I don't write a lot of reviews but this place has the best tacos and the friendliest staff. I live 3 minutes away but I would drive an hour just to go here!! read more

So, first time customer, excited to try them. Chili Relleno Tacos: very good Fries: good Selection of hot sauce: good Nachos: bad.... chips were hard and stale; quite disappointing. Service: very good It was a carry out order...they forgot to give us the Nachos...had to go back..after coming home. Human error...no big deal...they were apologetic but really wish the Nachos were better read more

This place is a wonderful family operated taqueria. Whether ordering dine-in, takeout or thru a delivery app, your wait is never unreasonably long. First place I think about locally if I'm craving Mexican food. Pricing seems in line with other similar restaurants, maybe even underpriced. Taste is worth whatever the price, certainly. The selection on the menu is more varied than you would think if you arrive without first having seen the menu. I've ordered plenty of occasions and noticed many regulars that are familiar with the staff who enjoy interacting with their guests. And even if you aren't known on a first name basis, who I presume to be the father and mother check on you in a warm, friendly fashion I find atypical of most places these days. I believe they have daughters and a son possibly that work in front of house who also provide wonderful customer service. It's rare to go eat somewhere that feels like you're eating at a home-like environment, and this is the closest thing you will find. Go for the food, come back for the food and the people who clearly provide a labor of love in the menu. read more

La Taqueria has been on my radar for years and just never had an opportunity to check it out. I finally did today. Given the number of reviews for its location, it appears to be a local staple for Mexican food. The menu was a good size and they had a lot of different choices of meat choices for tacos. My review today is based on the taco dinner that I ordered. I went with my standard go to selection for tacos in a dinner: Tripa dorada, Al Pastor and Asada. I can definitely say that it was all very different, in a positive way. Their tripa dorada was fried to almost a chicharron (pork rind). I've only had tripa done this way in a few other places and it's not common. The Al Pastor was different from what I've had anywhere else. The meat selection was different. The marinade was different and was more on the sweeter side.....some kind of sweet spice, I can not point it out. The carne asada was also a very different cut. It was nicely chopped. The meat was very tender and was easy on my bite as I ate. Despite all the differences that I am pointing out, the food definitely felt fresh and good quality. This is perhaps why it has as many reviews as it does, they want to be selective and not afraid to do it slightly different than everyone else. The portions were very generous. The salsas were also good. They have one green salsa and two red salsa options. One red salsa was spicier than the other. Another highlight were the Totopos (chips). They looked home made, made in house unlike a lot of places where chips may be processed. The only thing that I would critique was that my asada had a noticeable oil drip, more than I would have liked. That's the only thing I would say. The waitress was very attentive and would come around very often to check on me. I would encourage you to come check it out for yourself. read more

Excellent food. I've never had a bad meal here. The Chorizo y Papa torta is out of this world. Family owned and they are very friendly. The food comes out fast. I always pop in when I'm in town for work. read more

This Mexican restaurant is AMAZING! It just became my new favorite suburban Mexican restaurant! The portions are ginormous! The rice is soooo fluffy! They also service American basics, but listen... you're not coming here for American food. My son had been telling me about them for months and he made a believer out of me! The woman taking our order was friendly with a smile also. Well done to you guys I can not WAIT to come back! read more

A local hidden gem! The portion sizes were generous, and the flavors were excellent. Everything was very fresh and high quality. They have a great vegetarian selection, and even have a spot for it on the menu! The staff was very welcoming and attentive. The food came out very quickly. The dining area was fun and vibrant with lively music! Definitely recommend if you're looking for a hearty, home-cooked meal. read more

Love eating here family is what makes this restaurant I feel welcomed and the handsome young man behind the cashier is helpful the food is good sized quickly got it and always hits the spot when I come in during my lunch break or before work read more

Consistent quality and great food. The employees are very friendly! I've been ordering from them for years!

Good tacos at a reasonable price (I think). The receipt isn't itemized, so I'm not sure how much each item cost and if the prices on their website is accurate. Prices based on online menu: Tacos range from $2.50 - $2.75 (another review said they charged $4) - Loaded with meat, good flavor and texture. My hand smelled like tacos all day no matter how many times I wash them. -Tongue -Carne Asada Flautas $2.50 each - I tried the shredded chicken one, not bad, not the skinny rolled flautas I was expecting. It's more like a meat eggroll. Tamale $2 - Tasted better than it looked! Tried the shredded chicken one, would order again. Tres Leches cake $4 - Label says it's from La Mexicana Bakery. Not too sweet nor too soggy. .|\---/| | o_o | .\_^_/..2022 read more

I think this place will forever be my favorite place for tacos. The service is kind and friendly. The atmosphere is light, and inviting. It is THE place to go when looking for Mexican food. read more

La Taqueria is currently my favorite go-to Mexican restaurant. It's a wonderful family run business that's always welcoming. It's a nice small sit down place that doubles as a takeout. If you sit down to eat, they bring chips and salsa. Now they have a wonderful habanero sauce on the table that is worth mentioning. I have not found anything here that I didn't care for. But, I am a HUGE fan of their Mexican style al pastor tacos. This is typically what I crave with a tall horchata. I have not yet been disappointed. read more

The mini tacos were decent. The portion size was small but satisfying. The toppings were colorful and fresh. The place was neat and quiet.

We were there over the weekend,amazing food and service was outstanding. Note: I forgot and left a Disney Starbucks mug there . Not expecting anything I called, They kept it there! Honest establishment, i am now a loyal customer .Thank You!!! read more

This place is amazing. The owner comes out and greets everyone. The food is very good and reasonably priced for how much you get.

I never knew this place was here, it hidden behind the midas. I walked in and it pretty big inside. They had Mexican music playing and they have a couple of tvs. I sat down and the waitress asked if I like some to drink and they have four different kinds of Mexican fresh water. I got a maracuyá fresh cold water. The taste was very good. She brought me chips and salsa, I look at the salsa and it was super chunky and I tried it and it had a kick to it and it was good like a ranchero sauce. I ordered goridita de chorizo, steak taco Mexican style, Cesena taco Mexican style, Chile relleno taco plain. I started with cesena taco and the meat was super tender and super juicy and the flavor of it was really delicious. If you don't like onions make sure to tell them because it has sautéed onions. I would say it was my favorite taco. The steak was good but it was well done but the choose of cut of meat was good. The chile relleno was delicious like at home mom style. The gordita was good I would say the chorizo would of beben even better if it was crispy with the cheese. Overall this place is good and would recommend. Staff is super nice, seems family owned. Only thing I didn't like was it was not to clean but it seemed like they had been busy read more

My family has been coming here for over 15 years. But this was my first time coming here in multiple years. Even after all those years this place never disappoints. I got a steak taco dinner and some grilled jalapeños on the side. Phenomenal flavor, great salsa, and superb service! read more

La Taqueria is authentic, fresh and reasonably priced. Service is also amazing, there is a family feel within the staff and they take care of you as if you are family too! Taco dinner with three tacos, rice and beans is only $9.50. Carne asada is amazing and their quesabirria tacos are also insanely good. The Pozole is a big warm hug in a bowl. Ambiance is no frills but super clean. a good amount of tables to sit and eat at and chips & salsa while you wait. read more

The food is always delicious, extremely fresh, and comes out of the kitchen quickly. The owner is super friendly and will come by and shake everybody's hand. It really makes you feel welcome. I would recommend this place always, I especially love the American style tacos. read more

Awesome experience here. Only ordered takeout, but the food was delicious (I ordered the steak and Al pastor tacos and I think the Al pastor was my fave) as well as a tamale that was also incredible. My food was ready even quicker then they said (I think 10 min or less) and it was fresh and hot when I got it. The lady who took my order over the phone and also took my payment in the store was over the top nice and made me feel right at home with awesome customer service. I took mine to go but they also offer seating to dine in as well. Would definitely recommend this place! read more

Great place to get authentic Mexican food. As a vegetarian, I usually go for the veggie burrito, which is really good. They also have a lot of sauces that are unique and much needed to add some flavor. The burrito is pretty big and filling, so have a big appetite when you're going here! The pricing is not too bad for the amount that you are getting. The seating inside gives a nice feel and this is a great place to go with friends or family. read more

I am a quesabirria freak--Having discovered them a few years ago I go out of my way to find them--not so easy Many more disappointing moments than happy ones- a lot of bad ones out there ..i.e Cilantro Taco Grill, horrible I stumbled on La Taqueria the other day ....OMG Their quesabirra tacos are without equal, absolutely the best I have ever had, perfect in every way The location is out of the way for me but I happen to be near them once a month. Guess what I will be doing once a month--loading up Great job read more

Ok, same as it's always been...expensive but it'll do the job. Shrimp tostadas and chimichangas are my favorites there. Friendly staff.

I liked this unassuming hole in a wall Mexican place. Everything was fresh and the service was nice (they were slow serving our party of 8 but were really polite). I got shrimp tostadas and was really with my choice. The tostadas was freshly served with salsa, freshly squeezed lime juice, cooked shrimps and topped with a generous serving of avocado. It was definitely refreshing and didn't make me feel ugh like sleepy from eating carby + oily food at all. The food portion was also huge (for my 3 tostadas and other dish that my colleagues got), so bring your appetite here! P.S: they give you complementary chips and fresh salsa while you wait too..nice gesture + tasty snacks! read more

My niece went here and suggested that we try it as well, so my husband, niece and I all went there 02/13/2025. Oh my goodness I don't even know where to start. Little hole in the wall in a strip mall and it's currently MY FAVORITE Mexican restaurant. We were welcomed the second we walked in, told to sit anywhere and then a gentleman came up shook our hands, welcomed us, gave us menus and chip and salsa which were amazing. We ordered our food which the portions were HUGE and the meals were delicious and flavorful. The prices were very reasonable for the portions that you received. The menu has a lot of nice selections as well. I do believe there will be something for everyone. We will most certainly be returning to this restaurant. read more

Authentic! Delicious tacos with great grade of meat and great seasoning. I ordered from here for delivery through Ubereats and even though I wasn't there- you can taste the freshness of the food. The torta includes beans and avocado which is the preferred way for a true Mexican sandwich. The quesabirrias are delicious and heavy on the meat and cheese (wouldn't expect any less). The rice and beans were freshly made and well cooked. Kudos to their salsas. The green is mild and the red is the hot one.However, both have great taste. I ordered their 3 leches cake. I appreciated to know who baked it and if you're debating- get it! Worth every penny. read more

Go there for lunch. Menu shows $2.75 per taco but then after lunch I head to pay and they charged me $4 per taco and they would not give me a refund either! Bunch of BS! False advertising! I don't care if your prices change, if you have it written down you should honor the price! BAD BUSINESS! I'M NOT GOING BACK! Tacos are not even that good! read more

Went here on Friday, ordered five steak burritos for the family. Got home and what we received was five bean burritos mildly seasoned with steak. The steak tasted great just wish the burritos had more than a qtr once of steak. It was so bad, I truly feel like they stole money from me. People speak highly of it, but just not sure if they had a good burrito yet. I've had burritos with more steak in one then we had in all five. read more

So far the best mom and pop place to go to! Authentic Mexican food!! It doesn't look from the outside. However this place was packed with customers coming in and out for take out. They even have pozole and menudo every day. I like that the portions are big and they aren't stingy with the taco meat. They really give u a lot. read more

We have been coming here for over 20 years and the quality always remains high, the staff is super friendly and you see the owners there always. Tacos are awesome and unlike many other places were portions hade shrunk, here you still get a packed taco or burrito. They use fresh ingredients and their sauces are amazing. Love the steak and chicken tacos, the burritos and basically everything on the menu. read more

Nice place and even nicer owners! Went on a Tuesday night. There was steady stream of people getting to go orders and there were other patrons in the restaurant. I got the Flauta dinner and my girlfriend got the taco dinner. The helpings were enough to satisfy you. I had chicken flautas and the chicken was cooked in a ranchero sauce so it gave more flavor than expected. My girlfriend had chorizo tacos and the tacos were stuffed with chorizo. I enjoyed the rice and beans with the dinners. The chips and salsa was good too! I wanted the hibiscus drink but the gentleman said he didn't make any that day, he let me try a watermelon mango mixture which was delicious. You could tell he took pride in his juices. I will definitely order one next time. I will be going back to try more stuff off the menu! read more

Love love love this place! Really unassuming spot in a strip mall but the food is amazing! Tacos are excellent and surprisingly very big, a 3 taco dinner can last you 3 days! Menudo on the weekends and it really authentic and delicious! Prices are super reasonable and the staff are very friendly and helpful! We would eat here every day if we could! They close early, 9:00pm or earlier so make sure you order early! read more

I was looking forward to my Chile Rellenos dinner. Every Mexican Restaurant I go to I make this is my go to food, so I've had a lot of them. These are THE WORST I've ever had. The Chile wasn't chard. They weren't soft. The egg batter wasn't tasty. The cheese inside wasn't melted. What was melted was the velveeta type cheese the 2 peppers were swimming in. YUCK!!! The beans and rice were ok that got this place 2 stars. On line it has this place with 4.5 stars. Evidently there are a lot of people who don't know what authentic tastes like. I do because I'm of Mexican descent. Ii will not go there read more
