La Cocina Latina Reviews
Very good food, the pupusas de queso are very delicious, very friendly staff as well. Will definitely come back to this place.
Had one of the most amazing nights of my life with my wife. Will DEFINITELY refer this establishment to everyone I know. Food was A1 and Joel (current GM) was absolutely outstanding.

La Cocina Latina is a small, clean restaurant with a brightly colored mural that adds to the authentic atmosphere. The staff, an all-women team, are friendly and take orders right away. Popular menu items are displayed with pictures above the counter. The menu is written in Spanish, but anyone coming here would know what they are ordering because they'd appreciate authentic Mexican cuisine.
The food is consistently splendid, flavorful, and fresh, with a home cooked flavor. Everything is made to order. Meals mentioned include chicken & cheese pupusas, steak chilaquiles with eggs, Milanesa Tortas, and tacos. The pupusas were flavorful and filling. The tortillas had the perfect balance of soft and crispy, all coated in a flavorful tomatillo sauce with just the right amount of heat, and topped with fresh queso fresco. The egg was cooked perfectly, and the steak was well-seasoned. The flan Mexicano was absolutely delicious. Service is very quick, with food coming out in under 15 minutes even during a packed lunch rush.
