If you’re looking for flashy décor or a trendy dining room, this isn’t that kind of place—and that’s exactly why La Maria Taqueria is special. Tucked away in a modest strip mall, this small taco shop delivers something far more important than atmosphere: authenticity.
The moment I walked in, it was clear this was a real taqueria. No frills, no gimmicks—just the unmistakable feel of a traditional taco shop focused on doing one thing extremely well. And then there were the birria tacos.
Hands down, these were the best birria tacos I’ve had anywhere in the world. The meat was incredibly tender, deeply flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. Each bite was rich without being overwhelming, and the tortillas were crisped just right. Dipped into the consommé, the tacos reached another level entirely—savory, comforting, and unforgettable.
This is the kind of place you tell friends about quietly, almost reluctantly, because you want to keep it your own secret. La Maria Taqueria proves that amazing food doesn’t need hype or polish—just tradition, care, and serious skill in the kitchen.
If you appreciate authentic Mexican food and are chasing the perfect birria taco, this spot is absolutely worth seeking out.

I stopped by last night for dinner with one particular menu item in mind… It was the pozole de puerco! I have had people in general rave about pozole and folks in the reviews were raving about it too so I wanted to give it a shot. I have actually passed by this restaurant a ton and have wanted to try the pozole but this was mostly during the summer and I am usually not craving something warm when it is hot out. However, with the cooler temperatures, something hot is just what I was needing this weekend!
You get a generous amount of pozole with two tostadas, lettuce, raw onions, avocado and some “mild” salsa. I say “mild” because it still had a good bit of heat to it! I love some tostadas and these were excellent. The pozole was hardy and they give you a fair amount of meat too. I thought it was good but it might just not be my style of soup. However, I still finished the whole bowl so there’s that. I have also been recommended the tacos here so if I am in the area again, I will probably try those next time!

This place is actually pretty good for the quality of meat they use. The Birria tacos were my favorite. The soup of the Birria was on point. The al pastor tacos were also good, but could be better. The steak tacos or carne asada were okay—nothing special! They need better steak and seasoning for the steak tacos. Service was excellent, and the place looked nice. I will definitely come back and try other stuff.

We tried a Mexican restaurant called La Maria Taqueria in Lakeland, MN a couple of days ago. We all had burritos because they sounded good. They were all fantastic, very large, and filled with the meat of your choice, refried beans, rice, lettuce, pico, and guacamole.
The people were very friendly and nice, and the food was ready in a few minutes. We had a to go order. We are definitely going there again soon.

Good Horchata, quesadillas, tacos, and sandwich. The name rhymes, even better. Did takeout, didn’t take long. Food made fresh. More like real Mexican than Tex mex (so, better than average).

I’ve lived in SoCal so believe me when I say their tamales will make you want to cry with joy. Their birria will make you think you’ve transcended the material realm altogether and exist in a new plane of deliciousness. It’ll be messy, but 12/10 worth it.

Just finished a Torta via Door Dash and it was amazing! My coworker had been telling me how I need to check this place out and it didn’t disappoint. Do yourself a favor and go try it out ❤️
