La Isla Restaurant — Restaurant in Arlington

I asked if they had pastor burritos and the waitress told me yes but since its the weekend you have to pay $1 extra so I was fine with that, but when my food comes I get 2 tacos that looked like they were from taco bell and had ground beef and when I told her I ordered pastor she argued and told me "no you didn't" and said that the only meat they have is beef and chicken and that pastor can only be in a taco. I've been living in Austin for the last year ordering only in spanish at the restaurants I eat at and I have pastor burritos regularly and they take up an entire large plate. The next thing is that I paid $1.75 for a Dr. Pepper with no refills because it came from a can. I could have gone to the gas station next door and bought a can for 50 cents and drank that instead. Terrible food that I couldn't finish and way over priced with extremely rude service. What happened to "The customer is always right" ?? Never again will I step foot in that place....

We always been a huge fan of the location on Park Row, but they closed. Today i tried this location because I missed the food. I was not disappointed. The food was excellent, and the service was even better. This is not a fancy place to eat, but it's damn delicious and they treat you well. I will definitely return.

I was surprised to see a bill for $64.00. Like I said, it was good, but not $64.00 good. After dining at the La Islas for over 21 years, I don’t see myself returning at...

HORRIBLE How this place has 4 stars is beyond me. Got my order wrong twice!!! Bland food. I thought i would getting authentic food here clearly I was mistaken maybe I ordered the wrong kind of enchiladas or maybe they serve different food to Americans. I just wonder how are they even still in busines. the chili con carne that was supposed to be on the enchiladas i had to ask for. It was like canned chili that you put on top of a hot dog. I was amazed! Terrible!!! When I pulled up around dinner time and only saw three cars in the parking lot that should have been my queue then but I know some places have slow days. I ordered to different plates and combined I maybe took three bites off of each plate paid for my food and...
