Tacos were dry, missing salt. I will say the sizes were good especially since each taco is $4. The flavor was there it was just missing a little more, they didn't even ask what salsa I wanted and just gave me red salsa. It's also really hot in there so it's more of a grab and go kind of thing. The service was okay.

Agonizing over Sunday dinner and paralyzed by indecision while scrolling through Yelp and Google Maps, I stumbled upon Taqueria La Doña. The small storefront, spartan bar counter seating, simple menu, and photos of tacos that looked like they came straight out of East LA sold me instantly. At the counter, I ordered four tacos ($4 each): head, tongue, stomach, and crispy pork. I paid there and was told it would take about 10 minutes. Moments later, the kitchen erupted with loud chopping noises - clearly, those 10 minutes were being used to freshly prep my order. The tacos arrived double-shelled and topped with meat, diced onions, and cilantro. On the side were lime wedges and slices of small radish. The shells were thin yet fluffy, soft, and warm. Each taco was portioned just right - enough meat to fill them generously without spilling everywhere (okay, maybe one rogue piece of onion), but otherwise packed to the brim. The head and tongue were extra juicy and tender, the stomach had a pleasantly springy texture, and the crispy pork lived up to its name - extremely crispy. All the meats were simply seasoned with a bit of salt, letting the textures and freshness shine. Extra sauces are available at the table. Not many places around here come close to what you'd find in DTLA or San Diego. But Taqueria La Doña serves tacos that wouldn't feel out of place being handed out of a truck on Olympic or University Ave. Sure, it's cheaper back home, but I'm happy to pay $4 per taco when I'm not flying to LA for the holidays.

Absolutely fantastic tacos. Exactly what I've been looking for. Service was fast, tacos and tamales were out of this world.

I first saw the restaurant while driving by one day and so added it to my list to check out. Today I had the chance to stop in for lunch. I stuck to the beef tacos and ordered: 1 birria, 2 cabeza and 1 lengua. Everything came out with cilantro and onions (you can customize your toppings if this isn't your style). I also got the Jamaica agua Fresca. Everything here from the service to the food is excellent. The seating is bar style and so it feels a bit communal which is always nice. Undoubtedly the best beef tacos in downtown Nashua.

Their house made red and green sauce.

The most authentic tacos you'll find in Nashua, front counter woman is very nice and food comes out in no time. Don't sleep on this place

For a quick weekday lunch I decided to try out La Carreta (convenient when driving Southbound on DW…read moreHighway on the way to shopping in South Nashua). At 2pm the restaurant seemed lively even at less than half capacity. I got seated, placed an order, and received my food within 5 minutes. The complimentary chips and salsa seemed decent. Light, not too oily or salty, but held up to the salsa. The salsa itself had a hint of herbal. A bit sweet for my taste but that's a personal nitpick. My order was the lunch special version of the Pollo Sinaloa ($14.99) - half a chicken breast marinated and grilled with zucchini, mushrooms, onion, and peppers served with rice, beans, and 2 flour tortillas. The chicken was in the form of a thin cutlet and a bit small. However, the overall portion proved quite filling. Rice, beans, and grilled vegetables all tasted like, well, rice beans and grilled vegetables. WYSIWYG Service was cordial and pleasant. My server had some extra energy and pep that seemed genuine. Overall, this was the prototypical Mexican-American restaurant experience. Food aside, it had the decorative plates, stylized interior, and Spanish music playing.

This was the worst food I have ever had. For the first time in my life I returned the food and told…read morethem I would not be paying for this. Started the night off with a margarita and nachos and should have know then to stop at that. Took one bite of our main dinners and we both we so gross out! We spoke with the waiter he was rude and didn't even try to help fix the issue. Not that we would have taken anything else from this restaurant. We just wanted the dinners off our bill and to leave as fast as possible. Will never go back so gross.

I think it's important to share feedback not only for other diners but also for restaurants owners/…read moreoperators. While it has been awhile since I last wrote a review I thought this dining experience warranted one. Experience: - The Square is super cute and offers ample parking. -The bathrooms smell awful, from the moment you walk in the hallway there is clearly a plumbing issue present which has been present our last two visits.. rough way to start your experience at a restaurant. -The menu, no issue with prices going up but using white out over the prices, hand writing new prices which is barely legible is tacky to say the least. -Following our order the food came out nearly immediately and it was clear the guacamole to our main dishes are made in advance and not done well. - To the mgmt team -3% surcharge to use a credit card is a joke, add it to your price or offer a cash/ debit discount not the other way around. On the food side: -The beans were prepared with way too much salt.. inedible was the way we would describe it.. -Mexican rice was awful. No sign of a single vegetable or herbs... Mexican rice should and can be made flavorful with ease by any chef. -The guacamole was clearly made well in advance and brown... I'm sorry, happy to pay a premium for guac at a restaurant but this product shows no effort to ensure freshness. -Main dishes , both submerged in oil and our chicken was served nearly cold... fajitas served lukewarm and lacking flavor which seems hard to do but that was our experience. - Drinks - the unsweetened ice tea was served carbonated for some odd reason from their soda machine... not drinkable sorry. Service: - servers were kind and attentive, checking in routinely for anything we may need which was deeply appreciated. After a few shots at this restaurant we both agreed there is a reason the restaurant is empty, the food , the ambiance, the overall experience for our hard earned money. TLDR for the restaurant - take pride in your food, take a fresh look at the diners experience, Mexican food should be vibrant, flavorful and delicious, this is by far the worst finished product we have ever had in NH and simply put not worth a visit unless something drastic changes.
