Review La Cocina De Mama - Louisville

Elizabeth Dorwart
The service was great, smiling host when we arrived and our server was very sweet. Food was okay, we got churros and could tell they were a bit freezer burnt BUT the drinks were amazing and the entrees were good, too. I didn’t like the shrimp tacos I got but I summed it up to personal preference over anything else because they did taste good. My boyfriend ate his burrito with no complaints.

I was really impressed with this place. The lunch menu was diverse, and I loved the pulled pork bowl I got. Our server was very friendly and very attentive. Never had an empty cup! We plan to return again very soon.

Went here for our first time today and it was perfect!! From the staff to the vibe, down to the food and drinks. It exceeded our expectations. Prices are fair and the portions are huge. The presentation of the food was beautiful. My happy hour our margarita was $5 and strong!! Food was hot, delicious and fresh!! Especially the salsa. You can tell it was house made and fresh!!

The food was delicious. Large portions. Everybody had a to-go box by the end of dinner. Not one of us was able to get dessert. I will say they had some really good looking choices on the dessert menu. We got there at the end of the lunch rush. We had to wait for a table to be cleaned off for the 8 of us. Only took them about 7 min and we we're seated. The waiting area is TINY, if anyone was coming out it was a struggle. Halfway through ordering it cleared out and it was only our table and one more. When we left there was another wave of people coming in. With all that being said, the only problem we had was the fact that we had to ask for straws. Then ask for silverware. Then ask for napkins, and again for napkins. Then ask twice for to-go boxes.

Nice intimate family owned Mexican restaurant. They have a big menu with lots of options, especially for vegan and vegetarian and gluten-free. House Margarita was pretty good. I had fish tacos for lunch. They were flavorful and came with beans and rice and a small side of what I thought was Chipotle aioli but turned out to be crema. Good flavors, excellent service. I would definitely go again.

One of my favorite restaurants. We have family gatherings here because the food never disappoints. The service is also great.

Small place with HUGE flavor...maybe the most authentic Mexican food I've had since we visited New Mexico a few years back...I was working in this area and happened to find this absolute gem...I will be back even if I have to drive 2 hours, it's that good!

The food was very good. My only complaint was there isn't an a'la cart menu. I'm a small eater so ordered from the kids menu of 3 choices and they add a $3 upcharge. If I was a child I would get a free drink with it. As an adult they would charge for a $3 drink. The salsa we loved, mild or warm. The 2 servers were friendly. I give it 4 stars for the above reasons and the music was a bit loud but try it, bc the food was good!

Great atmosphere and a very clean Mexican gem. Tacos and Tamales for this early dinner. Complimentary Fresh Chips and Salsa. We had Tamales, Steak Taco, Beef Taco, Chicken Soft Tacos. With Rice and Beans. The tamales were good but not as flavorful as I would expect. Presentation was perfect. The taco's were excellent! The steak was my favorite. The rice was exceptional! Service was great also. Two friendly attentive waitresses at shift change. I will definitely try this place again. The restroom was very clean and sanitary as well.

They have some of the best authentic options as well as your typical westernized Mexican that we all know and love. Staff is excellent and they have a patio. Try the Molcajete, bean soup, poblanos, and tamarind margarita.

Mole Enchiladas were very good. Selected 1 beef, 1 chicken and 1 cheese. Came with white rice, fried plantains and black beans. (I asked for refried but received the wrong ones.) enchiladas were tasty and very filling. Rice and beans fine but not remarkable. Didn’t care for the deep fried plantains. Overall good. Restaurant could use a little elbow grease In the cleaning department. However service was very good and attentive. Would go back

I was in Louisville for a couple of days and was looking for a Mexican restaurant. This restaurant hands down is pretty good, quick service, pretty cozy and small scale restaurant. Food is delicious and servers were pretty friendly, value for money 9/10.

I love the carne asada meal here and order it every time. Service and food is prompt, so we didn’t wait long for the food to arrive. The Atmosphere is so-so, nothing outstanding but who cares when the food is sooooo good And prices are fair. Nice little unassuming Mexican eatery tucked away in this plaza.

Properly seasoned food, actual flavor!! I routinely go to the Shelbyville location but this Hurstborne location dominates. The Shelbyville food is very bland and flavorless by comparison. This place makes great food, go support them!!
