La Salsa Rica Mexicana — Restaurant in Seoul

I grew up 40 mins from the Mexican border, so I've had my fair share of good Mexican food and it's definitely my favorite food. A lot of good Mexican places in Seoul have disappeared over the years, so I was so glad to come across this place

No lie, the first time I ate here I felt a rush of dopamine as I was eating. I've tried the carne asada, al pastor and carnitas tacos. I liked them all, but I'd say the carnitas were my least favorite. Their corn tortillas are good and seem to be made in house. I've also had the tacos dorados which is probably my favorite thing on the menu so far.

The gorditas were interesting because I've never had flour gorditas. Apparently it's how they make it in Durango.

The quesadillas were just average and not that filling in my opinion.

The chips and salsa are also great. They offer 4 different types of salas.

There are still a few other things I want to try on the menu including chile rellenos -- which I've never seen on the menu at another Mexican restaurant in Seoul. Come give it a try if you're looking for legit Mexican...

Pretty tasty Mexican place! Not bad at all. The Pozolito is actually quite nice and reminds me of home.

Some things are a little bit off. For example, I think the tacos need a bit more work. I wouldn’t call them authentic.

Same with the refried beans. They don’t taste bad, but something is off about them.

All of this being said, it’s actually a good restaurant and I’ve now gone there on 3 different occasions.

The enchiladas are good, so are the chilaquiles and as I mentioned the pozole is legit. I wish I could review the tamales, but I’ve gone 3 times now and they’ve never had them available.

One employee told me to come before 3pm, because they run out quickly. So I showed up at noon one day, and they didn’t have them. So I think they just don’t keep them in stock.

4/5 stars. Almost a perfect score but has room for...

My fiancée and I were looking for a vegetarian friendly restaurant and she came across this place and boy must I say, we have not regretted since.

3 times we’ve been here, 3 times I’ve happily spent my money here.

The burrito is lovely and the winning factor for this place is the “Macha and Negra” salsa! Spice alert, it’s just nice but may be too spicy but honestly, it’s to die for (literally? Maybe? Hahaha)

Also, quick tip, put all 4 sauces and then bite into your burrito, your tongue will thank me but your...
