La Peña Mexicana is a charming and reasonably priced Mexican restaurant that offers great quality food. The menu features authentic and tasty dishes, including delectable Mexican eggs, chalupas, rice, beans, and flavorful fish tacos. The chips, pico de gallo, enchiladas platter, and variety of tacos, including the fried pork, are crowd-pleasers. Many customers enjoy the special meat burrito with lomo (seasoned shredded pork), burrito with asada, and chicken quesadilla, which come with generous portions of food. The huaraches and enchiladas are also highly recommended. The restaurant often provides little hot sauce containers and limes to complement the meals. There is a small eating area where customers can dine, but most prefer takeout due to the food traveling well and quick service—usually about 15 minutes. The owner is usually the one answering the phone and greeting visitors, showing care for the restaurant and its customers. Customers appreciate the friendly proprietor who occasionally breaks out in song, adding to the charm. Prices are reasonable considering the large amount of food served. Customers should pay cash to avoid credit card fees, as the restaurant does not inform about these charges. The small parking lot has some holes and could be improved, but it is rarely full. The building’s lighting and location among car repair shops and a construction site give it a hidden gem feel. Overall, La Peña Mexicana offers authentic flavors that are considered some of the best in the tri-state area, making it a favorite for many. The staff is friendly, and the food respects dietary restrictions, such as avoiding pork. It is a great spot for a satisfying meal that feeds the soul, with many considering it the best Mexican food they've ever had.
