La Pinata
Ron H.

La Pinata is perhaps the best Greater Dayton Metropolitan Mexican Restaurant. We in the Dayton area have seen a proliferation of Mexican and Tex-Mex restaurants, and there is no consensus on the "best." Our nomination is La Pinata, and our favorite is a newer free standing restaurant near 48 and Sheehan. We like the abundant parking, the patio dining, the bar area, the outer and inner dining rooms, the "newness,".... Always a great greeting with options of seating to suit clients rather than server convenience. Service is excellent. My wife always requires more time to decide on menu items; I am probably going to recommend a steak fajita. We like the abundant windows and cheery furniture, near perfect service, ambience, and the dining. The fare is appropriate for the tariff.

The server was nice but really scatterbrained. The food came out hot, but the chicken was over cooked and the tortillas were rubbery. I'm not sure that I'll be back to this location anytime in the near future.

Chicken n Rice Soup
Eric L.

Ordered chicken and rice soup. It's consistently good soup. We showed up at opening and they brought our food out quickly. Drinks were overpriced for the area, $2.75 for iced tea. I've paid more but not usually in a restaurant in a residential area far from the "city". I'm always happy with food and service here though.

3 taco combo!

The food was okay. Everything was kinda dry especially the lunch combo. I had upgraded from shredded beef/chicken to steak and It tasted alright but wasn't really worth the up charge. Anyway, the tacos were good and the salsa was nice (has a stronger onion taste than most)

Pollo al Horno (yellow plate) Fajitas Vegetarian on the skillet

I'd say this is one of the best Mexican restos I've ever been to! Really nice interiors, great staff, a wide variety of food selection and super delicious food!!! I had their Pollo Al Horno, oh man. It looks simple and typical but it's really good. Their nachos and cheese dip was tdf!!!! Their sour cream is different too. Idk what makes it different but it's better than those i've had before. Their pink lemonde was also so yummy! Idk why everything here is better?! Lol! Great experience!

Went tonight and had a good meal, as always. The chicken quesadilla is made with pulled chicken which is very tasty.

The food is delicious. Friendly service. Carry out was quick and easy. The only downside is they get so busy and don't answer the phone

I recently ordered delivery from this restaurant! I ordered the Classic Smash Burger which comes…read morewith an order of fries and your choice of dipping sauce. I chose the Chipotle Ketchup. The Classic Smash Burger consists of two all beef patties on a sesame seed bun. The burger was cooked very well, was cheesy and very flavorful! The fries were seasoned well and are shoestring style. They were good. Not too oily and very plentiful. The chipotle ketchup was okay but not really what I was expecting. It is a bit spicy, perhaps too much to my liking, but I am sure many people would enjoy it. Everything was carefully placed in a nice cardboard box lined with brown paper and sealed. The order itself was placed in a brown paper bag. I do recommend. Food is good, plentiful, and a decent value compared to other chain type restaurants! I would go again as they have a pretty decent selection of food and this experience was good. Recommended!

Nice outdoor seating, but our waitress was very slow at greeting us and we spent probably an hour…read morewaiting on our food because of them being shorthanded. We definitely understood the situation, but our waitress was really overwhelmed and neglected her outside tables! When we received our food, it was not as good as we expected, especially for the price that we paid. We will not be returning. We have spoken to other friends that have also had the same experience. No pictures worth sharing.
