It was late at night.We were hungry been here before and it was great.So we thought we would try it again. But we were disappointed. I don't know if it was because we brought it home. Instead of eating it there. But our dinner was really bad. They gave me an old burnt tamale did not put the chili i asked for. Paid $13 for the smallest ceviche I've eaten with no juice at all. The beans had a cinnamon flavor to them. The Mexican street corn had a good flavor, but lacked structure. The kernels were so small it wasn't really a whole side so I had to order another before I left. It all came to $70. Not bad price if the food was better. And old chips must have been left over from the day. Just bad experience. Don't go at night.

FINAL EDIT ALTHOUGH THIS FIASCO TOOK SEVERAL MONTHS TO BE COMPLETED, IT IS FINALLY OVER. THE OWNERS STEPPED IN AFTER A PERIOD OF TIME, THAT I FELT WAS A LITTLE TOO LONG. THEY SHOULD HAVE STEPPED IN WAY BEFORE NOW. HOWEVER, THIS BEING SAID, I THINK THAT THE FAULT LIES IN THE EMPLOYEES THAT ARE NO LONGER THERE. The owners not only made this right, they went above and beyond. We used our gift card last night, the food and service were excellent. I appreciate the owners making this right. My advice in the future, is please don't wait so long. The company finally responded, with no resolution. I was told to contact the former carrier for the gift cards. Which I did, they explained I would have to go to the business in order to rectify this. I already knew this as I'm very familiar with that syestem. So the end result is this
CLIENT PURCHASED A GIFT CARD FOR $50 AND GAVE IT TO ME FOR CHRISTMAS PREVIOUS MANAGER HAD STATED THAT HE COULD HONOR IT FOR 25 CURRENT MANAGER AND OWNER ARE STATING THEY CAN'T HONOR IT AT ALL
I HAVE TURNED THIS OVER TO THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU!!!!
SECOND EDIT AGAIN, BEWARE!!!!! I'VE EMAILED ALL INFORMATION THEY REQUESTED AND NO RESPONSE. THEY ARE RESPONDING TO THE REVIEWS BUT NOT FOLLOWING THROUGH WITH FIXING THE ISSUES. AS OF 9/28/25, THEY STILL HAVE THE MONEY FOR THE GIFT CARD, AND STILL HAVE NOT HONORED IT, NOR RESPONDED.
Edited, I have emailed the owner, per instruction, no reply yet.
This is a warning, if you have a gift card that is on their old system, you will not be able to use it. I had a house cleaning client give me a gift card for Christmas, I am not able to use it because they've changed their gift card system. This being said, the previous manager had looked up and researched the amount on the gift card. It was $25. Was just told I cannot use that. They are not honoring their gift cards. Which means they stole $25 from my client who bought this gift card. Beware

The food was pretty good except the zucchini was not cooked all the way through. The service was horrid. We went close to 15 minutes without a check in - twice. When she did check in, she spoke so softly we had to ask her to repeat herself. I’m not old or hard of hearing. When she was around, she acted as though basic request for water refills were annoying.

Had lunch today at this Government location. Bean dip was fiya as well as the queso, burrito supreme was delicious, and chips were fresh and crispy. My friends both enjoyed their dishes as well. Another great Mexican place in Mid City.
Typical mid-city dump. Terrible food bad service and a typical chain restaurant atmosphere. Go eat somewhere other than BR. Drive for an hour and go eat in New Orleans

There is no other Mexican restaurant like LA Coretta's air superb in every aspect . This one Is the best one out of all of them and they have 2 For one Margarita, That are on the rocks or frozen on the rocks is my favorite and many varieties, And to accompany them you can get an appetizer of spinach and order queso dip that is so Creamy and cheesy that you can't get enough of it.. But wait don't forget the hostess and the waiwe're very knowledgeable in what they do and always smile and try to make you as comfortable as possible through your entire dinner lunch or happy hour. Serving up sizzling fajitas and an entree of chicken and spinach with cheese on top that just melts in your mouth you could never get enough of private or there's your pull up to potly shrimp as an appetizer also. You can't beat the atmosphere inside your choice is a family oriented with great music service food and attitudes I love this Restaurant. I give my compliments to the cook because he deserves more than what he's getting paid. You are the best even though you have other branches this is the 1st and the others can not compare to the original midcity location. I tip my hat to them....Superb! Mucho Garcias me amors!

When my friend and I arrived we were seated right away at 7 PM and given chips. We sat talking among each other and realized it was now 7:27 PM and was never brought water or even meet our waiter.
To leave people sitting for 27 minutes and not even offer water is unacceptable. Not a great way to spend a Friday evening.

Drinks are terrible , food is delicious and service was amazing!
If I could rate this place a ZERO I WOULD! I literally just left after waiting for 30 minutes for ANY type of service! I had to go BACK inside to order my food because nobody came to service me then my order was incorrect! I spoke to a manager and he was very dismissive!

The atmosphere at the Mexican restaurant was great , very lively and welcoming, and it was easy to hold a conversation. The staff was friendly and accommodating, but service was a bit slow. Unfortunately, the food came out cold, as if it had been reheated and left to sit too long. Also, during the birthday celebration, they got the name wrong while singing, which was a little disappointing. Overall, the vibe was nice, but the details definitely missed the mark.
