It's a walk up counter and you sit in the food court, but the food is legit. The tamales are delicious, especially if you like spicy. The medium salsa was probably more of a "hot" by Midwest standards.
I wouldn't say this is a "great" taco place or anything, but for a kiosk on a thoroughfare of working folks during lunch hour, its not bad. Good portions, decent quality, average prices...decent stop for a workday lunch.
Honestly the best tamales in the twin cities. I know they have other food, but as far as I'm concerned, they only serve amazing pork, chicken and (ridiculously good) sweet corn tamales. Make sure to buy a pack of frozen ones for later!
I keep wanting to branch out on their menu, but I can't resist the tamales. My favorites are the sweet corn and the green Oaxaca. Half price on the last Tuesday of the month--best deal in downtown.
This place is literally a hole in the wall serving up excellent tamales and daily specials. Try the Sweet Corn and Chicken tamales. You will not be disappointed. One of the better cheap lunch spots in Downtown Minneapolis.
Overall, this La Loma is really good! I come here at least 3 days out of the work week for vegan tacos and tamales. Both the pinto and black beans are flavorful, but can be too salty sometimes. The heavier set woman with thinly drawn eyebrows and a natural mean mug facial expression WILL cheat you o
Great, simple food. Try tamales or chilaquiles (pictured).
It is hard to get a 5 star rating from me but I like this food so much I even get them frozen in the store to eat at home. Yep. It is that good. Staff is friendly at this location. To note, this is a little whole on the wall place and lines can be down the hall. Should tell you that they are do
The Red Oaxaca are some of my favorite tamales. This place is a hidden gem. If you want something tasty and you are downtown in the skyway. I would highly recommend these tamales!!!
My only complaint is that this place can be a little bit difficult to find. It is in the lower level of the Northstar building. I would recommend getting to this place before 12:30, because they do run out of certain kinds of tamales (you'll be left with vegetable only).
Chilaquiles and the tamales are the best. Service is quick. Make sure you know what you're going to order if you go over the lunch hour. The employees push you through quick!
Best Mexican food - absolutely my favorite place. I wish this location had lunch specials, but otherwise they're awesome.
La Loma continues to be one of my favorite downtown lunch spots. Everything is good but I enjoy the chilaquiles & tamales the most!
I've been coming here for as long as I could remember, and this place never disappoints! Although the tacos and burritos are great, I absolutely love the carne asada tortas!
The workers are very friendly and the food is good. The tamales are excellent, especially the spicy ones wrapped in banana leaves.
Solid choice for Mexican food downtown, great quality food. I wish every Tuesday was tamale Tuesday but it's not anymore 😬
