I've been here a few times now and have come to love it. First off, they always seat people…read morequickly. What I appreciate about the seating is that when I ask if I can sit apart from the crowd, it's never a problem. They don't assign one server to one area, so drink order, food order, service in general has always felt efficient. Benjamin has been helpful in learning the menu. When it wasn't busy, he actually sat and walked through some of the dishes with me, so now I feel like I know the choices so much better. That was amazing and reminiscent of high end private dining spots. This visit, I just had a margarita and a chicken burrito. I figured I would take half home, but the burrito was so good I actually ate it all! And the margarita was delish too. Not too strong, actually a great cocktail that was nice to sip. The vibe of the restaurant is casual Mexican. It feels a bit like my Tia is in the kitchen and my prima is serving. They have that nice comfortable vibe. Parking is a cinch. I've got nothing but great to say about La Tablita. Easy parking, quick seating, fast service, yummy drinks, and fantastic food, all delivered by delightful staff. No regrets here.

Was invited out to dinner [5/19/26] and my date suggested La Tablita. I viewed the menu online and…read moreagreed everything looked tasty. Then when I checked the address realized I had driven right past it countless times as I regularly visit the Revivals store in the same mall complex. But I never paid attention to the rest of the businesses as they all look pretty dull and unassuming from the outside. But once inside, the decor of La Tablita is very nice and lively and the owner's have made the concerted effort to give the interior a Mexico vibe which I always hope for in ethnic restaurants as for me it adds to the dining experience. Mexican, Chinese and Thai are my favorite cuisines with them all being #1 on a given day so I was really looking forward to my meal. I always order the biggest combination plate in a Mexican restaurant because I want some of everything so I got the La Tablita Especial. My entree plate was so packed that my rice and beans came on a separate plate and could have been a full meal for a lesser eater, point being, you get your money's worth. And I had only taken a few bites before telling my dinner partner " Everything is delicious, I will definitely eat here again". I read one review of the waitress not being great but our young lady was prompt, very nice, checked back on us constantly and also suggested desert. And an older man I assume either a manager or possibly an owner checked on us as well. The only ding I could list is the beverage prices are a bit high, $4.99 for a glass of regular tea? But I still give an overall 5 star rating and in fact just writing this review has been making my mouth water thinking back LOL.

There's so many Mexican restaurants to choose from but only a good handful that's worth it. I've…read morebeen to some where the prices are way high for what it's worth. Basically you pay for where you are and that doesn't alway mean good. Well here, it was a surprise for us. We've seen this place loads of time driving by but never gave it a shot. It was on the list of places to try. Well finally it happened. As it was Tuesday, we were thinking none other than taco Tuesday. The restaurant itself is part of a strip mall and literally right across the street from one of the casinos. Plenty of parking. As we were walking in, one of the staff graciously opened the door to welcome us in. That a good start and amazing customer service. Place itself isn't too big with indoor seating and a patio along the side. Right after we got seated wherever we wanted, chips and salsa came out as well as the menu. Within seconds.... First off, the staff are AMAZING and the sweetest. Every single one of the were so sweet. Within minutes of sitting down, you could tell that it was a major spot where the locals know about. Menu was quite nice and pretty affordable. Started off with their margaritas which was well priced and quite tasty. We didn't have a starter but went straight for the main deal. The aguachilli tostada which was quite tasty and very flavorful. A hefty portion on shrimp on top of a couple of tostada. Decent meal or great for sharing. Then the chicken quesadilla which itself was pretty filled with meat and cheese and accompanied by shredded lettuce with tomatoes and onion and side of sour cream and guacamole. This was tasty too. I've had some bad quesadillas but here, it was great. Lastly the steak fajita. First off, it came out on a sizzling platter which in my opinion is the only way to be served. Last time I had one was at a pricer restaurant and it was nothing compared to this. Here, it was way better. And the price was very affordable. A hefty portion of steak with peppers and onion. Cheese was an extra fee and came with rice and bean which I opted for double rice and tortillas. The food was excellent and very affordable. Fajitas actually came out on a sizzling platter which is the way it's supposed to be...lol... Service and staff are the best and not to forget the food. Drinks itself was great and with the food, we both enjoyed it. Only downfall, they don't offer taco Tuesday but besides that it's a place that we'll definitely be back.

They have several seating areas so you'll be able to get the vibe you're looking for here whether…read moreyou want something louder or quieter. We got seated in the back patio area, which was cute and small. Service was fast and efficient. We tried: - Prickly Pear (no orange juice) Margarita: very yummy! It doesn't need the OJ at all - Watermelon Margarita: refreshing and nicely balanced without being too sweet - Aguachile Oysters: the reason we decided to come by and it was soo worth it for this alone! Insanely delicious and we could've eaten multiple dozens of these - Arrachera Steak: easily the most expensive taco I've ever had, but it was really good. Not sure I would pay this much again, but it was worth having one time - Barbacoa Plate: wow! the meat just melts in your mouth with every bite. I loved everything they added to this dish This was easily one of our favorite places we ate at during out trip! Everything was enjoyable and we decided we're stopping by here for the aguachile oysters every time we're in the Palm Springs area. No exceptions!

Amazing food with great quality and flavor. Service was friendly and timely. Came with a…read morereservation and there was indoor and outdoor seating. It does get full so reservations is the way to go. Good beer, cocktail, marg, taquila menu. Got the Viaje beer which was a stronger tasting lager. 1. Chips salsa Guac - good small spice in the dips. Not too much salt on the chips. Good quality 2. Street corn - definitely comfort food as listed and it was flavorful and comes out hot on a skillet 3. Shrimp tacos - 3 shrimp in each taco. I like that it comes simple with the chipotle aioli on the side and beans rice avocado on the side. Good flavor and not too salty again. Overall a great dinner and if I lived in the area, I would be back easily!
