The wait staff were friendly and kind. I ordered the lunch special of chicken fajitas and was able to eat one corn tortilla with some chicken in it. I was very hungry and dearly wanted to eat the rice and beans and more chicken but the food was rather tasteless and was and just not fresh- it did not seem to have been prepared with fresh, quality ingredients in the moment (or even that day) and/or by someone who enjoyed food preparation or eating….I do not enjoy leaving negative feedback -but I ended up leaving 3/4 of my plate untouched on the table- something I never do. The chips and salsa brought out beforehand were also lacking in that the salsa did not seem at all fresh……you can easily see when tomatoes and onions have seen better days. I paid full price and was offered apologies by the very kind waitress and the cashier. I would not recommend this place if you are looking for fresh, quality food….sorry to be harsh…..perhaps it was just the day- Monday the 22nd of December around 1:30.

i love the food but the prices are a bit crazy for me. $27 for 3 birria tacos mind you no rice and beans just the tacos and $27 so $9 a taco that’s just crazy.

The food was the worst. I never thought they would serve like this in this place. I was surprised by the service. I imagined a better place. Total disappointment.

La Cocina js a cozy, family run restaurant with ample seating and basic Mexican fare. It’s not the most flavorful and many items are similar to one another but this restaurant is CONSISTENT. You know what you’re getting if you eat here regularly. Generally I order the carne asada- I like to order it rare otherwise it’s always cooked well done and just ruins the texture of the meat. Asada tacos are good, chicken taquitos are delicious, and we love their chips and salsa. Generally service is good but just like any other restaurant it depends on who’s working. If you’re looking for incredible, authentic, flavorful food this isn’t the place. Consistent, delicious, Mexican cuisine- yes. It’s Montana, not California.

We went a few weeks back while we were in town. The waitress was very unfriendly. She wasn't happy our party had 8 people in it. She put my order down way before anyone else's. It was the wrong order. She realized it belonged to another table so she took the plate away without saying anything before grabbing it. When our order did come, the food wasn't warm. The only part of our order that was warm was the plates. The cheese wasn't melted in any order. She never came back to refill drinks so my daughter had to keep getting my drink. She rudely stood over our shoulder while we signed the bill. I will never visit this place again.

READ THIS: Go to Cafe Rio, Chipotle, or Taco Bell instead! Better food and much better prices!!!

So here's the thing.... this is the worst Mexican food I've ever had. Ordered queso and was given a .75 bowl of shredded cheese because they don't serve queso dip.
Ordered a margarita and apperantly they don't make actual margaritas. They splash a bit of mix into wine and don't tell you that until after you've ordered.
Food was terrible and waaaaaaaaaay overpriced. $25 for five shrimp and a a plate of onion.

I cant stress enough how God awful this place is. But if you don't take my word for it fair enough, but don't say you weren't warned.

And yes I know Taco Bell isn't exactly Mexican food either but it may as well be the considered the standard when compared to La Cocina.

Ps. Why is there cabbage in the salsa?!?!

The sign on their door saying they’re open till 9 o’clock. I got here at 8:35.

The door says they’re open. They have an open sign on their door.

But I was informed they’re not going to serve me that the cooks were done cooking at this point I wouldn’t want the cooks to cook for me anyway afraid of what I would get. This is not the first time this has happened to me trying to go to this business. The heavyset waitress refused to serve me the young bus boy he looked at his watch to see what time it was.
It’s pretty sad that we have this type of people in the service industry I don’t want to do their job
If I was the owner, I would check into this. They’re turning your business away.
Now I cannot rate the food or the atmosphere because I was rudely told I had to go that they weren’t going to serve me
