“I had such a great experience at La Esquinita and will absolutely be back. We went for Taco Tuesday and the deal is hard to beat—2 tacos (your choice), a side, and a drink for $12.99. I got the poblano and yam tacos, half rice/half whole beans, and a horchata (that I gave to my husband) and my husband ordered a chicken burrito. Even after leaving a 20% tip, it came out to under $20 per person, which feels like an incredible value for the quality. The staff was super friendly, and while the space is tiny, we were able to grab a cozy seat at the window which made it even more enjoyable. The food was fresh and really flavorful. One standout for me was their red salsa—it actually had some heat without that overpowering vinegar taste you sometimes get, which I really appreciated. Highly recommend checking them out, especially on Taco Tuesday. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to again and again.”
