La Mexicana Restaurant

It's the little restaurant that grew and grew; it opened more than 30 years ago and now sprawls every which way.

In Short – Breakfast here is a Montrose tradition, and a great bakery keeps the cross-cultural clientele happy at this Mexican favorite. Try the robust huevos rancheros or the migas. The taco de guisado de puerco, a handmade flour tortilla with cubes of pork in red sauce, is fork-tender. Even better: Poached chicken breast meat (in tacos or fresh chicken soup). Spike anything with the vibrant tomatillo sauce.

Delicious food!

by howdyhouston at Citysearch

The service is average, and the food is very good! I always order the fidello and it is a very good portion, and it is very tasty! They have a nice outside area as well. The breakfast is very good as well.

  • Pros: VERY good food
  • Cons: Parking!!!

Very rude and arrogant owners.

by MarkGourmet at Citysearch

This place is sooo bad. I know good food and good service. I also, unfortunately, know bad. The cashier is very rude, and they seem to rest upon their reputation. I think the grand-daughter of the place is the one who told me I was lucky to enjoy their cousine. I will never be back. Never.

Where the Mexican Consulate's staff celebrates birthdays

by chefescoffier at Citysearch

Very clean, festive, attentive service, large portions of great Mexican food at a very good price. I have seen this place frequented by working class Mexican families to nostalgic Mexican millionaires. Everything from chicharonnes to chile relleno. Really good food and nice folks.

  • Pros: Great food!
  • Cons: Parking --- everyone knows its good!
