“We heard of this restaurant from my parents and went solely based on the constant packed parking lot. When you enter you aren’t sure if you came in the right door but your met with the most hospitable servers. The layout and vibes are casual but clean. Our server was so attentive getting us refills on chips and drinks before we ever were close to running out. I ordered the Al pastor tacos that came out hot and delicious! I got the side salad that had cheese, mandarin oranges, tomatoes, and a vinaigrette that was perfect! Definitely would recommend this restaurant!“

We tried their flan which was a bit disappointing. However, they are a very busy place. A lot of Mexican people eat there. Worth giving a shot.“

“I eat Mexican on the regular when I'm not cooking. So I pretty much know the Mexican restaurant in the area. I had a favorite that was our go to ( still is if I am on that side of town). Best since Fiesta has opened, I admittedly would come here for the convenience and then food. They wete definitely a 2nd choice. I wasn't convinced about this place until I tried the chicken soup. Up until today, I have ordered take out about 6 times. Today, we ate; nice setting, clean, good music. I tried the soup; plenty of shredded chicken, just enough rice, enough avacado, but the broth, the broth was on point! Top with the lime and you will be craving the soup from then on! They have moved to 1st pl.“

“The best tacos I have tried in the entire food truck area, I ordered for a taco of each type of meat and they are all of excellent quality meat and flavor. The gorditas and Sopes are unique ,they are the largest I have eaten and delicious, my cousin ordered a burrito with extra beans which they charged extra cost, but it seemed fair to us ,everything extra has a cost everywhere , and for trying this delicious food we have no problem , on the contrary, we even leave a tip for the good service.“

I’d very much prefer to not pay extra when my kids won’t even eat even half of the food.The atmosphere is what you’d expect. It’s clean, and they are very fast with food, drinks, etc.It’s just that we carry out far more often that we eat in so…“

“I live in Apex, but I'll head to Garner on a regular basis now that I've found Cocula. I love authentic Mexican food, and this restaurant is the place to find it.I ordered the Enchiladas Supreme off the dinner menu. A wonderful selection of four enchiladas—cheese, ground beef, chicken, and bean—were beautifully displayed on the hot plate when it arrived. The enchiladas were topped with a delicious red sauce, sour cream, and shredded cabbage. The texture of the enchiladas was so smooth that each bite melted in my mouth.The wait staff is fantastic! The service was great, with the waiter checking on me regularly before, during, and after eating. When I clumsily dropped a glass and it shattered into many tiny pieces, the wait staff immediately reassured me that it was OK as they quickly swept up the mess I had made. My embarrassment quickly turned to gratitude.This is a friendly, welcoming place, with comfortable booths and a nice atmosphere. The food and the wait staff make it a treasured find. I can't wait to go back.“

For fun, festive, and great food and service for the dollar, no one beats this chain.

Easily in the top 3 Mexican food trucks I visit in the entire Raleigh area. It could easily be the best, just depends on the taste you’re after at this point. Definitely try it out. Only downside now js I’ll have to fight the steering wheel every time I drive by. Thanks!“

I ordered the chicken fajitas, the chicken and vegetables were cooked perfectly.My only very minimal gripe is I wish the tortillas were slightly larger. Other than that this place is well worth the money.“

Yes, you may have to wait a bit for your food but everything is made fresh to order and DELICIOUS. So, it's well worth the wait. If you're adventurous, definitely try their tacos with "lengua". 9 times out of 10 I will get the quesabirrias though. A few restaurants in the area offer this on their menu, but nobody makes them as well as this place.“

“I tried one of their house specials, the fajita nachos. It was a unique version of nachos, and tasted delicious. The price was very reasonable. I would definitely eat there again. The only complaint about the nachos was the cheese could have been thicker, so it didn't just all pool at the bottom of the nachos instead of actually being on the nachos. My Mom, whom I took there with me, thought they forgot to put the cheese on the nachos, until I told her she needed to scoop it from the bottom of the plate.“

“Obsessed with their steak tacos, so delicious. I eat here at least once a week, sometimes (more than sometimes tbh) more. Their spicy red sauce is on point, great heat and good flavor. Highly recommended. Can find them here fairly reliably, sometimes swapped with Azteca, another excellent taco truck. Heard they might have the same owners? Not sure, they're of comparable if not identical quality though.Honestly I'd eat here every day, totally addicted.“

They came with sliced cucumbers - never seen that before, lime and salsa. They were delicious and I would definitely go back. Maybe even tomorrow. I would have liked to have some chilis with the tacos, may sliced pickled jali's or something like that, but Im not complaining.Nothing more to say.“
