La Corona

Friendly and very attentive service, spot is very simple and cozy. Food and portions are fantastic, except they can be a little shy with their rice.

We went to La Corona for lunch today, having wanted to try this place out for a while. They opened just shortly before the height of covid, which is a testament to the business, especially considering their name, at that time when businesses were already struggling without having any likeness to CoronaVirus.The interior of the restaurant is fairly small with a mixture of tables and booths. It's clean and colorful. They have really neat, colorful, hand made chairs and booths which add to the flair.Chips and salsa came out right after our drink orders were taken; their tortilla chips are a festive regular corn color with some blue and red chips sprinkled in. The single type of salsa brought to us was obviously house made, a deep red color with a smoky flavor and just a little burn at the end. I had the stuffed avocado which was pretty good. The breading was fairly light and crisp, the avocado was perfectly ripe and it was loaded with a decent amount of beef and cheese, it also came with a beef fajita taco, rice and beans. The beef in the taco was diced into fairly small pieces, with a nice char on it and a good flavor. Rice and beans were pretty standard fair, nothing to write home about.My wife had the 'Martin' plate, or plates, if you will. It literally came out on 2 separate plates, consisting of a chicken flauta, beef fajita taco, chili relleno, cheese enchilada with rice and beans, for $19. That was a ton of food for the price. She barely ate half of it before needing a box.The others in our party seemed to enjoy their shared chicken enchilada and shrimp fajitas. Service was plentiful and friendly. All in all a good experience, nothing mind blowing, just solid Mexican food.

Best Tex-Mex. Love the Acapulco dinner. Great margaritas and great, friendly service!

Good food good drinks Good service *** It can get hot inside in the summer time , FYI

We wanted to try a Mexican something we hadn't tried before and we were down to 4.5 star choices. We decided to try La Corona on this Saturday night. Immediately we were pleased with the friendliness and welcoming atmosphere of staff. We started with drinks ( Jumbo skinny marg and a Pacifico in a cold glass) Menu is pictured and expansive. We started with a white cheese queso ($7 small) and fresh small guacamole ($9 small). Both were excellent. Mix in a warm salsa, spicy to the tongue and we are off and rolling. The waitress had recommendations and I landed on the mole chicken enchiladas ( $19) while my girl went for ala Cartech items at $4 per (brochette, crispy beef taco and chicken flauta. We were both pleasantly surprised but reviews don't lie! The mole was on point and the shredded chicken was seasoned and tender. This was a good experience and we will most definitely be back.

I've had lunch here twice within the past month. La Corona is located in Vintage Park with plenty of parking available next to the restaurant. Inside its decor is festive with nice artwork and music all in a Mexican theme, of course.After being seated by the hostess and presented the menu, on my first visit, I asked for the chicken fajitas with charro beans and their homemade flour tortillas ($17). First to arrive was the customary chips and red salsa. I enjoyed these a lot. The chips were fresh and not too thick and the salsa was warm and delicious. No complaints here! About 15 minutes later the entree arrived and I was pleased with what I saw. To begin with, the beans were very tasty in the too large bowl and I would order them again. The fajitas had plenty of meat but I would have liked more onions and peppers. Taste wise it was all very good and with the supplied guac, pico de Gallo and salad made it an enjoyable meal. Table service was also very good.I returned a couple of weeks later and this time chose the chicken fajita burrito with chili sauce but holding the cheese for $13. I forgot that I tried chicken fajita meat on the first visit and would have ordered the beef had I remembered. Again, the chips and salsa were very good and the burrito arrived about 10 minutes later. Also on the plate were refried beans and Spanish rice. The burrito was delicious smothered in the chili sauce. The sauce accented the taste. The refried beans and rice were good too but next time I might ask to sub for the charro beans Just because I liked them a little better. Finally, the table service matched my first visit.I believe La Corona to be a quality Tex Mex restaurant that I would be happy to return to and will.

I wasn't wowed this time around. My chicken tortilla soup was outrageously expensive for the quality and quantity of actual meat/quality ingredients. I had maybe 1/2 cup of incredibly finely shredded chicken (think human hair width) and big chunks of veggies thrown in (I had to use a knife to cut up 90% of the veggies). The broth was thin and underwhelming rather than some sort of complicated soup worth $14 for a bowl. Water refills stopped after our plates hit the table instead of after we paid the bill (which I feel like is more customary). The chips tasted store bought instead of made in-house but I didn't not bother asking. I do totally approve of the decor - the carved benches and murals are 10/10. Our meal for two people came out to $30, which is still a fair price overall. The overall restaurant is pretty quiet and not distracting like some restaurants are. The booths are kind of sound resistant so it would be a decent location to have a private conversation. However, there is an El Tiempo right next door with prices that are about the same so I can't recommend La Corona like I used to.

This place ... HOLY COW!!!! We stopped in for a drink and wound up staying a while! We were there at lunch and when we walked in it smelled so clean. Staff went above and beyond. We were able to catch up and have a conversation without the staff always stopping by. However, they were attentive enough to notice our drinks were running low which is always important. We started out with chips and warm salsa. It isn't like the traditional cold salsa. Then we had the white queso. It was sooo good. Could have made a meal out of just those. I went ahead and got the cheese enchiladas and a red crunchy taco. Everything tasted wonderful. I can't wait to go back and try the fried avocado. It looked really good as well.

Food and service were amazing! Had the enchiladas de mole. Absolutely legit and delicious. Carlos was our server and he was Superman!!!

The food is always great! Chicken Fajita Burrito, Churros and Ice Cream. The restaurant is well keep
