Surroundings are bright, colorful and stylishly contemporary at this popular local chain. This particular Mi Cocina outpost is also a favorite among Highland Park's beautiful people, so expect air-kisses all-around from the exquisitely turned out crowd. Still, down-to-earth devotees of Tex-Mex will be comforted to find all their favorite entrees on the menu -- enchiladas, fajitas and wonderful crunchy tacos. But you'll also find more adventurous selections like the Queso Con Hongos, a popular appetizer consisting of mushrooms surrounded by melted peppery cheese and served with tender tortillas. The food is served in generous portions that burst with flavor -- no blandness here. And while most of us are content with the typical appearance of Tex- Mex -- a large, hot platter piled with mounds of food and covered with melted cheddar cheese -- Mi Cocina pays careful attention to presentation with plates of food that are colorful and artfully arranged. Service is typically efficient and friendly. Once you're seated, it's not unusual to have your drink and food within 15 minutes. Children are welcome, though many prefer to leave the little one's at home and linger at the see-and-be-seen upstairs bar. -- Becky Belew

    I have eaten at several of the Mi Cocina Restaurants in the Dallas Metroplex area..including Plano. I have found that the consistency isn't there...it can be good at one restaurant...and not so good at another one...guess that depends on the employees and management. The service at times is really very slow....

  • BEST by FAR...service...food...atmosphere

    Best frozen margaritas and guacamole I've ever had and I live in the land of Tex-Mex. Excellent service as well.

    I love their food....never had a bad experience with anything I have ordered there. What i feel the resturant is lacking is good service. Everytime i eat there i feel rushed out. If you have a rest. with a awesome patio, expect to have people sitting there for a bit having a few drinks...dont bring the check half way through dinner and not even ask if they are finish. Very annoying!

  • Love The Service and Food

  • Not Bad, But not the Best

    Review rating : 3out of 5   riveraarnie - 01/11/2007

    I've eaten at least at 3 different locations and the food is upscale, particular the beef tacos al carbon,but over the years I've noticed it has become more commercialized, then the personal service given 5 years ago.
    Definite Good, but not Great.
