La Reyna

A taste of authentic Mexican food. You know it's authentic when most of the clientele is also Mexican. It has a small tienda attached, but of course is a bit overpriced. The carne asada burrito with everything inside is simply a weekly must-have. It is so big, I eat half for lunch, half for dinner. For that matter, carne asada anything is good. Their green salsa is addicting and their red salsa will leave you clawing the bathroom walls the next day. Ambience is a bit sketch, with a filthy entry door, but the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable.

Authentic Mexican food! I really enjoy eating here, reminds me of my roots! Definitely worth the try!

Nutshell: Simple, straightforward food, good prices. Worth a stop in.This place is very simple. Walk in through the market and grab a seat to your right. The menu is pretty straight forward as well. I went with a burrito con pollo with a side of frijoles (beans). It may have taken all of 10 minutes for my food to come out. The burrito was hefty and full of goodness. The chicken was succulent and had a good flavor. There was rice, beans, lettuce, tomato, and onion stuffed in there. All in a good proportion and not one ingredient overtaking the other. The only downside was the tortilla split in a few places, so towards the end I was doing that "hang in there" hold technique. The refried beans were ah-mazing. I don't know why, but they were. Simple and amazing. The total ran just under $9. For the quality and quantity of food, I think it's fair. I walked in hungry, but I didn't leave that way. When you're done, you head up to the cashier between the market and seating area. There wasn't a lot of interaction with the employees, but they were friendly enough. The only reasons this wasn't a 5 star review, is that almost everything is a la carte and there were no prices that I saw on the menu (I don't like surprises). I'd recommend La Reyna Taqueria for tasty, simple fare.

I had the steak taco (small but delicious - I should have gotten 3), and a chicken burrito (it could take me 3 days to eat it all and I would never be hungry. But it's too good so I'll finish it tonight).Keep in mind La Reynard is not a restaurant. When you pull into the parking lot following Yelp directions, you will see a very nice large modern building that looks like a restaurant. That's a Bakery. That's not La Reyna.La Reyna is a food van across the parking lot from the building and near the street. At 7:30 pm on Saturday there were 3 beautiful women inside having fun. One answered my questions and took my order right away. She even asked me if I like cilantro - which I do. But I know some don't. Being a Gringo, I am not a connoisseur of Mexican food. But as far as I'm concerned the food is great.

La reyna is a small local Mexican market with a restaurant off to the side. It is 100% authentic Mexican food. No TEX MEX. I have had plenty of items on their menu from their carnitas, pastor, carne asada tacos, burritos, sopes, caldo de res, and flautas. I have enjoyed every last meal here except their tamales. Their tamales were the worst. They were dry, and had bones in them. This is the only reason I'm giving them a 4.If you're looking for a nice date night restaurant, this isn't it. Just not very appealing. But their food is great!

The experience that I had at La Reyna was pretty middle of the road. The only genuinely negative comment I have is that the elote en vaso was made with canned corn (which isn't great to begin with) but they didn't drain it so it was sopping wet (pictured). The carnitas were fine but not seasoned well or fried enough for my liking. I like my carnitas crispy and flavorful and Tacos Los Hermanos is the place to find that. The pastor tasted like a sloppy joe which is not great lol. The pastor at Los Hermanos is also much better. The pollo was fine and flavored well but a little dry. I wish I had taken a photo of the "gordita" which really was more like an open faced empanada. It has cheese in it? They also don't make their tortillas fresh which is a huge bummer. Nothing was terrible but it was definitely a much more mediocre experience than the reviews hyped me up for.

Talk about a hole in wall Mexican restaurant, located inside a Mexican grocery store. Quiet, no frills but clean and friendly wait staff. Menu items are few but good. Don't wait for chip and salsa, beverages are served from cans or glass bottles or cans from the store. You may be surprised like was (skeptical). I had the barbacoba De Cabeza tacos (head meat) with onions and cilantro. The wife had chicken enchiladas with green sauce with rice and beans. Good flavor

I had tacos, 1 carnitas, 1 barbacoa, & 1 chorizo. All delicious. My husband had a giant asada burrito. The salsas were delicious. Everything was authentic, fresh, delicious, and very good value. We wouldn't change a single thing. Also, of note, an older review states it is in a food truck, that is no longer the case. However, you can only enter through the attached grocery mart.

The 21st street and Garrnet location rocks! I have been going to this trailer for over 10 years and they have the best street tacos in town The pollo are killer and the other meats are great too. They lay them open face and pile the meat and stuff on to perfection. Tell them to put Caso and avocado on top.

So our favorite taco truck, 'Taqueria La Casita' moved and we can't find it. We decided to try this place out as a replacement for street tacos. Their menu prices aren't bad at all, but we were charged $53 for our dinner. $30 for tacos, & apparently $23 for a side of rice and beans, and 3 drinks. They weren't friendly. But NONE of this was an issue. I repeat, I was HAPPY to pay $53 for tacos and drinks. However, there was a long hair intertwined in my tacos through the meat and other toppings. I honestly don't even care if people are rude when I get my food bc I'm not paying for your kindness when all I want is some street tacos. But the HAIR.. I cannot. I will not go back ever.
