Not gonna lie, thoroughly disappointed. After the great reviews my wife and I wanted to try. We got 5 different tacos, elotes, and churros. I'll review each.
The best tacos were the carnitas and the el pastor. The steak, chicken, and (I forget the other) were "meh." Nothing special, not super flavorful. Very forgetful tacos. The only high point were the sauces, which helped make the tacos taste better.
The elotes were awful. God awful. They were soggy and soft without any crunch. The mayo cheese and toppings were very mild. The whole thing tasted bland. My wife couldn't even finish hers. I'm not sure if they were sitting out all day or what, but obviously the corn was NOT fresh.
Nothing special about the churros. Tasted like they were probably frozen and just dropped in a fryer. Can't taste bad with sugar on fried dough but they were nothing to go back for.
Overall I haven't been this disappointed by a meal in a very long time. Not sure if I'll give it a shot again, maybe they just...
Read moreI really wanted to like this place, but instead got ripped off! I got a torta, which is the most expensive food item on the menu at $9.50. You can see from the attached photos that there was almost no meat on the sandwich. Some beans and a few vegetables and enough meat to get it in maybe every third bite. Pathetic. I also got two tacos but was too annoyed to even take photos of them. Suffice to say, they were even worse. At $2.75 a piece they were both gone in a few bites. My wife and I love authentic Mexican food and eat a lot of it in the U.S. and Mexico. I’m not commenting on the quality or authenticity because there honestly wasn’t enough of anything to judge it properly. But, I feel like I just had my money stolen from me and that’s not cool. If you want great, authentic Mexican without getting ripped off, you’re much better going to Tula or Taqueria Guadalajara, or any number of great food trucks...
Read moreThis place is wonderful. The owners are a married couple with an adorable little kid. They are exceptionally warm and kind. They are the kind of people that make you feel good that they are making your food. And that’s the best part! The food is fantastic. It is very much in the style of Chipotle, but it is more affordable and higher quality. My family (my wife and I and our two kids) have regularly gotten dinner for $20. The pastor pork is my recommendation. And I know this is a strange thing to write up in a google review, but the rice is exceptional. Rice is so easy to make it is rarely remarkable, but when prepared well the difference is noticeable. They make great rice!
Oh, and they have incredible ice cream! They have shaved ice too, but I haven’t tried it yet.
Laguna is a simple family place with delicious food at a...
