I ordered enchiladas with three sauces. You can see it in the photo. When it arrived, it only had the one white sauce. I called and the lady said it was only for cinco de mayo. I asked why it was the photo for the item and she said I was wrong and it wasn't. Now I have a screenshot proving her wrong. Food is good but far far far too rich for only the white sauce. Bummer, it would've been great with the three sauces like the picture. Edit: they also didn't put any avocado even though I paid for it / it's included in the menu description. read more

Hands down, the best Mexican food I've had in the Pacific Northwest. I come from an area with a large Latino population, so I'm used to high-quality, fresh, deeply flavorful Mexican cuisine----and La Mansion completely blew me away. I ordered the Wet Burrito (foreground of photo) and the Chile Relleno de Camarón (background). Both were, without exaggeration, the best we've ever had. The flavors were vibrant and balanced, the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh, and the spice profile had that perfect layered depth you hope for but rarely find. On top of that, the prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion size. We're already telling everyone we know to come eat here. This place is a gem. read more

La Mansion - Wet burrito (foreground) and Chile Relleno de Camaron (background) - Mexican Near Me - Lacey, Washington

Morning After...we are still talking about how delicious our meal was last night; prices comparable to other local restaurants. I should have taken a picture apologies folks. I tried a( new to me) restaurant. Four adults we order different meals. Carne Asada, Fajitas , ceviche shrimp soup (served cold), ceviche tostada, and pork street tacos. Spanish rice perfection/beans-average (We shared), I don't think we have eaten this quality of freshness locally ever and the meat out this world, carne Asasda at a restaurant that specializes in seafood? YEAHHHH!!! Hey, they make the tortilla chips fresh! Salsa not spicy and fresh! Downside: street tacos have to be all the same; variety is limited to choice of one kind of choice meat. We will be coming here again. (PARKING IN THE BACK.) read more

10/10, best Mexican food I've had in a decade. Server was attentive, order was no hassle, and the restaurant was clean and welcoming. Everything about it was just nice read more

This is the best Mexican food I've had in 7 years in Lacey. It tasted awesome, excellent flavor and portion sizes. Highly recommend going!

On a small town street, quiet as a held breath, with the rain falling in hard, bright drops through a break of sun, I found a bit of Heaven and knew it for what it was. At La Mansión the sea comes to the table the way a good story comes to a man: simple, unhurried, certain of its strength. The meat arrives with the skin kissed with a hard sear that speaks of a cook who understands fire. You cut into it and the steam rises like breath on a cold morning. The shrimp follow, fat and proud, tasting of salt and distant tropical waters. Everything comes hot - honest heat, the kind that says the kitchen still respects the work. The tortillas are soft and warm in the hand, almost too tender, like something you should be grateful for. Beans and rice sit quietly at the edge of the plate, humble and subdued, unwilling to steal the thunder of the seafood or the meat. They know their place and keep it well. The portions are generous, the sort of generosity that comes from people who have known the gnawing hunger after a hard day's work and refuse to let you feel it. The flavors are robust and clean - no tricks, no overthinking. Just good food made by people who have faith in the craft. The staff moves through the room like old friends who know when to speak and when silence is the kinder thing. They check in just enough to make sure you are well, and no more. There is comfort in that. La Mansión is the kind of place a man returns to, not because he must, but because he wants to remember the taste of the sea and the warm weight of a good meal. Perhaps it isn't Heaven per se...but it is something close to it. Not the true place, maybe, but the kind a good meal can give you, quiet and steady, reminding you of the better things a man can still carry inside. read more

The quesadillas were not very good. The flour tortillas were so hard to cut my brother had to use a knife and fork. The taco salad had to be deconstructed and cut up and placed back in the bowl. The beef strips were served in strips and had to be cut into pieces and I still have no idea why there was a sliced up mushroom on top. My friend's street taco was open faced with very little filling and the sauce was much too spicy. I had the Cameresa Ala Crema which was wonderful fortunately. We will not be going back. The service could have been better too as we waited forever to get a refill cup of salsa. read more

The food was just ok but the atmosphere sucked and they had uneven floors that were dangerous especially for my elderly mother. We went once and won't be back. read more

The restaurant has appeared to have been recently renovated. There are new booths, tables, and menus. Everything looks elegant, clean and tastefully decorated. We ordered Micheladas (La Mansion with oysters). They were over-the-top generously crafted, and super delicious compared to other micheladas we've tried. These were one of the better ones out there. I got a molcajete, which was very tasty. My husband got street tacos and a half dozen of raw oysters. The server was courteous. We had a few hiccups with what was available on the menu so it took a little for my food to arrive after I had to change what I originally ordered. Overall, this is a nice restaurant to come check out if you like mexican seafood or just Mexican food. read more

The food and service was amazing. I had the fajitas which were very tasty and my son was very happy with his meal.

I want to say at the outset that my family adored the food. Mexican seafood is uncommon in most of the US and most people do it poorly. But everything we ate was delicious from the ceviche tostada to shrimp tacos to crab legs to fajitas ... the food was superb. The problem is management. The menus have not been updated to reflect new pricing and the owners way of getting around this is posting a "sign" (8x11 sheet of paper on the front register) that lets diners know the prices have changed (even if not reflected so on the menu). Our bill was $40 more than we expected and that is a lot for a family of five. When we asked our server, she admitted that she should have been more clear when we were ordering. She offered to reduce the price of two items to the original menu price, but that was only $15 off the first bill. read more

Love coming here when I'm in town! Pros: Always easy to get a table, big menu, food is consistent and always hot. Cons: They add cheese to their fajitas which is a major downer for me and their guac is a bit bland. read more

One of the best kept secrets for Mexican food in Lacey, WA. Really good food, clean and excellent service. Five stars plus.

Delicious food, cozy ambiance, peppy music. My husband took me here for a date night and they had the freshest guacamole and a very nice tart margarita. My husband has the enchiladas a la crema and I had 3 adobada tacos. read more

Best enchiladas ever. Seriously - we've been to many many Mexican restaurants and the red sauce here is the best.

Came here on a Saturday evening. As we walked in we were warned that our food may take a while to be prepared. Sounds like maybe they were short staffed. The lady that greeted us at the door was the same lady that waited on us. There were a few other diners. Our order was taken in a timely manner. Soft drinks are sold by the can or bottle, so no refills. The chips were very crunchy and darker in color than most other restaurants. The salsa was good but did not pack any heat and left more to be desired. I decided to go with the seafood chimichanga. It has been a while since I have had one. It was packed with a seafood mix and cheese. It wasn't really what I was expecting and a little different than what I have had in the past at other establishments. The refried beans were a little salty and the rice portion is extremely small. We also ordered some ceviche, which was good...but for some reason was brought out after the main entree. We had the la mansion platter, wet burrito, LA burrito, chicken chimichanga, 3 tacos--chicken tacos (thought it was supposed to come with rice/beans but didn't) and the shrimp burrito. Everybody seemed to have liked their food, but noted that it was salty. When the food came out, it had a nice presentation. I would not say that the food was as good as I would have hoped for it to be. Not sure if this just wasn't the right night to visit but I can say it was a little disappointing considering there are many Mexican restaurants in the area. Customer service, outside of the wait time, was pleasant. read more

If you want seafood and Mexican this is the place! Some of the best ceviche on oysters I've ever had, shrimp and cheese dip--soo gooey and yum-o, and the Coctel Cameron omg. Great portions, homemade chips and a swordfish on the wall to boot! Visiting a friend here and she misses Mexican food back in Nevada, so this was a great choice. read more

This is THE BEST Mexican restaurant in the Pacific Northwest! We have been to many Mexican restaurants here in the Lacey/Olympia area, and there is no comparison. La Mansion makes everything fresh daily, and you can taste the love they put into their dishes. read more

First off, just for location reference: newly painted White House and sign is missing. It is an intimate place. The server was very friendly. My friend and I ordered taco salads. The online menu listed different ingredients verses the table menu. However, it was still very delicious! All of the ingredients looked fresh and tasted amazing. There is enough left over for another meal, so it's great value for your buck. We plan to return! read more

Food, service, and ambiance was wonderful. Highly recommend and will be coming back. Margaritas, chicken fajitas, and carne asada were all flavorful and fresh. A top notch place. read more

Visited this place 8/27/2021 for a late lunch. The place was clean and neat. Service was excellent. We ordered beans and rice (beans was watery don't know if it needed to set) which were made fresh, guacamole, salsa and chips, and ceviche. All the food was excellent, made fresh, and tasted awesome, their ceviche was the best I've ever had in my books, and it was huge!!! Guarantee check them out again when we return to Washington!!!! Glad we found this hole in the wall and gave it a try!! Next time I'll bring the appetite to try everything read more

Food was good. My husband had the tilapia and I had enchiladas la crema. Specialties are definitely fish. Was surprised when tilapia was served whole with head on (and eyes staring at you). Music was good but very loud in main dining area - couldn't hear each other over it. Margarita was good. Service okay. Very casual atmosphere with soccer on the TV... read more

food was amazing!! some reviews do mention the time it takes to get your food. It does take longer than a typical Mexican restaurant, it's absolutely worth it! Everything is made to order and from scratch and it shows. So good! read more

We were in town visiting family and thought we'd try this place out. We were the only table seated and it was pretty quiet in there. My girlfriend was getting worried but when the food came her reservations were put to rest. The food was great and the service was friendly, I'd definitely come back if I lived in town. read more

We are not from the area and happened to randomly find this place after googling Mexican restaurants around Lacey and boy are we happy we did! La Mansions costumer service was excellent and the food was exquisite. Don't let the building deceive you, La Mansion was very clean and follows COVID protocols. If you're ever in the area and are in the mood for some fairly priced authentic Mexican cuisine THIS IS THE SPOT!! read more

I absolutely love this restaurant. They have the most delicious dip with shrimp and cheese that's so unique and tasty. I've came here twice already. I tried to come here a third time but they didn't have enough cooks that day and had to turn us away. I've had the fried tilapia with the shrimp on top and it was very delicious. I truly enjoy the food. Even to go portions are great and big! The first time we came here we sat in person and they also had delicious drinks. Very cute restaurant. It's my new favorite spot. You have to try that cheese shrimp dip! You will NOT be disappointed! read more

Good food. We enjoyed the fajitas for two. They do add cheese to the fajitas and I'm a dairy-free girl, but without the cheese, the fajitas are delicious. All tacos are solid. Seafood is fresh and guacamole is delicious. Staff are very friendly. They aren't very busy for eat-in whenever we go, but they do a fair amount of takeout. read more

This place is our new favorite! It is in a bit of a strange place on a busy one-way. We are thinking this is why it isn't as busy as it should be. The food is great, the service too! Not to mention dinner for two and one beer was only about 35$ which feels unheard of for a dinner out. The food was all very good! read more

We lucked into finding this place by accident. This is the only Mexican restaurant I am aware of in the area serving food from Veracruz, and it was SOOO good! We tried the octopus ceviche, shrimp a la crema, and the most amazing seafood soup I have ever had. And the other reviewer was right--even the refried beans were delicious. I usually give those a miss, but I couldn't stop eating them. There was no one in the place, so we decided to eat on the patio, and I'm glad we ate it there, because hot seafood always seems to get overcooked by the time you get it home. The seafood soup was HUGE! It could have fed 3 people. The menu is rather pricey, but the food is great. The only thing missing for me was a plastic lobster bib. By the time I tore into the crab and shrimp in the seafood soup, I was covered in splashes. So if you order the seafood soup, maybe bring your own bib or a roll of paper towels. read more

This place isn't your typical American Mexican restaurant. It's authentic, made from scratch. We got there and they fried up tortilla chips so fresh we had to wait for them to cool down. That with the fresh salsa was a hint of things to come. Small wait for our food, but did we mention from scratch? It was flavor town all the way. Very rich, not too salty, great blend of herbs and seasonings. We will be back! read more

We always drive past this place and it looks so lonely, today while hanging out with my little brother on his birthday I figured we would try it. He has been talking about wanting to check it out, he's a big shrimp cocktel and seafood guy so why not. We were greeted by the hostess as soon as we walked in, she said we could sit where ever we wanted. She came and took our drink order right away, brought us fresh chips and salsa amazing btw. At that point we had decided on our food choice He was having the cocktel de Camaron y pulpo And I was having the agua chiles. Food came out looking amazing and tasted even better. 5 stars all the way Friendly staff, Great Food! read more
