Devine tacos in a cozy place. I had the carne asada tacos which had just the right amount of heat to them. Would also recommend the queso dip and chips. Great selection of margaritas!

The food was INCREDIBLE! It was also very filling! 2 small tacos and one appetizer enchilada had me full! The cocktails are also amazing, I got the ginger and tequila one. The only small complaint I have is I had to flag down our waitress anytime I needed something and that includes wanting to order salsas and my entree. I also sympathize because they weren’t overly busy but they had a good amount of people in there, so I’m sure she had a full section. I also really enjoyed the overall ambiance of this place. I definitely recommend visiting!

Only been here twice, once back in 2017 and again in 2025. I think the food was better in 2017, but that's a long time ago.

Good food. Just the place to go if you want to enjoy a great relatively inexpensive meal with friends and family.

The drinks, Cadillac Margarita and another with Pineapple puree with a lime and Chile rim, was great. The Carne Asada was not good. The meat was quite tough. The Asparagus as an appetizer was terrific.

They try too hard to be fancy, but wind up with dishes that are just, well, weirdly off. They were willing to attempt alterations, but mostly couldn't. Service was slow & not terribly friendly. A very promising appetizer of white shrimp ended up way too charred and short of rubbery behind the burnt parts.

We had an amazing experience at Nuestro Cocina! From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. It’s a very kid-friendly spot, and the service was absolutely phenomenal—attentive, warm, and super accommodating.

They don’t take reservations, but I actually appreciated that. We arrived a little early, and they had a smooth system in place to get us seated as soon as a table was available. It gave the whole experience a relaxed, local vibe.

The food? Phenomenal. The steak was cooked to perfection, and the chips and salsa were some of the best I’ve ever had. They also have an incredible variety of cocktails featuring mezcal and tequila. I was especially impressed by their tequila selection—top-notch!

I’ll definitely be back. Whether it’s for a casual night out or a special meal with family, Nuestro Cocina hits all the right notes. Highly recommend!

Honestly just overpriced ok Mexican food. Save yourself 100 dollars and go to a food truck

The menu is comprehensive and full of seasonal surprises. The atmosphere on a Saturday night was crowded, but friendly. The servers were amazing at the bar and table side. What fell short were some basics on the food. I happen to live a predominantly Latino/x community in Washington County so a basic like the chips fell short. Also the queso dip was a stringy lump and far from a dip. The ceviche and tacos were very good and covered for the queso short comings. I'd go back, but for the service no necessarily the food.

My wife and I recently went here for my birthday. We left disappointed. The food was good, but not as great as we remembered from years ago when we had visited. The service was lackluster. The staff seemed stressed, like they were just trying to get through the night. My wife mentioned it was my birthday - Not even a “happy birthday” from our server - she couldn’t have cared less.

Good place to wait for another reservation that is across the street. They served us easily at the bar. Was not super crowded but every table was full. Good drinks and good taps for us before we at
