La Estrella

Family run business (hopefully) in an off the beaten track location 1 hr from New Orleans. Good, filling food. Easy on spices - ordered a Baleada - basically a giant burrito without the rice and loosely rather than tightly bound. Their melon agua was homemade, as well as all the food. Kind with reasonable prices.

The 3 of us each ordered a different entree and all of agreed that each dish was tasty and generous. I wasn't expecting much when I saw the empty parking lot and the appearance of a super market awaiting me. But the bright decorations of the dining room and friendliness of the staff including the guy who took our orders and answered all our questions about items I was unfamiliar with, made us feel right at home. Only issue was an extended time of noise when a kitchen appliance was wailing away. When I caught the eye of staff it abruptly ended. Our past experiences with many meals from restaurants with this cuisine allowed us to give 's to this little place!

Delicious authentic Mexican food tucked away in an unassuming location! The staff was very helpful, and the food was so so good! We'll be back!

I'm Honduran and I did not like the Honduran plate on their menu. No where in Honduras do we incorporate hotdog as some type of sausage. Other than that the food was good the place small. The lack of payment for struggling families is sad for the grocery part. Over priced mantequilla and semillitas. Hopefully though since it's the only authentic Spanish restaurant with a grocery That they improve.

Really good and authentic Mexican food. They have a good variety of meats for there tacos, tortas and gorditas. The restaurant is inside of a small market. The spicy guacamole was delicious freshly made to order but since they called it spicyi was expecting more spice. The carna asada was great perfect chat on the meat with the creamy refried beans which were some of the best I've had. The heuvos ranchero had a spicy sauce with perfectly cooked eggs along with the same delicious beans and rice. A really good find that I didn't know was in Thibodaux.

Absolutely amazing flavors! Driving threw for work hit up Yelp for suggestions and thank you again Yelp community. Walking in , it's a small grocery store but hidden in the corner is an a delicious oasis. Simple menu and for a first visit just grabbed a burrito and a taco thank heavens didn't order more cause two items I was full under ten bucks. I work a lot in Texas and know good authentic Mexican flavors and wow la estrella delivers. That pastor burrito was huge , well seasoned, and no yellow cheese . (Sorry when I see yellow cheese I think Tex Mex) the Barbacoa taco not greasy , but so flavorful and not masked by cilantro and onion the rich beefy flavor was delicious.

A mix between a Mexican grocery store and a hole in the wall restauarant. Ordered a burrito to go which was chock full of carne asada, rice, onions, and more. The one qualm I do have is that they didn't add any lettuce to the burrito, but think that is an add on you can request (and some may prefer their burrito to be lettuce-less anyway!) All in all, a good burrito at a good price and would come back to this place to try their other dishes.
