Favorite place for tacos! They have both beef and chicken. My bf and I have only had the beef which…read moreis dressed with cilantro, chopped white onion, and served with salsa verde and a lime wedge on the side. They begin cooking when you order, so it does take a while but if you want fast food then you can always settle for Taco Bell. I've also had their pollo con tajadas; also very delicious! The baleadas were okay (I'm biased because nothing beats my mom's). That's okay because what I really stop by for is their delicious tacos!

There's a saying that if you want some good food you'll find it attached to a gas station. This was…read moredefinitely all facts! I wasn't looking for anything specific to eat but this place called to me so I whipped into the parking lot and headed in! This is such a homey type of place that puts a lot of pride and joy in their food and showing off Latin culture. Los Alvarez Exxpress Latin Food is a local mom and pop spot on the corner of Gardere and Burbank next to the S&P Food Store/Chevron gas station. I wasn't exactly sure what to expect going in but what I got was a lot of warmth and comfort. This is a place for Latin locals to relax and get a bit of familiarity and good food. I dined in and ordered the Granadas Catrachas. Catrachas are traditionally known as Honduran tostadas. Los Alvarez puts their spin on it by using Granada flour to create a puff pocket and stuff it with meat, rice and cheese and serve it with encurtido (Honduran pickled vegetables). I ordered one with chicken and one with beef. The serving was huge and absolutely delicious! I was only able to eat one. That, on top of the chips and salsa and black bean dip had me full for the rest of the day! Everyone that works there is friendly and for a second you don't feel like you're in Baton Rouge. This is a magical place.

This was a terrible experience. They don't have much on the menu, and they don't speak English. We…read moreordered our food, amd strictly said no beans. We also asked for chips and salsa, and they brought out what looked like beans, which looked disgusting. They brought out our food and served white rice instead of Mexican rice. My wife's food had bones in it. She ordered a Sprite, and there was something floating in the bottle. Since they don't speak English, they didn't do anything. To top it off, they charge gratuity.

What a hidden gem! This little Cuban restaurant off O'Neal Lane was an unexpected and delicious…read morefind. The menu isn't huge, but that's part of its charm--they focus on classic Cuban favorites and absolutely nail the flavors. The bowls were outstanding: generous portions, perfectly seasoned, and honestly more food than we could finish. The empanadas were crispy on the outside, flavorful on the inside, and disappeared quickly from the table. The yucca fries were fresh, hot, and perfectly crisp--some of the best we've had. The only challenge is finding the place. It's tucked away in the back corner of a small shopping center and easy to miss if you're not paying attention. Once you know where it is, though, you'll be glad you made the effort. If you're looking for authentic Cuban flavors in Baton Rouge, this spot is absolutely worth seeking out. Great food, generous portions, and a meal that will have us coming back again. Highly recommended!

There doesn't seem to be too much traffic so you could easily get in and out of here. The store itself isn't anything fancy, but it is authentic. The veggie selection is awesome, they're not selling all of your normal staples but what they do have is of good quality. They have a wide variety of fresh and dry peppers for such a good price. Beautiful bunches of cilantro not like you get at the regular grocery store. A large variety of yogurts. Their meat counter is huge, and reasonably priced. They have fresh corn tortillas . A wide variety of soda. The best part you ask? The deli counter, they have Tortas, quesadillas, flautas, and TACOS ! They're massive too! We got Pastor tacos and they were amazing, and at the end they will load the tacos with onions cilantro salsas and guacamole! For $1.99 a taco you can't beat it!

Nonetheless, the staff was very friendly and served large portions. I got the fajita platter with steak, beans, rice and 5 tortillas on the side.

I did not care so much for the steak. It was more like steakums with few peppers and onions. But this won't deter me from coming back to try some other meat/menu options!
