Absolutely love this place! The food is always fresh, full of flavor, and the vibe is fun and laid-back. The real standout, though, is the service—Britt is incredible! She’s super friendly, attentive, and always makes you feel right at home. Her energy adds so much to the experience. One of our favourite spots in Cochrane—highly recommend!

Hands down, one of the best food spots in Cochrane! 🌮🔥
Cabeza Grande delivers BIG on flavour, vibes, and hospitality. Whether you're in the mood for fresh tacos, loaded nachos, or a margarita that hits just right — this place nails it. The ingredients taste fresh, the portions are generous, and every dish is packed with authentic, bold Mexican flavours. 🌶️🇲🇽
The team here knows how to create an atmosphere - vibrant, warm, and full of energy. From the first bite to the last sip, it’s a full-on experience. Huge shoutout to the staff - friendly, fast, and genuinely welcoming. 💯
If you haven't been yet, you're missing out. Cochrane's got a gem in Cabeza Grande. We’ll be back. Again and again. 🌟

Went in at opening and sat at the bar. Did not disappoint. Such great convo from the bartender/waitress. She was so awesome. And the food was so good. I wasn’t sure what to expect coming from out of town, but the food was 12/10 they have some awesome chef working back there. Just amazing.

Great little place in Cochrane. They have a patio so dogs are welcome and that was a nice touch. The service was phenomenal and they had 4.99$ drinks the day we were there. Food was good, not extremely authentic but still good non the less!

Brit was our wait staff and did an outstanding job... margaritas were awesome, food recommendations were spot on (definitely try the soup...we all had it and it was amazing!), and atmosphere was very comfortable. Highly recommend!

reviewed for our community paper, The Cochrane Post: rating: ★★★★★ First impression: very welcoming, comfortable, nice vibe, super friendly staff. You’ll have a good experience here because the food is good, fresh with quality ingredients and fair prices but it’s the staff that make it a great place and a memorable experience.
My stylist frequently orders from this restaurant and says the fish tacos are the best in town. I ordered a bean burrito, coleslaw, rice, of course an order of guacamole and chips and key lime pie. So good.
What I like most about this restaurant is the friendly vibe that you feel as soon as you walk in. It’s a nice open space with a bar, high top tables, regular tables and also a small patio. Good space for large groups.
The staff are outstanding – really great staff. Very welcoming, helpful and nice, comfortable, fun feeling like you’re visiting friends.
Large portions, really it’s enough for 2 meals or more, and the ingredients were fresh and flavourful. The Key Lime pie is brought in but it’s really good, light and not too heavy though it’s more like cheesecake than traditional key lime.

Went there for date night. Atmosphere is fine, maybe the drinks are better, but we will definitely will never be back for dinner. Food was super disappointing.
Food and wait staff were great. We happened to go during a playoff jockey game so it was a bit loud, which I would assume is not the case on no n game days.

Had a craving for some good tacos and Mexican food, and this place delivered!! We absolutely loved the atmosphere and vibes when we walked in. It was very welcoming and friendly. The service was top notch, very attentive and friendly, wanted to chat and get to know us. We ordered the guac and Mexican street corn ribs to start, and I kept saying that I wish I could rewind time and eat them both over again because of how delicious they were. I will be ordering those corn ribs again, but won't be sharing HA! They had a wide selection of tacos, and all three I tried were banging! We're new in the area and we truly can't wait to go back! Thanks for having us, and see you again real soon!

Just had a great meal with tacos and taco combo plate. And it’s margarita monday ! Bulldog margarita was fantastic. This is not Taco Bell junk but really good quality food with proper seasoning and portions. Will definitely be back

The staff is amazing. We have a toddler and they are always so kind to him, even giving him stickers which he loves, they also let him play with them and are always kind and super kid friendly. We really appreciate that they accommodate gluten free needs and still provide delicious meals. They also offer great food options specifically for toddlers. We are very happy with the care and attention they provide.
