My favorite Mexican restaurant! I have been coming here for years with my boyfriend for everything from take out to our 6 year anniversary dinner. Everything on the menu is good, but I recommend their chimichangas and their black bean soup! A real hidden gem!
We love coming here. Great food and accommodating for vegans. We especially love the veggie tacos and burritos as well as the guacamole. Very kid-friendly as well.
We had a lovely time at Cocina del Sol! Sitting outside was great and so nice on a sunny day. The service was very friendly and prompt. The food was wonderful - the chorizo queso appetizer was a highlight! We're already looking forward to going back!
Nice little place on the edge of Frenchtown. Food was decent, service was good. Prices were in line with similar types of restaurants in the area. Ingredients were fresh and the burritos were very good!
So good! I had steak and shrimp fajitas, absolutely delicious! My husband had the Coconut Shrimp special, also delicious. Portions are very generous and the service was also very good. Definitely recommend!
My son and I had a lovely stress-free lunch outside mid week. The server had just the right amount of a tentativeness and willingness to leave us be and enjoy our time, there was never any rush throughout the entire experience we found the food to be tasty, and wonderfully exciting. I had the fish tacos with mango, which was a surprise yet welcome addition. He went more traditional with a burrito. The Molay sauce and guacamole stood out as very, very nice. We did not try any of the local drinks, the day was so hot, that ice water seemed a valid choice. The outside benches did a family with their dog, who was so well-behaved that we barely knew he was there. We will return and give it a shot one evening and look forward to a similar experience.
sat outside with our dog on a thursday evening. the server was nice. i got shrimp tacos which were amazing. we also got tamales with mole sauce. 10/10
