La Bamba Mexican Restaurant is a true hidden gem in Big Bear! 🌮 This small, hole-in-the-wall spot serves authentic Mexican food that tastes homemade.

The chicken enchiladas were the highlight—tender, moist chicken wrapped in a soft tortilla and topped with a spicy, flavorful enchilada sauce.The rice was a little dry and the beans on the runny side, but both were still tasty.

Overall the meal was satisfying and full of flavor. Prices are lower than most restaurants on the Boulevard, and the service was friendly and fast.

⭐ Overall: 4 stars. I’ll definitely be back to try more dishes next time!

Very authentic, family owned Mexican place. Great burrito's. They make the food themselves, and the owner was very helpful. Great service and atmosphere. Would recommend.

Wow. Super fresh food and incredible service! They make a ton of their food in house and clearly put in effort to make you feel at home.

Omar and his family hail from Mexico city and have brought some high quality Mexican eats to America. Highly, highly, highly recommend.

Good place to charge devices, top up water and alcohol is available.

Small low key atmosphere, but very welcoming and comfortable. Food is all very authentic and reasonably priced. All family ran, which I appreciate. It was Mother’s Day and after we paid our bill they brought out a to go dessert wrapped out for me to celebrate. Will come back and support!

Absolutely loved the food here. The horchata was amazing and so was the cafe de olla. Glad me and my family stopped here to eat and we will be eating here again when we come visit. Forgot to take a picture because I inhaled the wet shrimp burrito I ordered but it was super yummy and very fulfilling
