My go to Mexican restaurant without having to drive all the way to Mexican town. The food can't get more authentic than La haciendas menu. Inexpensive restaurant compare to the surroundings ones. If you're looking for a good meal with some booze, this the place to go! I order the homemade sangria, and omg it was delicious! I recommend trying out the combination dinner, comes with a variety of food. Service was good, the waitress was constantly checking on us. Local Mexican restaurant that has been open for over a decade. The salsa isn't chunky, but it's tasty serve with some homemade warm chips. Margaritas are on point. read more

I tried the tamales based on another review. We do not share the same enthusiasm. Mine was extremely dry with very little flavor.

The food is very good here. We had an excellent waitress. She checked on us & made sure we were happy with our order. We enjoyed our dinner. I had flan for dessert & it was delicious. We will be back. read more

This restaurant is "plain and simple" inside and out, but that's just fine with me because the food is not. The salsa's are true to their name: mild is so delicious I could eat it like a cold soup and the hot has enough zing/ heat to slow your chip dipping pace, but still coming back for more. Guacamole is smooth and doesn't break your chip, but their chips are heartier than most restaurants. I had beef and cheese taco dinner (3) with nicely blended beans and a mildly seasoned side of rice. The restaurant is larger inside, with a bar that a small handful of guests can sit at; booths and tables for up to 6. Interior decor is basic, clean and comfortable. I'm happy to continue supporting this local business and encourage you to do the same! read more

Well we showed up here and the parking lot had only 4 cars in it so I kind of figured it wasn't a popular place, it's not very authentic because some of the authentic food items u would want on a Mexican menu are not here ( tacos de lingua, carne asada burritos, flourtas etc) the staff was very friendly and they gave us a complimentary basket and salsa, it was quite cold inside the restaurant though as if they had the A.C. cranked. I had the Tacos de Carbon because they had nothing else I wanted and when it got here they brought it in efficient time but the beans were a little cold and the meat had no flavor, very plain. The rice was actually the best tasting item on the plate. I wouldn't say I wouldn't eat here again but I'm glad I tried it and got it out of the way. read more

This is right next to my work, but I still don't plan on returning. The food is very bland Tex-Mex. The salsa has the consistency of water - there is no hint of the vegetables that sourced this atrocity. The chips tasted a bit stale or soft-ish and didn't have enough salt. The meat was bland, and the burrito was greasy. As other reviewers mentioned, the interior was tired and felt a bit on the dirty side. It's not usually busy at lunch nor dinner time, and with lots of other good Mexican and Tex-Mex options nearby, I can see why. read more

I've eaten in and gotten take-out a couple times now. This is a pretty good Mexican place. Entrees run anywhere from $8 to $15. The chicken they use is moist and flavorful. Their red enchilada sauce has a spicy kick and the rice has always been fresh and tasty. Their "salsa" is actually hot sauce... so if you're a chunky salsa lover, you won't find it here. The service is probably the only thing they really need to work on, because the servers seem to congregate in the back instead of tending to the tables. There's a full bar and televisions if you want to stop in just for a drink... but I suggest sitting down for a nice dinner. read more

Good quality Excellent service Good parking Fajita very good Fast service Recommended read more

Found this place by accident. I ordered basic tacos. Beef,onion, and cilantro with corn tortillas. I had had to ask for my tortillas to be double stacked. I'm 43 and this has always been the standard on a taco with corn. They didn't even put the tortillas 9n the flat grill. Tbis I also thought was basic practice on a authentic taco. They went very light on the onion and cilantro. Cmon its a basic taco lol. Also the sign where they say the bank charges 4 cents for every dollar I say is BS. Won't be coming back. Taylor is pretty close to Detroit. Drive the extra 20 min and get some real authentic mexican. read more

The food here is great. I like the quesadillas and rice. The staff are nice and the service is great. Most of the time there are not many people there, but around the dinner hours it can get busy. I defiantly recommend this place. read more

Awesome spot for Mexican food, enchiladas with green sauce are my favorite here. Salsa is that smooth Americanized style water salsa. Which we like a lot over the chunky version. Mixed steak and chicken fajitas are awesome too read more

Growing up this used to be in Detroit and this was a staple in our family when another Mexican restaurant shut down. I have gone here and there when the location changed and I wanted to go a couple times during Corona but they were shut down. I read one review where they charge literally for everything and I assumed yes sour cream jalapenos I get that. What I was not expecting was to be charged for extra chips and salsa. My problem it was not disclosed or on the menu. I was offered another basket, btw were not really filled and the sauce cups are pretty small. I declined lucky i did. The queso flameado tasted and looked like hamburger meat very soupy with tomatoes and not very much cheese. They only serve it with 3 tortillas. This is an appetizer between 2 people. Now that third basket would of came in handy for all that I had left over. When I got the bill I was shocked. An additional $5 to my bill. I do not know if this is a new thing because of Corona bc I do not recall this in the past, but there is far better places to go and on top of it will not be nickelodeon and dimmed. Way over paid for half filled baskets. I will no longer be a continued patron and if you guys keep this up you will be losing business which honestly looks like it has been happening because your never busy. read more

La Hacienda - a hand holding a check - Mexican Near Me - Taylor, Michigan

After my last review (take-out), we decided to visit this place in person. I was absolutely taken aback. We got there at 7:28 PM on a Saturday night. We were 1 of 2 couples in there and yet it took 10 minutes receive menus after only being acknowledged by a "sit anywhere you want" without even making eye contact. RESTERAUNT TRICK: That red sauce that they bring to your table with your "red light" chips is just CANNED tomato sauce and MAYBE some cumin and salt, usually too much salt! This cuts down on their cost by taking advantage of their patron's ignorance of what "salsa" should look and taste like. THAT is not it. When they FINALLY managed the short walk to our booth, I ordered a glass of Chardonnay, as usual, and a Diet Sida for my husband. When they brought my "wine" (see picture), I knew from the color that a taste would make me ill. When a Chardonnay has been sitting for a long period of time, opened or not, it can "turn". It gets darker, like apple juice, and a bitter taste like sucking on a dirty penny. Chardonnay should be clear with a hint of amber. My husband told me to taste it. Why I did, I still don't know. If this was to be any indication of further service and cuisine, I wanted neither. I picked up my purse, offered to pay for the soda and left. They are complacent. They think they corner the market on Mexican because of their monopoly (so far) and have no use for customer satisfaction anymore. What will happen when competition comes knocking? read more

My husband and I both have travelled past this restaurant a gazillion times but never stopped. We decided to give it a try. My first impression upon walking into the restaurant admittedly was not a good one. This place is in need of a major makeover. The table, chairs, lighting and overall decor is extremely outdated. We didn't see anyone in sight to seat us, so we seated ourselves. We waiting over 15-minutes before a young lady stopped by to give us a menu. The menu has many choices so that kept us busy until the waitress returned to take our order. We were also give a basket of chips and rather thin salsa. I would have appreciated a wax sheet to line the chip basket. I was skeptable as to whether these are washed between customers. The chips were okay; not salty as all. The dip was thin but didn't taste bad. I ordered the combo meal which came with a beef taco, cheese enchilada, burrito with some sort of chopped beef inside and tostada. All in all, no complaints other than the chopped/stredded beef in the burrito could have been more tender and flavorful. All the food was at proper temperature and tasted pretty good. The beans and rice were nothing to write home about, but I haven't found a Mexican restaurant that has had outstanding beens and rice anyway. My husband enjoyed his meal but felt he could have been given two chimichungas instead of one for the price. However, he enjoyed his meal as well. Can't decide whether or not to return, I just really didn't like the atmosphere. Perhaps carryout. read more

Food here is great, service is awesome. That being said, the only complaint I have is the menu online. PLEASE have someone put your menu online. Don't take a picture of the menu and post it. Hard to read, never centered and blurry. read more

Food is very bland, no flavor. Sat here for the whole 4@ mins without a refill. Only one waitress and the food was soo greasy. Everything was deep fried. I do not recommend this place. Though it was clean, just terrible food. read more

The food is yummy! Portions are large for the prices. Staff is helpful and friendly, wether dine in or carry out. I love the combination plate. So good. Not Mexican village but good for close to home Mexican food. read more

This is the real deal. If you want authentic Mexican food (not Chili's Tex Mex), then you should support this local business. It's one of the main spots in my rotation and the only Mexican restaurant I frequent in the area (there are several to choose from). Recommend: Combination Dinner, Mexican Plate, Fajitas, Botanas Pros: Authentic food and staff (practice your Espanol!), good prices, full bar, lunch specials on weekdays. Cons: Yes, the decor is old. Truth be told, I kind of like the wood paneling and random Mexican artifacts on the walls. read more

This is hands down the best place to go for Mexican food. My family and I have been going here for years! The food is always fresh and very reasonibly priced. I have not found a Mexican restaurant that even compares. My fav dishes are the wet burrito, vegeterian dinner (if you are a cheese lover) and the cheese enchiladas are to die for. The rice and beans served with the meals are exceptional! You can tell they are homemade and not out of the can. The spanish rice is very good and served with most meals. If you are looking for truly authentic mexican food. This is the place to go! read more

The goods:food was excellent, menu had great variety, margarita was tasty, chips were warm and salsa was good, prices were fair, portions were generous The bads: the place was dead and the waitstaff were barely attentive, we didn't wait too long for stuff, but it looked like they would rather chat in the corner than see how we were doing, dining area was dirty and smelled funny, on our way to sit in our booth, there were three tables that had not been cleaned and they stayed that way for 20 minutes The verdict: La Hacienda had good food, but they need to clean up their act. Also, the waitstaff need to get a clue. I probably won't be going back anytime soon. read more

Brilliant!! My hats off to the cook .. It's not a fancy joint; it is quaint with best food and great customer service . We came across this place after Ford Museum trip and left with belly full and happy smiles read more

Don't let this humble restaurant fool you. It's a bit outdated, but wow the food is very good! We were greeted promptly and seated, and our chimichanga and enchiladas we're wonderful. The prices are very reasonable. Definitely will return to this restaurant! read more

The Caldo de Res soup is fantastic full of the right beef bone soup and lots of the original veggies that they use from south of the border! The red salsa is very mild but that's to be expected in Michigan. It's ok too. read more

We love this place and we eat here often. A little outdated on the decor but who cares? The food is always great and they have a full bar.

Delicious, authentic Mexican food. Generous portions, good prices, what's not to love? And-clean bathrooms, always a bonus.

This restaurant has a great variety of authentic Mexican food. I especially love the cheese or bean tacos with the flour tortilla. The tortilla is soft and fluffy inside and crispy on the outside. Just perfect. The cheese enchiladas with verde sauce are also a good choice. The salsa is more of a runny sauce, no chunks of anything but the chips are good. La Hacienda could certainly use some updating to the decor but the food is great and the service has always been good as well. read more

This place is amazing in every way very from politeness to quality!! Also serves alcohol read more

I'm not going to give one star because it's not like I found hair in my food or the service was terrible but I don't understand this place. I've had friends say this is their favorite Mexican joint. I don't get it. I live a few blocks away and I won't go here. I've been twice. Extremely underwhelming. The food is mediocre. There's nothing about the place to entice me. Plus I believe there's people living in it you can see the lights on at night which hey that's not my business but I don't know I can't put my finger on it but it seems a little creepy. It is also so easy to hit 94 and go down to Mexican town it's worth the 10 minute drive if your in the La Hacienda neighborhood. I came here a few years ago and was disappointed I don't know why I decided to visit again just recently but it made me remember why I never came back. It's not my thing. read more

The hubs and I tried this after countless recommendations from family and friends. It was really good, but it's been a couple months and we haven't been back. We were satisfied but I don't remember many details, so I guess, for me, it doesn't warrant the 5 stars. I do however remember the botana. Spectacular. The service was slow at first but actually ended up being really good. The lady knew it was our first time there and really wanted us to enjoy ourselves. She made recommendations and kept checking to make sure we liked everything. We really should go back and probably will fairly soon. Anything that provides a decent alternative to Mexican Fiesta is a winner in my book. read more

The dinners we all ordered were very good. They were delivered to our table in a very timely manner by a lovely waitress! What more can you ask for! Plus it is less than a mile from our house! The strawberry margaritas were tasty, too. We will definitely be back read more

This restaurant used to be called That's Amore Family Dining. I remember that from my childhood. Now it's a Mexican Restaurant. When we were living in Dearborn Heights we ate here almost every week. I've tried most things on the menu. Things that I remember enjoying were the Pork in Green Sauce, the tamales, the avocado Salad. The service is good because usually it's dead in there. read more

This restraunt started out in my old neighborhood...Warrendale, so after I moved imagine how excited when I heard they were putting one in Allen Park!! The staff very friendly, the food very authentic! Recommend the Botana with beans and chrizo, or chili Rellinos (cheese)...hubby likes the Chicken chimmi! Some times I think they could be more generous with the size and toppings on the botana...just sayin read more

This is a great spot for Mexican food Downriver. Everything we ordered was fresh and cooked to perfection. They also had a full bar, which was seriously underutilized. The place was pretty dead for a Saturday night, but if you're looking for a scene in Taylor, you're going to be pretty disappointed anyway. read more

My favorite place for Mexican food. The real deal authentic goodness! The sauce they put on their enchiladas is deep, smoky, and delicious. All the way down to the salsa they bring you for your chips you won't be disappointed. The decor is nothing to write home about, but I would be sad if it was ever updated or changed. It fits just fine. It's comfortable, just like the food. I have never been there and seen it packed. I don't know if I go on off days or if they do most of their business through carry out. The service can be slow, which can be a tad annoying since the place has been pretty empty every time I've eaten there. But the waitresses sweet personality, and the food make up for the slowness. A great place for authentic delicious Mexican food. read more

Read about this one and thought it would be a good stop for our family of four. Definitely reasonably priced, but food very average. No heat, very little flavor. Nothing special. Would not go back. read more

I read the reviews..so i decided to give it a try..i went in with a open mind,i usually go to southwest detroit for my mexican fix.well,the waitress was very nice,the atmosphere was quiet (i was the only one there)..i ordered flour tacos deep fried with beans & rice. The rice was dry, the beans were okay. my tacos were huge in portion,but it lack flavor, the meat was not that good. will never again go in there. did not enjoy my food, if a homeless man was around i would of given him my food. Do not bother going here,if your taste buds are dull then go, if not save your money, wish i would of. read more

I have been frequenting this family's restaurants for over 20 years. They used to be on Warren Road near the Southfield. So happy with this location. It is a weekly favorite of mine. Great food, nice family business, Best botonias I've had anywhere, ever. I walk in, they ask me if I'm having the usual and the yum begins. I wish they had WiFi but I'm good with my 4G connection. read more
