Reviews for La Cocina de Mama Margarita in Palm Desert, CA
Came here while on vacation. I was looking for "real" Mexican food. This was the spot! Made ne feel like I was being fed by... someone's abuela. The food and atmosphere was great. I had the fried fish which I turned into fish tacos and ny daughter had thebirria tacos. Read more
The food was good but the tempture of the dinning area was very hot. Will not go back in the summer time.
Eat the albondigas. If you want to make them even better then they are order a side of cheese and their spicy salsa and dump... that in. HONESTLY all their soups are better then anywhere else in the area but their albondigas are just as good if not betterthen homemade by your abuela!! Love this place, the owner and the staff are fantastic. I eat her often sometimes 2-3xs per weekand I swear it gets better every time I am in. Read more

Only one waitress and one cook, this led to us waiting over thirty minutes for tacos while two other tables with more people... than us got their food before us, and we ordered before they even got there. When my tacos finally got there they were barelywarm and the tortillas completely fell apart from how long the taco had been sitting there absorbing its own moisture, like ifthey had just been sitting in the back for a very long time. It was disappointing to say the least. Flavor was not great. Read more
Small quaint Mexican restaurant that is reasonably priced and taste good. My family of 6 enjoyed all that was ordered. Chips... and salsa are not free but only cost $1 for a basket. Nice atmosphere with Mexican music playing in the background. We likedthe food so much, especially the flan, that we ate here once more the for dinner, and had the same experience as we did forlunch. Service was very good and attentive, like being served by a family member. Read more
Made sure over the phone that the burritos had onions and cilantro doesn't look like there's any in there.... Asked for green... enchiladas and they were red... Salsa doesn't really have flavor... Read more
The food was delicious with chips and salsa on the side. Staffs were super friendly.
