Taqueria LA Mexicana

At some urging from a few friends, I went to visit Taqueria La Mexican. It’s a traditional Mexican restaurant. With a decent sized menu. They have some actual dishes instead of just tacos and fajita plates.

I ordered the Nortena. It is made with bacon, sirloin, trompo, onion and pepper. They give you a good sized portion on a sizzling plate. The staff was somewhat friendly. My biggest disappointment was the tea being $1.99. Maybe it’s a new trend for restaurants to over price their drinks to make a profit, but it really turns me off. Meal with a tea came to $10.80. Not impressed. Not disappointed. Would I go again? No, at these prices, I can go to La Playa, get a special, and get a way better experience.
