Contribute FeedbackCocina del Barrio offers a mix of highs and lows according to recent reviews. While some praise the amazing service, cocktails, and delicious food, others lament the pretentious staff and lackluster atmosphere. The varied menu receives mixed reviews, with standout dishes like Cochinita pibil and birria tacos garnering praise. The restaurant's beautiful decor, attentive service, and unique cocktails also receive positive mentions. Overall, Cocina del Barrio seems to be a hit or miss dining experience, with exceptional dishes and service contrasting with some disappointing aspects.
That was a happy accident. the menu offers many plant-based options and large beverage options. highly recommended for a beautiful, upscale meal.
And tons of tasteful options. try the flare de calabaza fish *cook kiss*
I am not a very picky person (as they can see from previous reviews), but this is one of my least preferred meals. I ordered the cocospalms, mushroom tings and mushroom quesadilla. the aguachi had practically no taste and really needed salt and lime. honestly, it didn't cost anything as I remembered. the mushroom quesadilla came to a sauce that I just don't enjoy personally. the mushroom tinga was the best dish of the night, but again it was nothing to bash. there are so many better vegan options in hillcrest and san diego, I would simply not recommend choosing this place unless someone really wanted to come. the food doesn't taste almost as good as it looks. the service is also immaculate. the person, the water and the cleaning of the tables was very friendly, the waiter was not rude, but also not friendly. my family ordered the non-Veg menu and did not enjoy their food. updated by previous review on 2021-12-01
We went to the man's birthday. we shared 3 dishes and they were all delicious. unfortunately this restaurant has no vegan desserts.
We came here for a birthday party and I honestly didn't even see the place up. I didn't expect much because my plan was to go somewhere else for lunch, but WOW! We ordered the young coconut palm and that was great, my husband got the barrio salad he liked. We also asked the server when she had other vegan brunch recommendations and she was actually vegan herself, so she had the kitchen some vegan green chilaquiles with Soja Rizo and that was amazing! My friend and I used the groundless mimoses for $20 and my hubby and brother had some other great Margarita choices. I noticed that her dinner menu has even more vegan options, so we definitely plan to go back for them.
