La Mexicana Taqueria - a disappointment

When I walked into La Mexicana Taqueria, I was very excited at the prospect of trying their tacos.  The restaurant just seemed like it was going to have something delicious for me.  Unfortunately, my taco senses were way off.

I ordered a carne asada taco and a carnitas taco with grilled jalepenos on the side.  At $2.25 each I was expecting decent sized tacos filled with meat.  What showed up at the table were, AT BEST, $.99 tacos filled with what I'll generously refer to meat.  In actuality, the tiny shards served up in the tacos resembled chunks of shoe leather more than they did meat and they tasted about as good as they looked.  My grilled jalepenos were nowhere to be seen (despite showing up on my bill) and the selection of salsas offered up were bland and unappetizing. 

So, all I can say is that La Mexicana Taqueria was a disappointment.  Don't bother assaulting your taste buds with the trash they serve.

  2. Really folks, don't bother with this place. There are probably 10 better places within a couple miles. Mexicana Taqueria should just close up shop and start serving in Casa Bonita!
