Mexicana

Planned on lunching with a friend at a restaurant that was closed for a private event, and we ended up here. I was not feeling it as I had had Mexican the night before. Alas, friend wanted Mexican. I ended up ordering a carnitas quesadilla; I am partial to quesadillas. This was by far the best quesadilla I have ever had. The ingredients were so fresh and full of robust flavor. Unlike with most quesadillas, the cheese wasn't just there to drown everything out with its glorious comfort food crown, it somehow waltzed with the tasty carnitas and the other ingredients.Bravo!

Chilaquiles ought to be impossible to screw up like this.Should be this easy. Tomato juice soaked tortilla chips, cover in eggs, cheese, beans, onions and cilantro, bake to melt cheese, wins every time. How can that combination possibly fail?Apparently, by keeping all the ingredients separate, and forgetting the cheese. I'm flabbergasted.Two stars instead of one b/c my wife was satisfied with her burrito.

After a morning at the Tilden Botanical Gardens and having ridden the train we were ready for lunch. A quick search on Yelp brought us to the Epicurious Garden for some Mexican food. The food was authentically good. The chips and salsa were an additional order. The pico, cilantro and onions were freshly cut. The chili sauce was spicy hot. The service was efficient and they assured that we received our full order. This was a multi counter establishment in the Epicurious garden.

Aside from the prices being reasonable, the food being delicious, and the wait time being small, I appreciate that I can easily make my meal vegan by specifying either grilled vegetables or tofu as the filling, and excluding the cheese. Awesome! Adding Mexicana to my short list. I will be back!

IMO this is considered a skinny mini burrito. Meant for a child. The circumference is barely bigger than a standard 24oz water bottle. I didn't see nor taste any cheese in this "bean rice and cheese burrito." When I questioned the staff, none of them offered to address or fix the discrepancy at all. I can pay $2 more at a chipotle to have unlimited toppings (except guacamole) and double up on everything. Chipotles burrito will be like 2-3 meals depending on how much you eat. Mexicana's burrito was literally an appetizer or snack--- didn't fill me up at all.

Mixicana food is one of the best Mexican restaurants I advise you to try the shrimp cassadia it's the fire ..

Great food at great prices!! The service was great and the food was served quickly. I recommend the chorizo breakfast burrito!!

Great burritos every time I go, done just right! The people who run the place are very nice as well.

This is our go-to place for take-out: good food, fair prices, and kind folks working here.We have a range of food preferences/ restrictions that Mexicana is consistently good about accommodating. Our favorites: chicken quesadillas, each of the tacos, and the burritos with a side of guacamole. Sauces (and the guacamole) are mildly spicy, for those sensitive to spice.Definitely recommended. Check 'em out.

Caesar salad might not be the first thing most people write about at a Mexican restaurant (even though it was invented in Mexico!), but Mexicana's is my favorite! The dressing is so good and they use big, fresh, croutons and delicious seasoned chicken. We also usually get the burrito, which is always good as well. Mexicana is our go-to for reliably tasty food made by the nicest people!
