" I've dined here a couple of times, and it's consistently great! Love the green chili dishes, and the service is usually top-notch. The atmosphere is casual and friendly. I tend to order the combination plate, which never disappoints. You won't regret choosing this restaurant! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cocina De Dominguez was a pleasant surprise. The ambiance was warm and inviting, blending traditional elements. I enjoyed their enchiladas with red chile sauce, and the flavors were spot on. The service was friendly, though a bit busy, which is understandable. It's a good value for the money! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely brunch at Cocina De Dominguez. We ordered their famous pozole and it did not disappoint! Full-bodied flavor and perfect balance of spices in every bite. The waitstaff was super attentive and the environment was warm. It’s a hidden treasure in Gallup that I wish I'd found sooner! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was utterly disappointed during my last visit to Cocina De Dominguez. I had heard so many good things and was expecting an authentic New Mexican feast. The food was subpar; my enchiladas were lukewarm, and the rice tasted instant, which is unacceptable for a place like this. The service was also lacking; we waited ages for our order to be taken, and the staff seemed overwhelmed. I might give it another chance, but I'm not sure. Disappointing! " (*Curated Review*)

" I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Cocina De Dominguez. The food was rich in flavor, and you could tell they used fresh ingredients. The green chili was the perfect level of spice for me. However, I did notice that the service slowed down a bit when it got busy. I had to wait longer than expected for the check. Overall, it was still a great dining experience, and I would recommend it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cocina De Dominguez has quickly become my favorite dining spot in Gallup. I recently treated myself to their carne avodovada, and it was the best version I've encountered in the area. The blend of flavors was delightful. The waitstaff was attentive, ensuring our drinks were full at all times. It’s a cozy environment perfect for family dining. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for savory New Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" An underwhelming experience. The food did not live up to the hype for me. The chili relleno was bland, and the service lacked warmth. I wanted to enjoy it, but it just felt like another chain restaurant in disguise. The prices seemed higher as well for what I received. Won't be back. " (*Curated Review*)
