On the expensive side and the price is not clear on the menu...but the food's great and the service is great. And I will go again just watch what I order more careful so it cost less.

What an incredible experience! The restaurant was spotless, welcoming, and full of charm. The staff was attentive and friendly, and the food was absolutely delicious—beautifully prepared and full of flavor. Every dish was clearly made with care, and the atmosphere made it all the more enjoyable.
A special mention goes to the photographer, who did an amazing job capturing the moment. The photos were professional, creative, and truly brought out the warmth of the experience. It made the evening feel even more memorable.

Have no idea where these 5 stars are coming from! Just pass altogether as there are way better places to eat Mexican food in Sac.
We went as a party of 4 around 4pm on a Saturday in the summer heat. We walked up to what looks cute and aesthetic. We waited for 5 minutes at the host booth outside for someone to greet us and figured well let's check if it's okay to sear ourselves. As soon as we opened the door the arrogant waiter said to go back outside and wait as he didn't have time to seat us yet. That should've been our sign to leave. But we waited and he came asked if we prefer inside or outside. We asked if AC was on inside and he said yes. It was hotter inside than outside so I was drippin sweat trying to enjoy dinner. We asked the waiter a few questions and he seemed bothered. Maybe because he was stressed he was the only one waiting on tables for the entire place. Luckily there weren't many people there.
Food and drinks were all below standard. I ordered the cucumber marg it was terrible. Lacked a balance of flavor to alcohol. The tequila used overpowered the cucumber. The old fashion my husband ordered was fine and my friends pineapple drink was all juice. He forgot my mom's ice tea and she asked to switch to an horchata instead since they hadn't poured it yet. My mom ordered an horchata which was bland without sweetener.
The food arrived promptly so they deserve a star for the quickness from ordering to having the food out.
We ordered:
Chips and Salsa - good salsa very mild and expected.
Queso fundido - was like velveta cheese or nacho cheese. They say 3 cheese blend but not even the chorizo can hide the fake cheese flavor. Our fault as I assumed it'd have queso Oaxaca as they quote all over their menu where the recipe is from. Guess they know better on that. 1/10
Torta de Milanesa - which was a pork chop fried. Absolutely not milanesa as a milanesa is a pork cutlet pounded thin and fried. 2/10
Enchiladas verdes with chicken - the tortilla seemed straight from the bag and warmed in the micro then a lil sauce thrown on top. They were very dry. Least they had a little spice. 3/10
Pozole rojo - least that came with a lot of meat and was standard with flavor. We asked for spicy salsa as usually you get Chile de aceite to add which it didn't come with. The waiter said he had Chile de arbol so we expected to get a salsa with heat but nope. 5/10
Combo plate with Chile relleno and tamal - this plate was served with black beans and rice. The rice was decent. Beans had zero flavor and it would've been nice to have an option for an alternative. The chile relleno and tamal were smothered in an orange sauce which drowned any flavor as it reminded me of a sauce made with a base of chef boyarde tomato. The chile relleno looked like it was made with chile poblano which is a great start but don't smother it in a horrible sauce. The tamal probably would've been good if it didn't have the sauce on it. 3/10
Lastly, the waiter's arrogance with the heat was a complete souring. I would give more stars had the customer service been great. However, never complain about customers in front of other customers. (The waiter was a short older man)
What's also with a 3% kitchen staff fee?! Since when do you not price your food to pay your staff accordingly or require the waiters to split a percentage from their tips. Especially after the waiter justifying why chips and salsa are no longer free as the work and ingredients that go into it have to be paid.
Disclosures: I am Mexican and have traveled all over Mexico. Never have I ever tried these so called authentic flavors or been so disappointed. Being an avid cook who makes food from scratch they definitely need to revisit recipes and products they're using. Too bad as I really wanted to find a new place that has great drinks and food.

Had a working lunch with four meat eaters today and one of them selected this place taking into consideration my preferences. The menu still consists of two vegan options as stated in the description: potato tacos and vegan enchiladas. I had the enchiladas. Very fast service. Food was good. Outdoor dining and good atmosphere in the middle of the day. Weather was perfect. Forgot to take my picture of the food until I was halfway done. I wouldn’t come here exclusively for the vegan options by any means, but this place offers a good compromise so you can still hang out with others. The rest of my table was very happy with their selections. 
Nice outdoor area where we ate, drinks were great, and service for food was very fast!

If I could give it a star, I would, because the food is horrible. The mole had no salt, the tortilla soup with chicken had no salt, the vegetables were overcooked, they melted in your mouth, there was no chicken, and the tortilla was raw. That's why I debuted and said goodbye, never to return. And then they charge you 3% for the kitchen tip. Goodbye and see you never again...

La Cosecha is one of the best Mexican restaurants in midtown Sacramento. The atmosphere is one of the best experiences it's sits inside of a park. The bartenders are awesome the drinks are great. And may I suggest the best time to visit is during concerts in the park.

I work a lot. Every day that I have off and I want good food, this place is always at the top of my mental list. As you can see, I get the same thing because it's bomb! Happy Hour Carnitas Nachos. Portion size for the price is so worth it. Vibes are great. Inside the restaurant is beautiful. Bonus points for an aesthetically pleasing and clean bathroom. Thanks. Have recommended this place to so many people.
