    First time trying La Plazuela, the service and food were really good. We got there about 7pm and were sat immediately. Cute place it has a stage so I'm assuming they do some type of events there. Food: 9/10 Service: 9/10 I would definitely recommend and come back again.

    Service- FANTASTIC! Food- portions are HUGE, you can get away with just doing the chips and salsa with no appetizers and get dinner straight away. Do yourself a favor and order anything CARNITAS. Chicken tacos were good, beans were perfect and very flavorful, and drinks were on point. We have been looking for a place since Cocina Media, Little Manuels, and Juarez closed- this is it! 4 drinks, 2 meals, and an appetizer under $100!

    Outstanding taste. Burrito is very large and could split between two young adults. Carnitas dinner plate very delicious and filling.

    My husband and I had lunch at La Plazuela today, and once again, it was absolutely delicious! We've been a few times now, and every visit has been consistently great. The staff is always so kind and welcoming, and the service today was no exception; friendly, attentive, and helpful. My husband ordered the #5 combo: Enchilada with Chile Relleno. The server gave him a heads-up that the current batch of chiles was a bit spicier than usual, which he appreciated, he loves spice, so it was actually a bonus. He said the chile relleno was incredibly flavorful with just the right amount of heat to enhance the dish without overpowering it. And the enchilada? He said it was the best he's ever had, rich, satisfying, and perfectly prepared. I had the Super Burrito Asada, and it was absolutely perfection. The burrito came lightly grilled, which added the perfect texture. The meat was tender and packed with flavor, and all the ingredients were balanced so well, every bite had the right mix. La Plazuela continues to be one of our favorite spots. Delicious food, lovely atmosphere, and genuinely wonderful staff. Highly recommend!

    Riquísima! Delicious! Our go-to mexican food restaurant in Antioch. It's not very busy, which is surprising. We tend to go for lunch. I usually won't go if I can make it better myself. The beans and rice are flavorful, the chips are crispy and the salsa is not hot, but a nice consistency. The chile relleno has a good balance of chile and cheese. The tamale does have a bit more masa tha. I like, but it's still good. Everything we've had so far has been good. The portions are huge.The service is always good. We definitely enjoy La Plazuela. They have music on the weekends! Fyi-Drinks are more expensive on those nights.

    What a great find! Nice & big with lots of room. Very comfortable and clean. Was most impressed by the person that greeted us and helped us the whole time! Lydia was and is the best part of coming here! Super nice & professional along with a great, positive attitude! She was the only one working, but she was keeping up so great with a few tables that were being utilized. We got there on a Sunday at 11:30 right when they opened up so it wasn't too busy yet she treated us like we were the most important people in the world. She has a great smile, a wonderful way of talking to customers and was just so great that she made the whole experience fantastic! Food was good and a nice large portion. The guacamole was the bomb! Some of the best I've ever had. If you are looking for a nice place to eat at, check out this place! A++++++++++

    Forgot to take a picture before I demolished the enchilada.. I will say the food had really good flavor, so delicious. The service was also good, the waiter checked on my table a few times to make sure everything was good. Also appreciated that they give you a thing of water at your table so you don't have to wait for anyone to come get you more. Not from the area, but if I happen to be in town would definitely be going there again!

    This is a late post from yesterday 02.12.22. I love going to new places so, my niece and I decided to come to this spot. We were just looking to snack on a couple of things because it was almost dinner time. We also ordered to go because we wanted to just eat it in the car. The restaurant is huge, very colorful decorations, and it looks like you can throw a private birthday party here. There's a stage. Service was ok at first. Staff were nice and friendly but the food took forever. There was hardly anyone in the restaurant and we only ordered a burrito, mini chimichangas, and horchata. The food...well the reason why we came to the place was because of the rating. Chimichangas we're horrible. My niece liked her burrito she said it was ok. So I don't know what happened but I got old food or it was moldy. I took a really big bite of one and it tasted like dirt. I'm happy I didn't get sick or throw up. When I looked at the meat it was green. The other pieces were brown. And the recipe did not have vegetables therefore it should not have been green. I immediately returned it. The lady did not apologize and said that was the meat, well if that's the meat I'm not coming back. She did try to offer me new ones but I said no and asked for my money back. That was the first time I've ever gotten bad food like that. Maybe they had a bad day I don't know, but I know meat does not look green. Just fair warning check your food before taking a bite.

The restaurant is beautifully decorated (I heard the tables are imported from Mexico) and although it was busy, never got too loud. A bit dimly lit when we first came it but we quickly adjusted. Everything we had was tasty. The shrimp enchiladas were delicious with the tequila cream sauce. It was a bit rich, so maybe only a half order for me next time. I'm sure anything they have with carnitas is amazing because their carnitas were some of the best I've had. I wish they had aqua frescas or more flavors of jarritos but they have a lot of margarita options!

The plate was extremely hot, the pork was very tough and seemed undercooked for a dish that should be tender, and nearly half of the meat was fat. I also found multiple bay leaves mixed into the burrito. The chips were so heavily salted that they were practically inedible. I actually had to rub some of the salt off before eating them. This was our second visit, and unfortunately, it will probably be our last. Our waitress was very friendly and provided good service, but for the prices they charge, I would rather eat at places like Tu Jalisco or La Costa in Oakley, Guadalajara Taqueria, Taqueria Salsa, or Las Fodongas in Antioch.

    ***** PLEASE READ BEFORE EATING HERE *****…read more I normally do not leave Yelp reviews unless an experience is truly bad, but after today I felt people should know before spending their money here. I chose Guadalajara because I had previously tried their food truck at an event and really enjoyed the food. For Mother's Day, my 17-year-old son wanted to do something nice for me and took me there with my other kid and my mother. Unfortunately, the experience was awful from the moment we walked in. The restaurant was completely dead with barely any customers, and the woman working the front register looked irritated that we were even there. She was unfriendly, rude, rushed us while ordering, and made us feel like we were bothering her the entire time. While ordering, we noticed there were no cooks in the kitchen. After we placed our order, she told us they were "running behind" because there were no cooks available. She also got part of our order wrong, specifically the type of meat we requested. When we politely questioned it after seeing the receipt, she immediately became defensive and insisted we ordered it that way, which we absolutely did not. She eventually said she would fix it before the food came out. The problems continued after that. The bathroom had no toilet paper, there were no napkins or utensils available anywhere in the restaurant, and every time we had to ask her for something she acted irritated and inconvenienced. When my food finally arrived, it was extremely spicy. When I asked why, she claimed I had personally requested it extra spicy, which never happened. At that point it became obvious she had rushed through our order and was not listening to anything we were actually asking for. The atmosphere felt uncomfortable and unwelcoming the entire time. My mother even went to get napkins from the car because she did not want to "bother" the cashier again due to how rude she was acting. I felt terrible because my son had good intentions bringing me here for Mother's Day, and he honestly felt bad afterward for recommending the restaurant. I appreciated his thoughtfulness, but sadly this experience completely ruined what should have been a nice family meal. I will never return here, and I would never recommend this place to anyone. Whether this woman is the owner, a family member, or an employee, management needs to understand that this level of customer service drives people away. Word of mouth matters, and customer service can absolutely ruin a restaurant no matter how good the food may once have been. One star.
