From our Mi Cocina Familia to yours, we just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for your support as we quickly transitioned our business from dine in to curbside to go in March. You were patient, you were generous and loyal. Yesterday marked a new month, the beginning of the reopening of Texas and the reopening of Mi Cocina dining rooms. We found ourselves transitioning to a new business model again. And you showed up. You were once again patient, generous and loyal. We cannot express how thankful we are for the opportunity to serve you Dallas’ favorite margarita and our legendary Tex-Mex and provide the Mi Cocina experience you’ve been missing for several weeks. The opportunity to support our own families through your generosity. Thank you to those who continued to order curbside to go. You are all greatly appreciated and we look forward to seeing you again very soon.
