The birria taco's are the best birria that I've had yet! The mix of flavors is so good! Savory, salty, spices, so good! My wife was only able to finish one of her taco's, but she ate the whole side order of Mexican rice, which was large. We will definitely go back.

Corn chips and salsa were brought to us as soon as we were seated. The salsa was great! It had a little bite to it, not just the usual mild salsa. When you order, keep in mind the portions are large. I ordered the Chili Poblano's and two Tamales. The Poblano's came with rice and refried beans. The Poblano's also had seasoned ground beef on them. The flavors were great, probably now my favorite restaurant Poblano's . I had to bring the tamales home, they are huge! They tasted great the next day, they were covered, with chili beans, mole sauce and cheese. They tasted great! My wife had the Enchiladas Tapatias which she said was delicious! We will be going back to eat there again!

Not bad, they were delicious just not expected. The same applies for the chimichangas. They were good, just not what I would typically expect from a beef chimichanga. Typically it comes with a hard fried flower tortilla with ground beef inside, they had more of a stewed Barbacoa textured beef and it was very soft. It also had a brown sauce as well as the queso. I don't think I've had it that way previously, but it wasn't bad. The chills relleno was the only thing you ordered that wasn't good. I've never seen a chilly and I'll come out that way. It looked more like a enchilada. When I cut it into it, it was indeed a poblano pepper, but it was covered in a red ranchero sauce in addition to the queso. The coding was very soft and mushy, and it didn't have much flavor. When I cut into it, it was cold inside and I had to send it back to be reheated. But the menu is large, and they have a lot of drink specials and good lunch combinations. I would come back based on the cleanliness, helplessness of the staff, the size of the menu

Neither one of us could finish so we got to go boxes, plus we had both finished our tortillas and ordered more before we decided we were full, those went in our boxes too. We did order queso to go with our complimentary chips and salsa. Of course we finished the queso. I cannot recommend La Fragua enough, whether it's dinner or lunch, it can't be beat.

I left with my ears bleeding, my brain fried, and pretty sure I developed a goddamn aneurysm. Then, they brought out the wrong food. Like, how hard is it to get an order right? Instead of fixing it like competent human beings, the staff gave off big "not our problem" energy. And when my friend spilled her giant drink (RIP), not a single person lifted a finger to help. We had to clean that shit up ourselves while the staff just stood there staring like brain-dead NPCs. Are you serious? We were out here like, "Guess we work here now." BUT. The quesadilla? That thing slapped harder than life itself. I'm talking heavenly, life-changing levels of good. I will be dreaming about that quesadilla for years, and I hate how much I loved it because it's the only reason I'd ever consider coming back to this disaster of a place. Do better, Mi Tequila.

I'm actually quite upset about this experience. I asked the waitress, "How many tacos come with the…read morestreet tacos meal?" and she replied, "However many you want." I didn't understand what she meant because that is obviously not true, and her answer was very unclear. Based on that, I ordered two steak tacos and two al pastor tacos along with two beers. The total came to $50, which I find hard to believe. The "Street Tacos Meal" is listed as $9.99, yet for some reason, they added a $3.00 upcharge for the steak and then charged $8.50 for two additional street tacos. I thought I was ordering the meal; how did I end up spending $21.49 on four tacos with rice and beans when the advertised price was $9.99? This doesn't add up, and the staff was extremely vague when I was placing my order. While the food was okay, the al pastor was very fatty. Given the price and the lack of clarity, I won't be coming back.

My first encounter with this local gem was over twenty years ago on my first visit to this Ohio town, and it's still around with improvements, enhancements and is still great overall! A terrific family run business. From its jam-packed with a wide array of dry and can goods on grocery shelves, great meats, extensive local baked goods, and a much renovated and expanded restaurant and really nice Mexican-style bar! If you're in town and are in the mood for an ice-cold Dox Equis and/or Jalisco style Mexican cuisine, this the place for you! Their goodies run the gamut from an incredible Pozole to Grilled Chicken delights, to delectable Burritos to mouthwatering tacos, some terrific, refried beans and incredible chips and salsa! I think they are one of the top five Mexican food joints in the Defiance area. Oh, and do your groceries while you're at it. Buen provecho ya'll.

What really bothered me was the surprise 3.5% surcharge they add if you pay with a card. That includes debit cards too. I didn't see any signs about it and wasn't told until the check came. At that point, I didn't have cash, so I had no choice. For anyone wondering, surcharges on debit cards aren't allowed under Visa and Mastercard rules. I get that places are trying to cover costs, but it should be clear up front and within the rules. I wouldn't have stayed if I knew about the extra fee--or I would've stopped at my bank across the street to grab some cash. Just a heads-up for anyone thinking of stopping by: bring cash.
