4/5 food 3.5/5 service 4/5 overall value of dollar spend 4/5 ambiance (patio) A group of friends chose this restaurant due to its good reviews and proximity to the state capital. Not pictured were tacos, shrimp quesadillas and everyone in our group was happy with the food quality. The service was good and complimentary hibiscus drink refill was a welcome surprise. We liked this restaurant location within the community. Service was friendly and pleasant. I would recommend if in the area to patronize.
Stopped here on my lunch break from work and even though the line was out tbe door service was fast! The waitress took orders from people standing in line to get us served even faster. I just went with street tacos and my friend had a quesadilla. The cucumber refresher was delicious. Would definitely go back again and spend more time when I'm not on the clock.
Tostada de mole you get 3 for $18 You get vey little mole , 2 pieces of chicken mixed in It lacked salt Fish tacos were ok Got red and green salsa with chips $6.00 each not impressed They had no ceviche and no carnitas this was at 1 pm The young lady takn orders didn't seem to happy Parking is rough . Make sure you pay for your parking. Don't park in front parking lot lot Youl get a $85 ticket
I need to talk about how it.. how is this place not more popular? Did I stumble into a secret hidden gem or what?? OMG Cocina is nestled in the middle of an apartment complex! It was so cute walking up to it and seeing that there are also other businesses in this bottom retail space. We came in for lunch and devoured our foood and drinks. Everyone was so nice and there was a decent amount of seating! We ordered guacamole as an appetizer, chicken tacos and enchiladas. The enchiladas were my favorite I over that I got a difference sauce for each one (red, green and mole) I'll be seeing more of this place!
The food was amazing and fresh. Everyone was so nice and helpful. Definitely worth the drive to come and try!
Decided to try this place for Cinco de Mayo. Service was friendly and location was close to work, but sadly, that's all the compliments I can give. I ordered the chicken enchilada plate that comes with a side of rice. I modified the order to not include cilantro and no sour cream. That means no salsa and I got all red sauce and no green sauce since the green sauce is blended with cilantro. The red sauce tasted very tomato bisque-like. It would have been good with a grilled cheese sandwich. Like another reviewer noted, the chicken in the enchilada comes as little diced cubes and was overcooked and dry. My bad for expecting shredded chicken. Others in my party also noted lack of flavor in their chicken burrito and shrimp burrito and weak drinks (margaritas). We tried to like this place, but it missed the mark.
The chicken taco salad was made with tiny diced chicken. Taco Bell kind of quality. Meh I asked for carbonated water and they offered me tap, then I pointed right behind her at it. No salsa offered, when I asked they said "what kind"? I said "red" not having any idea what they had. Meh I spent about $18 w the tip. This is a Mexican restaurant? No bueno. Nice music tho.
Overall, this place was really good. The vibe is super nice when you come in. The employees were super nice and friendly. The food was really good and had a lot of flavor. Definitely, will be coming again.
Superb Mexican restaurant in downtown Sacramento across from the CNRA. In the area for a conference, I had parked all day at the multistory parking lot nearby. I decided to get an early dinner before driving back to the Bay Area. Very happy I did. There was no line when I got there a few minutes after 5. I ordered three tacos - al pastor, carne asada, and carnitas - as I wanted something light, and was pleasantly surprised that it only cost $6!!! I sat at an indoor table instead of at the counter or outdoors (it was chilly), relaxing after a long day, eagerly waiting for my meal. I people watched as I waited, and waited, and waited some more. There was a boisterous 20-person office party seated outside, another 6 person ladies-only group, plus a couple of to-go customers ahead of me. Nevertheless, I didn't expect it to take almost an hour to be served! When the food did arrive, I was irritable and famished. But all was forgiven the moment I bit into my first taco - the al pastor. OMG. It was a taste of taco heaven!!! I dispatched it quickly, and then dug into the carne asada and carnitas tacos. They were also superb. Complex flavors, just the right proportion of meat to veggies, with a deliciously tangy sauce! I will be certainly be back for more OMG Cocina deliciousness next time I'm in Sactown!
First time checking out OMG Cocina and it did not disappoint! I ordered the chicken taco plate and was shocked with how much food came out for $15, it was quite the feast and absolutely delicious! The flavor of the tacos was delicious and the baked cheese on the shells was a yummy touch. Will certainly be back when in the area!

OMG Cocina! Finally, a restaurant whose name doubles as the review. The food is fucking wonderful. Five stars, enthusiastically awarded, with absolutely no intention of forming a committee to reconsider. Now, a word for the recreational critics--the people who approach dinner with the warmth of a building inspector and the literary ambitions of a rejected novelist. You are reviewing a meal. Please stop writing the prosecution's closing argument at The Hague. Of course, tastes differ. You are entitled to yours. But if your principal pleasure in dining out is composing the complaint afterward, consider staying home and disappointing yourself. The commute is shorter. OMG Cocina deserves a standing ovation. I'm doing mine in writing because standing up interrupts the eating. Go. Eat. Enjoy something. Allow happiness to occur without demanding to speak to its manager. Five stars. Yelp's failure to provide a sixth is an administrative matter beyond my control. read more

Hidden downtown gem! Authentic, delicious, and genuinely welcoming! I was hungry, craving a burrito, and Googled places within walking distance. That's how I found OMG Cocina, and I'm so glad I gave it a try! I loved the cozy, homey feel tucked away on the ground floor of a residential building in the heart of downtown. The lady at the counter was so friendly and helpful, quickly understood what I wanted, and had my food ready with a smile. I took it back to the office expecting just a burrito. Then I opened the bag and was pleasantly surprised! A great sized burrito with El Pastor and Carnitas, two different salsas, two sauces, and crispy chips with that authentic fresh flavor. I didn't have to ask for anything. They included it all! The food was flavorful and filling, and the value was fantastic. They also have cozy indoor seating and a charming outdoor area with a little garden feel. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu and enjoy the full experience next time. Great food, great service, great vibe! read more

This Instagram ready minority family owned place just turned one on 12/26/23. I do have to admit it is a little hidden from the street. There is public parking all around, don't forget to pay on the app or at the kiosk. Our server was so friendly and was the son of one of the owners. He and his mother are so proud of their place. The verdes and Rojas sauce for the chilaquiles are made in house. I found my verdes chilaquiles was excellent! The sauce was flavorful, the eggs were perfectly cooked and the potatoes were spiced nicely. The large plate was hard to finish but I tried! The pozole was perfect on this rainy day, it was generous in the ingredients. The cheese dip with the chips was ok, not spicy so I would suggest adding chorizo or jalapeño. They have a beer and wine license so they serve micheladas rimmed with tajin, yum! I had the pineapple cucumber Agua Fresca was delicious. We hope to return and give this family more business. read more

Green chicken pozole Green pozole is quite rare in Sacramento, so I wanted to try it. It's not worth it. The broth had no flavor; I didn't taste the tomatillo, chilis, or chicken broth. There are no complex and strong flavors that pozole is known for. The chicken and broth taste like they weren't stewed together but cooked separately. The chicken tasted pre-cooked, and then broth was added when served. Adding the oregano, cabbage, lime, and reddish did not help it. There were barely any hominy: one every 3rd bite. The portion size is quite small as well for $15. Usually, it fills up 2 people, but it is only enough for 1 person. Al Pastor Taco You can taste the quality of the pastor, but it just didn't have enough oil or spices. It was alright. read more
This is one of our favorite lunch spots for in office days. They get busy during the lunch hour so expect a line. Service is pretty quick and the food is delicious! I would recommend the shrimp or fish tacos. So good!! Also, they have cute decor inside for photo ops read more
I visited this restaurant on a Monday evening. It was not busy and is located in a living complex. The staff was inconsistent with service. The waitress who initially assisted provided my table with the happy hour menu and the regular menu. The waiter who took our order did not want to honor the happy hour menu stating that it is no longer happy hour. After checking in with another staff, they honored any orders from the happy hour menu. The water needed to be filtered better. There is indoor and outdoor seating available. The food was just okay. I tried the street tacos, guacamole with chips, and nachos with chicken. The street tacos had an ample amount of meat, but was lacking in seasoning and flavor. There was just a small dollop of a a red sauce. The asada was too chewy. The tacos came with a wedge of lime and two thin slices of radish. It could use avocado sauce and more cilantro. The guacamole needed more salt. The chicken nachos were decent. read more

just moved to downtown sac from sf a couple weeks ago, and none of the places i've eaten at since i've moved have impressed me as much as this place has. so far i've had the horchata, breakfast burrito (chorizo & honey bacon), carne asada burrito, & the al pastor, shrimp, and fish tacos. not once have i left dissatisfied or disappointed. i grew up in san jose & have spent some time in mexico city, so i think it's reasonable to say i know what good mexican food tastes like, and this place absolutely satisfies in that regard. not to mention, the prices are very reasonable for how good the food is. on top of the delicious food & good service, it's also a family-owned business, which i always prefer to support rather than giving my money to a faceless chain or corporate establishment (sorry del taco, it's not you, it's me). anyway i give this place a 5/5; i'm very fortunate to have this hidden gem of a restaurant literally right outside my apt complex. read more

Absolutely delicious! Ordered their street tacos (chicken, beef, and shrimp) - all came out tasting wonderful. Special call out for their shrimp street taco!! I wish I lived nearby and could have this weekly. Great outdoor seating too! Nice staff. read more
Loved the service and loved the food. I had walked passed the day before and the smells coming from the kitchen made me come back the next day and order. I had a carnitas burrito and it was so very good as were their sides and chips. I had the pineapple cucumber aqua fresca and it was so so good. It is tucked away but worth seeking out. read more

I ordered takeout from this spot on a Thursday for lunch and the environment is live and the energy is really uplifting right when you walk in, it's creative and clean. Staff are nice and attentive, welcoming me right away. I tried 2 mole enchiladas and 1 red salsa enchilada plate, the flavors were good and the portion size was okay, but not filling. We also tried the taco plate, we like how they pineapple pieces inside, it adds good flavor. I would say this place is really pricey for the quality and portion size of the plates- it was over $40 for 2 plates and an horchata. read more

We came here for my son's UC Davis graduation celebration. I had called a couple weeks ahead to reserve a table for 14, but we had to add a couple people last minute and they were super kind about it. We ended up getting there way early but again they were really nice and said we could just take the big table outside whenever we wanted. It was perfect! The food was delicious as were the drinks, and it worked in our favor that we had to order at the counter and they brought it to us because we were all able to pay for our respective families without having to split a tab and we could just order as people got there. They brought my son a congratulations churro which was super sweet. It is a small-ish, family owned place and I loved the vibe. They were so helpful and just thoughtful and even though it was super busy you could tell they were all working hard to get the orders out in a timely manner. Thank you Apollo and Sarahi for making this day amazing for me and my family!! read more

OMG Cocina offers a small and simple menu that works for the fast pace downtown area. With the large amount of people in a rush, they were serving out plates fast and providing excellent customer service. I was a little disappointed with the portion sizes as I personally don't see the justification in the prices. My lunch came out to over $60 with what is shown and two Agua frescas. I'd recommend going a little further to Cilantro's where the portions are bigger, the prices are cheaper, and you can get complementary chips and salsa. It was nice to try this place since it's so close to work, but will unfortunately not come back. read more

In my search for the best chicken enchiladas verde this is my new #1! Chicken was tinder, right amount of cheese. Green sauce had a tang to remember and sprinkled with cheese. Loved the tomatillo salsa and chips were the perfect balance of holding salsa without being too hard. It was worth the wait. Felt very fresh. I will be returning!! read more
