La Mex is a Mexican restaurant that offers a lively dining experience. The food reviews are mixed, with some dishes receiving praise and others falling short on flavor. The Fajitas are described as having "fat little chunks of meat" rather than the typical thin slices, while the garlic shrimp in the appetizer is praised as the best-tasting item. The Carne Tampequeña and Diablo burrito are also well-received. However, the salsa, chips, and some of the other entrees are reported to be lacking in flavor.
The service is described as efficient, with a waitress who is quick to refill drinks, but may not check in on customers as often as desired. The atmosphere is lively, with loud music and a busy Friday night vibe. The women's bathroom is noted as needing some attention, with a messy and disheveled appearance.
Overall, La Mex offers a mixed dining experience, with some standout dishes and a vibrant atmosphere, but also some room for improvement in terms of food quality and attention to detail in the restaurant's upkeep.
