Recent Reviews
Mex Cocina / La Catrina is a gem in the Capital Region! The food is authentic, flavorful, and delicious – the tacos and margaritas were top-notch. With the growing Latino community here, this restaurant is a much-needed spot where everyone can feel at home. The staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Highly recommend – I’ll definitely be back!

I got the Huevos con Chorizo while at the Troy Farmers Market today. The eggs and chorizo were delicious. The torillas were freshly made and out of this world. This dish also comes with black beans, which I did not get as I don’t like black beans. Overall, the food was amazing and I can’t wait to try their chorizo and potato empanadas and much more. The staff that I interacted with were very kind.

Perhaps the finest Oaxacan cuisine you'll find in upstate New York. From the quality of the food to the presentation and atmosphere, all top notch. Their mole dishes are exceptional, but so far my favorite are their birria dishes.
There is nothing on the menu that hasn't been a delight to eat.
Nice ambiance both indoors and out.
