This Mexican food joint has the most extensive menu I have encountered in the Valley to date! Although not the best in the Valley, it gives many other establishments a run for their money! We stopped in for breakfast one morning while in the area and were very pleased with the offerings we sampled. I went for the Spaniard a Spanish-style egg omelet with tasty fresh green chili strips, plenty of cheese, their Ranchero Sauce, along with refried beans and thin sliced baked and sauteed potatoes, and freshly made flour tortillas. Hmmmm good! This is a must visit where you can enjoy a much above average South of the Border-style meal, reasonably priced and an incredible selection.

Hands down the best mexican food I've ever eaten. I haven't been here in about 7 years cause I moved and it still hits the spot. And the customer service is outstanding.

This has been the best mexican place we have eaten at so far! I wish I had taken a picture of the original plate before digging into it. Great size portion, and their tamale were a huge portion!

Was a bit disappointing the quality, service and the place has not improved at all in the last few years. The food is fine for a quick Mexican meal it's just average at best.

La Canasta is my Mothers favorite place. She grew up in the neighborhood & worked there when she was 18 years old. I try to bring her once every few months. The visit never fails it always hits the spot. The food is always fabulous ❤️ We all had green burritos enchilada style.

Tried to place a carry out order by phone. Was left on hold for 15 minutes. I arrived at the restaurant before I was taken off hold. So I had to wait 20 additional minutes to get my order.
