Hidden gem in Burbank, with delicious food, amazing service, and a very "home-y" vibe. The food has flavor, generous portions, and the aguas frescas were deliciously refreshing. The staff were attentive, very helpful, and good people to be helped by. I'll definitely come back again soon.
Awesome little gem that Gemini found for us in our trip to Universal. This restaurant isn't large and fanciest, but very well kept, food is amazing and best of all service is great. Portions are generous. Taste was great. Our waiter was very polite, took into consideration our dietary restrictions (vegetarian), and made appropriate adjustments to dishes to meet our needs (e.g. not just eliminate meat to make it vegetarian but replace it with veggies and cheese to our liking). Tasted a unique new flavour of Agua fresca, so that was nice :) Price was very reasonable for quality/portions/service. 100% recommend that you visit this place.
Walking into this restaurant, I immediately sensed that we were in for a family experience! That was exactly what it was! We enjoyed every bit of it, had a lovely and delicious meal with a very nice ambience. The service was exquisite, with an extensive menu, both breakfast, lunch and dinner. The breakfast menu was very large and it served all day. Our server checked on us at least four times. Also it's a small restaurant, so you're not gonna disappear into the shadows; my Carne Asada was delicious, and the meat was tender and flavorful. The cactus was also equally delicious with a lovely sauce. Everything was so good, a very blessed experience. We forgot an item at the table and they followed us all the way out to the parking lot to give it to us! So sweet! They even let me practice my Spanish and we're very courteous.
I am pleasantly pleased with this breakfast place. I ordered the chilaquilles con nopales. It came out warm and flavorful. The green sauce was perfect not so sour and not so spicy. The pancakes were light with a taste of cinnamon. The French toast was scrumptious with buttered flavor. Betty was our waitress and she was professional and accommodating to our dietary needs. Thank you Betty we will be back. I want to try the other dishes like machaca next. What a great find in Burbank.
Went here for the first time today and they were so friendly and helpful with the menu. They offered all the salsa to try and offered great suggestions. I went with the green chili verde omlette and the owner said it's his mom's recipe, I was not disappointed and it was the best pork chili verde I have ever had. My girlfriends chiliquiles were also amazing, never seen them so legit. Love the café de olla also. Isaac and his staff are the real deal.
It was our first time eating at MexCocina Cafe, and hands down, it’s one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to! The hospitality and attention we received were incredible, and the food was absolutely delicious. Everything from the service to the flavors made it a memorable experience. I’ll definitely be coming back every time I’m in Burbank, CA!
If I want authentic, I come here! I love this place! The iced horchata coffee is insanely delicious! Price is on point. Definitely it’s a place I will be returning!
Vegas local, we need one of these in Vegas ASAP. So delicious. I’m Hispanic and this place was amazing and tasted authentic PLUS some. 10/10 very quick and friendly service!
