Their kindness and willingness to give back to the community truly means so much. The taco bar was an absolute hit — fresh, delicious, and enjoyed by everyone!

“⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Star Review

I am a regular customer, and I visited QDOBA Mexican Grill on Valentine’s Day evening. It was truly an incredible experience.

Maria, the Manager, and Kate, the Assistant Manager, made the evening very special for my love 😍 and my family. Their hospitality, warm attitude, and genuine care really stood out. You can clearly see when a team takes pride in what they do, and they absolutely do.

Just look at the picture. The bowls were beautifully presented and loaded with fresh ingredients, vibrant colors, generous portions, and amazing flavors. Everything tasted as good as it looks.

And let me say this honestly, everyone should try QDOBA at least once. I am confident you will forget about Chipotle Mexican Grill after experiencing the difference.

QDOBA offers:
• So many different sauces
• 2 types of queso
• FREE fresh guacamole
• More topping options
• Better value for the price
• Great quantity with excellent quality

When you compare price, quality, and quantity, QDOBA truly stands out. The overall value and variety are simply unmatched.

Must try at least once. I am sure after one visit, you will turn from Chipotle to QDOBA.

Highly recommended. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Absolutely phenomenal! This place was amazing!“

“Quick service with fantastic food, with very friendly staff. I would love to eat here again!“

“When I want Mexican food, I come here! It’s the best hands down authentic Mexican food!“

“The food is always delicious. The employees are friendly and attentive. I would highly recommend LA Bamba to anyone looking for authentic Mexican food!“

“First time eating here today we were just passing by on our way home thinking about having good lunch and order for to go as well.
We had tacos, mine was the special (with everything) pork al pastor hubby wanted the birria tacos but sadly they only had it for Friday. So he only had regular basic pork al pastor. Both were really good.
For to go I ordered chicken burrito (while I write this review my son didn’t have that burrito yet so I can’t say it’s good or not lol but I have faith that will be good), flautas was good, 4 tamales and bistec ala mexicana.
The bistec ala mexicana was with red tomato sauce all over I wasn’t expecting that. Usually when I order similar menu from different place it was just sautéed onions and grilled jalapenos on top and no sauce. Anyway the taste wasn’t that bad but the bistec was a bit thin and hard to chew.
All workers was friendly also price is reasonable.“

“as soon as you walk in the owner will greet you. the quality of food is phenomenal, you do get your money's worth and then some. and the price is not bad at all for authentic Mexican food.“

“Great food and service. Highly recommend.“

“The food is always delicious!“

“If you want just authentic Mexican Food look no further LA Placita delivers from burritos to tacos to enchiladas with mole sauce and other Mexican dishes and soups and you have your choice of different meats to fill your choices with the green salsa is mild the red sauce is delicious but hot in a nice way this is more like a take out place though I believe they have a few tables in the back not recommended for big crowds looking to sit down to eat this is a hidden Gem 💎 Thank me Later“

“Omg the food was amazing the service was exceptional and the prices are amazing. Our first time going and it won’t be our last the drinks are a plus too. You won’t be disappointed. This is a hidden gem the chicken soup is to die for.“

“Finally found an Authentic Mexican Restaurant to go to!! Mexico Lindo in Easton was spot on! With your dine in order they gave homemade tortilla chips with all homemade salsas, and a free side of guac! Clean Silverware, Clean cups, refills without having to ask, they were very attentive. My woman got Bistec en Salsa verde, which was incredible, the meat was perfect! Trust me, my woman is picky , and she ate it all!! lol I ordered the Flautas from their vegan menu and it was perfect! To complete the meal, we ordered the Churros which turned out to be homemade!! You have to check this spot out!! 10/10“

“This spot took me by surprise when I first visited. Literally one of the best Mexican food spots in town. I’ve become a regular ever since. Best prices. Best food quality. Just wish they were open till later since I get off of work at 6. They always close the kitchen at 5:30. Other than that. Best spot in town. Highly recommend!“

“Just had an amazing authentic Mexican Lunch at Tijuana Tacos on 309 in Quakertown. I had the chicken flautas, my husband had their Birria Tacos. The consomme was on point!!! Both were exceptionally well prepared. They give free fresh tortilla chips with beans and queso fresco crumbles right as you sit down. They offer a really nice menu selection and the service was quick and personable! 5 stars!“

“excellent service, excellent food, excellent drinks, casual, fun and friendly vibe. had my first visit here tonight and will 100% be returning!“

“I am beyond impressed, the food was delicious and perfectly seasoned! The service is fast! You order at the counter and can do to go or you can sit in their sitting area upstairs! Very cozy and super clean, I am not usually in this area a lot but I will be definitely be coming back often just for this restaurant! The portions are very big and I definitely recommend coming with an appetite! And they now accept card payments!“

“I have eaten here several times and always have had an amazing experience. But if you need a place to host a private event go to Tacos y Tequila in Allentown. My friends and I threw one of our best friends a surprise birthday party and Tacos y Tequila went above and beyond. Edriana was my organizer she was so helpful especially with my 100 questions ?. Brandon is the manager he was so kind and attentive. We had two amazing servers by the name of Jose and Kayla. They were so kind and I hope to get them as servers again in the future. The food of course was amazing. They set a menu for you and your guest and everyone enjoyed everything. Their mojitos are also amazing. I definitely will use their services again.“

“I ordered door dash here for the first time and the enchiladas in red sauce were excellent!! Whatever they do to that red sauce had me slurping this meal down. I haven't really found authentic Mexican food like this since moving to Allentown from Philadelphia and have been trying a bunch of different places to get the right taste that I'm used to. There were 3 chicken enchiladas in spicy red sauce, and a side of rice and refried beans. The staff were very friendly that I dealt with on the phone with questions before placing my order.“

“They won the dinner choice tonight the competitor across the street dining room is always filthy. When we came in and employee was out wiping tables down floors clean trash is empty. This shows me that the employees care and the quality of food speaks for itself in the pictures Yummy.“

“Stumbled upon this gem on accident and will definitely be coming back to sample the whole menu (breakfast all day!!!). Food was super quick AND tasted amazing, all fresh ingredients. Very authentic and the owner is buena gente“

“7/4/26 I came across this restaurant by accident and let me tell you 10/10. It was morning time and they already had different types of food prepared. I tried the arroz con guandules, oxtail, beans and a side of a green salad, it was delicious it actually felt like my grandma cooking. I also ordered 5 alcapurrias de yuca 10/10. Please give this place a try next time you are in the area. Customer service 10/10. Please keep the good work.“

“Finally a delicious and authentic Mexican restaurant! My husband is originally from the Chicago area where taquerias are on every corner. His family is from Mexico so we are use to having homemade Mexican. Pancho Villa is exactly what we were looking for locally! Def our new go to! Highly recommend! You can’t beat the delicious homemade tortillas! Atmosphere is cute and service was excellent!“
