★★★★★ 5.0 Jeffery Powell · Dec 2025

The service is friendly, the salsa bar is limitless, and the food is delicious. Try it once and you'll be back!! Lunch specials are very well priced, most come in at 8.99 at the time of this review. Can't go wrong!!

Asked if they had Tamales. Server said, "Yes, we make them here." Received my meal of mashed up tamales with processed chunks of chicken. I brought this to the attention of the server. She then disclosed the tamales come frozen and they place shredded chicken on top. I asked her to take me tamales off of my meal. She proceeded with attitude. I asked her to speak to the manager or owner. I had a conversation with the owner and he seemed to care but not care. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

My family and I love Cocula Mexican Grill. The food is authentic, delicious, and nostalgic. Wide variety of sauces both mild and incredibly hot. Greatest place for Mexican grill in the area.

This was the best Mexican restaurant I’ve ever been to, the food was hot and fresh along with the free salsa bar… the atmosphere was very laid back and relaxing and our service was outstanding…my new favorite restaurant and I’ll definitely be returning
