What User likes about La Cocina:
I drive quite a bit to come here, honestly—I visit every two weeks. The food is consistently good. I will say that the staff could be more attentive, but the line moves quickly, and even if you have to wait, it’s always worth it. Whenever I'm at Manny's, I feel like I've hit the jackpot! I often get so caught up in my meal that I forget to take photos, so I need to upload more as time goes on, but for now, enjoy what... View all feedback.
What User doesn't like about La Cocina:
Caution when ordering through Uber Eats! I just received my order of Pernil with two sides, but the pulled pork was completely missing, as if it was never part of my order. It was a huge waste of time and money, especially given how expensive it was. I work nearby and have always recommended this restaurant to my colleagues, clients, and vendors. But I guess the joke's on me. View all feedback.
