La Esperanza Mexican Taqueria Restaurant — Restaurant in Sanford

Restaurant is clean. Menu entree items start around $13.99 and go up Small items ie..tacos mostly about $3. Watch for additional charges for example a taco comes with meat, onions and finely chopped cylantro. Additional charge of ,25 per item like lettuce, tomato, cheese..... Tap water is ,99 cent Menu items are not usual Mexican menu, They make a lot of their food from scratch. No complimentary chips or salsa. It's not even on the menu to order. They did make us some on request but it is not a usual item for them. We were not given cultry, we ordered tacos . So I guess they didn't think we needed it. However, they were greasy and messy so we definitely did need them. Staff was friendly but our order was simple yet it came without what we requested. We were the only people in the restaurant so being busy wasn't the problem. The waiter was kind and tried hard to fix our order. My opinion is that they need to tweek their menu/prices. Making sure customers have basic cultry and serve bottled water if you are going to charge for water. Make sure you say exactly what you want, no questions will be asked. Ie..corn or flour tortillas.... Not sure they have flour tortillas....we forgot to ask for them and they were not offered..... Without some changes I probably would...

First, the restaurant is well decorated, clean, and has outdoor seating. This is not a typical unlimited chips and salsa place, you order your food and enjoy. Service was prompt and friendly. So the food: amazing. I have resorted to making Mexican food at home, because I haven’t found a restaurant that can do it justice. This place is it. I ordered entirely too much, and found my plates clean anyway. I started with 2 tacos, Lengua and chorizo. I’ve never tried Lengua and it was a treat. They came with choice of sauce and sliced radishes. I also ordered the enchiladas roja, which came with rice and beans on the side. Also ordered a side of pico. The enchiladas were not swimming in tomato sauce, thank goodness. I picked up on a hint of adobo and they were garnished beautifully. The pico was fresh and delicious. And if y’all don’t know what Love is, those refried beans will let you know with the first bite. Many thanks to the owners, keep up the excellent work and we will see...

I happened to be in the area and craving Tacos. I stopped in even though I had questioned myself about since the parking lot was empty. Went inside, of course no customers were dinning in. I figured what the heck.

I was greeted and told I may sit anywhere I choose, sonic did. I was in the mood for Birria Tacos. So that is exactly what I ordered.

The order came out fairly quick. The Tacos and consome were hot. I dug into the tacos 🌮 with a dip in the consome. It's was mouth watering. So delicious. The tacos 🌮 had the perfect amount of meat, cheese cilantro and onion.

The meal was so delicious, I would highly recommend it. I'm not local but I will definitely return if...
