Their hawaiian fajitas are excellent! Spicy and creamy! The cheese and veggies dip was also delicious!

Waitress was very sweet! Our dinner came out quickly. I recommend the fajitas. My daughter ordered the tortilla soup w/chicken but it wasn’t to her liking. The sweet waitress brought her out two tacos instead which she enjoyed!

One of the best Mexican restaurants in the Ponchatoula Hammond area. I am always met with a friendly hostess in the most amazing chips and salsa on every occasion I’ve visited. One of my favorite meals here at like La Catrina Mexican restaurant is the fajitas there cooked just right every time.

Went to LA Catrina in Ponchatoula... hands down one of the best Mexican restaurants I've ever been to....unfortunately the owner said they do be closing down soon because they need more business.....I had the "off menu" Fajita Quesadilla. This was huge and extremely tasty. 2 of us ate and with tip it was only 50.00....Insane. Great food, great service..... please go try it let's keep them open.

This Hass to be one of my favorite Mexican spots. I come here every time I get a chance I'd like to get the Michelada also there is several dishes there that I really enjoy the chips and salsa are always fresh.

Tried this place a few times. Best I can describe the food is low on flavor. Undercooked chili rolling. Chef seems to be lazy. I've given it my last chance.

Music and margaritas every Thursday and Saturday! The best between Hammond and Ponchatoula! Love the Catrina salad! It is large and filling. I've lived in this area for 20 years and tried all the Mexican restaurants. If you want smaller dining space, neon lights, higher prices, less on your plate, and pay more... go to the other Mexican restaurants. Here you get the best price for the quantity and quality.
Food was ok. Waitress was horrible. Was not attentive at all. Don't think she spoke any English either. Will not go

Experience was bad, took forever for waiter to take my drink order, he waited till our whole group was there to take food orders instead of doing it we were seated, which resulted in a lot of simple, fast orders sat in the window and got cold waiting for the other meals. The meat in my Taco Salad was cold and tougher than shoe leather. Had there been more time, i would have refused it, but had a meeting to attend! Seated at 5:10 pm , meal arrived at 6:35 pm....then on top of that, mandatory gratuity for 8 or more people for slow service and cold food. Would have confronted manager, but had another obligation that i was late for!!!! NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!! DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!! ALSO....... THE MARGARITA HAD NO ALCOHOL IN IT!!!! I CANNOT GIVE LESS THAN 1 STAR AS WITH NO STARS ...NO COMMENTING!¡!!!

My wife and I celebrate Cinco de Mayo because it's the day we met almost 30 years ago and we have been very frustrated for eight years now because there isn't any good Mexican food on the North Shore until now. La Catrina in Ponchatoula not only had a great band for Cinco de Mayo but the food was very good too. There were two things we did not enjoy. One was the waitress. She was pretty bad and the other was being served margaritas in plastic cups that is such a no-no! But I can tell you this, the bean dip, which is topped with the white queso was incredible. The fajitas all the chicken was very good. The shrimp was hardly seasoned at all and I didn't enjoy the beef either so next time is just chicken.

Great lunch with friends! The food was all GREAT! Everyone enjoyed the freshness, and the portion size and price was perfect! We enjoyed sitting outside on the beautiful day with the fountain in the background! The waitress and servers were all nice and helpful! We received our food quickly! What a great restaurant!

Amazing food, quality, and service. Amazing food that is very good and tastes amazing. Servers are amazing and very polite.Edit: Thank you to Oscar, and the bartender, didn't catch your name. You two give top of the line service and are always very helpful everytime we go. The entire staff is amazing, but you two stand out. Thank you!
