About Us
It all started in the late 60's in a kitchen the size of a large closet. At least five of her seven children always close by Our parents taught us by example, how to add the "love" while preparing the most delicious of Mexican dishes. "Mama" as so many knew her, always cooked with top quality ingredients, never skimped on the spices and was a firm believer in slow, nurturing cooking. From the kitchen came sounds of fresh vegetables being cleaned and chopped, meats being seared or grilled. The aromas of various chilies roasting, alongside were tomatoes, garlic and herbs. Together these wonderful ingredients produced the "sabor" or flavor that continues to excite the palate of generations of our guests. When you dine at La Cucaracha, you have joined our "familia" in celebrating the tradition that we are so proud of still.
