Stopped by after a day out on the shooting range and ordered the street tacos and taco salad with grilled chicken. We didn't wait long for our orders but we enjoyed the food very much! The restaurant dining area is fairly open and accommodates small and large groups. The staff are friendly. There are tv monitors within and it wasn't too busy around the time we were there so it wasn't loud at all. Would definitely stop in again to try other menu items! read more

Don't come here. The customer service is terrible. The guy forgot to bring us our drinks and chips even after he brought us our food. The food was not the best the meat in the posole tasted old. We went on a Saturday morning at 11am I ordered menudo and paid for it. Then 10 minutes later the guy said that they were out. How dumb it's that so he gave us some old ass posole with no flavor. Definitely don't waste your time and money here. read more

Mexican here and I approve this place damn good. I've been here a few times but my first time catering this place was on 6.4.26 and let me tell you, everything hit so good. The family and friends all took left overs! The service is always pleasant and the ambiance is chill, it's clean and yes they have a few brews if you need a cold one after a long day. Come and enjoy! read more

Came in for a late lunch as my older sister shared she likes to come here sometimes for fish tacos. When I first entered, the lady behind the cash register did not greet me nor welcome me as she was talking to another guy there so I made sure to say buenas tardes. I then asked if they served birria there as that was what I was craving. I got the quesabirria tacos with rice & beans, a carnitas taco & a pineapple water. My mom order the bowl of birria. As for the flavor of the food, it was a bit too salty & did not taste the best. I was a bit disappointed with the birria tacos with handmade tortillas bc the tortilla was super thick & the meat was a bit salty, the rice was dry, & the beans were also kinda salty. The carnitas taco was not good at all, the meat had a funky smell to it. When we went to say something about exchanging it or getting a refund, the staff did say it was probably the way it was cooked & exchanged it for a carne asada taco which was still not that good. My moms order was also very salty and the meat was just huge chunks!! My mom was not satisfied at all. My sister's fish taco was bland and looked old. She did let the staff know & the lady said that is how they always make it. My sister ended up not eating and ended up feeling a bit disgusted. Aside from that, there is seating inside & a table outside. There is plenty of parking. Overall, not the best experience & feel disappointed that we spent that much on that food as the food was very pricey compared to other tacos shops I've been to. read more

First time here definitely exceeded our expectations! The Pazole soup is to die for cannot wait to try the other soups! Excited to hear that they always have their soup seven days a week that's hard to find at most places. The meats were super tender and flavorful all the tacos were amazing. Definitely excited to come back. read more

Absolutely delicious handmade tortilla tacos, rolled tacos and shrimp cocktail. Beer on tap as well as agua frescas to wash it all down. Very friendly staff, we will definitely be returning next time we make a trip to town. read more

La Bamba Tacos And Beer - Handmade tortilla tacos - Mexican Near Me - Murrieta, California

My son and I were quite hungry when we arrived at La Bamba. I was torn between the flautas and the super nachos. My son ordered the super fries. I ended up getting the nachos, and was blown away by the size of our plates. We could have easily shared. Needless to say, we came home with leftovers. La Bamba has a great variety of food; including menudo and pozole, desserts, adult beverages, and they even have HAPPY HOUR! I have to comment on the service. I wish I caught the name of the woman who served us. She was incredibly friendly and kind. Thank you, La Bamba for a lovely meal. We give it two thumbs up! read more

Jessica was phenomenal! After a hard, long day and being so hungry Jessica made sure we were taken care of, from the minute we walked in to the time we left she was exceptional. I honestly haven't had customer service like that in a long time! Thanks so much Jessica for ALL your help! read more

First time in this place and I love Mexican food , it's average made me bloated the whole day and what got me pissed off it was happy hour and she charged me $8 a beer it's kinda expensive for happy hour. Imagine how much they charge when it's not happy hour , the place was slow. I should've got the hint but I thought I'd give it a shot but I will never go back there. read more

I've been ordering from here regularly for the past couple of years. I enjoy the street tacos and I would always make it a combo. Because I would order enough for a couple of meals, I would generally also order containers of salsa. It was $3.99 for an 8 oz. salsa. That's a good price to me. I went on DoorDash today and it's $7.99 for 8 oz. of salsa. I then checked their website and it's over $6 for that size of salsa. The fact that I can order a container of salsa is one of the reasons I order from there. However, I will not pay double what the price was just a couple of months ago. It's not at all worth it. I won't be back. read more

This place has the best pozole. We get it every Sunday and it never disappoints. The flavor is always rich and comforting and it honestly feels like a tradition for us now. The staff is also amazing. Everyone is friendly, and welcoming. The service is consistently great which makes us keep coming back. Highly recommend if you want great Mexican food and a place you can count on every time. read more

The food is good, the staff are friendly, but the prices are crazy, dang $18 for a bean and cheese burrito. Absolutely bonkers. They've doubled the price of the most basic burrito in just three years, and it was already expensive then, now it's more expensive than a monster burrito at Primos. A bean & cheese burrito should be like $5 tops, and that's still earning a 500% margin. read more

La Bamba Tacos And Beer - Menu - Mexican Near Me - Murrieta, California

Dont waste you time nor money here, I should have asked for a refund the moment the lady handed me my food, here hands where all dirty. Food was flavorless, barely any meat it was cold and can tell it was not fresh, tomatoes were mushy as well. read more

So excited that I found this place during my pass through at Murrieta. If your driving along, after or before you grab coffee at Dunkin stop by here! I was greeted by a very friendly face. Since I was new, she gave some recommendations. We went through their trending item quesabirria taco! The taco was great, very flavorful, in addition to the consommé. It was not greasy and just right. Don't forget to check in and grab your free churro. It was fresh and tasty. Definitely coming back whenever I pass through Murrieta. read more

La Bamba Tacos And Beer - Mexican Near Me - Murrieta, California

Bomb tacos!! I grew up in southeast SD eating some of the best Mexican food!! When we moved up here a few years ago, we haven't found a good spot.. until now! The BF and I have been taking full advantage of Taco Tuesdays ($1.99 per taco for select meats) for the past month so I can only speak for the tacos. Would recommend the carnitas -- they're super juicy and moist! Oh and grab some carrots at the salsa bar (you won't regret it). The employees here are super friendly and chill, but the service can be a hit or miss. The first time we went, it took over 30 min for them to bring out 7 tacos. The last time we went, they forgot my order and only brought out my BF's order. I waited another 5-10min just incase my tacos were coming out separately before checking on my order. In both situations, the same young gentleman sincerely apologized. Super nice guy!! We totally understood things happen, but wanted to make note. I would assume there's been a lack of communication between the front of the house and kitchen staff? Anywho, I'd highly recommend giving this place a shot! read more

Great daily deals Monday through Friday. All homemade mom and pop shop. I love how they are a hidden treasure! Great salsa and tacos!

My husband and I went out to eat and he was in the mood for a burrito. Since we were in the area, we decided to try out La Bamba since it was near the top of the list for reviews. We ordered directly through the Yelp app and were able to get our order in while finishing up our appointment. We were given updates on the order with a timeframe for when things would be done. Once we got there, parking was easy and the restaurant itself was clean. They already had our order hot, fresh, and ready just like they updated us on. The Al pastor burrito was extremely full and bursting with a lot of flavor. It was a good mix of ingredients, and they went heavy with the meat, which garners the price. The fries were similar, with all the toppings being very loaded. I'm usually a big eater, but I could barely finish half of my box. The salsa they provided on the side gave a really nice kick without overwhelming the flavor. I'm very happy with the food, and if I'm in the area again, I'll definitely have this on my list of places to go! read more

It was a Tuesday and my Inner Homer Simpson voice cries out "taco". This prompts me to ask my wife, "how about Mexican food tonight"? She loves ceviche and my research shows La Bamba Tacos and Beer does a good shrimp ceviche tostada. I order her that and I order the chicharron handmade taco and a breakfast burrito (stupid Homer). Order arrived via DoorDash as promised and we dive in. Wife loves her ceviche and comments that it is enough for two meals. My breakfast burrito is good but not great but I did enjoy the chicharron taco. Crispy pork and pico satisfied the inner Homer in me. Price is higher than other taco shops but the wife liked the ceviche so, happy wife, happy life. Our first experience with La Bamba Tacos and Beer qualifies for a repeat. We will be back! read more

Was kind of disappointed with food and service. The person at the front was nice but she forgot to give us our drinks while others that came after us got theirs. The food was not the best quality, the meat in their hard shell tacos had a lot of fatty and nerve pieces. Rice and beans were meh. read more

I loved coming to this place. Always have sports on tv and the employees are very nice! Best Mexican food in the area that I know of. I always get a California burrito and it's always delicious. But recently the prices have gone up! I can't justify paying almost $19 for a burrito. I can no longer afford to eat here and it's so unfortunate! I'm going to miss that burrito. read more

Came here with my hubs yesterday specifically for tacos. We got street tacos for here and some to go. I tried the carnitas (super juicy), fried shrimp (crispy and yummy), and shredded chicken tacos. They accommodated my order of no onions. I liked their salsas, but they didn't have the biggest selection sadly. I also wish that they didn't charge you extra for orange bang refills or roasted jalapeños! The lady at the front answered all my questions, but wasn't particularly welcoming. She want mean! Just kind of standoffish, maybe she as having a bad day. Hey, everyone does! This place could have used a bit of a cleaning. Many of the tables were dirty and it wasn't super busy where they couldn't come out and clean. I do think this place would be good when having a big party as they had many signs advertising their big deals. I'd go back, but I don't think it's at the top of my list. read more

My husband and I took our son and his family there for lunch today and it was the worst Mexican food. It had absolutely no flavor and I mean everything. The salsa even the chips... Carnes auto was dry and chewy. my son ordered a burrito. I had chorizo and we couldn't identify the chorizo. Looks disgusting and bright red almost like it wasn't cooked. My granddaughter got chicken nuggets and french fries and ketchup with spoiled. I got Carnitas tacos in his first time that pork had absolutely no flavor and this also didn't help because it had no flavor.. My daughter-in-law asked for burrito with cabbage and they gave her cooked lettuce on it instead.. even the Pepsi was flat. You were lucky if you got two ice cubes in your cup with a soft drink. . And all this garbage cost me $200.!!! read more

I placed at large tray of carne asada for a graduation potluck. They made the transaction easy and smooth. Customer service was superior! They went above and beyond to work with the time I needed to pick it up. The carne asada was delicious and a big hit. Highly recommend and will definitely be coming back. read more

Food is generally good here but the prices have gone up quite a bit more than one might expect, even just for a bowl of soup. The posole and menudo is pretty good, but the el pastor meat on the soft tacoswas a bit dry. The happy hour specials is what I'd try first if you haven't been here before. read more

Meat has no flavor ( I had the Asada and Al Pastor tacos) and the handmade tortillas are not worth it. OVERPRICED

This place was so delicious! I came here Sunday during my lunch break and ordered a carne Asad bowl. I packed a few salsa containers from their fresh salsa bar. They also gave me a small bag of chips. The people were friendly and the food was fresh and delicious. I will definitely be back and recommend this place read more

Barley ever actually open at 9. They should change the hours or learn to be on time. It's unacceptable

Very good! Food was hot and not microwaved. Very fresh and salsa was terrific. 4.5 stars. I think the Chile Relleno was made to order. Worth the wait. read more

Came a second time. Still good but I would like to see it be a bit cleaner and less opportunity for Hair to get in the food. Rice could be a little bit better this time around it was towards the end of the night though. Lingua tacos are fantastic Margarita wasOK but got it to go anyway so I mixed it up with some other things at home. Salsa Verde tamale all that was good. So I would go again Especially since you can hit Dunkin' Donuts in the same parking lot for some dessert after. read more
