    Mango Smoothie

    The best Mexican food in the Evansville area. Top quality, fresh ingredients. Do not miss out on this place, and get you a Mango Smoothie while you're there. This is a locally owned gem.

    a variety of hot and cold food items

    Wow! So happy to find this casual dine Mexican restaurant that serves authentic food. I've driven past many times when I have been working in Evansville but never noticed La Campirana. But today I searched Yelp, looking for something different, and found it. Thanks, Yelpers! Everything from single tacos to Mexican entrees is available. There are pictures on the wall to help you make your decision. I ordered enchiladas and a side of refried beans. The enchiladas (4) were covered with chili pepper sauce and topped with roasted carrots and potatoes. The combination was delicious. The side of beans was very generous and tasty. There is a salsa bar, and everything is labeled, and includes heat level: mild, medium, hot, hot, or very hot. My only regret is that I didn't try the tres leches, which looked wonderful. Next time for sure. The employees are very friendly and helpfully explain menu items and make suggestions. So many choices! Will definitely plan to eat lunch here the next time I am in Evansville.

    I ordered a beef burrito and 2 Tacos ( cow tongue and mushroom). They have this a sauce/condiment bar so you can get what you want for your meal. I think I took a mix of 2 sauces in small containers and my meal was to go. By the time I got back to my hotel to eat the tacos first, they did not give me the mushroom taco. No worries, I wasn't charged because looking at receipt it looked like the guy never even included it in my order. Second, the meat in the burrito tasted like mostly tendon not actual meat. So I was pretty disappointed on all fronts. The tongue taco was also flat because everything was kinda soggy. If I feel compelled I will look at their menu again maybe there is something that will cause me to back and try something else.

    Salsa comes in small container and they have Coke products

    We were looking for a Mexican place to eat, having been rather successful with other restaurants around the area. The menu looked OK and the prices good - so we thought we'd give this place a try. I didn't realize it was a cafeteria style, almost fast food set up. Had I have known that, we would have eaten elsewhere. But since we were here and the food looked authentic (not fast food, chain restaurant style), we gave it a try. COVID rules - wear the mask upon entry and keep it on until seated. The queue was like a fast food place and they made your food like Subway sandwich style. Soda came in the bottle - possibly good possibly bad. No refills like a sit down place but also no over-charge. We found a place to sit - important since it was casual self-seated style. Our food was brought to our table in a fair amount of time. It's not like I wanted to spend a lot of time there, given it was not like a sit-down restaurant. Hubby got the quesadilla and it was as good as elsewhere. He makes his own at home which he overstuffs with chicken and veggies - this was not like that, of course. But it was better than what you'd get at Taco Bell. I got the chicken salad. It came in the edible shell so I was concerned about size. Often they consider the shell a big piece of the meal and barely put anything in it. So I don't really eat it - that's a problem. Good news - there was a fair amount of salad in it and not just shredded lettuce and chicken. I did taste the shell and it was nice and flaky - not just greasy like I've had before. So overall - it was better than I thought might occur - cheaper than a sit-down meal - but we had the offset of ambience and service, with came with the cheaper ticket. So come again? Nope. But definitely OK in my book.

    I absolutely love La Campirana, it is my favorite Mexican restaurant in Evansville. I've tried a variety of food items and drinks. My favorite item to order is the chipotle chicken quesadilla, with rice or beans. Service is quick and friendly, and you can order directly at the counter where they will bring your food out to your table. Seating is often limited here.

Don't be surprised by your small scoop of chips, just ask for more! Their policy is to waste less, so don't be afraid to go up and ask for more chips if you need them!

After finally stopping in to check it out, I regret that it took me so long to do so....mainly because of all the times I missed out on such outstanding pizza and dining experience!! Immediately after walking in, we were greeted with a loud "Hello" by all of the workers. From there, we were given all the time we needed to examine the menu before choosing the perfect personal pizza. The friendly employees making the pizza were eager to create the perfect one for each customer. From there, it is handed back to the employee working the brick oven. I chose the 11" Caspian (mozzarella, gorgonzola, bbq chicken, barbecue sauce, sliced red onions). I didn't change the suggested ingredients, but I loved having the choice to do so. You have the choice to change anything on the pizza you choose or build your own with as many toppings as you want for the same price. Not having to pay per topping is amazing!! My pizza was perfect, delicious, and just the right size! YUM! I highly recommend getting their fresh blackberry lemonade to pair with the pizza of your choice. I thought it sounded like it might be too sweet, but it was so refreshing and delicious! There are also personal to-go boxes available at the drink station in case you need to pack up your leftovers and take it with you. This place is everything I could ask for in a "fast food" pizza place and has easily become one of my favorites! Don't make the mistake of waiting to try it like I did; get in there and get yourself a delicious personal pizza!!

Funnel cakes are made with a funnel. What you have is fried toast. 2nd my breakfast came cold, Not even the butter on the top of the potatoes would melt. I sent it back. Instead of preparing an entirely new plate as should have happened it was microwaved and returned to me. So my over medium eggs became hard eggs. The sausage was not freshly prepared but have been sitting on the grill, kept slightly warm and dried out , in other words it had been precooked and it was awful.. It was clear that I was very displeased. Consequently,, the restaurant comped my bill without my asking. Not sure what I would recommend except that the basics of the food hot and not cold making sure that it is perfect - over medium means over medium, not hard. Advertise something as a funnel cake then Google how to make funnel cakes otherwise advertise it as fried bread. Morr and more restaurants are going to having the bacon and the sausage sitting on the side of the grill and that is just gross. Certainly staff were very nice and prompt for the exception of letting my meal get cold before they gave it to me. And I fell that they were trying hard. Would I recommend them to someone else? No. Would I return? No
