    Bean Tostada Plate
    Chirelle P.

    Went to La Puente with a friend. Neither of us had been. We sat down & ordered pretty quickly. The menu is decent sized. Everything has priced well. Chips & salsa were good. I thought the salsa was a little spicy, good flavor. I had the bean tostadas, which I didn't understand it came with two of them. They were decent & portion size was pretty big. The rice was really good! My friend ordered the enchiladas. I tried the red enchilada sauce, I wasn't a big fan of the enchilada sauce they had. Not a super fancy place, everything seemed clean. Staff was friendly.

    We've been coming here for years!! The family that owns the restaurant prepares traditional food in a very friendly little restaurant. We love it!! The smothered burritos are killer here!!

    Look at all the cheese and sauce!

    Your go to covered in cheese red sauce satisfying your Mexican cravings with great service with unlimited chips. I love dipping the chips in all the yumminess! We did the big combo and split it and it was PLENTY of food and it was only $13.00 Favorite was the cheese enchiladas The beans were really good!

    Boiled chicken?

    Had one of the worst experiences I have ever had. My wife found a piece of raw chicken in her enchilada. We asked for the waitress to come over and look at it. The waitress came over and denied it.. she said it was boiled chicken. I said why doesn't it look like the rest of the chicken. She just kept saying that it was impossible. She didn't offer any type of discount or to replace the meal with another item. She took my card and charged it then didn't bring back a receipt. I hate leaving negative reviews and hurting a business, but this place doesn't have very good tasting food and the service was terrible!

    Chicken fajitas no cheese. With avocado! Yum

    I'm bumping up my rating to 5 stars. This has become a regular stop for us. We've been a handful of…read moretimes since my last review. Being from California I miss 2 types of Mexican restaurants. The first is super flavorful authentic Mexican. The second is really good, consistent, basic items (enchiladas, tacos, tamales) that you can order in combos. More streamlined. This hits the second need perfectly. The shredded beef (I like it in a taco) is AMAZING! So juicy and flavorful! The tortillas are lightly fried and just crispy enough. Chili verde is my favorite dish in general. The chili verde here is not what I think of when I'm craving that, but it's so good. I just consider it a different item and don't expect to get what I'd get at another type of restaurant. We need variety in life right? The chili rellano is so good! I order it most often. We love the salsa bar too! I love the relaxed fee of the place. We've met a lot of buffet workers and all seem to enjoy their job and are always easy to work with. They also seem to work together well. It's never super busy, so we never have to wait to be seated. But there are always people there. The best part for me is the price. We can eat here for the same price as somewhere like Chipotle (plus a tip of course) but get much better food and a better experience!

    Salsa is really good, beans also good, but the rice...... So Good!!!! It pairs so well with the…read morebeans and quesadilla. This place is a great place to eat. Since I can't do higher than 5,I will do it on here. 10/5!!

    The food we had was really good. The smothered burrito is popular for a reason. Sometimes I just…read morewant generic Mexican food you can get in a combo plate (as in a super cheesy enchilada with a taco or tamale or whatever right next to it). This fills that need. The service and atmosphere are a little weird though. The menu is confusing and needs to be explained. When we tried to order a combo plate we were told not to and to find something else. After he explained it, it made sense. But the menu was not clear that it just included one specific type of each item listed, and you didn't get a choice. It was awkward when he teased us for thinking we could get choices at the listed price. We felt a little out of place the whole time we were there, but we would go back now that we understand how the menu/food works, since it was good. Oh yeah, we were also confused about the chips and salsa and the way things were set up here. They bring you an empty bowl and then you squirt the salsa out of a bottle (like a ketchup bottle) into it. No one explained any of these weird things, and we kind of just looked around. The waiter described it as a place for truckers and locals. That's makes sense.

    I review restaurants with my OAT method:…read more O= Overall experience - This place is very nostalgic because I grew up coming here with my grandparents. I honestly am not a huge fan of smothered burritos and enchiladas which is what they are known for. I go for a basic kids cheese quesadilla and hits the spot. They have really good homemade tortillas that have always been my favorite. A= Appearance - It's a more run down place and nothing fancy. The service is good. They brought the food out quickly. T= Taste - I am not a fan of their chips and salsa. They have the salsa on the table in a ketchup bottle that you can just refill your salsa bowl with, which means it's not a fresh salsa. They also have a spicy seasoning on their chips that I do not like. My parents usually get the smothered burrito and have expressed that it is bland.
