I went for three beef birria tacos, and they were absolutely scrumptious: rich, deeply seasoned, and clearly made with care and high-quality ingredients. We started with a large serving of freshly made guacamole, paired with what tasted like homemade chips--warm, crisp, and impossible to stop eating. Everything on the table tasted incredibly fresh and thoughtfully prepared. To drink, I enjoyed a cold Modelo, while my companion had a distinctive mango brew that was light, refreshing, and delicious. Quite honestly, this may be the best Mexican food I've ever had--whether in the United States or in Mexico. La Reina is a true standout and an absolute must-visit in Sarasota.

The salsa had a nice consistency to it and the chips were crisp. My Bueno bowl was very large with rice, lettuce, avocado, black beans, queso and chicken (substantial and filling), very little kick.

I asked about the sangrias where she suggested the red wine option and I obliged. It was good. We decided to go simple since we were flying the next morning. We started with chips and salsa .. first time I've ever seen it as an ordered item and not complementary. The chips were fresh and the salsa abundant. I liked the salsa; more like a puree and not chunky. It was really good. Then we had the 3-cheese quesadilla and 3 ground beef taco platter and shared. The tacos were crispy and generously stuffed with meat and the quesadillas were warm and served with a ramiken of sour cream. Our dinner was pleasant and filling but we couldn't finish it all.

Waited for a table about 20 min- which gave us enough time to get some margaritas. We could sit at the bar- or outside...but we snagged two chairs at the bar. Attendee was friendly and made nice drinks. Food was delish. Chips and salsa were freely given- menu says free with all meals. (Someone posted a complaint about being charged)... Anyhow- we enjoyed our meal. Busy place , but food came quickly and we loved our meals. I had the carne asada- waiter said the steak fajitas is a lot of food and I didn't need too much... I ordered it medium rare... and I would say it came medium well- a "little"pink... but more done than expected...it was still good.. I guess I would order it rare. rice and beans were tasty and also came with pico and tortillas. Chili Rellanos with beef had at least two or theee peppers... and stuffed full of beef- had to take half home. The combo plate also was fab. Tamal, tostado and taquito- yum... had to take some home of this too. Happy to have tried this establishment- and will be back.
