My current favorite place for Mexican in Champaign-Urbana is La Cocina Real, off University and near Lincoln. Previously the location had been a Dos Reales, but that changed over a year ago.
My weekly lunch partner ordered the Mucho Grande Burrito with steak and yes, it was big.
As for me I had the Tacos Azteca, which was basically a fish taco. There were three, filled with tilapia, shredded red cabbage, and other items. There was a zingy sauce on the side, flavored rice, and slices of avocado. Everything was tasty and spicy. At about $9.00 it wasn’t a bad meal.
The service has always been great. This time I wound up dropping my silverware and after I picked it up a waiter had a new bundle for me. Fast service, good food, it’s worth going to La Cocina Real!
