My boyfriend got the 4 tacos (lengua, pollo, bistec, and pork). The food was so good although the oil my tacos were cooked in tasted a little old. I masked that taste once I dipped them in the consomé, drizzled them in the salsa, and spritzed them with lime. That's the reason for the deduction in stars. My horchata was also really good. Boyfriend liked his sweet tea- said it tasted homemade. I also appreciated the cleanliness of the restaurant and the Univision playing on the TV. I would definitely make the trip to Kenner to eat at Taqueria Mi Rancho again.

The colors, the decor, the ambiance and the music. It is definitely a place meant for photos. Beyond that, the food was great. The table shared several orders of the Guacamole and the Queso. Both were excellent. The meal also came with table chips and salsa x3. All 3 included salsas were delicious and one of them was quite spicy! For my entree, I had the Birria Tacos. The presentation on this was spectacular, and the entree came with three tacos, the consume, beans, rice and onions. They were truly delicious. I almost forgot the drinks. I had two guava margaritas, and they were an excellent accompaniment. Overall, a great experience. As other people have mentioned, the parking is very limited. After we illegally parked in the back of the next door shopping center, they told us that we could park across the street. I wish that there was a sign in the parking lot at the restaurant indicating that, so that we knew that ahead of time. Luckily, we were not towed from the shopping center; however, if you were visiting for the first time -- you would not have known that.

I ordered a simple fried fish and a queso for an appetizer. The queso was simple and just ok. The salsas were not spiced at all and were very watery. The dish came and it was extremely greasy, I get that it's a fried dish but at least let some of the oil drip off before plating. I used several napkins to try to take off some of the excess oil. The fries were very soggy and not seasoned at all and the fish looked appetizing but when I bit into it, it had no flavor whatsoever. The texture was there and it looked like it was going to taste good but it fell extremely short in taste. On the flip side, the beans were overly seasoned. The rice was also lacking salt. I felt bad when the waitress came to ask me how everything was. I had to tell her that they completely forgot to season my food. She apologized and I said it wasn't her fault and asked for my check and told her she might want to tell the chef to not forget the salt next time. Overall the place was nice for group gatherings, although the music was a little loud, they also had several TVs playing different things. Maybe I selected the wrong dish but I have to say I won't be going here again when I want a good Mexican seafood. I'll have to check out their other dishes and hope they're much better. For now they won't be added on my places to frequent during my work trips.

As soon as I was seated, I was immediately greeted by a server with fresh salsa and chips at my table. The menu has so many things to choose from to include tacos, the grill, burritos, enchiladas, quesadillas, chimichangas, appetizers, as well as soups and salads. They also have lots of margaritas to choose from to include margarita pours and margarita Flights and specialty drinks as well. Beer and wine also available as well as other liquors to choose from. I started with a side of guac and a margarita flight both were very tasty-guacamole was fresh. I also had the ceviche which was also very fresh and very tasty. This is the perfect place to have a good time and drink with friends. The margaritas do not disappoint as they were amazing! I think I'm ready for my flight.

A few years ago I had been to La Tia in Metairie, and it left a serious impression. What stuck with me most were the craft cocktails...creative, clever, and a little bit mischievous. I still remember one in particular: a Mexican-inspired cocktail with mezcal and beet juice that somehow managed to taste like summer decided to take a vacation south of the border. It was the kind of drink that makes you pause mid-sip and say, "Okay... whoever thought of this deserves a raise." Somehow the place drifted off my radar over time. But when the craving for Mexican food hit, it popped right back into my head. I was excited to bring my son and daughter-in-law since they had never been. Unfortunately... the reunion didn't exactly go as planned. Two things hit me immediately while looking over the menu. First: the craft cocktails were gone. Not "different." Not "updated." Just... gone. Replaced with the same drinks you see in every other Mexican restaurant. Second: the prices nearly made me spit out the water I hadn't even ordered yet. $6 for a Corona. $18 for a basic burrito with fries. $10 for a kids plate over chicken tenders and some fries. And not the old La Tia burritos either...the ones I remembered piled high with rich molé, bright verde sauces, and layers of flavor that made you wonder if you should be taking notes. Nope. Now we're talking about a plain flour tortilla with some ground meat inside, no sauce, and a side of what looked suspiciously like freezer-aisle French fries. For eighteen dollars. My daughter-in-law ordered the fajitas, and honestly... they were rough. Thin strips of overcooked meat that looked like they had taken a brief vacation in a plastic bag before hitting the grill...served on a plate. Lately I've gotten into the habit of pulling up Yelp photos to compare dishes from past years, and I did exactly that. I found a photo of the same fajitas from about three years ago...big, juicy steak pieces, sizzling on cast iron and full of life. What we got looked like it came from a completely different restaurant. To be fair, my shrimp tacos were actually pretty good. Nicely cooked shrimp, decent flavor, and probably the lone bright spot of the night. But overall, it felt like the La Tia I loved had quietly packed up and left the building. The elevated Mexican food? Gone. The rich sauces? Gone. The inventive cocktails that made the bar worth sitting at? Also gone. In their place: food that feels pulled from a bag... at prices that feel pulled from a luxury menu. It's a tough thing when a restaurant you once loved loses its spark. But sadly, this visit felt less like a reunion and more like running into an old friend who has completely changed--and not for the better. As much as I hate to say it, I don't see myself returning to La Tia anytime soon. Turns out the only thing that stayed spicy... was the price tag.

Decided to sit at the bar so I can get in and out quickly and have a little margarita. My server/bartender wasn't very attentive at all. I had to get his attention a few times for service because he was in his whole the whole time. I ordered a margarita that to me was okay, but it tasted much better after I asked to have a flavor added to it. I think it was hibiscus. I only got 2 tacos. The fish and shrimp. The fish was a little bland for my taste but the sauces and add ons saved it. This was an okay experience, I'm writing this place off. I plan to give them another shot and try some of their other menu items.
