" I've been wanting to try Cocina Oaxaquena for ages, and it was an incredible experience! The moment I walked in, the vibrant decor embraced me with a welcoming feel. The food? Out of this world! I went for the barbacoa taco and was stunned by the perfect combination of flavors. The meat was tender, and paired excellently with the homemade salsa. Though the service was a bit slow – I'll chalk it up to being busy – it was friendly and accommodating. The generous portions are worth every penny, and I can't wait to return soon!

The moment I stepped in, the atmosphere reminded me of my trips to Mexico with charming decor that blends well with the delicious smells wafting from the kitchen.

The service was attentive without being overwhelming, allowing us to savor every bite. If you’re looking for a genuine taste of Mexico, this is the place to go. I'll definitely be coming back!
