In one month this place dropped off my favorites list. They quit making the breakfast omelette that was great.
I ordered the shrimp burrito, what a mistake. Small not good quality shrimp! The filling isn’t good and they don’t fry their tortilla crispy at all, just soft. This sucks for a shrimp burrito,
December….This is a great breakfast option and seen plenty of locals walking in for lunch. The omelettes are enormous and delicious, no cheap chef bs here! The Guaymas Omelette is something I’d recommend driving an hour for.
Nice server and calm inside. Their salsa is delicious too

The best kept secret if you want a steak. This is the best Mexican food I’ve had in North County. I judge Mexican food starting with the rice and beans, and theirs is exceptional. It’s a diner style environment, so if you’re looking for hipster Mexican get on down the road. Otherwise this is the place.

My husband and I enjoyed our scrumptious dinner very much. He had two beers while I enjoyed a sparkling sangria soda. The service was off-the-hook! We certainly recommend that anyone in the area try to dine at this restaurant! Thank you, Donna and Eric

My best friend and I wanted to try something new, and we found that La Mexicana was a walkable distance to us. I’m not sure why we haven’t tried it before, but the food here is GOOD. Hot and fresh, I’d usually take a picture before eating, but it was so good I couldn’t help but start eating before I took the picture. There was more food before my best friend and I started. We ordered the platter for dinner (around $25-29). Sharing it was not an issue whatsoever. We couldn’t finish it by the end. The proportions are Costco levels, which make it so good for the price. Could realistically feed three people in my opinion, unless you were really hungry. The waiters and people inside were so kind, and we didn’t even have to try to ask them anything. They were always generous and helping. The atmosphere feels really inviting, something cozy and comfortable for a enjoyable experience. Feels like you’re walking into a family restaurant. Overall, if you’re on a budget, order the platter and share. You won’t regret it! 😀

Was craving some pozole and i have to say, hands down this hit the spot!! It was full of flavor, had plenty of meat, and on top of that the service was amazing. I was not expecting to be blown away by the food, chips and salsa, and friendly service. Will be back soon!

I love menudo and this is the spot for it!
The service was excellent as the waiter made us feel very welcome and was good with kids. Being a family of five it’s always nice to go to places where the people interact with our kids as much as with us.
I would have given five stars but my wife didn’t rave about her food. I recommend the tripe soup.

Ate lunch there today! Food was good until I found a fingernail in my refried beans!! Complained but was offered no apology or complimentary lunch! Probably won’t be going back

Great food with outdated decor. Chips and salsa are the bomb. Utilizing the lunch menu is always a financially sound decision.
This was the 2-tostada plate. Awesome!!

We stopped for breakfast and we’re good we did. The chilaquiles were amazing: crispy tortilla chunks, perfectly cooked beans, eggs lightly scrambled into the mixture, topped with ranchero sauce and cheese. We also ordered the pozole, which arrived in a huge bowl with a side of small tostadas and beans with cabbage, cilantro, and onions to put in the soup. The spot is cozy, a little retro, and clean. Definitely a must visit, especially for breakfast.
