Placed a pick up order burrito carne asada no hot sauce…read more Burrito was in the normal price point for today's super burrito prices around $16. Burrito was ready when quoted, about 8 minutes. I asked for salsa verde on the side and they remembered and had it ready which was appreciated. Let's get to the rest... burrito was good size, good amount of meat and good flavor, good rice, whole beans good...some of the meat had a bit of gristle or hard to chew fat and meat was in bigger chunks than most taquerias and made it a little harder to eat but other than that it was good. Salsa verde was alright. Next time I want to try their red salsa.

Mel was sweet, helpful, and prompt. She made some recommendations at our request and everything was fresh, flavorful, and made even better by the homemade salsa rojo and obviously scratch made guacamole. I am going to be thinking about the corn empanadas for a long time. One of the better dishes I've eaten in a while! My husband loved his taco Calle con chorizo, taco de manos con carne asada, and his taco birre. He also got the corn side dish that was fantastic. Our daughter was contended with her bean and cheese burrito- definitely welcoming to kids. Everyone else's dishes looked tasty and fresh. We will be back! Thank you, La Gloria! A new favorite for sure!

One thing I loved was the "Feed Me Tacos & Tequila" sign on the wall--it makes for a fun photo opportunity and fits the vibe of the restaurant perfectly. However, the tree branches partially block the sign, making it difficult to get a good picture. It would be great if they either lowered the sign or trimmed the branches so guests could fully enjoy it as a photo spot. Unfortunately, the cocktail was a major disappointment. It looked gorgeous, but it tasted like there was little to no alcohol in it. I'm a lightweight and typically feel the effects of a single drink, but I finished the entire cocktail and didn't feel anything. It was supposed to be made with mezcal tequila but I requested a substitution, so I'm not sure if that change was overlooked. The birria tacos were just okay. They were a bit dry and could have used more cheese for better flavor and texture. The salsa was also very thin and watery, which was underwhelming and didn't add much to the meal. Overall, the ambiance and service were the highlights of the experience, but the food and drinks fell short of expectations

I love this restaurant, This is Southwest cuisine done to perfection. Think Chevy's , but with an extensive menu and food that is actually really good. There was nothing I would change about my visit tonight- it was memorable and fulfilling. For starters , we ordered the Margherita pizza. Not quite Southwest , but it works - trust me! The pizza is wood-fired! The cheese , tomatoes and basil are fresh. Oh , and the tomato sauce they use is just right. Seriously, the pizza here rivals some pizza that I have tried at Italian restaurants. I can't wait to try more pizza creations. For my entree, I opted for the chile verde enchiladas covered in a smooth tomatillo sauce. This enchilada sauce was so tangy and the pico de gallo and guacamole topped them off perfectly. The entree comes with Spanish rice and charro beans. My wife opted for the ribeye steak fajitas , and they were fantastic. The steak was marinated well and it was tender. The only thing that could have made this dish better would be homemade tortillas . Espana's serves up high quality food. Everything that I have tried so far has been phenomenal. The service that we receive is always prompt and friendly , and the food comes out fast -but not too fast. Tonight's meal was a five star experience. Please look at the colorful menu items below and make it a point to stop in and try for yourself.

As avid Central Valley Giants fans we have passed through Los Banos annually on our trek to the…read moreballpark. I have a fond core memory as a child stopping on the way home at Espanas for dinner. I remember a big spacious restaurant that had that special ambiance of character that I didn't know existed in the small town. I remember the staff being friendly and the food being quick and consistent of expectations with what I ordered. Fast forward to yesterday, our annual trip to the game, this time with my own boys (3&5). It was getting late on the drive home so we needed to stop for dinner. I told my pops about my memory of Espana's and I wanted to stop to see if it was what I remembered. My expectations were met with exactly the nostalgic memories I had of the place. The ambiance, the staff, and food were all exactly as I remember as a child. It's really nice to have this kind of experience at this day and age where everything is corporately owned, cookie cutter, and rushed! See you again next year!

We waited quite a while for our waiter to come back around so we could ask for to-go boxes, and eventually had to wave down another waiter for help. Once our waiter brought the boxes, I asked for the check and she said "okay," but then walked away, attended to other tables, and eventually stood behind the bar while we were still waiting. After waiting awkwardly for a bit, we finally got up and went to ask for the check ourselves, and she helped us at the bar. I think the biggest issue was just communication. Instead of simply saying "okay," it would've been helpful if she had said something like, "You can pay up front/by the bar when you're ready." That would have avoided the confusion and awkward waiting. Overall, the food was really good, but the service and communication could definitely be improved.

Staff is very friendly and explain the menu since I was a little confused (lot of spanish food items). Food was very fresh - salad paired very well with the rice and beans! There were 2-3 roasted onions on the platter and they were just too good. Food is filling, isn't too oily. Restrooms are clean. There was a very flavorful avocado chilli sauce (my guess) on the table which paired well with all the food. Food portions are very generous. Service was also fast. Multiple parking spots in front of the restaurant.

I was super disappointed because I had high expectations. It had avocado in it as well, which is nice for the super burrito, but it was not ripe at all and rice was hard. Tacos el pastor is a must try. I love the yellow corn tortillas and was very happy with that. Meat had good flavor and loved the piña. Staff was friendly and order was ready when quoted for pick up order. Salsas were good and the pickled carrots were a nice edition. Especially that they were not super spicy. Price was a little high but not out of the ordinary. Would I eat here again? Maybe... but it would not be a burrito.
