La Esquina - Midtown

For real Mexican food lovers this place is NOT for you. Came here really exited thinking that I would be eating in a warm, cozy home made meal restaurant instead it was one of the worst overpriced fast food experience ever. Prob Taco Bell would have taste better… a Ridiculous small Carnitas “platter” ($20) with very dry meat and weird “salad” on the side that we couldn’t eat after two bites… a “pitcher” of Mezcalita ($42) mostly full of ice and you couldn’t have tree drinks out of it… guac and chips prob same as buying it from the counter on Rite Aide… Very disappointed!!

My father in law and I had dinner together here during my layover for a flight. The service was prompt and we had water and chips, ordered with guacamole and salsa, on the table in short order. I had four tacos and the rice and bean side. The tacos were killer. I had two shrimp, one steak, and one pulled pork. Very satisfied with my choice. The rice and beans were hot and well prepared. Definitely worth a stop if you are looking for good tacos.

Really cute and authentic Mexican restaurant. The menu is small but it's probably so that they can make everything to perfection. I ordered the tortilla soup and an elote which were both out of this world delicious. The soup was bigger than I imagined and loaded with smokey chicken, cheese, avocado, and tortilla chips. The elote was grilled ND seasoned to perfection. There was generous outdoor seating and I believe there was some indoor seating as well.
