    All of the above excellent!! Very authentic, cozy local gem. Carnitas tacos, and refried beans amazing!! Tried homemade chicharon-loved it!! Service was friendly, efficient. My first time visit to Redmond.

    Holy cow! Or is it holy goat(haha)? This tiny Mexican restaurant is amazing! La Frontera was recommended to me by a guy who did some work on our house a year ago. I remember him saying this is the only place that serves the best menudo in the Bend/Redmond area. Well, their menudo was good but not the best I have had. The tripe was tender and there was so much of it! Not knowing how big the burritos are, we decided to get 2 carne asada burritos also. They were HUGE and heavy and delicious! A burrito can easily feed 2 people. Feeling adventurous, we impulsively got some Birria de Chivo as well. Boy oh boy! I'm glad we did. It was better than menudo. First time trying it and I am definitely hooked. The goat meat was falling off the bone and the soup was just yummy. Both the menudo and Birria came with corn tortilla. Their salsas were pretty good too. If you like it spicy, the red one is very spicy. I called in our order and it was ready for pick up when we got there. The lady that helped us was really nice and patient too. Huge servings, good prices. We will be back!

    As my son would say,"now we're talkin'!" As I've tried Hablo tacos, pihuamo and El Sancho in Bend, I've been wanting something like La Frontera for awhile. They have tacos, quesadillas, huaraches, sopes, tacos dorados, and more. Trust me it was hard narrowing down what to order. Looked like they had take home fam meal too written in Spanish on the wall. -tacos: I enjoyed their handmade tortillas, meats (carne asada, carnitas and pastor). Only thing was there were a few pieces of fat in pastor. The meats were seasoned perfectly and cooked just as I prefer-some crispness to the carnitas, little seared pastor and carne asada. -The huarache was delightful and came with two. It was tender yet held the ingredients on top. Soft, tender huarache patty. -quesadillas: never had one like this. It's fried And yummy filled w meat and cheese. Drizzled w crema, topped with lettuce, tomato and cheese. -The potato filled tacos were pretty good- the filling could use little more flavor but The salsa helps. -thought the refried beans were alright, and same thought on the rice. -Pambazo: torta dunked in red sauce. Tasty. *PASS on this: burrito. 1.5/5* Tried this and it may not be popular bc the tortilla was hard on the edges.. and full of rice.. for about $11, def not worth it. Just rice, beans, meat.. (not even sour cream, guac or cheese for that). Salsa: two only but they had great flavor. The red is pretty hot. *Gripe: they've mixed up meat on some items each time I've been here.. I'll def return. Wish it was closer to home!

    2 carne asada and 2 adobada tacos.  They were bigger than I expected.

    Great authentic fast delicious and casual would be the words I use to describe La Frontera. The meats were really tasty; I had adobada and asada. The tacos themselves were bigger than I expected. I ate four and I was definitely full! 3 would have been plenty and I'm a big guy. The tortillas were made in house they were soft and warm but with enough substance to not fall apart when exposed to the lime juice, salsas and meats. I would like to give this place 4.5 stars but yelp doesn't allow that. Very good but not a perfect 5 for me.

    Carne asada taco

    The food here is pretty authentic and I'm Mexican. So I know what I'm talking about. This food comes pretty close to my grandma's tacos and menudo. I would keep coming back for sure !!

    Employees with face coverings used incorrectly
    Francisco G.

    Unfortunately seems as if the The restaurant does not bring importance to wearing a face covering while in the workplace multiple employees with face coverings not worn properly or at all , it seems very irresponsable and frankly ignorant

    This place was recommended to us and it is the authentic Mexican food around. The only issue is that they are in Redmond instead of Bend.

Arriving after 6 pm , place was busy but there were still enough seating for us. Both , my wife and I were tired and very hungry from our 3 hour trip. There aren't many choices for vegetarians but my wife found the Huevos Rancheros. Fried eggs served on a crispy tortilla with refried beans, topped with warm salsa Red or Green. Chopped fresh cilantro, queso fresco, drizzled with sour cream and avocado slices... Her first experience eating the Huevos Rancheros was a good one. Very tasty . Just a little too much salsa. The dish was swimming in it. I had the Carnitas de Puerco. Slow simmered pork, quickly fried at the end. Served with arroz mexicano, refried beans, queso fresco, fresh pico de gallo, guacamole, tortillas a mano. True Mexican Cuisine. This Chef's mother's recipe is a must have... I like the little tortillas where you can put nice bites of carnitas, rice and beans, and guacamole all in one . Very flavorful. The carnitas is moist and extremely tender. Our waitris was informative, friendly, and gave us great service. Glad to have another great Mexican restaurant in the area.

There was only one server who also doubled as the bartender. She was pretty amazing in that she was handling everything and took our orders (there were four of us) without writing anything down. I figured "no way" our orders would come out correct. She proved me wrong, that's for sure. Everything was perfect and exactly as ordered. I had a burrito/enchilada plate and it was fine but not outstanding. I've had better similar orders at other places in the Central Oregon area. Others at my table loved their orders which consisted of pork chops and tacos. I will say the jalapeño margarita was the best I have ever had. Comfortable place but it is pretty small.

My niece's young daughter accidentally spilled her drink right after she got it and the waiter didn't even come over to help clean up - we asked a different waiter for help who did a mediocre job. We had to ask for a mop to keep the lemonade from going fully under everyone's feet. The waiter didn't even offer another drink. We got our own togo boxes since the waiter didn't come back to ask how things were. I recommend going with a small group so you can choose how much of a tip your waiter deserves.

There was some kind of magic in the rice, so good. Bustling, busy, and bright atmosphere. I would definitely recommend and will certainly be back to try the Peruvian options.
