La Doña Cocina Mexicana

Everything here is delicious. Very authentic Mexican food. Each time I’ve came the service has been amazing. Definitely recommend the enchiladas suizas.

We stumbled upon this lovely place when looking for authentic Mexican cuisine in Richmond, and we hit the jackpot. The atmosphere was upbeat, bright and friendly. Daniel, the owner, spent ample time explaining the menu, the concept behind this family owned restaurant, and answered all of our questions. The best part…the food! Incredible. We had fresh guacamole (possibly the best I’ve ever had), tacos dorados, alambre, mango cheesecake (pictured), and a traditional Mexican coffee. It was one of the best meals I have had in a very long time, and it was so reasonably priced. There is no doubt we will return for many more meals. Highly recommend!

Hands down my new favorite restaurant for a fresh take on authentic Mexican food! Unique dishes, super friendly owner, great food and presentation, and a really cool atmosphere. We had an arbol chile and peanut salsa that was incredible, their homemade tortillas were so soft and light, and their agua frescas were all homemade with no additives, just fresh fruit. The owner, Daniel, told us they have 25 different salsas in-house for various recipes, which was super impressive! We will be going back here frequently and highly recommend checking it out!

Would give 10 stars if I could. The meal was delicious, the atmosphere is clean, nice and welcoming. Our server was outstanding and service is friendly. I HIGHLY recommend this place if you're looking for traditional Mexican cuisine.
We really loved how authentic the food was made. They have “cafe de olla” a delicious coffee made with cinnamon in a clay pot. Just a wonderful dining! I’ll definitely come back!

I can say wonderful things about this place. The atmosphere is very homely. The service is spectacular and the food is delicious. It is a family restaurant and they are incredible. The food tastes excellent. The desserts are delicious. The coffee is delicious. I highly recommend it.
It is certain that we will return for more!!!
