    Cocina Superior is definitely not your typical Mexican restaurant. I have been a handful of times and the food is always excellent as well as the wait staff and the atmosphere. The best dish on the menu, in my opinion, is the pollo tropical, simple yet tasty. My only complaint is that I wish the salsa were thicker/chunkier, but to each his own. I definitely recommend!

    Dirty dishes / Understaffed / Sporadic service: Cocina not-so-superior: Our party of 4, my husband and another couple, went on a Sunday afternoon and we were seated after waiting for 25 minutes when there seemed to be plenty of empty tables around. On the way to our table, we all smelled a stench that I can only describe to you as "dirty mop water". Our waiter was very nice when we were finally seated, but he disappeared after taking our orders. While waiting on the food to arrive I noticed a bartender wiping off the inside edges of an already-poured glass of wine, with a dish towel, because it was dirty just as it was about to be served. All of our plates, glasses, and utensils appeared to have been hastily cleaned and some had visible residue of dried food on them. I requested another drink when my tea arrived with a piece of lint (like what you find in your pockets) floating near the top of the glass. We started with the chips and dip appetizer and the salsa was good -not too spicy. We each had some version of a taco with a meat in it (chicken or steak), mexican rice, and the "tortilla" soup that comes with the meal. Overall the food was nothing short of excellent, but the poor service and sanitation issues overshadowed our experience. I believe Cocina has some good waiters, but its obvious they're trying to work too many tables at one time.

    Too expensive: Great casual Tex-Mex; good service. Much too expensive (cheapest thing for kids at luinch was 7.99)
