I can’t stop talking about this place. It’s grab and go, heat and serve… AND SO GOOD. Very accommodating to dietary restrictions. Many vegan, gluten free, and dairy free options. They even have vegan queso and chorizo. The atmosphere is like nowhere I’ve ever been. This is a very welcoming environment. I was helped by a staff member named Atzin and they were awesome, I had called with a lot of questions and they patient and knowledgeable. They were able to give me additional guidance and recommendations when I was in the store.

Great place for a take and bake meal. I had been curious about La Cocina de Ana after driving by on my way to the airport a couple of times. I am so glad I stopped today. There were several premade options in the coolers and I brought home the tinga de res (served on tortillas), arroz con maize and garbanzos. So nice to have a delicious dinner ready quickly that my family loved. I will absolutely be back!

Tj Prall

La Cocina de Ana has amazing take n’ bake meals and various sides that are delicious and full of flavor! If you have dietary restrictions like gluten free; they can accommodate. We tried the tinga chicken, rice with corn, beans with chorizo, and poblano queso which was a good amount for 2 people. I look forward to the next Take N Bake night at La Cocina de Ana with their other items! Highly recommended

Ian Decker

Have tried the Flan, Tres Leches, Salsa Jalapeño Picante, and Salsa Cilantro. Everything has had tons of flavor and has tasted incredible. Directions are simple and the dishes are really accessible. Staff are friendly and make you feel like you’re home.

Take and bake Mexican! I thought the flavor in the Puerco con Poblano was amazing, the

Kathryn Hathaway

A unique addition to W 7th. Small family-owned business that uses traditional recipes that are flavorful and fresh. All of the salsas are made from scratch and the owners are accommodating and knowledgeable. They also have Jarritos in stock in their cooler which are a must with their tasty enchiladas. I highly recommend the chilaquiles, salsa cilantro and delightfully spicy salsa jalapeno.

Ashley Galchutt

They make the best vegan food here. So excited to be able to get good, healthy meals for my kid who has food allergies! THANK YOU!

Elizabeth Carruth

The food was exceptional! The queso con poblano and ceviche were great appetizers. The flavor in the main dishes was truly delicious. You can buy chips and tortillas for a very fair price when picking up the dishes. Amazing service and a very nice tribute to Ana’s cooking. We will be visiting again!

Mark Hanno

Tried this place for the first time last night. Ordered a large Chilaquiles Verdes (Green Chicken Enchiladas), which was more than enough to feed our family of four and have some leftovers for the next day. The enchiladas were very good. They had a small amount of heat, but not too much for my kids. Good food at a fair price. We will definitely order again.

Bri Vigliotti

I was so excited to see a place like this came to our West 7th neighborhood! Mexican take n’ bake? Sign me up! This place makes dinner so easy, quick and delicious! Not to mention I love supporting local. I love that you can get single portion sizes or family sizes depending on how many you wanna feed! My roomies and I will go in on a large entree and medium side dish and we’re more than satisfied. Speaking of which, so far we’ve tried the Chicken Adobo Enchiladas and the Carnitas Enchiladas in Poblano sauce. The adobo was ok/good—kind of just tasted like a sweet, tangy lasagna but the poblano carnitas were to DIE FOR. So so good! We also got the
