Food is fantastic. I got a birria torta that was amazing. I loved that the bread was less heavy as compared to other tortas around town....and they have pupusas!

I was craving good Mexican food and they did not disappoint! Got the tacos to try and a quesabirria. The food was fresh and came with multiple hot salsas to eat with. Really delicious. The server was also really sweet! Will be back.

I went to a new restaurant the other night. Well I guess it wasn’t really that new, it’s been around for two or three months now, but I’ve never been there. I didn’t know what I was missing!!! I’m not usually a big fan of Mexican food but I do like Chile Rellenos so I decided to go ahead and try it out. They didn’t have Chile Rellenos on the menu but they have a whole lot of other delicious looking food to choose from. I had no trouble finding something I loved. I ordered the house salad. I know that sounds boring and ordinary but let me tell you, I’ve never seen a salad like this. It was really big and it had all kinds of good stuff on it. It even has little tiny tortilla chips in it. They added a good crunch to the salad. They offer I think three different types of dressing for the salad. I don’t usually use dressing on my salads. I chose the avocado dressing. It was the best thing I’ve ever put in my mouth. I used the whole cup. That’s very unusual for me, like I said I don’t usually like any dressing on my salads. I highly recommend this restaurant, you won’t be disappointing by anything they have to offer.

Stopped to try their breakfast after trying their regular menu and it did not disappoint! This breakfast bagel was delicious. The lady at the window offered me their home made hot cocoa and it was so yummy too! Haven’t had a bad thing there. Every time I go, the ladies at the drive through windows are always so kind and polite. Makes a difference!

La Laguna Mexican Restaurant: Fun, fast, food inside, outside, or to-go. Very clean and lovely decorations. My son found this place while we were going to the Watkinsville area just outside of Athens. It offers a drive-thru window, but inside it's lovely. I'm impressed by how nice and clean they keep the restrooms and in general. I tried a Mexicano style chicken taco that was delicious (on a corn tortilla with cilantro and fresh chopped white onions)! (They also have American style tacos on flour tortillas with lettuce and cheese).Plus, I ordered their Fajita Bowl with all three meats to try (chicken, steak, and shrimp). My son helped me eat my bowl. Everything was nice and fresh. The only item that was not my favorite was the rice-it was good, just not great. My son loved it though. They have ample parking, an outdoor covered patio in front for people with dogs that's lovely. It's conveniently located (next door to a Waffle House) on 441 (Macon Highway). It has an upscale fastfood vibe. They're still waiting for their liquor license for future visits. It serves breakfast items also in a hurry.
