I have a well documented weakness for Mexican food but I am also known to be quite snobby about my…read moreMexican food. La Cucaracha is the reason why, I grew up in Leuven and frequented this restaurant regularly. As a result I compare all Mexican I eat with this joint and often I am disappointed. The food is really good, the menu has been unchanged for a long time but like they say: never change a winning team. By the way, if you do long for some variation, you can go for their daily special. I have tried most dishes on the menu, but I typically go for Antojitos Mixos which means mixed appetizer but I eat it as a main and I can guarantee, you won't regret it: it is a flour tortilla with 10+ dishes on it. You will be filled with Mexican goodness! The service is also on great: you can feel the warmth of the people serving you, they are helpful, friendly and polite. The only minor downside is that it is always packed so they are often super busy and it is sometimes difficult to grab their attention (also make sure you get a reservation!). After leaving Leuven, I still long for the great food and service. It is more than a nostalgic feeling, every time I go back the food manages to convince me that La Cucaracha is a great eat. Highly recommended.

There's a little shop in the back of the shop. Only minus: the place is dark, cold and feels unwelcoming. Add a cutesy name, a nice logo and some hipster font and this place would be a hit !

My burrito was good and service was fast. Also, the environment with just one table in the pretty…read morelittle grocery was very nice. However, I didn't fully realize the Go part of Mexigo and therefore was surprised that my burrito was pre-prepared and just heated up when I ordered it. The price of 3.50 euros was good and if you are in a hurry this is good but it is very important to understand that this is not a fancy sit down restaurant with freshly prepared food. Being away from America, I was desperate for Mexican food and this was good but I will probably go to a fancier place next time I want Mexican.

Similar concept to chipotle and Moe's where you share what you want as you go through the line. I got the spicy chicken burrito and my sister got the bowl. Everything was so fresh and delicious. We thought about trying the Mexican pizza because we were intrigued but totally forgot about that option until we had order our food. Highly recommend if in Brussels!

The guacamole was absolutely delicious and could have passed for TexMex. The salsa I had was Chipotle and medium but the flavor was a bit too smoky and overpowering.
