La Doña Authentic Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Jefferson City

Disgusting. Just made me throw up instantly. Do not order from this place. There is something wrong with the beef enchilada with green sauce that I just ordered to where it smelled and tasted like an old cigarette. Their kitchen either isn't clean or they are using spoiled ingredients. I never usually leave reviews, but that was disgusting. If I could do zero stars, I would. Zero stars and a health inspection is what they need.

EDIT: Adding an edit since La Doña decided to respond. This business' response to a health concern show exactly what kind of business owners they are. Completely unwilling to take accountability. You are going to end up making someone very sick. You do not respond to a genuine health hazard concern by whining and saying "but but but everything is made fresh" Clearly it is not made fresh or I wouldnt be sick rigjt now! But that will be for the health inspector to decide once they get there to review after my...

This is some of the best Mexican food I've had outside of Mexico or California where I grew up.

So I'm very picky about Mexican but the quality at La Dona is outstanding. And I was shocked the last time I went in there because I went to pay the bill and the gentleman there told me it was free and on the house. I haven't had a restaurant do that in years.

These guys not only make incredible Mexican food that's so delicious and perfectly seasoned they are super friendly great service great staff and I would recommend them to anyone.

I've also lived in Central Mexico so I know the food down in Mexico City is some of the best in the world. But as far as US Mexican food goes this is on par with any of the best food I've had in LA or San Francisco and they have incredible Mexican food in LA My original hometown and SF Mexican is the bomb. Yet I was shocked that Central Missouri had such delicious Mexican food. Keep it...

I've eaten here several times recently, and I feel pretty strongly that this is the best Mexican food in JC right now (a couple of others come close). Everything is cooked to order, and everything my spouse and I have had has been delicious. Try the Chile Relleno dinner, it's way better than similar dishes you've had elsewhere locally. I've also had chorizo and eggs, and the caldo de pollo (chicken soup), and it's all just great.

Service is friendly, and it's a family business, which I like. I gave the 'atmosphere' a 5 as well, even though it's nothing special, but I just feel very comfortable and at-home there. They are very welcoming.

Also, the person who ordered a pizza there...why? Don't go to a Mexican restaurant and order frickin pizza. Of course it was microwaved, they're not set up in that small kitchen to make pizza...
