We went to La Mera with a large group and made the reservation weeks in advance. Our group was…read moresplit up amongst a bunch of tables. The main server took orders, got drinks to everyone in a timely manner and brought chips and salsa to everyone. And that was primarily the good part of the evening. The second part was actually bringing what we all ordered. It was quickly realized that anything that had lettuce in it was going to be sopping wet. The bowls were drowning in water. You know when you eat a bowl of Apple Jacks or Cocoa Puffs and the milk changes color to pink or brown respectively taking in the flavor of the cereal? Well, that's what happened in the burrito bowls. The water became a discolored mess of burrito "juice". It was gross to look at. Suffice to say, many had to get new burrito bowls. I ordered tacos. Two tacos came on a small plate and rice on a separate plate. I don't know why this place doesn't invest in bigger plates to hold all the food as all the separate plates take up a lot of space on the table. One person got fajitas and she had five plates. FIVE. PLATES. Seriously, WTH?! And of course, I had lettuce on my tacos and they were drowning. And before I knew I had to give my chicken and steak tacos life preservers, I had already added verde sauce. So imagine my seriously wet tacos now being infused with more liquid. They were gross. But let's go back to the time before I had my dinner. Our group took up four tables. Our table was the second one to order, but our food never came out. To give a reference, one couple arrived about 20 minutes after we ordered. They then placed their own order and received it before we received ours. So the main waitress apologized profusely and said she'd bring more chops and salsa, but she'd also bring over chips and guac. Which she did do. She brought chips (no salsa) and chips and guac. Then finally our meals came. I mean my meal and the two other people at our table. Well, sort of. One person never received the side of chips and guac. Just the one for the table for the unplaced order. My wife's meal took another ten minutes to arrive. However, a server who seemed perturbed brought her an al pastor (pork) taco. She said she'd bring ordered chicken. The server got upset and then quickly turned on her heel to bring the wrong plate back to the kitchen. She almost hit me in the head with the plate. Thankfully, I saw what she was doing and turned away just in time. So she was finally brought almost the right meal by the owner who had to make four trips as he kept forgetting to bring her everything she ordered. When the bill came, we were charged for the chips and guac. The one that was brought to the table as an apology, not the one that was actually ordered. It was quickly removed from the bill. The owner thanked us for our patience and then said that they were sorry about everything but didn't know they'd be so slammed due to homecoming. Um, we made our reservation weeks in advance. They were just understaffed for the evening and the kitchen doesn't seem to know that after you rinse the lettuce, you drain the water and maybe dab it with a towel to remove all the excess water. I'll say this: there are plenty of Mexican restaurants around that we'll never return here.

I also tried something called Vampiro it's kind of like a tostada it was actually really good and I would go back to try more stuff on the menu. The place was nice it's really cool setting I didn't interact with any of the servers just because we did the ordering on the kiosk. I feel like it is a must try place I would have to go back and try more stuff. Happy eating!

It's been a while since I've been here. The first time was during COVID lockdowns. We placed an…read moreonline order for a few milkshakes to go. The wait time said a half hour, and I was thinking "30 minutes for some milkshakes? No way, that can't be right." So I showed up after about 15 minutes... and walked out another 15 minutes later with the milkshakes. Fast forward a few years later, and thinking it was probably just an anomaly, decided to give this place another try. I love the old-school Tijuana vibe and decor, and the food is great. I really enjoyed my tacos, especially with the various salsas available. And $3 margaritas? Hell yeah. But I can't fathom why three tacos and a burrito would take over a half hour to prepare by even the most inexperienced kitchen staff. After we ate, we decided to order a milkshake to go, thinking that with only a few people left in the restaurant, it shouldn't take too long. It was finally served 20 minutes later. Both experiences - the one a few years ago, and the one recently - took place during dinner hour on the weekend. I'm genuinely curious if the inefficiency persists during busy weekday lunch hours when people need to get back to work. As I said, the food is delicious and there are plenty of menu choices I want to try. Life is too short, though. If I were to give it a positive spin, I would say that it's great if you have a lot of spare time.

I ordered the chicken enchiladas with green sauce. When I placed my order, the server said "good choice" and she was right. They were served with rice, beans and lettuce and really hit the spot. My friend ordered tacos and also commented that the food was really good. By the time we left, only one other party had arrived. Considering how slow business was, we noted that the service was pretty slow. Our server was attentive when we arrived, but once the food came and we ate, it took an awhile for her to bring the check and then awhile longer for her to process our payment. The place has a lot of visual interest from the moment you walk in, with scenic landscapes and photos of people covering all the walls. That made the ambiance fun in what is otherwise a pretty casual place. Overall, this was a good experience and I'd like to return. I hope others try it, too!

I really had some high hopes that may be over the years that had grown and learned and gotten better. Unfortunately, it really hasn't during a very slow weekday afternoon. I walked in and there was absolutely no staff at the front to greet you in any way shape or form. I also consider this very poor deterrent for crime and also very poor for security in general. Well, service was decent. It wasn't great. It wasn't quick. The food did come out quickly though. The food was good, not great. And although I did take home my Carnitas pork fajita bowl and looking forward to warming it up the next day, when I opened it up from the plastic container, they gave me the entire bottom was full of oil. It is really rather disgusting and while I do understand that they had to fry up the tortilla shell I would have assumed it would have been drained properly and did not contain this much oil. Also, I feel like the margaritas got significantly smaller. If you look at the picture on the menu, they have a completely different large glass being displayed versus the Glasses. They actually gave us with margaritas. So I really feel like the portions got smaller on the margarita while the price stayed the same, which frankly now makes it overpriced.

I went pretty early so there weren't any foot traffic, which always makes for good experiences but I'm curious to see how well they do under pressure. Breakfast was with chorizo, of course. For lunch, I ended up going with BLT and pork burritos, thinking my daughter might like the BLT. Turns out, she likes pork. BLT was alright, only because it's not any of the traditional Mexican flavors, but pork was good. Best of all, I really like their hot salsa. I personally think having great salsa is more important than food themselves. For this reason, I'll continue to try more items from their menu.
