    The food was pretty good but $15 for 3 barria tacos with no sides is insanely expensive for what you're getting.

    Las Palmas - Casual Atmosphere

    This is no longer called Las Palmas. It is now a Guatemalan restaurant called, I believe, La…read moreChapinita so I am leaving a review for that until they change their name on Yelp. Excellent food. We were almost shocked at the authenticity and quality of this food! I had the chicken quesadilla and my husband had the carne asada. Both were excellent and came with the option of grilled cactus. I believe this is billed as Mexican but is actually Guatemalan. The staff is super friendly. It's a small place on Main Street. I highly recommend this little restaurant.

    I'm soooooo glad our little town got this restaurant. Another reason to celebrate our melting pot…read moreof a country. I love when immigrants break out of the fields and factories to follow the American dream, and we get their delicious cuisine. This was our second visit and the restaurant has come a look way. Laminated menus with pictures that were representative of the dishes we received. Empanadas with chicken, mayo and cabbage. Jalapeno enchiladas. Wonderful homemade salsa. My first try of a Michelada and I think it was a good representation. This stuff is authentic. Don't expect cheddar smothered entrees. Do expect nicely seasoned meats, authentic carriers (sopes, rellenos,empanadas) fresh lettuce and cabbage and a healthy dose of cojita queso Blanco. This is the real deal. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the service is slow (they are a lean operation and the servers help prep food), and they use tilapia as their fish, they have no house made horchata, and there was no ceviche or mole.

    I give credit to new businesses with possible growing pains, but any new establishment must not cut…read more"easy" corners. La Katrina is cutting corners where it matters. I do hope, given their smallish town location, that they flourish, hence my two star review, when our dining experience was much more of a one.  Upon walking in, the entry had a covering of slippery slush at the doorway. Entry, not parking lot. Just the entry. It is so easy to just shovel that away before opening (it was two concrete sidewalk sections)...when we left, there was a black rubber mat on half of the slushy walk. The other half had only become more slippery. Definitely not safe for any compromised walkers, which grinds my gears. Why not just shovel it? Not sure at all why they would ignore this. I don't live in WI, so I do not know when it last snowed, but it was not that day. The snow happened at least before the day we dined in.  We, a party of four, walked in, and the restaurant was very cold. I never took my jacket off, and I never warmed up either. It was not just chilly...it was COLD.  I need to first state that the server was as kind and polite as can be...I suspect he was new, due to rookie mistakes, including not dividing the check as we'd asked (asked for each couple (four people total) to be separate, and we ended up with three checks). Anyway, everybody is new at some point. As far as the rest of the missteps, I feel he was set up to fail due to whatever the kitchen dynamics are/were.  We ordered drinks to start. Two of us had beer, which was fine. My friend had the last Diet Pepsi (our server told her it was the only one...), and it was outdated and flat. I had a margarita, and it was most certainly not a handmade libation. They seemingly used a mix, as it was relatively tasteless, and I questioned if there was any tequila in there at all. To their credit, they do not say the drinks are authentic, so my bad. But one would assume that at an $8 price point in Abbotsford, Wisconsin, they would be authentic...though they were on special for $5 when we were there.  Eventually, meals started to come out. They were not evenly served...stuff happens, but we were the only four diners in there. There were two people at the bar, but we were the only table in the expansive dining area.  There were four of us, and our friends were served room-temp meals on cold plates. They were not impressed by the presentation or the taste. The most ridiculous thing was the California Burrito with a side of fries. "Side of fries" was LITERALLY six fries. I am not exaggerating...it was literally SIX fries of varied lengths. Technically, five fries and two hard, crispy ends, which I'm counting as one. How is that even a thing?  Once meals were served one-by-one, my fajita meal finally arrived, ten minutes after the three other meals arrived. This was a staggered start, for sure. Stuff happens, but with nobody else dining in, and seemingly no takeout orders going out, this wasn't cool in my book.   As typical for a fajita order, I had a little plate with beans and rice and a skillet of meats and veggies. I had to ask for tortillas, much to my server's confusion. He did not understand why I wanted tortillas for my fajitas. I never did get an actual plate to use, so I ate over the barely warm skillet of meat and veggies.  Perhaps they are just working out the kinks, but there was so much to be disappointed about here. I must admit, though, that my fajitas, while not great, were good and relatively generous in size. My husband also liked his entrée. I felt terrible that my friends' meals were so unsatisfactory, as they had come from two hours away just to have dinner with us, as we were in Abbotsford from Chicago. So they did all that driving just to see us, making me feel awful that the dining experience was what it was, as I had been the one to suggest La Katrina.

    La Taqueria is now my favorite Mexican restaurant in Wisconsin Rapids…read more I would describe it as fast casual- you order at counter, find a table and pick up your food. Fast, fresh and friendly. The margaritas are pre- mixed, but one of the better premade ones I have had My seafood bowl was excellent.

    This is definitely not the restaurant I expected when we pulled up in the parking lot outside a…read morestrip mall. Inside, we found excellent food, tasty drinks and experienced fantastic customer service. There were quite a few people in line when we arrived. Not only did the ordering line move at a good pace, the brief wait provided us the chance to look over the wide selection of burritos, tacos, meals and beverages the restaurant offers. The individual waiting on us at the counter was patient and helpful with his suggestions. We ordered, found a table and a short time later our drinks were delivered. I enjoyed the cucumber margarita and others enjoyed a mango margarita and strawberry margarita. If I wasn't driving, I would have had another! I ordered the chilies verde. It was so good. Tender pork and really good flavor. The portion size was generous. Another dining partner had a burrito bowl. It was large and according to my partner, very flavorful. Others with our group had tacos and one had a California burrito. It was so huge, they brought a half home. There were no complaints about the quality or taste of the food. Service was on the mark. I definitely plan to return in the future. It appears it would be a fun place to visit in the summer with outdoor seating and the ability to open large overhead garage doors to let the weather inside. In reality, I give it 4.5 stars; however, we know Yelp simply can't trust us with half stars in the actual review.
