Cocina Real

I highly recommend stopping at this restaurant. We dined inside but outdoor dining is available. I had a very good blended (frozen) house margarita. Most frozen margaritas come out of slushy machine, not here. They make the margarita then put it in the blender to make it frozen. I prefer this method as I feel you get a better tasting drink 🍷. I had the Chimichanga Verde which is a chicken chimichanga in a spinach wrap then deep fried. It had a great flavor and would highly recommend this particular dish. The staff was very attentive and very pleasant. They do have a bar area, if you just wanted to stop by for a good margarita.

Quite possibly the cleanest restaurant I have ever been in. Not to mention, service was exceptional. I felt like family. The food was fresh and delicious. And they took special care to prepare the food with consideration for my food allergies...which can be difficult. Thank you for the wonderful experience. I will be back for more!

We had dinner at Covina Real with another couple. We had been there pre-pandemic and enjoyed it. This time, not as much. The guacamole from the guacamole cart was good, but pricey at $30, and there wasn't that much of it. We waited a good 15 minutes after that to get chips and salsa. I wanted coffee, which was on the menu, but it wasn't available according to the waiter. Time passed while we waited for them to take our order, and after that we waited longer than expected for the food. I would say the food was good, and we were going to finish off the meal with Mexican flan. But, like the coffee, it wasn't available. And the waiter never offered anything else for a dessert instead of flan. It was not quite the outing we looked forward to having.
