La Cucaracha primarily functions as a restaurant and is well known for its Mexican fare. Because of this, it is busiest from 6-9pm and then really winds down. Average entrée prices range from $8-14 (they’ve also won a few food awards). The décor is festively Hispanic and the music is typically Latino. There is plenty of seating and smoking is sectioned to bar only. In the bar, music is bartender’s choice and can vary from Latino to classic rock. It is lined with large wooden booths and 50 different styles of tequila, all reasonably priced (no more than $12 a shot). The crowd is mostly older, ranging from 25-40’s who come in for the food and pinball. Overall, La Cucaracha is a good restaurant and has a good happy hour, but if you are seeking active nightly entertainment, seek somewhere else.

Had dinner at LC this summer. Ordered a beer and a mojito for my friend. After having the fresh mint mojitos at Barley John's these mojitos were horrible... especially for the price ($6+.) The food was subpar... the service was NON-EXISTENT. The only thing slower than the kitchen was our server and beyond the frustration of slow service was having to repeat our orders. Horrible experience, but my friend had fond memories of the place before the new ownership / management... back when you got free chips and salsa at your table... not for $6!

Terrible service, bone in my chicken, and got sick from the food later. This has happened twice and I will not be returning.
