    Delicious Cadillac margaritas
    Tamara R.

    We love the food here! It's always great and we look forward to enjoying the margaritas, especially on Cinco de Mayo. So delicious. The service is as expected...excellent...and it's so nice to spend time in such a welcoming environment.

    Short and sweet- I much much much prefer this location rather than their other much smaller place. And not only is the size a big difference but the food seems to have gotten better. We visited their old location in the strip mall once and did not like it. It was small, uninviting, and the food was not the best food in the area and didn't hold a candle to a lot of other places. We never figured out how they kept busy. But not that they have moved into Candicci's old location things have really turned around. Glad we gave this place a second chance, the food seemed to have been a lot better on our second go around. The staff is friendly enough. The one negative I will give, and I deducted one star for it, was that with all the renovations they did, all the work they put into changing this drab, gross, nasty restaurant into what it is, they turned it into the most cacophonous place around. It is LOUD in there. I'm not a big complainer but it was hard to miss that this place is one big, open room with a lot of people talking at once, music going, and everything echoing all over the place. It's not a good place if you are looking for an intimate experience. Compleeeeeeete 180 degrees from the old location. But go, give it a try, and let me know what you think!

    I've been waiting to try this place since they reopened at their new location. Plenty of parking and space inside the resturant. Came during lunch on a week day and it was steady. The hostess was very nice and sat us immediately. Our server was friendly and very attentive. Flight margaritas were delicious. Food taste great as well. The only thing I wish was different was the fried ice cream. The dessert tortilla wasn't a crispy but still pretty good. Ordered churro's to go and they were good. I'd definitely return in the near future.

    Love the new spot! Lots of tables, proper bar, patio dining options when the weather is better. Staffed well for a Monday lunch period, and they were busy. Server was very friendly and attentive. What I ordered: - chips and salsa (4/5): fresh, warm and crispy chips. Salsa is mild and fresh. - chorizo with potatoes and eggs (4/5): mild chorizo mixed well with eggs and potatoes. Served with creamy refried beans and Mexican rice. I think the chorizo could use some cheese. Definitely a go to spot for Mexican!

    One steak and one pork sopes
    Ashley Q.

    Went in on a Saturday afternoon for lunch. It was busy but we were seated right away. They have an extensive tequila collection and full bar. Service was great, nice chips and salsa. Had the sopes, one with steak and one with pork. The steak was tough and had no spice, the pork was delicious and had nice spice but the corn "cake" was just a dense corn up that I skipped after a few bites. Would definitely try other options. But the sopes weren't my fave. My friend had the burrito lunch and said the ground beef was very flavorful and yummy. The beans and rice were standard but I enjoyed them.

    This is the new location in Ballwin with a lot of room in the main seating area. Even on a Monday night, this place is completely packed with almost no table available. Many many selections on the menu. I had hard time to choose what I wanted. I ended up with shrimp and fish tacos and my friend had the shrimp and chicken bowl. She also ordered a fresh squeezed citrus margaritas and she loved it! Service is great! Chips and salsa are home made. Price is more in the mid range. The only thing I must say is that their decorations do not have Mexican "flavors". It is somewhat plain. Will come back with some friends for happy hour.

    California Burrito
    Joe L.

    Dined here with friends last night and there were quite a few people in the restaurant around 5 o'clock. The service was excellent and the food here is very reasonably priced and tastes green great. I ordered the California burrito and substituted white cheese sauce instead of the cheddar cheese and it was very good. The Draft beer that I got for $12 was huge (my guess 32 oz) and ice cold.

    Chilaquiles (2/6/25)
    Michelle L.

    I had been to Mi Lupita lots of times at their previous location and today, 2/6/25, was my first time at the new Holloway Rd location. It was mobbed! We had a party of six and waited at least 30 minutes for a table around 6pm on a Thursday. It took me over 5 minutes to order drinks at the bar. I ordered Chilaquiles. So the tortilla chips are simmered in red sauce then fried with eggs and topped with onions and cheese. Love it! My dinner dates ordered arroz con pollo, nachos, vegetable tacos, and the tortilla soup and tacos combo. We all enjoyed our meals and the service is friendly. Lots going on here! We'll be back!

    Steak cactus tacos / double rice
    Matt J.

    If you want Mexican food this is the place to go. Anything you order here is incredible. I have been a customer of theirs for over 8+ years. Their new location accommodates for 60 plus more people. Only down fault is the parking is tight. If you plan on going on a Friday or Saturday night expect at least a 30+ min wait for a party of four. I started my night with their famous Cadillac Margarita. David is one of the best bartenders around!! Once we were sat my party started with the trio dips. This included Quac, Queso, and Mango pico de gallo . My go to meal is the steak cactus tacos. However if you want something greasy and cheesy their Letys tacos are to die for. Along with the quesabirria tacos. I am a loyal customer that will continue to come back to an unbelievable staff!

    LOVE this place. Finally found a Mexican restaurant with some authentic dishes on the menu. The staff is extremely friendly and always on top of it. Such a huge variety of good tequilas as well.

    Welcome to Mission...I mean Session Taco! Some oldies on the menu and some newbies on the menu!…read moreThis visit for lunch, tried a few newbies and they did not disappoint! Crab taquitos are creamy and rich. The crisp outside provides a good contrast to the filling. Very tasty! The chicken fajita quesadilla is bit more fajita than chicken, but seasoned well and balanced with the cheese. The Big A** Nacho, I swapped chicken for the Chorizo. It reminds you of a thin and crispy crust pizza. It's quite good with the beans, cheese, sour cream drizzle. It's big enough for 2 to share or 1 person to eat 1/2 and take some home. Session does a good job turning the orders around quickly for the lunch hour, but you might need 1hr and 15 min to safe. Enjoy!

    I visited with some coworkers who raved about the Mission/Session Taco experience. Sadly, I can't…read moresay I felt the same way when I left. We started with an assortment of chips and dip. The guacamole was the only decent option, in my opinion - the queso had no flavor and tasted like straight Velveeta, while the salsa was very watery and tasted of straight cilantro (and I normally like cilantro, but this was... a lot) Tacos came out and they were cold. The flavors themselves weren't bad, but it was nothing spectacular. The street corn was also decent, but not great. It was *very* charred. I didn't try any of the drinks, but those in our group agreed the margaritas weren't good. I'm not sure I'll be back. It's too bad, because it sounds like prior to the rebrand, this was a great place.
