    Wasn't as good this time. I do not recommend their stuffed jalapeños. The chips and main courses were pretty good.

    horrible experience the waitress got my order wrong, asked for chicken tacos and got beef tacos.. she waited at least 15-20 minutes to come back to the table to ask how everything was going so I could re order the chicken tacos i asked for .. so when I finally got the chicken tacos a BONE was in the taco.. I can't make this up had to take a picture.. and she wouldn't even take the chicken tacos off the bill.. will truly never go back again hope everyone sees this and considers going to PLAZA any location highly recommended

    chicken and chorizo burrito
    Beth K.

    We were all in the mood for Mexican food today. We ordered" to go " from La Tolteca on Rte. 50 in the Bury. Since this is my friends favorite Mexican restaurant and was her choice, she said she would pick it up. She said the restaurant was packed at lunch and the parking lot was full for a weekday. They have lots of lunch specials Mon.-Fri. from 11:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. FYI you can get the lunch special price to go as well. I got the taco salad with chicken and my other 2 friends got the chicken and chorizo burrito. All the food was so good! The taco salad was super fresh, and the bowl was ultra- crispy and bubbly. My friends said the burritos were spicy and had just enough heat. I really enjoyed the fact they each one of us got a brown BAG of tortilla chips complimentary with each our entrees with salsa and that Mexican white sauce. The Mexican white sauce is a sauce that's often served at some Mexican restaurants on the east coast. It's made up of miracle whip, milk, and spices. The portions of food are humongous, and you will have leftovers. I ordered a side of guacamole, and it was so good I could have eaten it with a spoon.

    Veggie Fajitas

    Great spot! The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. The staff is super nice. Was happy to see a list of vegetarian options but it wasn't much compared to the rest of the menu. The margaritas are a hit (you're definitely going to get more than 1)! The one thing I will definitely be coming back for is the chips, salsa, and the white sauce... I don't know what the white sauce is consisted off, but it is so good, a second round was needed! Will be back again :)

    White dip and salsa

    Used to live in Salisbury and this has always been one of our favorite Mexican restaurant. Moved away for 7 years and was back in Salisbury and ate here for old time sake. Just as good as we remembered. Awesome chips and salsa. Try the white dip. So good!!

    Our waiter was horrible

    I made a reservation here for 13 people upstairs. Coming in and getting seated was a breeze as they were already expecting us. Instead of our table having enough seating for 13 it was for 7. Since no hostess was available and no one ever greeted us or showed us to our seats we found another table and just pushed it over to connect along with the chairs. After 12 minutes of being seated we continued to see 3 waiters busily serving other guests however we were never greeted. I decided to go downstairs and speak with the manager who stated he would have someone take care of us only then we're we served. The drinks were great but the food was bland. My beef taco had the most taste as my Texas fajitas left much to be desired and the guacamole was extremely runny. Would yo back for the drinks but not the food. We were there to have a ladies night so each other's company and no husbands or kids made us happy along with alcohol.

    Chicken, beef, shrimp fajitas

    So this place looks promising, probably more than what it is, the inside is spacious and staff is nice and rather quick I must say, but the food is more tex mex than Mexican, if you are like me and look for tacos in a Mexican restaurant don't come here because they don't have all of them, just ground beef and chicken, it reminded me of a boujee taco bell more than anything, the fajitas tasted ok

    Carnitas

    Had Carnitas with was the worst representation of the dish I've ever had. It was just fried hard pork. No flavor what so ever. The rice and beans were fair at best. I give the meal a 1. The waiter said this is how it's prepared here and they sell a lot of it. I've traveled through Mexico San Diego, LA and a numerous cities on the east coast and have never had this dish presented so bad.

    The owner and the waitress were friendly and the Mexican themed decor inside is cool . Happened to stop by because we were staying in Salisbury after the beach. The food was actually pretty good jus missing some bold Mexican flavors you would expect. the table they provided for a group of 6 was small but the waitress wAs nice. But the reason for the 3-star rating is because the food to me was just okay. It is rated highly but maybe people living in this area just don't know what good Mexican food really is.

    Wow! Hubby's lunch steak burrito was as big as a meat loaf!! He said it was delicious. My two chicken fajitas were almost as big as the aforementioned burrito. Chicken was tender and the plate has refried beans, lettuce, guacamole and sour cream. Needless to say we took half of our entrees home! We still can't decide which sauce is better with the tortilla chips.

    Food tasted old and most definitely reheated. The soda taste like it was in a glass that was not rinsed properly.

    I'm sorry. I really want them to do well and succeed but hear me out: CONS: We ordered beef nachos…read more Completely unseasoned beef, and tons of lettuce, so much that the wet lettuce made the chips soggy in a matter of minutes. Secondly, you couldn't see the cheese. Also, the tomatoes they put on the nacho was just ONE SLICE of a tomato, not cut up tomatoes, but a single slice of a tomato. When you order nachos you expect a lot of cheese and the thrill of a pull and seeing cheese. No salsa on it, no onions, nothing; just cheap cheese and ground beef. Absolutely disappointing. The enchiladas I had had a sauce that you can absolutely tell came from a can. I'm sorry, I really am. But how can nachos be disappointing? At least put them onto the oven and broil them so the chips are crunchy. I hope they succeed, I really do. But IVE NEVER not finished enchiladas or nachos; I had to stop eating them. PRO: the atmosphere is good and staff were VERY friendly. But please, please, the food was not good. I hope they learn to make nachos better and improve their sauce and enchiladas. I definitely looked like it was microwaved. I wish them luck, truly.

    I've been here about six times the past year. I am here most of the year rehabbing my future home…read morenear Cambridge. I always come here for a couple of cold beers, great food and a nice staff. I always get the Texas Fajitas but today I tried the Carnitas. Delicious. The chips are always fresh.

    I love Mexican food and avoid chain restaurants. I was excited to check this place out when I read…read morethe reviews online, My husband and I were traveling through the area and decided to stop. At first glance my husband just wanted to keep on driving. Myself I am always open for an adventure and have found some of the best Mexican food in other hole in the wall places like this. There is no indoor seating, there is a small outdoor eating area or takeout only. You wouldn't know they served food from driving by or upon entering the facility. Inside is a store where they sell many Mexican foods, beverages and produce. The inside was not very clean and a bit run down, the outside eating area was littered with cigarette butts and soda cap lids, no trash receptacle other than a thin garbage bag tied to a post that was over flowing. On a good note, the cashier was very pleasant. Our food came out timely , I was disappointed with the food, very bland, the rice was chopped up and my carnitas dry. My husband only ate 1/2 of his Burrito. Wish the food was better and the place was cleaner as we travel down that way often....

    A random find on my way home from the Eastern Shore but glad I stumbled across it!…read more It's a small market/corner store that sells a lot of Hispanic goods. At the counter, you can order food (which is what I came for)! They make it fresh to order. I had an al pastor taco and a tamale. Along with a bottle of water, my total was around $3.75. Can't beat it! Everything tasted great; I ate in my car before continuing on my way. I used to live in LA and was used to super authentic Mexican food. Hard to find in the Hampton Roads/Eastern Shore area. That being said, this was one of the better places that I've tried; tasted like authentic street fare. The taco even had radishes, which was an authentic touch you just don't see around here; made me super happy. Def will stop again if passing through the area.
