Jennifer was our server. She was totally AWESOME! She was polite, attentive, very knowledgeable and made sure we had everything we needed from the time we sat down until we left. She gave 5 star service. read more

I had the pleasure of being served by Jennifer at Mi Casina, and I just have to say her customer service was absolutely outstanding! From the moment we arrived, Jennifer was warm, attentive, and made sure every detail of our dining experience was perfect. She was friendly, professional, and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. It's rare to come across someone who genuinely cares about providing exceptional service, but Jennifer truly does. Her positive attitude and dedication made our meal even more enjoyable. If you visit Mi Casina, I highly recommend asking for Jennifer--you won't be disappointed! Thank you, Jennifer, for making our visit such a wonderful experience. We will definitely be back! read more

Have been to Mi Cocina three times and have always sat at the bar and ordered the lunch menu chicken fajitas. The service is very good and the fajitas and the fixins that come with it are enough to make three tacos at least. You get some tender white meat chicken, guac, pica, rice, beans and potato wedges. Really good. I'll be back! read more

You simply can't find a better environment in Rockwall! Thurman is an awesome leader, Linda, Luis and Nina make it the best environment! Hugo loves everyone! This is the best location in Rockwall! I just wish MiCo corporate would improve the patio like they have in so many other MiCos! read more

Mi Cocina is one of the few restaurants originating in Dallas and, at least in my opinion, is the Standard for Tex Mex food. That said, the he restaurant in Rockwall is substandard both in food preparation and service for the restaurant group and makes me want think that the name is being leased. If not, I would expect the M Crowd to bring it up to par. read more

My husband and I visited here a couple of days ago. We are traveling with our pet and were pleased to find out that the patio is pet friendly and heated to boot! I had the fajitas sunset style, and my husband had sunset enchiladas. We both enjoyed our meals. Jennifer (our server) was fantastic!!! 10 out of 10. If I'm out here again, I'll be sure to ask for her. read more

Mi Cocina is one of those local spots you can always count on. I had the Tacos de Brisket on flour with rice & side salad ~ juicy and flavorful as always. The chips and hot sauce are easily in my top 10 favorites anywhere! I sat at the bar, and the service was good. The atmosphere is warm and inviting with genuine Spanish music playing in the background. Always a reliable go-to for great food, good service, and that classic Mi Cocina vibe. I only give HONEST and TRUE Reviews from the Heart. Thank you for taking the time to read it & react to it. read more

We love our Mi Cocina family. Nancy is always on point!!! As well as all of our other favorites that treat us like family!

Excellent food and outstanding service! Do not miss the opportunity to come here. Our server Nancy was incredible!

Nicely decorated but really dark and kinda sad atmosphere. Food was ok but I've had better at the other locations, wife got the steak nachos and I got the lunch special #5. Chicken was really dry and the steak on the nachos was chewy. Wife had a Mambo Taxi Drink and she stated that the location in Frisco makes them way better. Our waitress Bianca was awesome and very friendly. read more

Mi Cocina - Kinda thought this was high for two people at lunch but we also had the drinks. - Mexican Near Me - Rockwall, Texas

We have been to this location multiple times, but this time we had Hugo as our bartender. From the moment we walked in he was so friendly & welcoming! He had a smile on his face & gave specific drink suggestions that were amazing!! He listened to our modifications & our food came out absolutely PERFECT! There was also a very unpleasant & difficult guest sitting next to us that Hugo handled very professionally & respectfully. Kudos to him! We will definitely be back to see him!! read more

Love the atmosphere, great service & food was good. Bathrooms were clean too. The wait was not long

Mi Cocina's has always been dependable, flavorful and fresh Tex-Mex. For years it's been the only place I would constantly get a margarita when visiting, but they have made a totally unneeded change. No more salting the rim instead they now salt one side of the glass????? Now I guess you lick the side of the glass or your hand that is now full of salt. Makes zero sense read more

Mi Cocina - Salty, one-sided glass - Mexican Near Me - Rockwall, Texas

Having a rough day, going into Mi Cocina, had chicken fajitas, amazing, last time I had them the chicken was precooked and cold, this time it was perfect, the chicken being good is important to me as I'm not a big fan of rice, beans or tortillas, , I do like the salsa, guacamole and pico. Thankful for my lunch today, sorry my photo was after I had eaten. Shoulder of taken before. The fajitas are only 20$ great serving size, only down fall, was a broken light too bright, drunk woman cussing, luckily she moved to finish her next cocktail, then things were sweet, then man with too much cologne oh my , whyyyyy?? Anyway, service was wonderful, read more

We love Linda when she works! She takes care of us like family! We come here a few times a week.

Great establishment, we go here often. Extremely consistent food and service. Bit pricy but worth it.

TL: DR: Luis is an amazing waiter and made our Father's Day really great! My family had such a great experience at Mi Cocina today. And it was ALL about the service. I've always felt the food at Mi Cocina is white people Mexican food. But for that, it's pretty good. But let me tell you about the service today. Holy hell. If waiters got raises or promotions, I'd be trying to talk to this dude's boss. I THINK his name was Luis, and he might have been one of the best waiters I've ever had. I lived in Mexico for quite a while, and the service in Mexico usually puts the service in the US to shame. But this was just outstanding service, better than I've gotten in Michelin Rates Mexican restaurants. First of all, my Spanish sucks. So I always want to practice every chance I get. I told Luis (I really wish I was sure of the name) that I needed practice, he told me that I would have to order for the whole table. And then he pretty much quit speaking English for the whole meal. My siblings speak Spanish so they were teasing me about mine, but he would guide me or correct me in a super friendly, even funny way. He was so much fun. Let me also state that his English was without even a touch of an accent. So it's not like it was easier for him to speak Spanish (it might have been, but probably not really.) He was just being that nice. But even without the Spanish lesson, he was great. My 70 year old mother has lots of dietary restrictions. I relayed them to him and he stood there for a minute discussing with her ways she could change dishes to suit her needs. It worked out, she LOVED her enchiladas and they had nothing on them she couldn't have. She never takes food home, and she took half her meal home so she must have loved it. I lamented that I couldn't have one of the amazing margaritas that everyone else was having because I had a long drive and also didn't want to be drunk at the gym. So you know what he did? He made me one to go. (It's delicious, Oh Em Gee!) Nothing on our table ever got empty. Not our chips. Not our salsa. Not our waters. Not their margaritas. Nothing. The service was absolutely exceptional. He was also kind of a ninja. My tea appeared out of nowhere (like half a second after I asked for it) and refilled magically as well. All in all, the food was okay but the service was just great. read more

We ordered a beef rico salad and chicken nachos. Our food was great and our server Jennifer was wonderful!

Our server Tadeo was absolutely amazing. His service skills are outmatched! He was quick with our order and we never had to ask for anything he knew exactly when to bring refills and boxed up all our leftovers too. The food was great and I definitely will be coming back. Thank you so much Tadeo for your hard work! read more

Been coming here since its inception. Food is always good and usually the service is good. No problems there. But the prices? Oh my! Biden-inflation! C'mon man! I'm not joking. 21.45 lunch fajitas 7.95 cup queso (not bowl) 8.95 cup bean soup (not bowl) 8.95 cup tortilla soup (not bowl) 21.95 fajita nachos 12.00 margs For what you get...too expensive for my blood. I'm going back to my old tex mex go/to place. Adios. read more

Great food and awesome service by Daniel! He took great care of us as we celebrated birthdays! Daniel was the best server!

Had lunch there today with my BFF. The food was great and our waiter Jesse was a 12 out of 10. He was wonderful can't wait to go back!

Don't come here on Saturday at noon! Every seat was taken, it was buzzing like a high school cafeteria, and waitstaff was stressed to their limits. If every parking space is taken already, keep driving, that is the sign... The venerable, and stalwart Mi Cocina of Rockwall, TX has been a local watering hole for 2 generations, now they bring a 3rd. Successful. As you walk inside, the dimmed lighting, and rich wood tones, and comfy booths let you relax. I could not count all the seating, seemed like 80? All that said, this meal was on level with Arboledas, and lately, even they have struggled. The kitchen is to blame, also their managers, and the owners. Just a little bit of true leadership, with the strength to make changes in the kitchen, and this can all be cured. Make a menu for seniors, that they can read in the dim lighting inside Mi Cocina. Many of us are caring for elderly family members. Maybe look at menus in the lobby, which has good lighting, then proceed to the table. read more

First of all our Waitress Alicia was amazing! 5+ stars for her. This was our first visit and it was for our 9th wedding anniversary. Alicia was so helpful and knowledgeable with the menu for suggestions. We got the chicken tacos and the chimichanga. So much food. Plus they gave us a free appetizer. Got the strawberry margarita and they are great. Definitely made the right choice for our anniversary dinner. read more

"My husband and I went for an early dinner, and unfortunately, they did not have a true gluten-free meal. I asked twice whether they had gluten-free tacos, and I was told they did. However, they heated up the corn tortillas alongside the flour ones, and the seasoning on the meats could not be guaranteed to be gluten-free. I was informed of this after the fact, and I ended up sick for days." read more

Timothy M was my waiter this morning. he was very friendly, provided excellent customer service, and was so personal. he recommended guacamole and it was so fresh. I can always trust that the service will be 5 star when Timothy is waiting on my family. He is a star employee. Makes the cost of eating out not hurt so bad when people make the staff make the antmosphere enjoyable. Erica C - Rockwall read more

Why not start the new years with a yummy meal out. It was our first time out and wasn't sure what to expect based on reviews so figured it was time to try. It was a quiet evening and was quickly sat. Our server, Jake, was so professional and friendly. We ordered the guac and chili con queso (I meant queso Blanco but I am still learning to specify). Personally, I think the quac needed some more flavor and of course I wanted Blanco.... So I was a bit worried. But, from there on out everything was fantastic. He had the handmade marg and I had some kind of drink with grapefruit. Both yummy. But the winner was the bacon wrapped shrimp. Wow. Fantastic. Next time, we are ordering two! He then got the shrimp fajitas, sunset style. Plenty of shrimp and cooked perfectly. Next time he said hed get it normal style but sunset sauce on the side. I got the change... Wowser. That thing was huge and chicken so moist. I ate it for dinner and lunch. We both decided we will be back soon. What a great meal to start the new year. (Only giving 4 stars due to guac and chili con queso... Next time, skipping those and guaranteed an 5 star!) read more

This place is a must visit. I am a regular at this location. I don't go for just one topic I go for the whole experience. The ambiance, food, service, drinks. We sit at the bar typically unless we have the grand kids with us. But anytime we go, the relationship we have built with the staff and management is irreplaceable. I give this place every bit of 5 stars. I'm not saying they don't make mistakes now and then (VERY few and far between) but they will do their absolute best to make sure it is right and that you have a pleasant experience before you leave. Therman is a wonderful manager and is 100% involved in every aspect of the business. I absolutely love ALL my bartenders that serve us. Their attention and service are top notch and professional. We've been going here for years and will continue to do the same for many more. Have a blessed day everyone. read more

Mi Cocina - Fajita 50/50. No flavor. Not even salt helped. Queso blanco was bad too. - Mexican Near Me - Rockwall, Texas

We have been going there for years, average, once or twice a week. We live an hour and 1/2 away from the location. I ordered fajitas to go. When we got home. There was only 3 corn tortillas, no cheese and no sour cream included. They also added potato wedges to the fajitas. What is that? Are you cutting down on the amount of fajitas meat? To go orders be ware, check your order before leaving. Very disappointed. read more

Couldn't tell you how the food tasted because our waitress (lady with glasses, we sat by the area the staff placed the orders on the wall) hadn't brought out our queso or taken our food order in about 20 minutes of us sitting there after place our drink and appetizer order. Terrible servicer Hostesses were nice and professional Place was nice and clean. read more

I think a Tex-Mex restaurant's flagship menu item should be their queso and salsa, that said "Mi Covina's queso is the most god awful canned soup crap I have ever eaten"! The salsa was not bad but all I will remember is that it was crushed tomatoes with a nice heat to it. How can you mess up fajitas? There was no seasoning on the meat and the onions and peppers were more steamed than seared and also season-less. Blah The salsa chips were good, but good chips does not a good meal or experience make! Really nice ambiance, you'd never know the kitchen couldn't produce good food. read more
