If you know me, you already know... I don't mess around when it comes to tacos. Every place we go,…read moreI'm out to find the best taco. We ended up at La Posada Mexican Grill in Madras, Oregon... and this is one of those spots that doesn't try to impress you from the outside... but the food absolutely does. I ordered a carne asada taco and their three crispy bean tacos that they're known for. The carne asada had that real flavor to it, not over-seasoned... just simple and done right and the tortillas... perfect. And those crispy bean tacos... I get why they're known for them. Crispy, flavorful, and just the right ratio of filling to topping. And the salsa bar... this is where you can tell if a place is serious. While it looks simple in the photo, it honestly deserves a review all on its own. Multiple salsas, all different, all fresh... pickled carrots (one of my favorites), and of course, radishes. But the kicker... what really put it over the top for me and sold me on coming back someday were the roasted chiles and grilled onions on the side. That alone tells you everything you need to know about how good this place really is. And I'll say this, because it proves itself over and over again... do not judge a Mexican restaurant by the outside of the building. Ever. Some of the best food you'll find is in the most unassuming places... and this is definitely one of them. So authentic.

The service was really good, the price is right and they were fast to bring out my food. I had the…read morecombo platter with the cheese enchilada and the Chile relleno. I loved the Chile relleno but the cheese enchilada didnt cut it, not even melted cheese in there and the enchilada sauce was very salty. The beans and rice were both really good. I would try it again because I'm thinking the saltiness was not a normal thing based on other reviews.

The enchilada itself was delicious! We also loved the fresh chips and salsa. The salsa had a really good smoky chipotle flavor with just the right amount of kick.

The chips seemed like they were made in-house, if not, they were still super fresh and crispy. I got the Carne Asada. Way more than I could eat in one setting. The onions and peppers with the sauce was such a great compliment to the beef. I would definitely get this again. They have indoor and outdoor seating. It was warm and smoky so we opted for indoor. There appears to be some remodel going on in the back but it did not take away from the ambiance at all. The servers were very attentive with refilling beverages, getting our orders, delivering our food and checking if we needed anything else. No pictures this time but very good and I highly recommend them.
