What People Are Saying About Don Cuco

The Editor

Contributor

Citysearch

In Short – Kitschy decor and peach-hued stucco walls create atmosphere inside and strong margaritas and reasonably priced, homey Mexican fare keep the room filled. Traditional offerings like beef tacos and enchiladas lead the menu, though there's flair in spicy shrimp burritos. Open-face quesadillas pile shredded chicken, chorizo, green chilies, black olives and Jack cheese on a flour tortilla. The salad supreme--iceberg lettuce with avocado, cheese, olives, tomatoes, chicken breast and shrimp--is one of the healthier choices.

always busy, authentic cuisine, friendly staff

by sarahbernardo11 at Citysearch

the staff is among the friendliest i have encountered in a long time. i go here every wednesday for their lunch buffet, but recently started going after work for their happy hour, which is truly delightful. i am always seated promptly and attended to by a very competent waitstaff. the best part about going for dinner is the bean dip they serve with their chips and salsa (only served at dinnertime apparently). everytime i go the restaurant is packed to the gills with seemingly happy customers, which (as my father says) is always the truest comment about any restaurant. the enchiladas (cheese and chicken) are delicious, as well as the macho burritto, and bbq ribs at the buffet. this place also has the best margaritas... lets just say they arent shy with their tequila. bon apetit.

  • Pros: delightfuly fun staff
  • Cons: metered parking
