I sat at the bar and had the La Flaca margarita (skinny) one of the best I've had!! The cups they're served in are beautiful! The quesobarria tacos were delicious! Staff was very attentive and friendly. read more

best tacos in macon, portion size was perfect, their salsas were such a hit being extremely flavorful. our waitress was so sweet, checked up on us and got our meal to us quickly. Love the complimentary chips and salsa for the table. Overall, really cute and quaint spot with excellent food. Will definitely be back. read more

Another big night at La Bella. Took my neighbor Enoch there last night and wow double wow as the Margaritas were perfect frozen too just how I enjoy them. Ordered the Carnitas stewed pork in a nice semi spicy onion sauce that was delicious. Rice & Beans and a Mexican corn on the cob costed in their white appears sour cream and spicy red mix. What ever it is, get you one. Mary our bartender is so nice and friendly too. Just really enjoy this offering. The ownership, all family who take great pride in what they do. Enoch had a steak stuffed burrito with sides. We both recommend the green sauce to jazz up the plate which comes in squeeze plastic bottles. Red bottles hot hot so pick your weapons wisely. Ok enjoy. read more

Fast service, great food. Solid chips and their salsa has amazing flavor. I like the variety of tacos, and they're affordable too. Not an overpriced menu here! Your drink actually might cost more... friendly people, and I enjoy the colors in the restaurant. Bar is centralized. read more

This place wasn't bad. It's your typical "authentic" Mexican joint. The salsa was pretty good, the freshly prepared guacamole was good but the portion was a little disappointing. I had the Tacos Al pastor, or was decent. The service was good, the waitress was efficient friendly and kept our drinks filled. The ambience was ok wasn't awesome but I don't expect much when it comes to ambiance unless I'm eating at a super expensive restaurant. It was clean, that's all that matters. If I remember correctly they had a health score or 90, which, while not awful isn't great. read more

Hands down the best Mexican food and drinks around! We haven't tried anything we didn't like but some of our absolute favorites are the Barria tacos, quesadillas, and nachos, chorizo tacos, and the shrimp ceviche. The pineapple jalapeño margarita is my favorite drink- It's light and refreshing! The service is also great! Staff is always attentive! read more

Food was good, service was slow to start. We were there at lunch and took awhile for our server to acknowledge us and even bring drinks.

Every fish we ordered was great with the exception of churros. Real authentic food and they don't kid when you ask for spicy. You cannot go wrong with this place but I would avoid the churros. Food - 4/5 Service - 4/5 Ambience - 3.5/5 read more

I'm tempted to call this a hole-in-the-wall place because if you're just driving by, you may miss it. We found this restaurant by a yelp search of course and had to stop in and try them. And let me say, we have returned numerous times since then! We have also introduced friends and family to them. When you enter the first door, enter the restaurant through the door on the right. The bar sits in the middle with lots of booths and table seating available. Depending on the time of day, you may end up seating yourself or they will have a host/hostess seat you. Very friendly and attentive staff. We enjoy sitting at the bar and watching them make drinks as well as watching the overhead TV. The drinks are dangerous *wink wink*. The food is delicious. You can tell it is prepared with fresh ingredients. I typically go for the quesadilla or quesabirra tacos. My husband loves the street taco options. They have fresh salsa and hot sauces as well. Don't be afraid to ask for substitutions either as they do try their best to make accommodations. Restrooms are decent and large. Located in the back hallway. Also, by the register, you can purchase mexican candies. read more

A solid lunch option. Everything you'd expect from a standard Tex-Mex offering. The wait staff was quick and attentive. I should have taken their suggestion to have the tacos. The burrito I had was quite filling. It was good, but it didn't blow my socks off. (Keep in mind that a three star review is not bad.) The guacamole needed more avocado. It felt like they were trying to stretch it with more veggies. But I am going to go back and try the tacos. Holler if you're coming with. read more

Best restaurant in Macon. Consider getting the birria or mole. Very welcoming staff and fun atmosphere.

Loved this spot! Found it on Google and decided to try it out. It was quiet and slow at 1:30pm on a Friday afternoon. We sat ourselves and a waitress immediately came up to take our drink order. We got a Paloma and a sweet tea. The cup was so cute we wanted to take it home! The service was 10/10. Our waitress was so kind, quick on her feet, and helped us properly pronounce a few items. The food was delicious. We got 4 carne tacos, a quesabirria taco, and churros. The quesabirria was the star of the show with the churros quickly following. Everything was hot, full of flavor, and quickly served! Highly recommend this spot. read more

First off let me say eating inside the restaurant is a different review BUT a delivery is an OMG awful the food was cold plain and blah nothing like you get in the restaurant. It doesn't come with salsa or chips. I called thinking they forgot and they said "it doesn't come with with take away" (and rude to boot) now that's fine BUT NO SALSA!!!!! Come on guy you need the salsa, it isn't Mexican food without it. Below is what we ordered we both ordered burritos so I only took a pic of one (it looked exactly the same). The other was 2 yes 2 orders of churros. So to I have to say a thank you to Taco Bell for having put extra sauce in my last order. Do better guys read more

Great restaurant. We came as a tennis team after a tournament and the service was great (thank you - Nelly!) Great margaritas ( added an extra shot of tequila! Yum! We all loved the salsa too! All orders were great and the team wants to go back!! Would highly recommend this for great Mexican! read more

Food was delicious and authentic, great service at reasonable prices. We got the Birria tacos and a burrito and both were stellar.

Stopped here with a coworker as we were in town for an event and were pleasantly surprised. I got the birria quesadilla and it was delicious. She got the birria tacos and liked hers a lot as well. Forgot to take pics. Place was not busy at the time we went and the staff was attentive and friendly. read more

I found Bella Morelia when I was at home for a weekend and craving some birria tacos. I wasn't that hopeful considering that Macon, GA is a small town and doesn't always have diverse food choices. I was pleasantly surprised to stumble across La Bella Morelia! I placed my order online for pick up and went to the store to pick up. The staff were so nice and accommodating and ensured that I was happy with my meal before I left. The restaurant atmosphere was super cute and the restaurant had Mexican decorations and music plying to add to the vibes. I really really wanted to like my food given that the service had been excellent and the staff was so nice and friendly. However, I honestly was not a fan or the birria tacos that I ordered. They were bland, too oily, and not crisp enough. I was disappointed. read more

Despite being a total Mexican food snob La Bella Morelia is SOOOO GOOD. The gorditas are a god send. The camarones a la Diala pack a satisfying wallop of heat. The tortilla chips are fried in house. Basically everything is a 10/10. Run don't walk here. read more

Love this place! Quick service, great food, and charming glassware for their bar decor. I have had many of the dishes on the menu and have never been disappointed. Make sure you check out the specials menu because they usually have great temporary dishes too. read more

This little "hole in the wall" authentic Mexican restaurant is amazing! We frequent downtown and would have never known about this place unless a friend told us about it. The service was amazing and the owner was fantastic! We will definitely be coming back! The food was amazing! The place was packed and our server, Lexi (one of 2 servers), was absolutely amazing. If you want somewhere to relax and get a little tipsy, the bartender will hook you up! read more

I was in Macon and trying to think of a good, tasty lunch and a colleague suggested La Bella Morelia. I am glad he did. It's so good to have proper Mexican food. The tacos are just the sort you'd get from a taco truck: the standard come with onions, cilantro, and lime--and they're incredibly tasty. You can get nearly every option, and I went with a carnitas taco, a chorizo taco, and an al pastor pork taco. The carnitas were *perfect," as was the chorizo and al pastor pork. At two dollars a taco, you can't beat it. You can also get actual Mexican drinks (I went with a Mexican Coke). La Bella Morelia is everything you'd want in tacos, tortas, etc. read more

Authentic Mexican tacos! I was driving thru Macon on my way to Savannah and hungry for lunch. A quick yelp search revealed this place and I love a good taqueria. I ordered 3 tacos - 2 pastor and 1 campechanos. I loved the campechano, it's a mix of steak and chorizo. I didn't really like the pastor, it was a bit fatty and tasted kind of gamey to me but my dining partners all ordered it and thought it was good. I would definitely recommend it if you're looking for something unique and much better than fast food near the highway! read more

My friends and I came here because we saw that there were lots of good reviews. We have since decided that the majority of these must be fake. The service was fine but the food was entirely inedible. The waitress didn't even offer us to-go boxes because she must have agreed with us. My dish tasted like the equivalent of chewing on a cattle ranch work boot. My friend thought that the chicken in his quesadilla must have been sourced from petsmart. Even the vegetarian at the table couldn't stomach the rice. Buyer beware. read more

Not what I expected. Food options are very minimal but the tacos were great! And the guac was amazing. The salsa did not taste very home made but for each their own. My server was great and attentive! read more

If you know me since 2013 I've been a fan of Tripas. So every city I go I must try Mexican food and specifically Tripas Tacos or any derivatives ... This spot didn't disappoint. They had some amazing tripas. Not over crispy or under cooked. Just perfect. In the city of Macon lots of venues close on Monday but this spot was opened as I was looking for some food downtown. But unfortunately the next time I tried to go for Taco Tuesday ... they were closed :'( Will definitely visit this spot for some more tripas ! read more

Best enchiladas I've ever had !! No doubt! Nice kind of hole in the wall place. Service was great!

Always a great place for a tasty southwest meal. Their birra tacos are divine! Highly recommend visiting this restaurant that is not a chain restaurant making it more personal and definitely more flavorful! read more

This is my go to Mexican place in Macon, but they never get my orders correctly. I wouldn't take it back to the restaurant because I am too lazy to go back there. I am giving them three stars due to lack of accuracy on my take out orders. Also, they never give utensils on take out orders so you have to mention about it. Food is okay. You won't be disappointed, but nothing special either. read more

No son claros en los precios. Pedí me sugirieran un buen mezcal, nunca me dijeron precio, y al llegar la cuenta vi que el mezcal era más caro que el plato que me comí, pedí 4 tragos, No me importa pagar el trago lo que veo es mala leche intención del dueño en ofrecer un trago sin decir el precio. En estos negocios debe de haber muy buena comunicación para evitar estos malos ratos read more

An absolute treat to discover this place in Macon. I ordered the Chicken Mole and it was perfection - just the right amount of heat and spice, served with rice and beans. Let me tell you that I also haven't had service this good anywhere in a very long time. Attentive, polite, and a big smile each and every time my table was visited. Great place! read more

One of my favorite lunch/dinner spots! They have the most vegetarian options in Macon! The service is always great. Very chill ambience with a festive flair. read more

WOW!!!!! These are some of the best tacos I have ever had. I would recommend this place to everyone! The guacamole is to die for. Great prices and as authentic as it gets!! read more

Dinner last night. This isn't your parents' Tex-Mex Combo#2 with rice and beans place. Much closer to a taqueria in menu and food. Lots of Northern/Central Mexico taco fillings, like al pastor and lengua. We had gorditas and tacos, which were quite well cooked and tasted great. Too often the meat is overdone and chewy. Not ours. The gorditas were crispy outside and moist/tender inside. Cheese dip was what we wanted .... melted white American cheese. Nothing great or bad. Not over diluted like some places. Server was nice, seemed engaged and wanting to do well .... but looked like she might be new to table service. Not awful, but just no groove, and took long time to get stuff. Juggling 4 tables all arriving same time can be tough on anyone, but new server can struggle a bit. She'll be fine with some time under her belt ( we are assuming she is new). We would definitely come back for the food and another chance with service. A Tuesday night was pretty slow customer-wise, so we will try another weeknight. Not a mask wearing place, but table separated well, so distancing in place. Masks would make us feel better about it, especially if more traffic. read more

GET THE BIRRIA TACOS they are *chef's kiss* the burritos here were lackluster and the bathroom could use a tidying up which is why I'm giving this place 4 stars instead of 5. However, the Birria Tacos are a solid 5/5 and were served with refreshing sauces. read more

I tried La Bella Morelia and am undecided on it overall, could either take it or leave it. Yes, it feels more authentic. They have minimal lighting inside, flowers on the tables and the southwestern color palate going on. The menu is extensive, yet simple. Most of the menu is a la carte. You have options, but don't expect the hipster bells and whistles you may get elsewhere. I tried a few tacos: Al Pastor (pork), Barbacoa (beef), and Nopal (cactus). This is where my indecisiveness comes into play. The tacos were fine. The meat, both beef and pork, were super dry and kind of flavorless. The cactus was too, and clearly from a can, which ok where do you find fresh cacti in middle Georgia. My tacos also were covered in cilantro, like it was cilantro city up in my tortillas. Did I eat them? Yes. Would I eat them again? Maybe. Hard pause. Maaaaybe. I also had a horchata, which I enjoyed. A little creamier and it had jicama added to it which was a little different. My waitress and the woman who I paid at the register were both very friendly and welcoming, and quick service. I'd give La Bella Morelia another shot and order something different, like the Mole or more traditional Mexican items. read more

Outstanding!! Guacamole and chicken taco are tops. Corn tortillas. Family managed. Authentic

Went there tonight 7/20 for the first time. Heard it was good. Sat down got chips/salsa then 20+min later nothing. No drink orders, nothing. Watched staff members at bar on their phones. We decided to leave. Not sure if we'll be back. 2stars for chips & salsa young man. read more

Whoaaa!!!! This place has AMAZING authentic food! My husband and I went all out and sampled the Gordita, pambazo, a tamale, steak taco, and churros!!! And we went all "fat attack" and had seconds of most of them. Best Mexican food in the Macon area and Warner Robins area. I'm hiccuping now I ate so much! You won't be disappointed read more

Popped in on a Saturday for a quick lunch. Food was good, my only complaint is that it wasn't very hot (my cheese enchiladas weren't really melted). Had a nice margarita but be warned there is a decent amount of pulp in bottom if you're like me and not a fan of pulp in your drink read more
