The food was not so good. Best part of my chicken enchilada plate was the rice and beans....... Also the plate was 17 dollars for ONE enchilada. Service sucks, had to actually get up and ask for water myself. I don't recommend coming here unless you want to be overcharged for good rice and beans.

Service was quick and friendly. Portion sizes were good. Warm chips and sadlyaverage tasting pico de Gallo arrived quickly. I ordered the combo plate (chicken enchilada, ground beef taco and chicken relleno) and my guest ordered Enchillads Mexicana (corn tortillas filled with chicken) with red enchillada sauce. Staff was friendly but the main flavor of the meal - the enchillada sauce - left us disappointed. Cozy little spot with just few booths and tables inside and a handful outside. Might be fine for a dining spot if you're within walking distance, but since the Caltrain station is easily walkable from here, I'd suggest you hop on board and find another option if Mexican food is what you're craving.

Places like La Hacienda used to be all over the Bay Area, now this restaurant is the last of the few great family ran restaurants that serve up really good Mexican food. A true gem in the bay.

Service was friendly. I ordered takeout. Was not provided with utensils or napkins until I asked for them. Thankfully, I remembered to double check. They had already tied a knot in my to go bag. I ordered two chicken enchiladas. The chicken was hard to chew like maybe it was way over boiled. The sauce was sweet. Not my favorite.

Been getting take out from La Hacienda for years, decades actually. The food is tasty and reasonably priced. The service is always spot on. Mosey on down there if you have a hankering for Mexican food.

Their spicy chip dipping salsa is the real deal.

I really love their chips and salsa so I decided to go pick some up to bring home even though I said I would not patronize their business anymore because of the last bad experience. Now I am definitely done. They charge $5.50 for an extremely small bag of chips and two very small salsas. I had to ask if that's all you get for that price! She did give me another bag of chips and only one more small salsa. It's just not worth it.

We love La Hacienda. Mario and Amelia put their heart and soul into putting authentic Mexican food onto your table. They'll greet you with a smile and take great care of you. Pro-tip: Love extra spicy salsa? Ask Mario for the good stuff.

As authentic as the Mexican food we have had in Mexico. We ordered the garlic shrimp and the sangria. Both were top notch. The chips and salsa, tortilla, meatball soup were all delectable. The patio area is gorgeous. Interiors are humble with Mexican artifacts. There is a free book station at the entrance.

Been going here for decades, it's run by a different family but same great results My favorites are the number 1 but with a cheese enchilada or the chimichangas My family, friends and neighbors enjoy it too
