What an incredible experience…read more This restaurant gives meaning to the saying, "never judge a book from its cover." The reason I say that is, it's unassuming from the outside. Connected to an auto repair shop to the left and liquor store on the right. Arriving, we saw only a handful of tables that weren't cleared off from past customers. We waited by the front door not realizing you order from the window which is hidden in the corner. We were greeted by a friendly young lady and after we placed in our orders, we sat ourselves and waited for our food to arrive. The first thing to arrive was the guacamole with chips. We found the guacamole to be less chunky as we'd like, but nevertheless it was pleasant. The chips were overly salted in our opinion but did not take away from the dish. Then came the al pastor tacos. These were absolutely delicious. The pork was wonderfully marinated, and the toppings added to the entire taco rather than overpower the pork. We also opted in for the shrimp tacos, which were also quite delicious. Ordering a couple of empanadas, one steak and one al pastor, these were phenomenal. Taking a bite of each, you can identify everything inside these perfectly fried parcels. Very very good. I can confidentially say, this is the best Mexican food I've ever eaten and easily beats any of our Mexican restaurants here in Rochester. But a fair warning to future patrons. Don't expect to walk in and expect a full-service restaurant. Waiting times can be a little longer than expected as well. But the upside is receiving delicious, made-to-order food made with love and care. We'd make the trip to Sodus just to revisit this restaurant.

Upon cashing out the cashier told me the total and I asked is the prices online different instore, this price seems wrong? And she responded, "not always, you have multiple items. Cash or card" and just giggled after. DEFIANTLY made us feel uncomfortable and will no longer looking forward to coming here, the rice is also very overcooked or just been sitting all day I don't think rice should be crunchy. Thanks tho !

Mesa Grande is an Auburn staple. It's one of the few places where I can reliably get a good meal…read morerelatively quickly. You're best going in person, but there is online ordering and pickup available. Just make sure you order well in advance, since there's often a 30-45 min+ wait. (And that's a real ETA, they don't usually have it ready sooner, but at least the good is warm). It seems like business has been a little strained lately with price increases and menu options decreasing (RIP pollo tirado) but I'm happy to keep my money local so I oblige. You have the option to eat in if you choose (no table service). It seems like folks opt for eating there less compared to pre-pandemic times. I like eating on site in the summer since they have a covered outdoor area. It's definitely a great place to visit and certainly better than the chipotle that just came to town! I wish they had a rewards system like chipotle, but I still love them regardless!

Passed by this burrito joint while visiting the finger lakes, and we stopped in for lunch. It was…read morea great choice. The place has a cool vibe; exposed brick and wide plank floors, chalked up menu. We were happily greeted by the staff, and they quickly put our orders together. We got one burrito and two bowls. The staff talked us through the order, putting each one together with the several choices of fixins. It's like that burrito chain (rhymes with Bipotlay), but the staff are cool and happy, and the food looks super fresh. Three meals came to about $35 total, so affordable. Bowls were stacked, and the burrito was big, about the size of a prairie dog. Ish. Taste was great. A little more kick or spice in some of the food would have made it all perfect. (I got mild salsa in my burrito; should have gone with medium or hot). You can't go wrong with this place. The food is good and affordable, the vibe is chill, and the staff is super friendly and happy! We can't wait to come back!

New Mexican restaurant located in the old Outback Steakhouse off Rt 31 in Clay…read more Waitress informed us they just opened last week. Had dinner with my wife, son and his wife. We ordered a Mexican Quesadilla, Quesadilla Al Pastor, #8 Combo ( 1-Chicken Quesadilla, 1-Enchilada, Rice & Beans) and WOW Burrito ( properly named it was HUGE!) Dinners were all excellent and portion size perfect. I loved t he Mexican Quesadilla had a little kick to it and that's what I like! We have a good selection on Mexican cuisine in the area, Rio Grande in Liverpool, San Miguel in Baldwinsville, Azteca in Camillus, Adelita's in Camillus, Elephant and the Dove in Skaneateles. Now you should definitely add La Cocina to the rotation! The only thing missing for the newest Mexican restaurant in the area is signage, it located behind Barnes and Noble on Rt 31 and could be easily missed.

Service - 4/5 - great recs, friendly. Ambiance - 3/5 - nicer downstairs. Overall - 4/5 - the spot to go to for Mexican in Skaneateles. Have had better Mexican before but the food us tasty as hell and the portions will leave you stuffed. My girlfriend couldn't even order an entree after appetizers lol. A ton of tequila options. Definitely order the Birria Pizza, but beware of its size. Service was great, Devin was very sweet and gave great recommendations. We did not feel rushed at all. Inside is fine, nothing really crazy. Great place and one of the Skaneateles staples. Best Dish - Birria Pizza, Lalo Tequila Would Return - Absolutely

We were immediately seated for a late lunch on a Saturday. There was a large staircase to the second level so be aware of accessibility. Our service was off to a slow start but everything was too delicious. We shared the triple dipper (salsa, guac and queso) amongst 5 people, it was plenty to share and they offered to bring more chips. We all got tacos (steak, chicken and carnitas) the other 2 guests ordered chimichangas. Everyone thought their food was delicious. The chimichangas were humongous and could probably feed you for a week The restaurant itself was very clean. It had tons of natural lighting and very trendy decor. It photographs well and has a unique look for a Mexican restaurant
