    Left side is all tortilla? No rice in my bean, RICE and cheese burrito
    Brittney C.

    Really wanted to like this place since it's walking distance from our room but I can't. I don't think anyone appreciates when restaurants make their to-go orders wrong. After receiving the to-go order, I walked 15 minutes back to the room and had to put the burrito on the stove to give it actual crisp and color. You could tell upon unwrapping that the tortilla was low quality and that the burrito would burst at any minute due to the cracks in it. Finally sat down to enjoy my $10 bean, rice and cheese burrito but was met with disappointment and a lack of texture. The rice was missing, the beans lacked flavor. I know they closed at 5pm but was hoping I could call and someone would pick up to rectify the issue. Nobody picked up and I was hungry after a day of skiing so I forced myself to eat it even though the lack of texture made me nauseous. Called today and was told the only thing they could offer would be making me a new burrito. I don't think I should have to walk 30+ minutes round trip in the cold and have to eat another poor quality burrito due to their mistake. If you choose to come here, do yourself a favor and eat part of your to-go burrito before leaving so you don't get the same disappointment.

    Menu for February 2024 Decent food, easy, and kid friendly. Didn't do phone orders but food was pretty quick.

    Here's my test results after a days in the hospital.

    Bacteria-infected food is served here!!! Sent me to the hospital with Y. Entercolitica. Bacteria infection found in pork. Do not eat here, will give you serious health issues. What is concerning is that they even blocked up the food prep area so you can't see how untrained and unclean the place is. Unfriendly and incompetent. Negative stars since I spent multiple days in the hospital in serious pain - cramps, nausea, diarrhea and other health complications. The Y. Entercolitica. Bacteria infection maybe be the result of contamination from pork, rodents, and staff handling and storing of pork and pig products touching other foods (vegetables and rice) in prep area.

    This place is in Northstar Village. As I can see on Yelp, these quick and easy restaurants open and close frequently. There are no guarantees that they will be open next year. This one has Mexican food and I got a mini-kid's burrito. It was a build your own burrito with meat, pico, chicken, etc. It was good and a light snack. I had a Martinelli's apple juice. It was alright. So a year ago, I hit 1500 reviews and now I am at around 1980 reviews. I didn't hit 500 reviews in a year, but came so close...20 reviews short of 500 reviews.

    Super burrito, shrimp coctel, the special: pozole (hominy) soup
    Marissa P.

    For a Mexican restaurant in a resort, this place is pretty good. We ordered the super burrito with al pastor (pork) meat and it was huge. As most restaurants have it, it was too salty for my taste. The shrimp coctel didn't have as much tomato base as I would have liked, but it was still very flavorful. A bit spicy with the diced chiles if you mind spicy. The pozole (hominy) soup was a special on that day and it was delicious. Wish it had radish to garnish but again, it was great for what and where we were looking. The fried ice cream was too sweet for me but perfect if sharing. Coconut, cinnamon, and vanilla flavors. All in all, we would stop by again.

    Supreme burrito with chicken and guacamole

    Husband and I ordered the chicken super burrito the other day. It was delicious, we came back again today. Good stop for lunch, really hits the spot after skiing the slopes all morning and early afternoon

    A few great things about this place. We were lucky to get a table quick during lunch time on the…read moreweekend. They really serve their drinks and food with fresh ingredients. The fish tacos tasted delicious with the combination of salsa and toppings on it. However, the fish was overcooked and my friend's corn tortillas were not pan fried enough and she had food poisoning from the chicken tacos. Shrimp tacos were amazing and i love how they had a thick hot sauce which looked like the diablo sauce. My mango sin mocktail was delicious as well. The shrimp quesadillas were great. My daughter enjoyed it! The server is pretty nice, but a bit slow because they only have one or two when they are very busy.

Service is on point: friendly, fast and attentive. And that means a lot as we were close to getting HANGRY. Ordered Baja Fish Tacos and husband had carne asada which were seasoned and cooked to perfection. Husband needed another serving of tacos as the serving seemed small for him but it was perfect for me. They are kid friendly and offer kids' menu. I also enjoyed their refreshing mocktail: hibiscus fresca and crunchy churros paired with chocolate and caramel dip. Bathrooms are clean and well stocked, however they didn't have a baby changing station. Other than that, it was such a great casual dining experience. We would definitely be back!

They were excellent. Like, the kind where you pause mid-bite and nod. The enchiladas were exactly what you want after a long Tahoe day: cheesy, saucy, and piping hot in the best kind of way. Comfort food perfection. Everything tasted fresh and made with care. A couple quirks to know going in: * Beware the green salsa. It is SPICY. Do not mistake it for guacasalsa. It's actually spicier than the red salsa and has some serious kick. * Chips aren't free and only come in one large size, so plan accordingly if you're just looking for a small side. Overall, fantastic food, generous portions, and totally worth the stop. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town.

We perused the market that is attached to the restaurant while we waited for our order. A great way to past time and loved all the authentic Mexican spices and produce there. Usually restaurants in Tahoe during winter season are super packed on the weekends with long wait times. But La Mexicana delivered authentic food in a prompt manner. Food was good. I got the carnitas and al pastor tacos for the combo. We also got an additional fish taco. The food was more than enough for me. I was pretty full after the two, and I pushed myself to split the fish taco. Fish taco was pretty good and had some good spice to it. I recommend giving that one a try.

Ordered a beet salad, meat lovers pizza and a flight of beer tastings (4 flavors) First off the Server was wonderful! Very warm and very friendly to talk with. She was always checking on me to make sure my water glass was full and how b my meal was. Super nice person!! The beet salad is "To Die For!" The dressing on this fabulous! So tasty it's addicting! The beets, candied walnuts and cheese mixed with the arugula was such a fantastic and delicious combo! I'd drive 4 hours just for this salad! The all meat pizza is delicious! The tangy tomato sauce is a very welcomed change of flavor when compared to other pizzas. The sour dough crust is a welcome change too! Very tasty with the tasty meat toppings! The beer flight I had was delicious! I liked the first one a lot! I'm not a very big drinker but I liked the first one. The stout is very delicious too with a fairly strong coffee flavor. All the beers were very yummy! Great ambiance to just hang out all day or night long passing the day drinking tasty beer and eating delicious food!

GREAT: wings, fries, beet salad NOT GREAT: Fish and chips (they're fish sticks) chicken parm sandwich (they're chicken tenders), pizza (sure is a pretty pizza oven though) Also, the dining room is small, and too often the setting for employee drama played out in full view of customers. Maybe schedule a team meeting and hash it out there? Things don't usually improve when the employees are more self-involved than they are concerned about customers. That's not why we visit.
