Birria tacos with other tacos and sides
Victor E.

This is my go to spot for tacos and other great Mexican food. The Birria tacos are delicious along with their trompo tacos and the chicharron with guacamole is a must as well. The staff is always really friendly.

Le doy 2 estrellas porque los tamales me decepcionaron, la verdad fui muy emocionada a comprar mi docena de tamales pero les doy un 6 los tamales están duros la masa aparte están secos,muy grasoso tal vez el guiso pero no me gustaron compré de puerco y pollo siento que la masa no la preparan solo la compran de la tortillería y así los hacen esa impresión me dio, porque la masa estaba demasiado seca, no volvería a comprar de nuevo a menos que cambien su masa y le añadan más sabor, pensé que al llamarse Nuevo León Iván a estar deliciosos pero nada que ver El lugar está muy bonito muy limpio y agradable pero La persona que nos atendió ese día no era nada amistoso muy serio y no me pareció amable le doy un 5

4 carne asada on flour tortillas.

My go-to HAS to be the carne asada on flour tortillas. The amount of food you get along with the quality of everything is more than your moneys worth. The sauce bar is really nice and clean. The service is extremely kind and welcoming along with funny workers. Overall 10/10 tacos with very nice ambiance.

Was finally able to check this place out there spicy pork was so delicious it had so much flavor. There chicken with verde was decent just didn't have the heat I desired. Oh man there Tamal borracho did not disappoint it's a huge tamal with Serranos so it's super spicy and a mix of tamale meats it's so filling!! There concept is simple but hot and fresh tamales by half or full dozen or buy frozen tamales which are cheaper and just as good! Definitely will be returning to try more out on there menu. Y'all check 'em out next time your needing your tamale fix!

The first time we went to La Sombra Cantina we thought we were going back to Pineda's. We were…read moresurprised at the change and hoped it was at least as good as Pineda's. We were very pleasantly surprised. It's even better in my opinion. The people are very warm and friendly. The food is really delicious. I love that they bring not only good salsa with their fresh hot chips, but also a tomatillo sauce and a black bean dip. We've now eaten there several times. The taco meat has a nicely charred flavor. The tamales were very good. (I'm picky about my tamales. I've tried their ranchero sauce, chili con carne, and sour cream sauce. None of them disappoint. Their rice isn't dry like it is at many other Tex-Mex places. And their $5.00 all day frozen margaritas are worth it. We usually go for the lunch specials that run until 4:00. They don't have mole on the menu, yet. I'm looking forward to their future specials. In this day and age where it's hard to keep a restaurant open, I really hope this one survives. It's not fancy, but the food and service make it worth it. And I'm a picky person when it comes to spending money on food I don't make myself.

A red salsa which was mild and has some nice acidity from the tomato. Then there was a creamy green salsa that had a nice spice. Then finally my personal favorite a great black bean dip. These paired well with the free chips. My partner ordered the queso birria, great flavor and a great consume. Then I had the poblano enchiladas which was the best dish of night! The poblano sauce was creamy cheesy and delicious. There was a nice spiced shredded chicken super tasty. Overall a fantastic restaurant with great service too !

When I came inside and waited a bit, I finally was able to pick up the order, but the drinks weren't ready. Waited some more for that, and then was able to get the food and go home. Once actually eating the food, we were all please with what we got. Food was still warm when we picked it up and it was delicious. Despite the waiting that was involved, I'd still go back:)

It has gray interior, tables, and chairs. We ordered strawberry margaritas while waiting for 2 more people to join our party. The first margarita was not bad. It had decent strawberry flavor. After the 2 joined our party, it took quite a while to get the servers' attention to order more drinks and food. I ordered another strawberry margarita and the Fernando Tex-Mex platter. This margarita had so much strawberry mixer in it compared to the first one. It made it too sweet. The Fernando had plenty of food, and the beef enchilada was my favorite. The meat could have been seasoned more to give it more flavor.

Incredible tacos at a reasonable price, especially considering how much meat they put on these…read moretacos! Every order is served on a little tray with chopped onion and cilantro on the side along with a little cup of charro beans. I've had the trompo (al pastor), barbacoa, and carne asada, and they were all incredible and VERY generous on the meat. Elote was decent and (as a fun fact) they have a self serve sauce and cheeto/takis dust area that you can top it off with. The restaurant is directly connected to a dessert shop with an expansive dessert menu and freezers full of $1.50 paletas (I suggest the rice flavor - kind of like a horchata on a stick).

I would probably give this place 3.5 stars, since I did enjoy some of the items we tried but didn't…read morelove other items that much. My husband and I visited for dinner on a Friday night and it was pretty packed! There was no line to order at the counter, but many of the tables were already taken (though we did manage to get a table for the two of us). We tried a variety of items on the extensive menu, and my favorites were definitely the trompo tacos and the quesabirria tacos! The carne asada taco was good but I personally always prefer trompo / al pastor, and the volcanes was interesting to try. Unfortunately, the chicken taco was very bland and flavorless. Furthermore, the other thing that makes me hesitate to return is the fact that there was quite a bit of fat on the meat in the tacos, which made it more difficult to fully enjoy.

20 people-Friday night-6:30…read more We had a reservation and our long table was ready when we got there. We only had 1 waitress, but she was great even with large group. Chips were thick and crispy . The salsa was spicy. The queso was thick and flavorful. They have a full bar. The menu does list specials. The mojito was light and refreshing. The rhumchata martini was sweet. Food came out quickly and was hot. Everyone liked what they got. Mine was carne adada snd and it came on iron plate. It was tender and flavorful. Restrooms were clean. They offer covered patio seating. Several large TVs for viewing games. Wheelchair accessible.

At no point did my server tell me that there would be an additional $2 charge for the substitution. Had he told me, I simply would have kept the rice and beans that came with the meal. When the bill arrived, I noticed the extra $2 charge and questioned it. Instead of simply acknowledging that the additional charge had not been communicated to me when I ordered, the server sent the manager over. The manager ultimately refunded the $2, but his attitude was unnecessarily rude. He told me that the menu explains there is a $2 upcharge. Regardless of what may be printed on the menu, when a customer specifically requests a substitution that carries an additional charge, I believe the server should clearly mention it when taking the order. This wasn't really about $2. It was about communication and customer service. A simple, "Just so you know, there's a $2 upcharge for the vegetables," would have prevented the entire issue. Instead, I left feeling like my concern was treated as an inconvenience rather than a reasonable customer-service issue. I will not be returning because of how I was treated.
