My friends and I were enjoying food and drinks at La Mexicana when the Re-up band and security personnel showed up unexpectedly.

Great food, great staff. Good spot whether you are new or a regular. Tasty/ strong alcoholic drinks if you’re into that sort of thing.

La Mexicana offers a welcoming atmosphere with complimentary chips and salsa. The menu features a build-your-own burrito option and happy hour specials from 3pm-7pm. Standout dishes include the grilled chicken fajita quesadilla and pork chop with rice and beans. While ordering can sometimes be inconsistent, the restaurant provides a lively bar area with plenty of TVs and reasonable prices. Customers have enjoyed the good food and friendly service, especially during events like comedy nights. However, some reviews mention that the food is not always authentic and can take time to prepare, with some dishes made from store-bought ingredients. Despite these minor issues, La Mexicana remains a decent spot for a tasty meal and a fun atmosphere.
