    If you know me, you already know... I don't mess around when it comes to tacos. Every place we go,…read moreI'm out to find the best taco. We ended up at La Posada Mexican Grill in Madras, Oregon... and this is one of those spots that doesn't try to impress you from the outside... but the food absolutely does. I ordered a carne asada taco and their three crispy bean tacos that they're known for. The carne asada had that real flavor to it, not over-seasoned... just simple and done right and the tortillas... perfect. And those crispy bean tacos... I get why they're known for them. Crispy, flavorful, and just the right ratio of filling to topping. And the salsa bar... this is where you can tell if a place is serious. While it looks simple in the photo, it honestly deserves a review all on its own. Multiple salsas, all different, all fresh... pickled carrots (one of my favorites), and of course, radishes. But the kicker... what really put it over the top for me and sold me on coming back someday were the roasted chiles and grilled onions on the side. That alone tells you everything you need to know about how good this place really is. And I'll say this, because it proves itself over and over again... do not judge a Mexican restaurant by the outside of the building. Ever. Some of the best food you'll find is in the most unassuming places... and this is definitely one of them. So authentic.

    The service was really good, the price is right and they were fast to bring out my food. I had the…read morecombo platter with the cheese enchilada and the Chile relleno. I loved the Chile relleno but the cheese enchilada didnt cut it, not even melted cheese in there and the enchilada sauce was very salty. The beans and rice were both really good. I would try it again because I'm thinking the saltiness was not a normal thing based on other reviews.

    Food is amazing! Just check out the photos. Excellent service and I am very impressed by staff…read moreremembering margarita "my way." I am very particular about the quality of my margaritas and they do a fine job of making me happy. I really enjoy the outdoor seating offerings. It's especially delightful on these warm weather nights. I think you'll enjoy this restaurant.

    What a treat, basically a 5-star restaurant in the literal woods, amazing…read more Visited on a recent camping trip on the Metolious, and if you don't think you need a top shelf margarita and amazing Mexican/Peruvian food while in the wilderness, you are wrong--ha. We got a little of everything, but the menu is so large, one could try something new everyday of the year. The chili relleno in a light but spiced tomato broth is exceptional. The shrimp enchiladas are fresh and bright--where are they getting fresh shrimp in the woods, incredible. Other highlights are the steak dishes and their table-side guacamole. Back to those margaritas, a pitcher for $60-ish, I believe, and that's for the best one, and you get 6 large pours, it's a no brainer. Outdoor seating is fantastic and dog approved, and the deer and squirrels are hitting all their call times. What a show! Service is very friendly and if i can say, authentic, these folks are serving the food of their culture in the most unique and unexpected way.
