La Cocina And Grill - Temecula

20% tax added to bills. They should put a sign on the door when you walk in. I had amazing service and very good food. When I got the bill paid with card and set cash aside for the waiter. (Always tip in cash when I can more for the servers) When he handed it back I handed him $30 cash tip. Latter realizing 20% was all ready taken out. He was very great full for the cash and know I know why. I did not ask for it back but it’s a learning lesson. I definitely felt taken advantage of. I could not go ask him to give me the money back very awkward but he could have told me.

It was a great, tasteful experience. We were seated right away and greeted by our waitress very soon after being seated. The chips were warm and the salsa was tasty and not too spicy. We enjoyed our food. I had the El Jefe burrito which is large enough to feed 3 people.

Want to say Thank You for the great service today. I didn't catch the servers name. He served all 14 of us like a pro. We were celebrating my daughter's graduation from high school. The food was excellent. Again Thank you may God Bless your business.

This is the first time we’ve eaten here. We both had steak fajitas, which were very good but they were a little shy on steak. We also ordered two of their House Margaritas. They were so-so and served in water glasses, which was strange. They gave us three flour tortillas each with our fajitas. The tortillas were very small and I don’t know how they expected you to only need three of them. We asked for three more and surprisingly there was a charge of $2 for the additional tortillas. We have eaten at many Mexican restaurants over the years and we can’t recall one time that we were charged for the extra tortillas. They have a mandatory 20% service fee tacked on to the bill. You are not given the option of whether and how much to tip, no matter how good or bad the service. Supposedly, 60% of that service fee goes to the server. There was also a sign at the entrance that asks you to limit your visit to 75 minutes or less, but it took at least 30 minutes for the food to arrive. The sign is kind of off putting and uninviting.

Always the best! I have been a frequent flyer here for 10+ years. They have the best staff, best food and perfect atmosphere for Mexican fare! Even though my husband and I usually order the same items from the menu every time we visit they never disappoint. Food, drinks and staff here are awesome!
