The food here is phenomenal- probably the best Mexican in town. I’ve had pretty much all of the restaurants. Their tacos, rice, and beans are absolutely delish! My only complaint is that it is very expensive. The price prevents me from eating here sometimes because I can get it cheaper at other places. But once in a while I will splurge for this place. Wish the prices would come down a little bit!

I am a tamale super fan and they had terrific tamales and also a surprisingly good cheese enchilada. The chips were thick and crunchy. It’s my second time here and I can’t wait to come back.

Friendly and quiet inside, nice bright colors! The food was great! We had the Chile relleno and taco platters. We left stuffed with a bit of leftovers. We have plans to come more often.

Legit authentic food! Could tell the tortillas were made by hand! 🙏 Good option if you want authentic Mexican food rather than Americanized. The staff were super friendly and ran outside after us when they thought we had left our debit card (it was actually someone who had done the drive through).

Review for La Poblana – May 19, 2025 1 star – Extremely Disappointed
I don’t usually leave negative reviews, but I feel compelled to share our awful experience at La Poblana on May 19th, 2025.
My family and I came in for dinner and ordered three meals with drinks — we spent nearly $100, and it was absolutely not worth it. I ordered the caldo de res, expecting something hearty and homemade, but what I got was anything but fresh. The broth was overloaded with chili or jalapeño to the point of being hard to eat. The meat was clearly not freshly cooked — it tasted like it had been sitting around and reheated more than once. The vegetables were rubbery and overcooked. I couldn’t even eat it. I pushed it aside after a few spoonfuls.
We also had a plate with meat, rice, and beans. The beans tasted like they had been scraped from the bottom of a burnt pot and mixed with others in an attempt to hide the burnt flavor. The rice had no seasoning at all — just bland. Even my daughter barely touched her food. My husband tried to make the best of it but ended up leaving most of his plate too.
What made it worse was the cook or waiter coming by to ask if everything was okay. Out of politeness, we said yes, but it was obvious from our plates we didn’t enjoy the food. We barely touched it. It felt insulting to be asked that question when the quality was so poor.
For nearly $100, we expected something decent. Instead, we left hungry, frustrated, and feeling ripped off. I do not recommend La Poblana. They should know better than to serve food like that and then pretend it’s okay.

Great service. Decent food. Good quality but a little bland. If that’s your seeet spot, it’s a win.
The food was so good and the waitress Sylvia was so nice and kind.
