3/3/26 Tip- you will see the roadside sign, but there is no sign at the diner proper. The two Mexican women were immediately ready to serve, and very solicitous. Brought complimentary salsa and chips. The menu is extensive- I had the 'lunch chicken fajitas' - very good, very filling, but could finish only two, despite omitting the rice. This is a diner-type atmosphere- very clean, very attractive. This is worth a stop but only if you are ravenous! read more

A La Mexicana - My half drank margarita! I would have included a picture of my food but I ate most of it before I thought of it. - Mexican Near Me - Raymond, Maine

We highly enjoyed our Mexican dinners! The portions were massive! Service was great, friendly and fun. We had a lot of food come quickly to the table! Chips and salsa were plentiful. Considering we were in Maine on a short trip, we were excited to have found Mexican food. We hadn't had it in so long that this was a sight for sore eyes. It did not dissapoint. It also seemed like many locals came here. Loved it, and we will be back since we are moving to the area! Thanks for the great dinner! The fried ice cream was also huge and we enjoyed sharing it. read more

This place is the real deal we dropped by a few weeks ago and it's got something for everyone. They were super helpful and didn't mind the littles running around. Thank you guys great service read more

I am sad to report that the quality has really fallen off. Fajita veggies barely touch the grill and I haven't had seasoning on my last couple of meals. We are really disappointed because we used to love this place. They need to reevaluate. read more

Strangely, we couldn't find it because it is housed in a diner. While not expected, there was plenty of room with an outdoor seating area as well. I love a Mexican restaurant that doesn't skimp on free chips and salsa - and this one did not disappoint. The waiter brought out a huge bowl of tasty salsa and a massive basket of chips. All of the entrées that we got, were really good portion sized, and the prices weren't bad. The food was tasty. I had the combo #3 with a chile rellano, enchilada, and taco. All of the items were stuffed with filling. The ground beef was tasty and not greasy at all. Veggies were fresh. I sampled the steak burrito, and guacamole/ both were very flavorful. We would be back if in the area. read more

Mexican done right!! We enjoyed the chicken Beef or Chicken Fajitas very much. Nice portion sizes, ample filling and toppings. The chips were perfect! I wasn't crazy about the salsa as I prefer mine a little more chunky. Same with Guacamole Dip but the flavors were there so no deductions. I'll definitely be ordering again!! read more

Can you say holy margaritas and portion size! Was hesitant to try Mexican in Maine but was not disappointed we have been back many times. Frequenting both locations. Service is consistent and quick. Love the dinner vibe at a la Mexican. read more

Epic margaritas and great food. Good service and very clean inside. I have had the chicken enchiladas and also chili Colorado (spicy!) and both are excellent! read more

They have an extensive menu and a lot for gluten free folks. Good size portions! The food was good. Service was very attentive. The ambiance was fun. Like an old Mexican diner. Will be back! read more

Not bad, I would come back. Food was decent, prices fair. I'd rate closer to 3.5 stars as the food was above average. Two adults three kids. My sons fajita and my steak burrito were really good. Girls got tacos. My wife's combo meal she thought was OK. We drove past the initially as the sign was blocked by a tree, but it's in a 50s style diner all from the exterior and interior. The portions were bigger and everything came out pretty timely. read more

Would highly recommend this location if you have not already been. The food is very good, the service was fast and friendly, and the pricing is very reasonable for what you get. Have been here before and have always had a good experience, will be back again for sure hopefully soon! read more

Was craving for huevos rancheros at 7 pm and asked the friendly staff if they could still make it for me. Without hesitation, the order went through and I was happily eating my delicious meal a few minutes later! We'll definitely return whenever we visit ME again! read more

Good tasty food, large generous portions, take out available, closed Monday. I have to add words to make it 85 characters long.

Delicious and fresh food. Lots and lots of choices. The frozen margaritas are the best. You won't leave hungry! Staff is very nice and service prompt. read more

My family and I love this place. It's authentic Mexican homemade food. Delicious drinks as well.

The staff is the best. The food is the best. Sometimes they don't play music and that's awkward but when then do it's the best.

A La Mexicana isn't for us (but it's in a great location for so many folks without dietary restrictions enjoying Sebago!). When we arrived on a sunny summer afternoon (like 5pm) there was no one else there; there were also no indicators they were open. We entered an empty restaurant until we said, "hello?!" really loudly and then an employee materialized from the back, hastily handed us menus and silverware, and told us to go sit outside wherever we wanted (a dusty parking lot set to the sounds of the heavily trafficked 302). We ordered: - two house margaritas with salt: these were enormous! Oddly, though, one of our drinks came in a glass fishbowl, and one of our drinks came in a plastic fishbowl. One of them had salt, and one of them didn't. Both were in dirty. Neither tasted "housemade". - guacamole: we tried to order the Special Guacamole, but our server said "No" without further explanation. When I asked why it wasn't available they said, "We don't have it." Now... when we walked into this restaurant we saw the guacamole cart (which I assume is the Special Guacamole since it would be housemade in the moment); it was full of fresh ingredients like avocados, freshly chopped tomatoes, cilantro, onion, etc. If the business a) doesn't offer this option outside or b) didn't have the staff to make it, I wish they had just said that instead of being so rude (and possibly lying). I asked, "So do you not have guacamole at all?" And he said, "We have a guacamole like dip." It was a very tiny bowl of pureed avocado. We left wondering what was actually made in-house. The margaritas seemed like mostly sour mix, the salsa seemed like tomatoes run through a blender, and the "guacamole dip" seemed like it came from those little plastic containers at the grocery store where you peel off the lid. There's also not a lot of vegetarian options: essentially it's all variations of refried beans, rice, and cheese (PSA: always check that your refried beans don't have lard; often they do). On the plus side: the server who took over halfway through our snacks and drinks was absolutely FANTASTIC, and the complimentary chips and salsa were appreciated and unexpected since so few places do that anymore! read more

A La Mexicana - Complimentary chips and salsa and the BIG house margarita. - Mexican Near Me - Raymond, Maine

Camarones al Mojo de Ajo were delicious! Service was quick, not the friendliest though. Decorated in theme and not too noisy

So we ordered chips, salsa and cheese dip with jalapeños. It was expensive! 40.00!! I mean good thing I didn't get a beer n tacos! Service was fast. Place looked clean. We took our items home to enjoy. Kinda hard to enjoy when you have buyer's guilt. I should have just went to the grocery store and picked up items. read more

We came here during our weekend visit to Maine. I instantly loved the unique setting of a retro diner for the restaurant. They even had a large outdoor area. Right away the service was impeccable. Our server, Jeremy, was attentive and made some great guacamole. He also informed us that their margaritas have real fruit, so I of course tried the passion fruit. Honestly one of the best margaritas I've had. And food did not disappoint! They have really great combo options, including vegetarian ones. The portions were excellent and everything tasted awesome. read more

Excellent staff, service, and food! I was there with a friend and forgot to take a picture when the meal came because it smelled so good. I had the Beef Fajita with no rice, beans, nor tortillas. This order did not phase the waitress, which was refreshing! The meal came on 2 10" square plates that were heaped - 1 with well seasoned steak, onions, peppers, tomatoes and mushrooms sauted, 1 with shredded lettuce, pico de gallo, guacamole, and sour cream. Not only delicious, but also made 3 meals. My friend had chile poblano, chicken quesadilla & beans. She said it was excellent. I have eaten here before and have yet to be disappointed (I thought I had already left a review). Can't wait to go back! read more

Been going here since they opened. The only Mexican restaurant I've been too in a retro diner. I recommend the mole burrito. Also enjoyed the caso fundido. read more

A La Mexicana - Mexican Near Me - Raymond, Maine

Best Mexican Restaurant outside of LA (Los Angeles) / Mexico. Random browsing for tacos on Yelp, I stumble across this gem of a place. Let me start by saying that Mexican food is my favorite type of food, I lived in Los Angeles for 10 years, and I've been to some great places in Mexico. This is my wheel house. And this place is the real deal. Table side (fresh made) guacamole, taco had a perfect proportion of ingredients, flavorful carnitas, burrito - beyond words. Everything leaving the kitchen was perfectly done. Go. Now. read more

I went to a la Mexicana when they first opened the food was excellent, I went back this week the food has gone way down hill no bright colors on the plate the beans looked like gray cat diarrhea the food was bad! I don't recommend this place anymore read more

Food tastes like it's out of a can. Service is awful and the Margueritas taste like a mix from the Dollar Store. Service was equally sad. Ambiance is way overdone. Don't know how they stay in business. read more

Husband and I both happy we tried this place. Living in Arizona we know good Mexican food and we were not disappointed. I had the garlic shrimp, which was yummy and actually reminded me of the garlic shrimp we always seek out in Hawaii. Husband had a molé burrito and that was really good as well. Great service and the food was delicious. I'm confident we will be coming back! read more

It's nice to have a spot outside of Portland to grab some mexican cuisine. Everything about the food is pretty typical. They've got the tacos, burritos, enchiladas, fajitas, etc that you may be looking for. Can't beat their lunch time prices! The location will catch your eye, but you may drive by not realizing it's the destination... It looks like an old 50's diner! read more

I was excited to try this restaurant after reading all the great reviews. We were pleased with the tasty margaritas. The chips and salsa were great. It was the hair in the refried beans that really turned us off. I didn't eat 1/4 of the meal after seeing the hair. I pointed it out to the server. I did not expect a free meal but something. Nope. Then my husband and I both got sick that night. Ugh. It was awful at 3Am. read more

This is a restaurant right in our backyard of Windham and we finally decided to try it when making dinner at home just wasn't going to happen. The Jetstream diner look is a little retro and a little strange for Mexican, but it worked for me. We were seated quickly and the booths were super comfortable. The only problem we had with service was getting waited on initially. It took WAY too long. But once we got our chips/salsa and our drink order in, service for the rest of the meal was outstanding. One of the most memorable moments was when the draft beer was delivered to my spouse. I don't think she expected a mug of beer that huge! My margarita was also large and very good. The entrees we had were fine. Large portions and we left satisfied. I'm glad we finally tried A La Mexicana. We certainly liked it enough to keep it in our back pocket for those times when dinner doesn't defrost as expected or we just don't have the interest in cooking dinner. read more

So the family member who moved to Raymond says "there's a great Mexican restaurant right in town". We were skeptical - but wow! Pulling into the parking space we see why looks like an airstream trailer in steroids! Walk in and the place just works - you wouldn't think diner and Mexican, but it works! The supreme guacamole was some of the best I've had. Chips and salsa were not just thrown out there. Inventive combo plates - I had an enchilada, burrito and tamale. The tamale was PRIMO! Wayne has the California burrito-ginormous. One miss was the fajita salad - not really a salad, but tasty! BTW, the 4 year old tolerated the corn dog but loved the fries read more

Great mexican spot for the area. I loved the diner car, their margs are great, huge portions, quality meats, and large menu. Def a great value and their outdoor space is great in the summer. read more

I wanted to try a cheese enchiladas but ended up with fajitas that were ok. Not enough extra guacamole or sour cream and pretty tasteless unless lots if hot sauce. read more

When you first sit down, a server brings over a huge bowl of tortilla chips and fresh salsa. We ordered the small guacamole dip to pair with the chips and salsa. The chicken soup balances spice and salt really well and is topped with a generous amount of fresh avocado. My husband didn't care for the chorizo that came with his meal. It had a unique flavor- almost citrusy. Portions are large and prices are reasonable. Great Mexican/American food. read more

Honestly this place is just plain awful. The salsa had tomato paste vibes, everything was colorless and the red sauce was not edible. The food is not even close to Mexican . I guess it's "Maine Mexican" 2 out of 6 of us were physically ill after eating the worst food we ever had. The diner itself is super cute but it doesn't really fit the "Maine Mexican" cuisine:( read more
