    Ok food but they frequently don't get your order right. My main pet peeves are 1) they just pick up the phone and hang up right away. There's no way to place phone orders anymore I guess. And 2) their online prices for certain things change to something much higher when you go to check out. Basic bait and switch (thus why I'm trying to call in and place an order over the phone!). The small rice was $3 something when I put it in the cart, but then was $9 when I checked out. Feels kind of scammy TBH. Disappointing at times to say the least. Then when I brought it to the attention of the employees there, they said that they don't control the online prices. And when I asked about their phone issues, they said that they hang up on customers when they're busy!! What?! Great business model!

    Chimichanga with chorizo

    Every time I come here, the service is quick and the food is fresh and delicious! My husband and I share the super burrito with grilled chicken and the beer-battered fish tacos. The portions are a decent size and always fills me up. I love that this is a no frill Mexican restaurant - you get what you pay for and they've been consistent and reliable with both service and food. Plus, they keep the tables and floor clean. This is a great spot for a quick meal and casual hang out with friends.

    Tiny cup of Pico
    Joe P.

    Food has always been decent/good. Unfortunately the horchata tastes like it is not house made but from a package. No longer do they offer free pico de gallo which is understandable but at the same time charging almost $2 for a ridiculously small cup of it is crazy. Been coming here for 10 years but have reduced how many times we come. For 4 people 3 drinks $65

    If you know me, I'm a big fan of tacos, especially tacos de puerco (pork) and tacos de lengua (cow tongue) -- and the salsa that comes with it. While my experience at this La Mexicana location was decent enough to want me to come back, there left quite a bit of disappointment and things that they could improve. Here's my experience at this one right by Valpico and Tracy Blvd: Food: 3/5 The food in itself was honestly pretty good -- quesadillas and tacos make a really good match. While the quesadillas were really cheesy and a lot of fillings, the tacos were a whole other story. While I appreciated that they made corn tortillas to the best of their extent, the corn tortillas with lenguas made the taco shell too wet and too soggy. In addition, they put a little bit too much lengua -- which left an aftertaste that I did not like at all. In addition, I had asked them to put the chile verde on the side, since I knew Chile verde was saucy yet spicy at the same time. Instead, they put a lot of that on there (a little bit too much), and I couldn't feel the lengua in my mouth. The grilled fish taco was good, but the seasoning of the grilled fish could've have been better despite the fact I put a LOT of lemon on both two tacos. Thankfully, cabbage and other toppings came to the rescue, because I would have not been able to change it up more than what was needed. Service: 4/5 The service was okay -- I would say that it wasn't too bad, but it wasn't too good either. Just some subpar service and regularly seen at a taqueria. I will say that they were responsive even if they were busy with dual orders (in-house and Doordash/Uber Eats orders) being dropped at the same time. Atmosphere: 3.5/5 The atmosphere was honestly mid -- there wasn't a lot to comment on this about. The rest of the patrons there seemed to mind their own business, so there's really not that much to comment about either on this specific topic. I'd like to come and try again, for a more thorough experience -- but coming in here rushed makes me think twice about what I'm gonna order and where I will sit at this establishment.

    Carnita taco
    Cecilia C.

    Worst carnita tacos EVER!!! Worst burrito de carnitas!!! Dry old food!!!!!!!!!!!! Arrived at 12:30pm today too early to serve old food. Will never come again!!!!!

    Menu as of 12/04/2025.

    Had to post their menu on here for the prices. Food was better 2 days prior to this review. Good food probably depends on who is working there

    Missing sour cream
    Jemima R.

    Ordered two burritos one with meat & the other no meat. Both burritos were done incorrectly. They both had meat!! I had to drive back for them to fix them. It was 9:30am & I'm the only customer there instead of helping me & re doing my burritos they were working on another order for people that weren't even in the restaurant yet for their pick up. Zero sense or urgency. I made it vocal that I was upset as I was watching them work on other peoples order as I'm still here standing waiting for my order I placed 30 min ago. The cashier told me well the owner is him if you what to speak to him. Which made me more upset knowing that he himself was one of the cooks & he decided to ignore me & not take care of the problem himself by re making my burritos first that he messed up on. My burritos were re made & I got home & they were still incorrectly they were both missing the sour cream. This has happened multiple times to me here I hadn't visit this location in over a year & I specifically told them no meat you guys always mess it up please no meat. Cashiers were ok we put that down but it's out of our hands if they mess it up. Don't think I'll be back.

The restaurant offers plenty of seating, with a…read moregood mix of tables and booths, making it comfortable whether you're dining solo or with a group. There are a couple of tv's on the walls to catch a game. Their extensive menu features a wide variety of dishes, so there's something to satisfy just about any Mexican food craving. They have a good special going on right now that offers six beers for $25 and it also includes chips and guacamole. One thing that stands out is the friendly and welcoming staff, who consistently provide excellent service. If you enjoy a soda with your meal, keep in mind that beverages are served in cans rather than from a fountain. After ordering, guests can help themselves at the chips and salsa bar. The chips are always fresh, and there are several salsa options available in convenient squeeze bottles. It's a nice setup that allows you to bring your favorite salsa back to the table and enjoy as much as you'd like. Overall, this is a fun, casual spot that's definitely worth checking out if you haven't visited yet.

The chicken quesadilla was more like a chicken soft taco in size and taste, no melted cheese or the big size you expect with a quesadilla. The salsa for tje chips and to use were ok. I preferred the extra hot. But over all it was decent, but not blowing me away.
