Food and drinks were great! Kenzie was an amazing server! Good ambience too. Will definitely be back

Whole menu is a la carte, which wasn't my favorite thing but that's how they're rolling. Our server was Mo, who was great! I ordered the ribeye steak taco, fish taco and chorizo taco. I'm a fan of authentic street tacos so I got mine on the corn tortillas. All three were good but my favorite was the chorizo! The fish taco was good but the slaw didn't have a lot of flavor to it. Ribeye was tender. All three had enough meat that I was ok not having the Mexican rice as I'm accustomed to from other local Tex Mex spots. And if you're looking for good guacamole, get theirs! I really could have had it as my entree alone! Despite them being packed, service was very good. Definitely worth giving them a try! read more

Would NOT recommend! My hubby grabbed takeout from here. Don't bother calling because nobody's going to answer the phone and the automatic service is just gonna turn off your phone call. The automatic service tells you their hours and how to place a takeout order and how they don't accept reservations and if you have any inquiries, you have to email them. Now let's get into this terrible food that isn't worth $70!!! 2 Quesabirria tacos $6pc (the meat, lacked seasoning, and birria jus as well.) 2 Al Pastor tacos $4pc (was the only thing flavorful. It was just missing the pineapples that supposed to come with it.) 2 Chorizo tacos $4pc (it was extremely dry and didn't have any flavor/seasoning to it.) Single Steak fajitas $18 add on shrimp $18 more (which we only were given three pieces.) This one just blew me! Because you see the amount of fajita and shrimp we received that cost almost $40! It also came with a little BS side of cheese, sour cream, lettuce, and pepper/tomatoes along with three flour tortillas. The fajitas lacked any flavor and at this point it just taste like I was just eating cardboard with the exception of the Pastor tacos. With all this being said, I would not recommend eating there. Just go to your local Mom and Pop Mexican restaurant. It's unfortunate that this concept is just not it for Alex but all his other concepts are great! read more

This is the new place to have a great meal! The food is delicious, flavorful, and fresh. I could honestly eat here every day. The service is wonderful, even during a busy rush, I felt tended to. The music is awesome, the noise level can get a little loud, but I'd rather have that than a quiet, stiff restaurant. You can go wrong here, anything you order will be great! I highly recommend the taquitos, tablitas, guac, the Thai'd up taco, and the gringo!! Also, the Coco Loco reminds me of a drink on the beach in Mexico! GET IT!! read more

I thought the food here was delicious! Definitely recommend the dip trio to start. I enjoyed the enchiladas and tacos as well. The service was friendly but a little slow but it was the weekend so they were busy! read more

Again, great service and delicious food! Tried the charro beans this time. 1 chicken enchilada and charro beans is a full lunch for me! Left with a happy tummy. read more

First let me say the salsa and chips are $3.00 not free when u set down do not asking where is the chips they on the menu with a price they are good and you can choose you salsa you like they are all delicious. We also had the guacamole with chips was delicious also. Do not order the Tablitas the Mexican short ribs for an appetizer they or tuff and dry.We order drinks on the rocks and frozen not that good for the price. margarita 5 out of 10. We had several different taco they was delicious. We was setting out side but the table was to small with all those wooden larger block with Salt and pepper, silverware and menus not enough room for your Food we had to move inside. Was a litter better in the bar area. Service was good. read more

If you're in Jackson and craving flavorful Mexican vibes, La Presa Taqueria is a gem you don't want to sleep on. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere hits -- lively, warm, and seriously inviting. The folks behind it traveled from Mexico City, Oaxaca, Texas, and beyond to build a menu that mixes street-style tacos and hearty Tex-Mex with real technique and respect for the cuisines' roots. read more

La Presa Taqueria - Power bowl 10/10 added fajita chicken - Tex-Mex Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

Checked out La Presa for the first time tonight, and while the space and menu have a lot of flash, the food itself landed more in average territory for me. The standout, honestly, was the chips and salsa. The chips are thin, crispy, and clearly fresh, and the salsas (green and red) are house-made, with the red salsa served warm -- which I really liked. They're $3 (not complimentary), but this was the most enjoyable part of the meal. Everything else was more hit-or-miss. The redfish taco was severely overcooked, which was disappointing. I do appreciate that there are vegetarian options, but the cauliflower tacos lacked flavor and substance -- they felt a bit underdeveloped. The tuna tostada was decent and fairly priced at $10 given the amount of fresh tuna, but again, nothing that really stood out. Service was attentive overall, though a bit disjointed and rushed. I ordered a margarita early on, but the bar was backed up and it didn't arrive until after both appetizers and entrées were already on the table. My biggest issue -- and this may not be an issue for others -- was the noise level. Even at 6pm on a weeknight, it was extremely loud to the point that it was hard to hear the person sitting across from me. On top of that, they play 50 Cent's "In Da Club" at full volume for birthdays (3 times in the span of 1 hour) while staff dance through the room with a sparkler. Some people will love that energy, but for me it was overstimulating. That said, I'd be willing to come back and try a few more things. It seems like it could be a decent lunch option if you're already shopping in Highland Village. For Jackson natives, the vibe is very reminiscent of Babalu before it closed -- flashy, energetic, and scene-forward. Not a bad experience, just not one that fully delivered yet. read more

David the bartender was exceptional his suggestions were absolutely fantastic. Good was awesome. Service even better!!! Food was delicious and the margarita was...WOW !!! read more

Service was REALLY. Seems like they are under-staffed. You also could not hear your conversation, it was very loud in there. Food good but not worth the poor service read more

Had a girls birthday lunch here on a Thursday. Wasn't overly crowded. Had a little miscommunication right at first where the hostess brought us to a table that wasn't clean and told us to wait there until someone cleaned it. We were awkwardly standing and waiting and the lady who was cleaning the tables chastised us for being at the table and informed us that we couldn't just come to a table, we had to wait at the hostess stand. We explained that the hostess brought us there and she rolled her eyes and wiped off the table. No apology or anything. From then on though the service was stellar. The food was fresh and delicious. The cocktails were strong, maybe a little too strong! Haha! Favorites were the dip trio and quesabirria tacos. We will definitely add it to our list of favorites. read more

Went again and it was excellent! We got the chicken fajita and chicken fajita quesadilla. Both were so good and also the portion sizes were big. Service was quick and the place was packed. The salsa roja this time was MUCH better to me. Less tomato-forward and I could taste the peppers and onion. The salsa verde is served cold. It was good, but a little too salty. The mangonada frozen drink was 10/10. read more

So great to have upscale Mexican in Jackson. My family lived everything and looking forward to coming back.

Went for lunch and it was great! Had the house margaritas with chips and guac to start. Then had a variety of tacos as my entree. The food tasted authentic and fresh and service was good. read more

From South Texas here, first off. Ordered to-go and got left on hold for 20 minutes by the manager. Called back later and they finally took my order. They have store bought tortillas. Asked for half and half fajitas and was charged an ADDITIONAL 75% for the other meat. Definitely not worth it and overpriced. read more

Amazing food!!!! They need to work on service and figuring out how to handle the chaos but im sure it will be better as time goes on! read more

Food was average at Best. When asked if possible to have the fajita steak cooked to order, we were told no that it was pre-cooked and well done. Wow is all I can say for a high-end Mexican. The food came very quickly as though it was just sitting out ready to bring to the tables. Service was somewhat annoying in their use of the red flag. You put it up on your table and multiple people either coming by or not coming by. The margaritas tasted OK but I'm sure that they had very little to no tequila. Just an extremely disappointing experience and I don't plan on returning. read more
