La Cocinita Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in New York

Today I came in for the first time excited to try their food. I ordered a chicken burrito. I JUST finished eating half of it and I wish I could get my money back. For $15 you'll get a flavorless rice filled burrito with barely any chicken, again, ALL flavorless. The guac was an extra $2.50 for a spoonful of it.

The tres leches was definitely something that they bought from a store or something but it ended up being really good tres leches so I can't complain. I'd probably get food at this place a lot more often if I...
