    When you walk in, it doesn't look like much but man is this place good absolutely wonderful authentic Mexican on the buffet and the menu. We had a little of both and they were great. I could honestly say that we would eat here over any other Mexican place for authentic. Service was wonderful and it was even fun to brush up on my Spanish a little

    Went here once and it was delicious. I didn't order much cause I had a wedding to attend but will be back for sure. Good atmosphere, very nice employees. For sure I'll be back .

    Tacos from Tierra Caliente were outstanding and only $1.30 each.

    The buffet was really good, especially the pasole, menudo and caldo de rez. Service was friendly and efficient. A very pleasurable lunch.

    The aguas frescas here are very good, and the lunch buffet's surprisingly fresh and tasty.

Sauce bottles left to right... Mayo. Yes. Mayo. Don't knock it until you try it. Creamy Green sauce. Spicy af but amazing. Red salsa. Spicy too with an addictive kick. Original salsa in the cup that came with my chips and salsa. Hot too but not crazy. BUTTER. Yes. Mix butter with any salsa and a chip and you're in heaven. You're welcome. Customer service, food and vibes are on point. Will be back a lot. 10/10.

Ambiance: Very loud live music and chaotic in general. More chaotic than a standard Mexican restaurant. One visit, tacos were being cooked outside on a Santa Maria style grill. Food: Birria Tacos are the best thing on the menu. Cheesy, juicy, and packed with flavor. Topped with cilantro and wonderful consommé. The white sauce is a great addition as well as the green sauce. The Pin Wheels are not the best for the salsa. The salsa is mediocre and also spicy. The Surf and Turf Quesadillas are cheesy and packed with meat. The same meal as a burrito is good, but not preferred over the quesadillas. The Ceviche is out of this world. A heaping portion of perfectly citrus and not too fishy. The only meal that was not good was the Marlin Quesadilla. It was too fishy and tasted like fishy BBQ.

    I'm disappointed in myself I didn't try this and review it sooner!…read more La Herencia is an upscale beautiful restaurant tucked away amongst the businesses. Every time I've driven by it's been absolutely packed in the parking lot. The staff is incredibly friendly and brings a whole fun vibe to your table. The salsa is incredible the queso is to die for. Every single thing I ate was a hit! 10/10 will be back frequently. :)

    La Herencia was a decent experience. We were looking for a sit down restaurant this time instead of…read moreour typical Mexican food truck run. It was very busy when we walked in but there was no wait. We were thankfully seated immediately and started off with chips and salsa. The chips were nice and crispy, but the salsa was mediocre. The tomatoes tasted canned. While I can totally get the efficiency behind using canned tomatoes for a busy restaurant, the taste is not preferred. The kids chicken quesadilla plate was a good amount of food! I just wish the quesadilla was already sliced as it was for our 3 year old. The chicken was also bland. Again, the portions were great. My son ordered the Burrito La Herencia with ground beef and this was seasoned well. Again, great portions of beans, rice & main dish. No complaints with this one! My spouse ordered the La Herencia fajita special and felt as if it was lacking. The steak pieces were minuscule and the shrimp was bland and undercooked. The pork chop was thinly sliced which was nice but VERY salty. We were wishing for more peppers and onions as well. Overall this dish was salty, but tolerable! It came with a side plate of rice, beans, pico de gallo, guac, sour cream & lettuce. Served with flour tortillas. We ordered the queso & guac while we were looking at the menu and waiting. I personally did not enjoy the queso. It was thick and had an artificial mouth feel. The guac was decent! Bland overall but I love the taste of avocado. I wish it had more lime and seasoning though since it was supposed to be Guacamole and not avocado dip. I ordered the Steak Mexicano with extra jalapeños and this was very good. Still on the salty side but I enjoy things on a SLIGHTLY saltier range. My spouse thought the steak was TOO salty. The peppers, onions, and tomatoes were nicely sautéed and seasoned. The rice here is also DELICIOUS. I hate a bland Mexican rice. The beans were good too but nothing to write home about. I do wish I was offered a side of corn tortillas. Overall this experience was okay! Not the worst but definitely not the best. The restaurant was beautifully decorated but there was a noticeable lack of music. We were sat listening to the chatter of all the different customers and kitchen noises. We did have the option of booth or table AND they have boosters seats/ high chairs upon request.
