Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

Just moved to a new house about 10 blocks away, gone in a number of times already for food and/or beer on tap. Manager, Jorge, is a really good guy and so is the staff. Today, met some other dude with ties to the owners who basically told me I could not hang out and watch the finals of the World Cup without ordering something. It kinda sucks but that's the last time I step foot in this restaurant. They just cost themselves probably $150 a month in revenue. The dude must have taken a coarse in "how to loss a customer" Oh. .....As far as the food -- I've tried the Machaca with eggs for breakfast and had their green chili as well. Both are pretty good.

Pretty decent Mexican restaurant for a small town in Colorado. I've ordered the carnitas a few times and was only disappointed once because they were dry. Margaritas are decent and they have a nice patio to relax on. We will be going back to try some other menus items.

Ate here again recently and was disappointed the "Queen Tostada" is actually taco salad at most other Mexican places. Will never order this again and the experience in here on this visit was very disappointing because of this. The chips and salsa were good is the only positive thing I can say. To the management, why call a queen tostada something that it is not?

Stopped for a beer with hubby and juat sat in bar which had wall to wall windows and view of corner street. Ordered beef taquitos (shredded) very good size 4 of them with yummy guac, sour cream and pico de gaio (sp?) Great and only $7. Chips veryvgoos but salsa bland. Good bartender.

I like this place. I've been quite a few times and the service and food is always consistent. Food is pretty good. Not as good as home made but really good food in a small town. The staff always are quick to refill your drinks and chips. I'll keep going back. The place has always been busy when I have gone

First impression was this is a nice old house turned restaurant with outdoor seating (which was closed on the nicest day of spring so far). The menu seemed a little pricey but the portions were very large. I had the blandest taco salad ever and my friend who never complains complained. It is so hard to screw up Mexican food but somehow they managed it. With so many other really good Mexican places at 1/2 the price I will not be back.

Following our Berthoud pub crawl, we settled in here for a light dinner. The server was courteous and spoke very good English; the menu was extensive and boasted all the classic Mexican-American favorites. Our group shared a plate of chile verde (stewed pork in green salsa) and a trio of enchiladas (chicken, cheese, beef.) Both entrees came with Spanish rice, refried beans, lettuce, pico de gallo and sour cream. They were exactly what I expected -- not top-notch quality, but filling and good. The server brought hot sauce on request, as everything was a little too bland for my taste. Nice little neighborhood joint! We would definitely visit again.

Went there for dinner. The food was bland. I ordered chicken enchiladas and not even sure there was chicken in there. Everything was lacking texture and flavor. My dinner companion ordered the rellenos which were undercooked and the peppers had not been cleaned properly before stuffing. The only highlight to the meal was the hot sauce I requested which is made in house. The sauce was the only thing that added flavor to the bland. The service was horrible. It wasn't busy and yet we waited a long time to get someone to take our drink orders, our food orders and to get the check. The food came out quickly but since it needed more cooking time - the service speed is moot.

Great patio. Stale chips. Flavorless salsa.

We get take-out quite a bit and the food is always consistently good. It's just what Berthoud needed and I'm glad that it is still in business.

While we all miss Santiago's, I have to say Mi Cocina's food is good and one of our favorite restaurants in town. The patio is a great place to hang out and the night they have margarita specials (Monday?) is really popular. The breakfast burritos are also popular - there's often a line out into the street.

We were having a small family get together of four people and needed somewhere to go that was convenient for everyone to meet at between Johnstown and past Berthoud. Being a newer restaurant, we decided to give this place a go. The salsa and chips were ok...but the salsa was really lacking. Three of us ordered chimichangas and one ordered a type of enchilada. My chimichanga was interesting...a little squishy from all the sauce which shouldn't be. It was decent tasting otherwise, and a good portion. Everyone else in my party enjoyed their food for the most part as well. The wait service was absolutely wonderful. We were seated right away, and our drinks and meals came quickly. Our party got to talking and we left kind of late - we didn't realize they had been closing up. You know what though? They didn't bug us...they let us finish our conversation which was really cool of them, and thanked us for our business on our way out. The decor inside...well, it's obviously an old house fixed up to be a restaurant. Doors everywhere, a staircase behind the hostess station, etc. They had it all decorated up for Halloween and did a cute job of it....I liked the inside...it was different. They have a nice patio outside as well, which we saw some people really enjoying when we entered the restaurant. All in all, it wasn't the best Mexican food I've had but by far it wasn't the worst. For as cool as the staff was, I really hope they make it. It would be nice to see Berthoud sustain a good restaurant. One thing I would automatically improve here is the salsas....seriously, ditch the stuff in the jar and make it fresh! Why? Because this is your FIRST impression to your customers...wow them out of the gate!

So so Mexican food. I had the chips and salsa which were ok but nothing in the ingredients that popped out at me. I also had an appetizer which was taquitos I believe which were fairly tasty but those filled me up on my own. Good thing the main course I ordered was actually intended for lunch the next day. The chili verde burrito that I ordered was huge! The green chili itself had a kick to it but once again none of it screamed to me that I found a treasure of Mexican food here at Mi Cocina. Yes, as I said before. I am a huge Mexican food snob. Period. And no apologies. The wait staff was very nice, attractive and attentive to my and to the other diner's needs so in that regard that was a plus!

Didn't go inside, just relaxed on the great patio out front and watched Berthoud roll by. Server was friendly and efficient. Lunch-time fajitas were perfect and despite other reviews, I found the salsa quite satisfactory. I will be back

I was surprised to find Mexican food this good in such a small town. Having moved from Fort Collins where I had a hard time finding Mexican food that was up to my standards (I grew up where you could get a lot of good Mexican food in Aurora), I was happily surprised to find Mi Cocina. I've been a few times and have had good, large portions of authentic Mexican food. The only thing that kept me from giving Mi Cocina 5 stars were their margaritas, I'd prefer them a little stronger but this might just be me. :)

I was so hoping that Berthoud would finally get a great Mexican Restaurant. From what me and my granddaughter experienced tonight my hopes were extenguished by a Jumbo Chalupa and the common hamburger. We arrived around 7ish and only had to wait for a few minutes to be seated. We were first taken into the bar area (my granddaughter is 9) and asked to sit next to a group of adults that were obviously enjoying their evening, so I asked the waiter to please seat us somewhere more appropriate so a child would not be exposed to colorful talking and also so that the people in the bar could be relieved of having to curtail their expressive language. We were taken into another room which was much better. Immediately, an employee brought chips and dip to the table ... oh boy did we get big smiles because we both love chips and dip. Ugh! My granddaughter dipped in a chip, popped it in her mouth and then remarked, "Uh, Nana, the dip taste like cold veggie soup. She was right. We asked for some spicy dip and were served a bowl of roasted green chili that had been diced. Stems were included. The salt and pepper shakers were empty (makes me question how well they take care of their tables after closing and before opening ... I mean .... empty?), there was small pieces of paper all over the floor and when my granddaughter went to the restroom she came back and said that the restroom reminded her of horror show ... "it is really creepy in there Nana and they don't have hot water for washing your hands." The hamburger my granddaughter order (because she did not see anything on the menu she wanted) was tougher than boot leather and I am serious. I could barely cut it up to put it into the box to take home for the dogs. The burger was not only tough but dry and tasteless. The Jumbo Chalupa I ordered was not good at all. First it looked more like what I would call a Taco Salad. The beans at the bottom were soupy with regular cheddar cheese on top then covered with shredded ice burg lettuce a few slices of tomato topped with overly grilled pork and shrimp and I think chicken. When I say overly grilled I am serious. The outer part of the meat was so burnt that I could not even bite it. The shrimp was okay until the third one which was raw. When we ordered the salsa it never arrived until I got up to go look for our server. The server took my granddaughters drink away to refill and it never returned until I got up to go get it myself. I even had to collect the menus off the table and go put them away. Horrible food, horrible service and I am really disappointed because I had such high hopes .....
