About El Cocinero

El Cocinero is a fantastic casual dining restaurant that offers a wonderful dining experience with great food, drinks, and atmosphere. The menu is small, making it easy to choose from delicious options like the chile relleno taco and Carnitas corn taco. The tacos arrive quickly, and the waitstaff is kind, attentive, and helpful with recommendations, ensuring a fun and memorable time. The outdoor seating is a great spot to enjoy a meal on a nice day, and the decorations create a cute and inviting space.

The drinks are also a highlight, with the "El Cocinero Margarita" being one of the best and consistently great. The hot sauces are phenomenal, although there have been recent shortages. While the prices may be a bit high, the food is well worth it. However, there have been some complaints about cleanliness, particularly in the bathroom. Overall, El Cocinero is a great place to visit and look forward to coming back to.

Overpriced and not worth said price. They also steal from their customers. They will charge you for the drink you order but then also individually charge you for each shot they poured in your drink as well so you get double charged. They are ridiculous. Bad customer service as well.

Charging this much (30 fora Long Island) without telling the customer and being total jerks is not the professional way to conduct business!!
Everyone already knows the food sucks!! Customer service sucks and now you are literally acting like crooks. You will never last!!
I would think you would want to operate a restaurant that people enjoy and want to come to. Instead, you are alienating outsiders and insiders.

Poor customer service rude staff
