Taqueria La Loma — Restaurant in Akron

What was supposed be a celebration of my daughter getting straight A's, turned out to be one of the worse meals we have ever have had in our lives. No joke! I don't think I have ever given a one star review, and if I have, it doesn't happen very often at all.

We start off by looking at Rhett menu and ordering. The gentleman elk took our order was very less than impressed, to say the least. I could almost say he was a tad rude. Eh, oh well. Let's move on. My wife pays while the four of us go and find a table. We walk into the dining area, and it's a dirty disgusting mess. The tables seem to be wiped. In hind sight they probably use the same rags for the table as they do the floor. (no joke. I could very well be right) I take us to the table in the corner and there is trash and food all around and under the table. What day down and there was a rancid smell. My oldest daughter said ur smelled like curdled milk. I moved us to another table. In my mind, with the reviews this place had the food had to be amazing.

A gentleman brought us chips and salsa right away. We said thank you. He said nothing.

We ordered chips and cheese chorizo dip, and chips and guacamole dip. After half an hour and watching all the people who came on after get their cops and dip, I started to get concerned. The lady who was bringing everyone their chips and salsa kept coming asking people who ordered cops and dip. I Kelli telling her we did. She was getting pissed at me. After the third person who came in after us got there appetizers, she asked what we ordered. I told her and she seemed very inconvenienced by us.

Then they brought us or food about 40 minutes after sitting. After they brought us or food, they brought out or chips and dip.

All of our food was COLD! Five meals. I wasn't about to complain and get spat in our food. I went to the front counter and asked for a bunch of box's so we could take our cold food home and heat it up.

The lady didn't even care. She took five minutes to give us box's. She didn't even say sorry, and she acted like it was an inconvenience. $65.00 for crappy food, and we tipped before we even sat down. (you order, tip, and pay before you get food) we tipped $15.00 what a wasted time.

We did take our food home and heated it up. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't good. It was a $30.00 meal at best. The tip should have been given back.

The people are rude. They don't care. The food sucks, the place is filthy and disgusting, and the bathroom should be condemned.

The only way I can see this place ever getting a 4.7 star rating like they had before we went there today is by having all their friends and family rate this place. And it's this voice ever was as good as people say, that ship has sailed a long long time ago. I would never go back to this place. I would never recommend this place. I would stay away from this place.

I've done hundreds of reviews on hundreds of places all across this country. And I honestly don't think I have ever had such a bad experience. And if I have , no I don't think I have. This has to be the...

SWEET MOTHER OF MONKEY MILK! I NEVER....I repeat NEVER review a place while I am eating. But I cannot contain my excitement. No wonder this place is 5 stars....I'd give it a 100 if I could! Growing up in the Puerto Rican hub of Cleveland, I have been to a million taquerias in my life. Not to mention, I've had thousands of homemade tacos, tamales and guac. I've eaten so many avocados, I'm surprised the meat of my body isn't green!

This is BY FAR the most authentic taqueria I have ever been to. In an area I would never expect to find one. True to a traditional taqueria, you place your order first and then they bring you your food. No thrills, no hub bub....just food to fill your tummy. But unlike most, this place has some awesome decor and is very clean. You know me, clean is an entire star for me.

I place my order and within 5 minutes I was stuffing my face. No euphemism here folks. This food is so good, I literally stuffed my face!

1. Guacamole- OMFG!!!! Yes, I just used the f word, but really...it is needed. This guacamole is hands down the best guac I have ever had. Chunky pieces of avocado, and just the right amount onion and cilantro....and a hint of lime. I could have made this stuff my meal. I want more!!!

2. Tacos- I got the chorizo and barbacoa. I am an absolute chorizo snob. Dude, this chorizo gave me a total foodasm. I think the table next to me thought I needed medical attention....because I was moaning so loudly! Often times the chorizo is greasy and overspiced. Not this stuff! Perfectly spiced, ground to perfect and pan fried to a nice texture with just a bite of crunch. The barbacoa was super tender and the seasoning was spot on! Served on two FRESH soft corn tortillas. PERFECTION!

3. Tamale- I must admit, I am not a huge fan of tamale. I got it because I wanted to see if they could change my mind. I gotta admit, this thing was pretty damn good. I ate about half of it. Soft, moist and flavorful. Most of the ones I have had, have been dry and tasteless. With the exception of my friends abuela growing up. I think I actually like these.

Dude. Stop what you are doing and head to this AMAZING taqueria. You will not be disappointed. In fact, you will have found your new go to for Latin...

My experience with this place went from bad to worse almost as soon as I sat at my booth and looked over the menu. They have on their menu 4 basic margarita flavors (strawberry, kiwi lime, etc) and below the flavors lists several different size options to choose from but because each of the size options is a slash followed by whatever sizes they offer and then the word gold after the size. So I asked what the difference was between a large margarita and a large gold margarita and was told gold is just a higher priced liquor option. So I said, okay, id like a large gold strawberry margarita, but was told I couldn't mix flavors. I was then told that I would be mixing if I chose the large gold and the strawberry.. basically the waiter was confused, he doesn't have a clue what they serve or have any desire to try to understand where the confusion is coming from. After I finally say fine just give me the regular frozen drink to make it easy. He comes back to get our food order so I tell him I just wanted to order 3 hard beef tacos with just meat and cheese on them. Nice and simple, tell me why he said they only offer hard tacos during the weekdays from the hours between 1pm and 3pm and that's it. I was so shocked by this info that I didn't order any food, that's all I ever get from any Mexican restaurant, what would have been helpful to know is that alright they don't offer true hard taco shells on their menu, they do deep fry their soft shells which honestly looked delicious when I saw my husband's plate. So first the drink order was awful and confusing, followed by a waiter who never even attempted to up sell or educate customers about their menu and food options, which eventually ended in us having to down over $60 for two regular frozen margaritas (not the top shelf ones either) a cup of white cheese and chips, and my husband's 3 beef birria soft but fried tacos. Their prices are outrageous and I doubt they'll last long around here.. not around Akron/Goodyear heights/Ellet area. I don't plan on going back that's for sure. Awful experience. I don't recommend going to this place to anyone unless I...
