Cabeza Grande, nestled at 23 Heartland Blvd in Cochrane, AB, is a vibrant Mexican restaurant that has quickly captured the hearts of locals. Reviewers rave about its authentic flavors and lively atmosphere. A standout dish mentioned repeatedly is the corn rib steaks, where one guest expressed a longing to relive the experience. The steak tacos also receive high praise, although opinions vary on the fish tacos, suggesting they might not meet the same high standard.

The ambiance combines a casual bar vibe with friendly service, making it ideal for a relaxed meal with family or pets on their spacious patio. Customers appreciate the attentive staff, like one solo diner who enjoyed a customized Carne Asada Taco, transformed into a burrito at a reasonable price. Many guests find themselves enamored with the Bulldog margaritas during “Margarita Monday,” emphasizing the quality over fast-food chains.

What an amazing experience! The corn rib steaks were to die for! The steak tacos were also amazing. Do not get the fish tacos. They didn't live up to the expectation. They have a nice patio where you can bring your dogs/cats. The interior is a casual bar vibe, but this is patio season! Amazing service as well. Will definitely come back.

Had a very pleasant solo experience. Waitress was very attentive and made sure all my needs were met. The music inside was a tad bit loud but personally I didn’t feel like it affected my experience all that much. Ordered the Carne Asada Taco but as a burrito for an extra 7.50. Definitely worth it from my point of view!

Just had a great meal with tacos and taco combo plate. And it’s margarita monday ! Bulldog margarita was fantastic. This is not Taco Bell junk but really good quality food with proper seasoning and portions. Will definitely be back

Had a craving for some good tacos and Mexican food, and this place delivered!! We absolutely loved the atmosphere and vibes when we walked in. It was very welcoming and friendly. The service was top notch, very attentive and friendly, wanted to chat and get to know us. We ordered the guac and Mexican street corn ribs to start, and I kept saying that I wish I could rewind time and eat them both over again because of how delicious they were. I will be ordering those corn ribs again, but won't be sharing HA! They had a wide selection of tacos, and all three I tried were banging! We're new in the area and we truly can't wait to go back! Thanks for having us, and see you again real soon!

We as a family recently dined at Cabeza Grande in Cochrane, and it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish! The food was a true celebration of authentic Mexican flavors—fresh, vibrant, and expertly prepared. Each dish was bursting with taste, from the perfectly fried nachos to the creamy, homemade guacamole. The presentation was equally impressive, adding an extra touch of artistry to the dining experience. The service was top-notch! The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring we felt valued and comfortable throughout our meal. They were knowledgeable about the menu and happily provided recommendations tailored to our preferences. The atmosphere of the restaurant was warm and inviting, with a beautiful blend of traditional and modern decor that made it a perfect setting for a relaxed meal. I can't recommend this place enough. It was the service by Brittany and Paulina that made it worthwhile. A huge thanks to both!

Delicious tacos and fabulous drinks! Nick was fabulous at reading the room and providing us with spot on food and drink suggestions! We were treated amazingly well and what a fabulous way to spend a girls night and birthday outing!!! The food was spectacular and the drinks were tasty and definitely did their job!!! Thanks again for a wonderful evening that we remember for years to come!!!

We had an amazing experience at this great local business in the heartland! Our server, Brit B., remembered our entire family from our last visit, even the kids’ names, our drink, and food orders. Despite the busy atmosphere, the staff worked efficiently to get all our food and drinks to us promptly. To top it off, both kids got to colour and use stickers while they waited for their food. They even had games to pass the time! Highly recommend trying this place :)
