We have been eating here for 26 years, and have never been disappointed! Try their Aida burrito for a change from the usual Carne Asada. More

La Cocina is a well established business and the place is always busy. The people are super nice and always try to please. This is a taco shop but if you eat in they will bring your food and beverages to your table. They also provide chips and salsa for dinning in guests while you wait. I would not say... More

Very average mexican food. The tortillas were fresh and the salsa and chips good. The carne asada meat was extremely tough and the chicken was dry on several dishes. Better than fast food Taco Bell, but not by much. More

Walking in there is a good feel and aroma to La Cocina. The owners and employees are very friendly, and our food was delicious. It was sparkly clean. When in Ramona, this will be my dining location. More

This is authentic Mexican food. My wife had the chicken rancho combination and I had the beef taco combo. Both were very tasty. They serve chips with three types of salsa, one mild and two different ones with more of a bite. The salsas are left on the table so you can spice up your dish to taste. The portions... More

Our family makes an annual trip out to Ramona & Julian for pumpkin patches and apple picking. Last year we went to La Cocina on advice from a local and were not disappointed. This year we returned and equally pleased with our experience. I checked TripAdvisor and someone recommended the 2 Beef Taco plate - delicious!! A wonderful shredded beef... More

Went looking for simple mexican fare. On the corner was a ordinary looking little bar restaurant. We stopped in and tasted some of the best food I have ever had. The portions were large and we did not walk out hungry. The waitress was pleasant and we did not wait long for our food. Defiantly worth checking out if in... More

We have lived in Ramona since 1970 and have enjoyed this great kitchen for many, many years. Everything is so good there. The 2 beef taco plate is my favorite, but I think everything on the menu is amazing. More
