Cocina 1912 — Restaurant in Santa Paula

A transcendental experience... I should explain. Started the morning by hiking up to the punch bowls beginning @ 6am. About half way up I ingested 1gm of mushrooms. As I arrived to my destination about an hour later, things were feeling great. I hung out about half an hour and then began to make my way back, rolling along happily. I arrived back @ my vehicle @ 10:45am and then made my way to Cocina 1912. As I pulled up and then stepped out of my vehicle, I noticed my flask was in the door pocket. Knowing I was about to order a piping hot bowl of menudo, I took a good swing before I made my way in. I ordered my meal and when it arrived at the table, i added lots of pepper flakes, some lemon and oregano, and onion and cilantro as well. By god, by the time I was 1/4 of the into it, I was in a trance. Just sweatin' and feeling the meal wash over me like a wave. A wave of calm and nourishment. All the way through I was buzzing. I finished up and it took me about another 10 min to feel like I could stand and not get woozy.

10 outta 10, would...

I was just finishing up some work in Santa Paula and decided to look for a good taco 🌮 place. Cocina 1912 had 4.9 stars on Yelp so I decided to stop there for a little snack before driving back to Los Angeles. This was some of the most delicious food I've eaten in quite some time. The quality comes through visually and taste wise.

I ordered taquitos and received hot freshly made tortillas and homemade red and avocado salsa. The chips were so crunchy and flavorful. The salsas were very delicious with the green being a little 🔥 as they indicated on the bottle. I ordered a trio of taquitos filled with chicken and beans. So so good! Seasoned chicken, crunchy taquitos and yummy beans. The next time I am working in Santa Paula, I will definitely be stopping by again. Can't wait to try something different on the menu! Sorry I ate the taquitos before...

I can not believe I am just visiting this place for the first time! It's seldom that I go to a restaurant and get the amazing customer service that we received here. All smiles from staff taking our orders to server to cook. The food was absolutely delicious. Very flavorful. Please continue to greet everyone that walks into your establishment as you greeted us. I have recommended your restaurant to many ever since! We will definitely be coming back for the great service and delicious food.

Thank you for...
