Great service and great food. Ask for the spicy sauce. 🤤🤤🤤 if you can handle heat
All the mezcal cocktails are bomb! We love going for Sunday brunch and get the chilaquiles, birria, or the chorizo-papa burritos.

Hands down the best bartenders in Chula. Best back bar in Chula as well. Nobody is doing what they do in South Bay. They don’t sell any crap spirits with additives and what not. This isn’t the place to get a jack and coke or a vodka redbull, this is the place to try great Mexican spirits and cocktails. If you aren’t into that, just go any other bar in Chula for mixed drinks, simple

Julio suggested his personal drink and the description of how in detail of knowing the product is to the T 😉
The Restaurant has plenty of parking and no excuse to enjoy a beautiful day with considerable hospitality!

My cousins and I stopped by this bar for the first time, and unfortunately, the experience was awful from the start. Both bartenders gave off a really rude vibe — the male bartender even told us to “back up” for no reason when we had just walked in. We were in a great mood before coming, but that changed quickly.
The female bartender wasn’t any better; every drink we asked for (even something simple like a Jack and Coke) was met with, “No, we don’t have that,” with a bad attitude. It honestly felt like they just didn’t want us there.
We ended up leaving and going to the bar next door, where the atmosphere was completely different — friendly, welcoming, and fun. The contrast really showed how bad the service was here. The place wasn’t even that busy for them to be in such a bad mood . Definitely not a place I’d go back to or recommend.

I thought I had reviewed this place awhile ago. Great local place, friendly staff, owners are nice. Good food, good drinks with a fun rotating cocktail special or specials to add some extra flair. Great beer selection.

Super rude staff working today. We waited for nearly 5 minutes to be acknowledged while the waitress cleaned tables and the bar tender pretended not to see us. There was hardly anyone in there. Bar tender made eye contact and elected not to say anything. Waitress with see through leggings did the same. We left and ate elsewhere

We had a couple of beers here and ordered some food. The carnitas were pretty good and the tacos were loaded. The cabeza was soft and cooked slow. Their red hot salsa packs a half decent punch. Bar tender was sociable and gave us a couple of tips when visiting Tijuana. His tequila recos were also very good. I would definitely go again.

I've been to La Nacional a few times and everytime I go I have a great time! Good ambiance, good energy, and great staff! Vasni, the bar tender, makes great drinks and is always so quick with it.
