Smothered breakfast burritos use to be our favorite but in past few months it's almost all potatoes a crumb of bacon if your lucky didn't see any eggs either I figured months ago they just forgot to put bacon and eggs in it so I have tried it a few more times and including yesterday morning and guess what it was all potatoes mostly and there not so cheap,what happened?

This place serves some of the best genuine New Mexican food in all of NM. Red and green chile, sopapillas, burritos and some really amazing recipes can be eaten here. Not too hard to find, plenty of parking and great service. If you're passing thru Espanola, you must stop in and eat at La Cocina. I do highly recommend..
