Small house Margarita 2x1

Food was flavorful and everything was fresh. Customer service was amazing from the moment we walked in until the moment we left. Restaurant is decorated nicely and very clean,

Best Guacamole!

Hands down the best guacamole around. Very impressed. Our food took a while to come out and it was room temperature. It was decently flavored. I think it would have been great if it was fresh and hot. The service was just that service. No great but not bad. The restaurant was clean and everyone was wearing masks.

The bar area

Came here for lunch with my coworkers. I got the shrimp chimichuanga which was good. The ambience is nice, it's got a pretty open plan with half walls dividing some areas that look like southwest mission walls. There is a bar, but I didn't drink anything so I'll leave that for other reviews. The service was good and fast which was good for our lunch outing from work. I would come back again.

Overpriced sh!tty Tex-mex. The service was AWEFUL. The food was even worse...a bland excuse for Mexican. 10 out of 10 do NOT recommend. We were given plastic cutlery, which included one flimsy napkin. No one ever cleared the empty drinks or plates from our table.

Nasty

Staff is very friendly,, but the food was weak. I had the tamales. They were pretty rough. The sauce tasted like Chef Boyardee.

Horrible service! Staff was lazy and inconsiderate. Drinks were good and so was my meal. But I don't believe I will be going back.

It was OK. Won't make a special trip to eat here. Small margaritas, lunch menu overpriced, tasted ok.

Another great find for Mexican food!…read more Ya'll. I have been searching high and low for good Mexican in this city and was starting to think it just didn't exist. I know most people are going to be like, "but Angie, you have the best food on the planet in Lafayette. Why in the world are you looking for Mexican?" Well, while you're not wrong about the best food on the planet part, ya girl likes variety. La Pagua has been recommended to me before and I tried it once about a two years ago and found it to be just mediocre. I decided to give it another try not too long ago and was so impressed I ate there twice that week. Their tacos are all pretty good but the barbacoa is the BEST. I recommend trying out a few just to see which one you like because they are really affordable and all delicious. But I am going to bet you'll love the barbacoa one the most. I judge all Mexican places on their burrito and their chicken and shrimp passed my test with flying colors. I've dined in once and the atmosphere is upbeat and fun. Go give La Pagua a try!

The service was amazing! The place smelt like strong cleaner (reminded me of Fabuloso in bathrooms)…read morewhich is a good thing meaning the place is cleaned BUT offensive when expecting to walk into a room with the aroma of good food cooking! The food is ok. Salsa is good but taco meat is a texture that I personally think of Taco Bell. The place needs a makeover or background music to up the ambiance. Not sure if I'll return ‍

Magnifico. Beautiful…read more Colorful. Get the real deal. Get a tall boy Coke without all that high corn fructose syrup, like that real sugar. Get 4 tacos for $5. Get lengua tacos & learn the native tongue. Everything is tasty. I love the pickled carrots & jalapeños. To me it's more authentic for the price point. Similar chain establishments will cover everything with nacho cheese & call it TexMex, this isn't that truck. And we are glad.

(From October, 2025)…read more Taco Tuesday in early October in Lafayette means yelping around which brings me to this truck. Right off of the Ambassador Caffery Parkway, it used to be called the El Taqueria Louisiana Dollar #2 or something like that. I guess it's now renamed as El Cazador. Inflation unfortunately brings the pricing up pretty high which is $3.50 per taco. I used to read that it was 4 tacos for $5 back before COVID effed everything up. I had reservations about if I wanted to order here but the smells had me hooked so I did 5 tacos mix of barbacoa, cabeza, carnitas x2, and asada. The lady in the truck was super sweet and the food got to me quickly. Upon unwrapping and eating everything in the hotel room, I like how everything was packaged and they threw in grilled onions, and a serrano pepper for spice. The tacos tasted good; juicy meats with onions/cilantro accompanying it. While I'm not thrilled about the price charged, I can't complain too much as the taste is there. Cash only FYI. Maybe there is somewhat of a decent taco game in Louisiana!
