    Food is soooooo damn yummy bro OMG; ordered the Drowning Fatfuck sandwich with steak (Torta ahogada) and i pigged out on that shit. The mole sauce was delicious as fuck. Chairs are cute as hell and the artwork makes gives a great atmosphere. Waitress was very kind and meal only ended up being 44$ after tip to serve two individuals

    The tacos were out of this world extraordinary, the only bad thing was my rice and beans were ice cold when they were served to me. I will 10000% be back again!! Definitely recommend

    Molcajete Fajita

    This restaurant is extremely local to this nice city of ours. Had the Molcajete Fajita, didn't expect to actually get nopales (for the uninitiated: a type of cactus.) as it was mentioned, they dont always have it on hand. First of all the food was a MASSIVE portion, Absolutely amazing flavors. There are few Mexican places in this city that really keep up with the genuinely authentic taste. The staff here are surprisingly attentive, within about 5 minutes of finishing my food, two separate staff offered me a to-go box. I must say I don't prefer the very vibrant colors and designs when it comes to the booths and tables, but there's no doubt that each piece can be considered art. Many other reviews mentioned poor food presentation? but I didn't see a that myself. Food looked divine, I've attached a picture to reference this. Only disappointment was prices don't quite match the online comparisons I had found, roughly abt 5$ more on average compared to online menus.

    The food tasted awesome! My husband said the best enchiladas he's had! Something weird about the restaurant is that you had to pay 3.99 for chips and salsa... The waitress only speaks Spanish so you know it's authentic. Prices are normal in comparison to others. Tables are clean and decorated/painted cute.

    Chicken enchilada?

    Well Grub hub delivered it late, on its side, cold and missing items even though we live .9 miles away. Ps, the secret ingredient is cinnamon in the red sauce. That's not my jam for Mexican food. The chalupa and tostada and merged and maybe it was the tears of the chef that left, the hopefully once crunchy corn shell, into mush... but ewww... I was hoping this would be a great local place but nah. Thanks for ruining dinner Marie Callender... I mean La Pasadita.

    Oh my heavens, why have I been avoiding this place?!? This has to be the best Mexican food I have had in all of Gainesville. I ordered the Combo (chose the chicken chalupa, beef/pork tamal, & chile relleno). It was SO MUCH FOOD for $10.65. This could easily feed two people. My favorite was the tamal, it was on the sweeter side, but packed so much flavor. The chile relleno was probably my least favorite because I do not like a lot of cheese, and it is basically a cheesy stuffed pepper. I was a little bit surprised that the chalupa was not what I was expecting, it was a flat crunch corn taco piled high with taco toppings. By the time we got home it was not crunch anymore, but still very tasty. Finding their menu and navigating it online was a bit of a challenge so we drove up there, ordered, and waited in the car for the food to be ready. It did take a good 20 minutes or so for the food to come out, but once we got home it was still warm and more delicious than I remembered. Thankfully for you, I took pictures of the whole menu, so feel free to peruse below. The hubs loved this place so much that it will definitely be our to go order for v-day, so get ready for us La Pas!

We walked in, checked out the menu and placed our orders after asking the woman behind the counter a couple of questions. My wife ordered their K.F.C. (Korean Fried Chicken) and I ordered the Angry Bird after asking about the spiciness level. The woman told me it's spicy but added that if you like spicy food then it's manageable. We also ordered Diet Coke (no Coke Zero) in a bottle and a La Croix drink in a can. No soda machine here. We were given a number to place on our table and waited for our meals...and waited...and waited some more. I think it must've been like 10-15 minutes before we were served our meals and we got there before the heavy lunch rush! We shrugged it off thinking, ooh, it's fresh out of the fryer and the chicken and fries will be piping hot. Nope! Our meals were warm but not hot. My wife liked the flavor of her KFC but didn't think Korean flavors really shined through. Having lived in Korea for a couple of years, I think she might have a good grip on Korean flavors. My angry bird was indeed angry! The spiciness level seemed like it was 7 or 8 out of 10. It was so spicy to me (and I love spicy food) that it had me sweating, with beads of sweat flowing down from my gleaming head. The spice level took away from the flavors. We really wanted to like this place but our experience made us think this might be a "one and done" thing for us. Lunch for 2 came out to just over $43 with tip.

But now I have finally had the opportunity, and it was definitely worth it! Typically parked next to the old Hollander's Hydraulics building, this taco stand has been operating in the parking lot for the past month, and appears to be doing quite well. They now have their own porta-potty, mostly for themselves but I would assume guests would be able to use it as well if needed. Access from both sides of the road is easy enough as well as there is a cross-over of 441 right at the entrance to the parking lot. Their menu has all the regular things you would expect with a variety of meats... tacos, burritos, quesadillas, tortas, and tostadas. I went with an order of tacos and a burrito. Now, I have found that tacos have become a bit over-hyped, and therefore expensive for what you get. This was the case as well... while the tacos are good, I just found them to be a bit pricey for what you get. You definitely get a better bang for the buck when it comes to the burrito, and I was quite happy with it. When it comes to ambiance, well... it is a taco truck on the side of the road. There is plenty of parking, but nowhere to sit, so this is purely a grab and go kind of place for the time being. Perhaps as they become more established in the location they will have a chance to put out some picnic tables or something so people can sit outside and eat their meals. I will be returning when the timing is right, as it is on the way home for me!
