Lala's Cafe, a South Texas institution for over 70 years, is known for its authentic Mexican food prepared with care. The homemade corn tortillas and puffy tacos are popular dishes that keep customers coming back. The food is made to order, ensuring freshness and a good taste. The restaurant has a simple, old divey appearance, located in the middle of nowhere, but it is a hidden gem worth the drive from nearby cities. Customers enjoy the no-frills, homemade Mexican food, including salsa and hamburgers, with some noting the great service and history of the place. While the enchilada sauce may lack flavor for some, the crispy tacos remain a favorite. Overall, Lala's Cafe offers a genuine Mexican dining experience that appeals to those seeking delicious, straightforward food in a nostalgic setting.
