Inside La Bamba MTZ
Colleen L.

Looking for good authentic Mexican food. Look no further La Bamba MTZ in Canastoda, NY. The food is excellent and was worth the drive from Oneida, where I was staying. Santiago was my waiter. He was very friendly, efficient, AND handsome. I'm definitely hitting this place again when I come back to town.

We stopped here on the way home From Albany on a whim. Wow. Absolutely amazing authentic Mexican food served by friendly people. Everything was fantastic. The Birria was so flavorful and the enchiladas were my favorite I've ever had. Don't skip the chips and salsa. Sorry no food pics, I ate too fast! Go here. Now. If you don't, you are missing out!

Birria

The food was absolutely amazing! I ordered the Birria and I truly never thought that I would find real Mexican food in random Canastota! It taste exactly like when I go to Mexico I can't believe it !! Whenever I come back to visit you know I will be going straight to La Bamba to get my Mexican fix !!

Enchiladas

Finally tried this place. Have heard good things and it didn't disappoint. We got the enchiladas and the quesobirria. Sooooo good. Great flavors and delicious. I liked the homemade salsa too. Different style but tasty. We will definitely be back to try more stuff!! Also quick note no alcohol so be prepared for that. My only disappointment

Quesabirrria and Asada Torta

Good food, not crowded, in fact almost empty when we were there. Not the routine Mexican-American menu. No alcohol served.

Great food again! They never disappoint. I can tell the food is authentic. Much better than something like chipotle or moes.

Cinco De Mayo

Had their special. Tacos De Birria with rice and beans were very good…read more Pollo con Crema was also very good, portion large. Chicken Empanda so,so wouldn't get again. Service was OK server tried her best. Margarita was just ok, nothing special. Restaurant is ok inside, nothing fancy but appears to be clean with quite a few tables. Would return but not order empanda. You get chips and salsa.

A restaurant that messes up a carry out order needs to follow a few steps to make it right. First,…read morehave a phone number that works. Second, apologize profusely. Third, make sure that you fix the order. Finally, make it up to the patron for having to make a second trip to the restaurant. (This is for pick up orders, specifically). My pick up order was supposed to be ready at 6:45, but I sat there until 7:00 waiting. Then when I got home, I found that we were missing two entrees. The phone number on the website went straight to a busy signal, so leaving my family to eat, I drove back and informed the restaurant of the issue. They handed me one of the entrees in about 10 minutes, but after waiting a while longer, I found the server to ask about the other one, and had to argue with him and the cook that what I ordered and paid for wasn't in the bag. Finally they agreed to fix it and handed me what they insisted were two beef chalupas. Guess what- the picture above is what they handed me. It's soggy corn tortillas with beans, sour cream, lettuce and tomato. Definitely not worth the $15 they charged. Most of the food that we got was tasty. Not amazing, but not terrible. But not worth the $120 for dinner, either. If they had apologized, gotten the food right the second time, and done anything at all to make it worth my while to make a second trip for food I'd already paid for i would have much better things to say. As it is, I'm just disappointed. Go here or not, I guess. But maybe double check your order before you walk out.

Mi Rancho - Wowwww Espectacular Green Carnitas.

Cute place in a shopping area, the outside doesn't match the cute indoor decorations. As I entered…read morethe restaurant a young lady greeted me, she took my order and clarify some items on the menu were no longer available. Went ahead and ordered their "mi bandera dish" which had three enchiladas, one chicken, cheese, beef. The red sauce was a bit bitter but their green sauce was delicious. I order one chile relleno and she asked what type of meat I wanted, I was puzzled since chille rellenos don't usually come with meat. It turns out it's an open chile with cheese and meat, interesting delivery but I prefer the original, cheese only with caldo. The queso had a bit of a spicy kick and it came with a big bag of chips. They only offer one type of salsa, mild and red. When I asked for anything spicier they pointed to bottled Cholula.

Where do I start...Well let me first say, it takes a lot for me to give out a 1 star review. I HATE…read moregiving out a 1 star unless its well deserved. The service was good, staff were nice but the food wasn't very good. Even with the service and staff being nice this could have been way better. Food wise? I got a burrito that was very poorly constructed and did not taste good. The chicken tasted like it came out of a kitchen sink with dish soap on it...no idea why, but it was not good. Shrimp was so so. We also ordered the chips and queso. Mistake. Came out looking very un-appetizing and tasted not good. Barely any queso or cheese on it and overall piss poor quality. Like other users posted, I WANT to like this place!!! The staff are nice and could be great! Its really not adding up because I drive by multiple times a week and there is NEVER anyone here and yet they remain in business. I am not one to throw around 1-2 star reviews often but this one is unfortunately well deserved. I'm sorry Mi Rancho, I dont think I will be coming back any time soon. I wish you well if you're reading this but I'm hopeful you can make the necessary changes.

I've been wanting to try Rio Grande for a while and finally had a chance. We were seated promptly…read moreand given menus. They brought us warm chips and salsa and our drinks and came back in a little while to take our orders. The food came out pretty quickly and was nice and hot. Service was very good even as it got busier during lunch. My 1/2 Enchilada Supreme came with one cheese and one chicken enchilada, rice and lettuce, tomato and sour cream. It was a decent size lunch portion. My friend had shrimp and rice and vegetables. She said it was cooked well, tasted great and took some leftovers home. The decor was colorful and fun. Next time we'll try some margaritas, they looked great. ( Sorry, we were so hungry I forgot to take food pictures)

Another great margarita and to go order on a Saturday afternoon. It was Dia de los Muertos and some…read moredecorations at the bar and festive ballon's. True Blue Margarita ordered and sipped on while order was being prepared, I think the blue is my favorite at this establishment so far! They will give you a to go cup, as the margaritas are monstrous! I was greeted immediately upon entering and seated myself, drink and to go order both taken promptly. Short wait time for to go order, I do like to have the salsa and chips with the margarita but that came with the to go order this trip. I do think the tortillas were a bit stale this order. I ended up using the salsa with the quesadilla. Great quesadilla wish it came with sour cream, I would love to add jalapeños as well next trip. Supreme Enchiladas good as well, I prefer the chicken. Good amount of food for the price. The portion was plenty to share. I need to remember to add the Guac! I think the dinner meals should add the guacamole with order but I'll be sure to order next trip! Bon appetit!
