Mi Cocina is a Tex Mex institution in the Dallas area. The Mi Cocina in the Highland Park Village is (by far) the most successful location of the franchise. It's great, don't get me wrong, but should you find yourself there, take my advice and carve through the action downstairs and head straight up to the Monkey Bar (located on the 3rd Floor). It's a chill, quaint little spot. An exhale from the Grand Central of pretty people just below. It's a really cool happy hour or evening perch, with friendly service, inviting decor and great light. Go here for a Tecate or Mambo Taxi margarita (watch out) and some Nachos Locos.
