Food: Delicious yet risky

La Cocina Del Sereno boasts of dishes that are the talk of town. Renowned for its 'Gordita with Carne Asada', the restaurant certainly sets the bar high. The 'Chicharrón con Chile Verde Burrito', often compared with top spots in San Francisco, furthers the favourable impression. However, it takes a dive with the 'Carnitas Plate' which could swing from being heavenly tasty to disappointingly dry. The taste does seem to be on point when it's a home run, yet questions on freshness persist casting a cloud on the otherwise positive reviews.

  • Okay Taste
