The first time we went to La Sombra Cantina we thought we were going back to Pineda's. We were…read moresurprised at the change and hoped it was at least as good as Pineda's. We were very pleasantly surprised. It's even better in my opinion. The people are very warm and friendly. The food is really delicious. I love that they bring not only good salsa with their fresh hot chips, but also a tomatillo sauce and a black bean dip. We've now eaten there several times. The taco meat has a nicely charred flavor. The tamales were very good. (I'm picky about my tamales. I've tried their ranchero sauce, chili con carne, and sour cream sauce. None of them disappoint. Their rice isn't dry like it is at many other Tex-Mex places. And their $5.00 all day frozen margaritas are worth it. We usually go for the lunch specials that run until 4:00. They don't have mole on the menu, yet. I'm looking forward to their future specials. In this day and age where it's hard to keep a restaurant open, I really hope this one survives. It's not fancy, but the food and service make it worth it. And I'm a picky person when it comes to spending money on food I don't make myself.

A red salsa which was mild and has some nice acidity from the tomato. Then there was a creamy green salsa that had a nice spice. Then finally my personal favorite a great black bean dip. These paired well with the free chips. My partner ordered the queso birria, great flavor and a great consume. Then I had the poblano enchiladas which was the best dish of night! The poblano sauce was creamy cheesy and delicious. There was a nice spiced shredded chicken super tasty. Overall a fantastic restaurant with great service too !

Easy breakdown: Ambiance:5…read moreService:2 Food:3 Ambiance is always nice, clean and welcoming. A classy style without to many decorations trying to make you think Mexico but just collect dust. The Strawberry mojito was perfectly refreshing. The pork tamales were very flavorful and the Mexican rice was cooked good but sadly lacked the authentic taste of real Mexican rice and the refried beans had zero flavor at all. The table side guacamole however is excellent and I loved picking exactly what I wanted in it. Their chips are always fresh and crisp and the salsa is top notch. The black beans sauce they serve with the chips is just okay the lats a lot in flavor. Adding a ton of salt to it makes it much better. The reason for 2 stars instead of 3 is for the poor service as a single person sitting at the bar. I was never given any utensils except what was in the table side guacamole placed in front of me. When I asked for a napkin, I was assuming he would then give me the utensils wrapped in a proper napkin for my upcoming meal but No. I was given a few cocktail napkins from the bar area. I had to get up myself and get the real thing from a unused table. I would recommend it if you are looking to get fast food type flavor and service but at a sit down meal and pay more than it's worth. So NO, can't say I would recommend it. I do recommend getting the Strawberry mojito and the guacamole to go though.

The meal comes with delicious beans as a good compliment to anything you order. It feels so authentically made. Also if you're looking for great breakfast tacos/burritos look no further! The empanadas and tamales actually travel very well if you want to save them for later still so good. The servers and cooks are so nice, helpful and hustling to ensure good service and clean dining room. So tip them well ^_^. It can get busy during lunch so you may have to eat outside. The sauces (green/orange) offer good additional spice and then you can cool back off with their Horchata drinks ;). No exaggeration the food quality and price is spot on! 4.5-5

My husband and I love trompo tacos, tacos, Mexican food in general but every Mexican restaurant that we've tried near our home has been just okay or not good. For dinner we decided to dash our food since we had a long day and everything was still super fresh, hot, and delicious. Perks? It's very close to our home! We're very picky about cleanliness in the flavor and when we say cleanliness we mean the ingredients they use and how fresh everything was when you open your meal and that first bite.

I typically get their taco salad, and I've never had an issue until tonight! My husband ordered the crunchy taco dinner plate, and he said the refried beans must be the culprit as his were terribly salty too! I still give a 4 star as it's really a great location, and we don't usually have any issues! The service is great, the employees are kind and the food is Always fresh! I called the restaurant and spoke with (the Manager) Freddie... he was quick to take action and said "I'll go check them out; thank you for letting me know!". That's what you call a great manager! We didn't want to drive back for a refund, but (Freddie said..) they'll make it right next time. Ole'
