers at every level welcome guests and survey clientele regularly; and (7) catering/to go orders never disappoint. Success starts at the top, this General Manager, Liliana Marin has created an exceptional store. Job well! read more

Best customer service out of any Mi Cocina location in the DFW. I highly recommend. Super impressed.

I usually try to give places the benefit of the doubt, but my experience at Mi Cocina was frustrating from start to finish. I placed an order online, but when I arrived, the order was incorrect. When I asked a staff member for help and showed her the online menu, she snatched the bag from my hands and told me she didn't understand the online system. That interaction alone was very unprofessional and made me feel uncomfortable. I then spoke with a manager about getting a refund since the order still wasn't right, but unfortunately, I never received it. To make things worse, the server brought out the same container again and insisted the order had been fixed--but it clearly hadn't. At that point, I didn't even want the food anymore, but no one seemed willing to make it . This experience left me very disappointed. I hope the management takes this feedback seriously and improves both customer service and communication around online orders. read more

My fiancé and I aren't usually fans of Mexican food, but it was wonderful! The food was fresh and the portions are large for the price. The restaurant is clean and well-maintained as well. Our server was relatively inattentive (empty drinks, waiting a while to order), but everything else was wonderful. Edit: Docking one more star because we were charged almost TWENTY dollars for queso. We were charged more for queso than our actual food. read more

We have been coming to MiCo for year and have noticed the service at the location declining. Tonight we had Cameron as our server, and he was a GAME CHANGER. His service was next level and we felt like we were getting service at a fine dining place. He was friendly, and his attention to detail was next level. If you go there, ask for Cameron as your server. You can tell he really care about his job and the customers he serves. read more

great service great food mangers are all great my mother and puppy go every week and they never let us down

Celebrating at this location with friends and had an amazing time with great food! Ruben R. was our server and was exceptional! Amazing service! Will absolutely return. read more

Food is good, but they are always busy af, and you have to be a DoorDash driver for them to even look at you if you place a takeout order. Waited for 30 minutes before anyone even acknowledged my presence. I watched about 6 DoorDash drivers get their orders before me, and they all arrived after I did. And we tipped 20% on our takeout order. Idk if the owner is just too cheap or stupid to properly staff his restaurant or if he just doesn't care about his employees' well being and his customers' satisfaction. Probably both. read more

First time eating at this location. I was there with a group of friends celebrating a birthday. Our waiter came up, did not greet us, and took our drink orders. When we asked for refills on our drinks, he was extremely rude. He was snarky. We had been sitting there for quite awhile without refills. When the food arrived everyone at the table had lukewarm food. Our birthday girl had a balloon on her chair. He never once carried on any type of interaction with our group not even asking how was your food, whose birthday is, very cold and distant waiter. The only time he cracked a smile was when he was passing out our checks . We all agreed he was one of the worst waiter we've ever had. Will not be returning to this location. read more

We stopped by here for a quick lunch the other day and were not disappointed. The brisket tacos are very good here - chunky, tender pieces of brisket folded in to appropriately toasted corn tortilla with a hint of cheese and spicy salsa on the side. What's not to love? The rice that comes on the side is delicious and very flavorful, chock-full of herbs and deep flavor. Our server was polite and kind. He refilled our drinks quickly and was knowledgeable about the menu. Guacamole was also very good and chips were fresh. The outdoor seating area is nice and spacious and also covered so you're not fully exposed to the heat and sun. Great place for outdoor lunch or casual dinner with friends or family. read more

We were one of the first customers when you opened the Richardson location. Lupe and his team have brought us back day after day, week after week, year after year -we love this place! The food is great- and the the love that we receive from your staff means so much... from Carolina behind the bar, Areli, Manuel, and Martin- they all mean so much to us and it makes us come back here every week. We cannot recommend this place enough! read more

My experience at this location did not go as I had imagined. Our server Mr.Efrain was very friendly to those at my table, but was not as engaged with us compared to other tables around. A table that was seated roughly 15 minutes after us ordered before us, and we waited another 10 minutes before we were given the opportunity to order food. I ordered the beef enchiladas, and received chicken instead. I began to eat my enchiladas after finishing my sides, and was enjoying myself with those at my table, until I bit into a bone that was in my enchiladas. I did not finish my meal, and I proceeded to ask for the check. The atmosphere is good with many families and friends, but it can get very loud during busy hours with tables being so close to each other. I am hoping my next experience is not like this one if I were to try it again. read more

The foods are very delicious and better than I thought lol I really liked loads of cheese (tasted like swiss cheese) and fajita beef. The portion was generous which was great! They served quite fast too (for Sunday lunch). One thing that I disliked was the cleanliness of the restaurant. There were a few flies flying around when we ate. read more

Our experience was great here. The food was quite good (5 of us agreed ), And the service was excellent. It was busy, but there was no lack of attention. I was honestly surprised to see a 3 star rating. Might not be a true 5 star experience, but definately above average. "Karens" will be "Karens" and frequently vocal and always harshly judgmental. read more

It was pretty hard to find anything redeeming about the food at Mi Cocina. Like other reviewers said, the food here is dry and bland. Seriously, not a grain of salt detected on anything. Weirdest chips I've ever tasted. Cannot put my finger on it but they're not appetizing at all. Ordered guac to go with them, and while the portion is generous, the flavor is poor. There's just no taste but avocado. No onion, cilantro, lime, salt, nada. I was craving fajitas but seeing fellow Yelper pics of the onion basket the meat's served upon (like, how?) I ordered the brisket tacos instead and just could not believe how dry and boring they were. I poured salsa, guac, arroz verde, and salt on top to get something going. It was just so weak. My wife was shocked to see a Mexican restaurant have ONE burrito on the menu with NO description so I suggested the crispy chicken enchiladas verdes since it sounded similar to what I cook at home. What. A. Joke. They're not enchiladas. They're tiny, frozen taquitos! Then they just pour (once again) flavorless green sauce and a shameless squirt of crema on top and call it something worth paying for. She couldn't even finish it. Then there's their lime juice, err, their margaritas. No, it's juice. Where Mi Cocina lacks in salt for their food they overcompensate with sweetness for their margaritas. It was not worth finishing, but I did anyway because I figured if I at least chugged the bottom half I'd feel a little relaxed. But apparently the tequila is in some other margarita in some other restaurant. $9 juice. Then there's that irritated sigh of seeing a high-price bill for such poor culinary craftsmanship. That sealed any shot of giving Mi Cocina a second try. Surely any place will surpass them on all fronts. It really can't get worse. read more

Enchilada dinner with chips and salsa. The food was bland and the salsa tastes like stewed tomatoes with Mexican flavor. Their spicy was green seed salsa with nothing spicy any different from the stew tomatoes salsa. This was at one time a great Mexican restaurant but the food is bland and the prices are $$. Not a good experience. read more

Why? Why did I come back? It's been 2.5 hours and I'm still waiting on my bill. The food is as bad. The restaurant is empty and I'm still waiting. The food is marginal and I'll never make this mistake again. Worst experience ever. Turn away and go somewhere else. read more

Mi Cocina has jumped the shark, as in leaped-frogged it. I used to go all the time, various locations, back then (a good decade ago) it was always a place to go to get food that was a step up from Tex-Mex. A little bit higher league. Then, well before Covid, it was sliding, just not as good anymore. Tonight, wow, just sloppin' it out, no effort on any front. Food was tasteless, not to mention room temperature. A $12 skinny margarita is basically powdered mix with some tequila? I mean at least squeeze a lime or something. I had the 57 special to taste alot of things. Ground beef in the enchilada and taco was tasteless. How about a taco shell that is a step up from the grocery store? Nope. Tamale was OK but how bland can we get it? Everything, bland bland bland. I'm not asking for spicy hot, I'm asking for a few spices so I feel like I'm actually eating something not served in a cafeteria. It's sad, this place is a complete yawn and disappointment these days. UPDATE: Updating after the response from the management. The thing is, what I said is true of MANY places, especially in TexMex. The response is simply damage control on social media from the corporate parent. There will be ZERO change. If they wanted some change, they would ask and respond. It's just formula response, nothing more. If they wanted real feedback and action, they would ask specifically what to change. It's just BS to act like they're listening. read more

Good food and service, the waiters do great team work. The ambiance was also very nice and calm.

Great service, great food, great ambiance one of my favorite places to eat, servers are very friendly

This is by far the best Mi Cocina! We previously frequented a different location until about 3 years ago when we changed to the Campbell location. This location is not the closest to our house, but well worth the extra drive. We have never had a bad experience here. That says something since we have been going here once a week for over 3 years now. The food tastes better here! Always perfect! Also, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They really care about the customers experience. We highly recommend this location! read more

I went here in a Sunday afternoon just by chance. It was crowded which was to be expected but the service was pretty quick with all the customers that were there. I chose the spinach enchilada dinner with the expectation of the veggies being on the side. So I was skeptical once it came out but it was actually pretty good. read more
