La Pena

This was a great lunch. Visiting for work from CLT, NC. The waiter was very helpful with suggesting a meal for me. The salsa that came with the chips was fresh and tasty. That was followed by the best table made guacamole I have had in quite some time. He put jalapeños, onion, cilantro and tomato is and it was exquisite. I had 3 co-worker that all are "Keto heads" so it was comical for me to watch them eat theirs with a spoon like it was ice cream.Per the waiters (Only identified as server #1) suggestion I had a combination of steak and chorizo cooked with onions and queso with rice and refried beans. Great tasting meal with flour tortillas and/or chips. Myself and my coworkers were all very satisfied with their meals. I will be back when next I am in Hazard, KY. 5 stars and then some!!!

All I will say is check "especially well" your beans (refried) beans at this place. I hadn't ate here in 10 years due to a whole cockroach I found in my beans once. Decided surely after 10 years an new management maybe it was taken care of. Nope a few weeks back ate there again, guess what was in my beans once more!? You guessed it a whole cockroach. Nope... no thank you! Will not be eating there again!

The best Mexican in hazard. The cheese dip is the perfect consistency. The guacamole is awesome. The food is great.

Tasty Mexican favorites. I chose the shrimped fajitas which were plentiful and flavorful. Staff was friendly, service we quick. The chips and salsa were excellent. Highly recommend this place if you are in Hazard.

Hardly Mexican food. I would only recommend this place for large families that are not used to eating anything different from their own geographic area. I can only say, this place is clean, staff is friendly, service is fast.

They're food is great, but what I love most about La pena is how fast they are! I can get food faster here than I can at taco bell. I've never waited more than 10 minutes for my food.

Fast friendly service. Excellent chips and salsa. The fajitas for two are huge and delicious!

So far this is the best place to eat in hazard that I've found. We ordered the beef quesadilla. They were smothered in cheese and it was awesome. I can't wait to go back and eat there. The service is great. They are so friendly.

Friendly and professional staff, lively atmosphere, decent alcohol selection; and pretty good food.

The best Mexican food in the world!! I would highly recommend this place to anyone who want fast Mexican food! It's amazing! Saxon sucks
