While I usually prefer higher-end places like Cowfish in North Hills or Midtown, the staff and service at this restaurant have consistently impressed me. I typically rate places 3 to 4 stars, but the welcoming attitude of multiple staff members who come to greet you makes it hard to give less than 5 stars. The food is absolutely fantastic—without a doubt, the best Mexican restaurant around. In fact, they could raise their prices by $2 on menu items because I'm definitely getting more than my money's worth! If anyone wants to see pictures or hear personal testimonials about how exceptional this place is, feel free to reach out to me directly. Better yet, let’s meet for lunch, and I can share this delightful Coco-Bongo experience with you!

They were delicious and came with rice and beans. The interior is beautifully decorated, creating a lively atmosphere, and it seems to be quite a popular spot on the strip, especially on weekends. They offer some nice drink specials too. Our waiter was decent—not overly friendly, but not rude either. Overall, it was a good experience, and I would definitely return.

Best tacos in town! As a result, this place is PACKED, 7 days a week. This is my go-to for tacos y burritos. read more Best tacos in town! As a result, this place is PACKED, 7 days a week. This is my go-to for tacos y burritos.
