This was one of those completely last-minute dinner decisions that ended up being one of the BEST…read moremeals we've had in a long time. We were out in Asheville, randomly started craving Mexican food, and decided to give La Rumba a try. I'm SO glad we did because everything was genuinely incredible. The food was absolutely sensational. Everything we ordered was packed with flavor, fresh, and just ridiculously good. We kept trying each other's food and basically saying "oh my god" after every bite. Even the chips, salsa, queso, and guac had us hooked before our actual food came out. And the drinks!!! SO good. Dangerous in the best possible way. What really took the experience over the top though, was the service. Everyone was incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming, and you could tell they cared that we were having a great experience. Great food is one thing, but when the service matches it, that's what makes a restaurant memorable. We went in on a whim with zero expectations and left talking about how we HAVE to come back the next time we're in Asheville. Honestly, La Rumba may have ruined our ability to casually pick another Mexican restaurant now 10/10. No notes. Go hungry. Order everything.

A bit off our path by it was SO worth it! This place is a…read moreGem, I haven't yet found this quality Mexican in California. I had the Puffy Wrap with chicken and the wife had the Mushroom Crema. Everything was excellent. The sauces were exceptional. Portions were generous such that we took leftovers. But left a little space to split a Flan. Firm but delicious. Would certainly recommend!

I can't stand unauthentic, bland tacos. Thankfully, Taquería Muñoz provides delicious Mexican delicacies in a warm, homey environment. The staff are all kind and work hard to ensure customers are satisfied. Structure wise, I suggest signs be posted to say where the trash cans are. If you're sitting near the order area, you may not notice them. As a result, many customers left their trash at the tables for staff or upcoming customers to clean. I personally loved the sides bar to pick and choose the amount of salsas, cilantro, onions, and other toppings you want. I ordered a chicken tamale with 3 tacos- carnitas, al pastor, and pollo. Of course, the pastor was my favorite- I just wish pineapple slices were included. The pollo wasn't bad, but I wish it had more flavor as it tasted basic to me. The carnitas were not bad. Honestly, the salsas and fresh toppings really made it for me. The tamale was just okay, but with all the fixings and salsa verde specifically it was great. Their agua frescas come in HUGE portions. I got a peach agua fresca which was very sugary yet tasted like fresh peach purée. Overall, decent agua fresca. I just wish the pineapple one was available when I was there. This is the most legit Mexican you'll find in the area. It's definitely worth a try. The salsas really make it taste amazing. Is it the best I've ever had? Not quite. Is it very good considering the area? Absolutely, yes.

The space gets a little intimate when the line gets long because apparently everyone else will likely also have the brilliant idea to come here but, lucky for everyone, the wait moves quickly. The asada salad is easily one of the best I've had: bright, vibrant, fresh flavors with seriously good carne asada. And the portions are appropriately sized for the price, which feels almost rebellious in this economy. But the churros, the churros... they are dropped in the fryer right in front of you then served hot and coated with actual grated cinnamon and sugar. Actual cinnamon. Revolutionary concept! I will absolutely be eating here again. In fact, every time I pass through Asheville, Mamacita is now on the itinerary.

As a vegetarian, it was alarming to see a staff touch raw fish with their gloves and proceed to touch all the fresh vegetables without a glove change. After letting them know that this happened, the response was only a "oh sorry" and back to regular business. Not only is this unappealing for anyone to see, but an incredibly serious allergy risk that they do not care about and kept putting veggies on folks food. This is the best burrito spot in Asheville, and now, I don't know I can support or recommend them in all good conscientiousness.
