    Lengua tacos
    Steven B.

    Enjoyed my lengua tacos. Probably the most authentic in Cedar Rapids: corn tortilla, cilantro, onion and meat of your choice. You grab a jarrito out of the refrigerator and you are good to go. You pay up front at the cash register after your meal. The reason for my average rating is just the decor. The seats in the booths are torn and it just doesn't feel clean. But my tacos were indeed good.

    Stopped in here for lunch on our way to Green Bay after reading the reviews on Yelp. I wasn't disappointed nor was I overly impressed. It was like I was was walking into a small restaurant in Guadalajara, Mexico not the US. The food tasted authentically Mexican, not Mexican / American, which we get in most Mexican restaurants in the US. I had the Fajitas with steak, it came with beans, lettuce, tomato, rice, sour cream, and three warm tortillas. My wife had the One Enchiladas plate, it came with beans, lettuce, tomato, rice, sour cream. We both agreed that the food was delicious. The service was very quick, maybe that is why they do not provide chips and salsa when they take your order. If I'm in Cedar Rapids and felt like Mexican food, I would go here.

    So good and the ingredients are high quality. The service was extremely fast.. Both my daughter and I will be returning.. You pick out drinks from the attached grocery store while your meal is being prepared.. This is a family run business, ao there might be kids running around. This actually was a nice feature, because it feels like a family.

    This is the BEST Mexican restaurant in Cedar Rapids, IA. Don't bother going anywhere else when you are in Cedar Rapids. The food is flavorful, the portion sizes are perfect and they offer many options for beer. Our favorites include the tacos, chimichanga, mole chicken-wonderful flavor! The owners run the place, do the cooking and the serving and always manage to be attentive and accommodating. I've lived in the southwest and their restaurant parallels the authenticity of Mexican-American cooking. The only items I did not like were the Tres Leche Cake and flan, these are not made at La Guanajuato and the consistency was unappetizing. The only other thing I wish they did was make their own tortillas but that's ok, their other flavors make up for it.

    Found the place on yelp with great reviews so we stopped to get my son tacos. The place is part grocery store and restaurant- people were very nice and friendly and my son loved the tacos! Authentic Mexican food :)

    Less tienda, mas taqueria. They are reducing the space on the Mexican store and adding more seating for the restaurant. This is a family owned and operated business and a nice addition to the growing diversity along this stretch of Center Point Rd which also has an Indian restaurant and grocery, an Asian restaurant and a KFC. Hey, Kentucky is practically its own country, they have their own language anyway. For authentic tacos and friendly service come here.

    best menudo ever

    Huaraches and burrito were great - with pork!TV is a bit distracting for young children. But otherwise, great environment with great music.

    Excellent Mexican food. Good service. Fun to be able to order Mexican sodas. Only disappointment was no free chips and salsa.
