    This is probably one of the best Mexican food spots I have had in a long time. This is small hole in the wall spot which is probably why it's soooo good. You walk in and have to order at the front, and seat yourself. The wall has all the menu items with pictures and prices plus specials written out by the register. Once you order and get your number you are free to get salsas at the salsa bar. The food came out fairly quickly for the stews we ordered. Fresh made tortillas with carne en su jugo and the birria. Carne en su jugo was 10/10, it had so much meat and bacon with green onions it was to die for. It comes with a side of onion, cilantro, avocado and lime to add to your liking. The birria looked amazing and came with the same sides to add. We asked for jalapeños to add and they served them super quickly. The food was delicious and service was super friendly. Will definitely be back again and again when in the area!!

    Shrimp Fajitas

    We came in on a Saturday late morning. They are in a shopping center so there are plenty of parking spaces. They have no outside seating, but maybe 15 tables inside. You wait in line to order, go to your table and then they will bring your food. They have a salsa bar, however it did not seem very fresh. The lady taking your order was very nice and the food came SUPER quick. I mean in less than 5 minutes. I ordered the shrimp fajitas. The plate comes with rice and beans. The beans were delicious. You get lots of shrimp, so definitely a filling plate. My husband ordered the fried fish. It was cooked well and tasted good. We did not like the tortillas, they were thin and felt stale. We ordered 1 large aqua fresca to share and the food total was $38

    The food was alright but the bowls/dishes they served in was too big to finish. I appreciate the workers were nice to keep customers comfortable though. I also like how there's a spot of different kind of sauces you can pick for yourself and free drinks since I saw a lot of customers getting their own refills on sodas.

    Carolina Plate

    Came here on an empty stomach and left with a to-go box! I got the Carolina Plate and although it was a lot of food, which is a plus, it was great. The service here is excellent. The environment is casual and chill if you want to bring some buddies.

    I ordered cheese enchiladas with all beans no rice I did it on GrubHub they were here in like 20 minutes and it's delicious and I love it and I will order again I've never ordered on GrubHub they're trying not to drive at night or anytime lol but this is delicious and so would it chips and some of the salsa I will be recommending I'm glad I found you thank you!!Taqueria CarolinaTaqueria Taqueria CarolinaSuper Burrito CarolinaTaqueria Carolina

    Super Nachos. Taco Al Pastor. Fish Taco.

    This order was delivered. I think it would have been even better right off the grill! I didn't let that effect my rating. BIG PLUS: Carolinas is on door dash!! Ordered: Nachos supreme w/ carne asada Pastor tacos Fish taco I accidentally ordered nachos supreme instead of burrito supreme I know you don't order nachos on a delivery order. It's like ordering Carne Asada fries with delivery you know you're going to get a soggy mess. Like I said, I know it wasn't their fault! BUT I actually LOVED the nachos. Especially because they sent extra chips in a separate bag (maybe every order gets extra chips!). So I was able to use those to eat most of my nachos. They come with a layer of beans at the very bottom which was a perfect addition. I think a bit more cheese would have been made it better. Fish taco was actually grilled fish. I thought I was going to get a battered fish. It was a good size! But I wouldn't order it again. Maybe I would have had a different experience if it didn't have to travel. It had lettuce, pico and salsa. I didn't like the lettuce on the fish taco. Pastor is the way to go!! Very well done! I felt like it had a really good grill. It had great flavor. Came with your usual cilantro, onion, salsa. It was a big taco! Im definitely ordering these again. I forgot to mention that the tacos were a combo which came with rice and beans. They were really good!!! They reminded me of my moms rice and beans growing up. The beans had a yummy kick to them! My kids wouldn't eat them because they're too spicy but I LOVED them! I enjoyed dipping my extra chips in the beans.

    DoorDash order: AMAZING bacon breakfast burrito, super packed. Side of rice and beans delicious as well! The horchata tasted homemade. Overall perfect food and the salsas were excellent as well. I will definitely order again when I'm in the area. Thank you!

    My friends bought asada fries from them, its tasted like pee and we found a hair at the bottom and told the worker and she told my friend that she couldn't get a refund and walked away

Our table was right next to a metal utility rack they were using to store menus and cleaning products. That's fine, but my head was close to a spray bottle and a bottle of Lysol, which wasn't ideal. They were very busy, so we had high hopes for great food. Unfortunately, many of the items were bland. The beans and rice were especially underwhelming, with very little flavor--you can tell from the picture that the rice is basically plain white rice. My flautas were crunchy with fresh toppings, but the meat lacked flavor. My meal came with a bowl of fideo, but it wasn't delivered before my meal like it was for other tables. In fact, I had to ask for it after our food arrived, which makes me think I wouldn't have received it otherwise. After we finished eating, it took about 15 minutes to get our check. The servers were clearly very busy, but it would have been nice to leave sooner. Overall, I probably wouldn't come back. The noise level was overwhelming, and the food was just okay. If I did return, I wouldn't order anything that comes with beans and rice.

    Stopped by Fondita after a recommendation from my cousin and he delivered! Let's get into it…read more.. Ambiance - Fondita is a smallish restaurant, but can still cater to groups big or small. The maximum occupancy is 49 people, but it felt roomier inside than that. The decor is okay and the place seemed clean overall. Service - Service was pretty good. Our server was very friendly, and service wasn't bad. The only blemish was she did not check in on refills very frequently. I managed to get one, but my wife did not. By the time she asked again, we had finished our meal and were ready to go. A pretty small blemish, and not a dealbreaker for us. Food - The food was outstanding. My wife got the fajitas and they looked great! She loved them. I got the alambres and they were fantastic. Add in the homemade tortillas (both flour and corn) and it's an easy five stars! Their rice, beans, and salsa were all good too. No complaints at all with the food. Overall, I'd definitely come back again. The food was great, the people were super friendly and welcoming, and we were able to get a table right away. It's very close to the freeway, so when coming from out of town it's an easy on/off too. Great spot!

We came here on a whim last weekend, and OMG, I'm so glad we did. The restaurant is small and not in the greatest location, but the food was absolutely delicious and the service was excellent. I can't wait to go back! The tortilla chips are a mix of corn and flour, which was a nice surprise. Literally everything we ordered was so good! I went with the build-your-own combo plate and chose a cheese enchilada, beef taco, and beef flautas. My entire plate was delicious, including the rice and beans. The homemade tortillas were so fresh and tasty. Everyone in our party of four enjoyed their food. We split the three-piece quesabirria tacos, and they were excellent. I chose the gravy cheese enchilada for my combo plate, but I also tried my partner's green chili chicken enchilada--both were great. You can choose between red, green, or gravy sauce for the enchiladas, and I definitely want to try the red next time. Don't be turned off by the unassuming storefront and corner location. This place is serving up some seriously delicious food, and it's absolutely worth the visit!

I chose La Mesa because the first time we went I was very impressed with the delicious drinks and the short rib enchiladas. The atmosphere is so special and intimate whether you're on a date or with family. Both times we went, our servers were friendly and checked on us appropriately. Our server yesterday was handling making drinks at the bar and serving other tables that were there for Valentine's Day, but she still provided us with really good customer service (not sure of her name but she was wearing a pink shirt). We ordered a few drinks that included a strawberry horchata with rum, and a special one for Valentine's Day called the cupids kiss. They really stood out to me with how cute and yummy they were. For an appetizer, we ordered birria French fries. I was surprised that it had the consommé because I assumed it would make the fries soggy.... But it did not! They were AMAZING. The birria was tender and delicious, the flavor had a lot of depth in the consommé. For our entrees, we both cannot get enough of the short rib enchiladas with the mole sauce. They are our favorite. I really am just grateful that there is a restaurant like this that cares about the food they share with their customers. In the past, we ate at restaurants for my birthday where they didn't take as much pride or care about what they served. My birthday dinner at La Mesa felt very special to me and my boyfriend. Thanks a bunch we look forward to our return visit!
