About Mi Cocina
Mi Cocina opened in the summer of 1991 in a small 12-table space in the Preston Forest neighborhood of Dallas. Chef Michael “Mico” Rodriguez started it with backing from Ray Washburne, Dick Washburne, and Bob McNutt. A second location opened in Highland Park Village in 1993, and the brand grew from there.
Today Mi Cocina is run by M Crowd Restaurant Group, which also operates Taco Diner and The Mercury. Mi Cocina has locations across the Dallas and Fort Worth area, plus Tulsa, Oklahoma, and newer stores in cities like Houston. The frozen Mambo Taxi margarita, a margarita-and-sangria swirl, is the drink the chain is best known for.
