We have been here a number of to es and their food is always on point. Came for dinner on a weeknight. We had nachos with shredded chicken which is definitely shareable. They give large portions. We also had our favorite soup - caldo don Jose and it was plentiful that we took half of it home. We tried the chile verde on street tacos. It was yummy!

I ordered ground beef enchiladas and ground beef taco. I told her ground beef every thing l. They was really busy, and the restaurant was loud, she told me go to my car and call in and order. I got home 15 minutes away from the the restaurant and noticed my enchiladas was not right. I called and she said, I didn't specify so she assumed chicken and if I brought the food back they will remake, I got a ride there totally messed my dinner up and didn't make things right, I won't eat there again. She said she was the supervisor wow.

It's my favorite place for Mexican food. The cost for dinner and drinks is very reasonable.

I had been here once before Covid and couldn't remember my impression, but my wife did, and she was humoring me. Opens 4pm--8pm, we arrived 5:30 on a Tuesday. The bar was busy and a few tables had a few customers. She ordered the Chicken Tortilla Soup-- SALTY! and the chicken wasn't tender. Ordered the Chips and Salsa and additional Guacamole($6.99). The Guac was more mashed avocado than Guacamole-- no flavor. I squeezed the lemon slices from our waters and with some salt and pepper it was more tolerable. Chips were fresh and I liked the roasted salsa-- but, no spice. The Spanish Rice wasn't hot and would have tasted better. The beans were hot as well as the Enchiladas and Tamales-- but again, the chicken wasn't tender. My wife looked at the double-wrapped Beef Taco and the perfect- sized shells looked and tasted store-bought. She ate one third and put it down. I tried a few bites and the beef was flavorless and cold and I couldn't eat it. The restaurant should come with a disclaimer: "We do not season our food, use chili powder, or use Chile's usually associated with Mexican cuisine." Now I remember the restaurant, $60 too late. We left food on the table. The Server was nice and professional but no name tag to recognize her.

started with the top shelf margarita that was made to perfection and definitely strong enough for only one to get a nice buzz. after going an entire week without eating meat, I was pleasantly surprised by the flavor and the grilled to perfection fajitas with the shrimp and steak not to mention those caramelized onions... I didn't even use the tortillas it was so well flavored and delicious! I'll be back.

Cocina Medina is one of the BEST Mexican Restaurants to eat. My husband and I at least go 3x a month. The food is always on point and the serving amount is . Service is always fast and I love that.

Food: below average unfortunately. We ordered chile verde and Camerones a la Diabla. Chile Verde was bland and basic. I felt I could've gotten it from a can from the grocery store. Camarones were decently spicy but you could tell the shrimp were not cooked in the sauce. Chips and salsa are $1.99. This was very off putting. Salsa was mediocre. Service: A+ Our server was very sweet and capable. Ambiance: B+ It was a Friday evening and the place was lively. The decor is fun. It smelled great when we walked in but the actual food was disappointing.

Delicious food and fabulous service, every time! Sometimes crowded but filled with hungry people and lots of families. The servers will always make your experience enjoyable.
