The food is amazing and the staff treats you like an old friend. I'm definitely going to visit as often as possible.

I've been on the hunt for a local taco shop that is actually opened during the day. Let's be real, you know them illegal pop ups that open at 9pm are the best. Well, I wanted to find a place that matched that. So through my homies' recommendation, I stumbled across La Lucha. I've driven by this intersection thousands of times but never actually went into this little unassuming strip mall. But I'm so glad I did. I love love love that they have a huge menu on the window so that I can take my time ordering without feeling rushed. Why can't more places do this for people like me who has to see all of my options before deciding?!?!?! Love this!!! Y'all their week day specials are legit. I ordered 10 of their taco Tuesday specials. $1.50 per street tacos. So I of course got 10 carne asada tacos cuz... I was hungry when I ordered. (And no... I didn't finish it). The tacos were bomb. And their yellow looking salsa was bomb. The service was fast, friendly, and homie didn't even cringe when I ordered my meal with the worst white American accent. The food is amazing. The place is soooooo clean. Check this spot out!

Come for the chill and unique Ambiance: friend saw this on social media and suggested the place. Before coming i was hoping to see someone where the wrestling mask while serving us due to the resturaunt name. When i got there it was the cool lalucha decor that was unique and gave that lalucha vibes and it helped they had one of the TV playing the lucha- wrestling match. Per host/server its to hot with the mask on and hard to see. Food: Amazing!! Soo good and lots meat on the street tacos. The sauce was bomb and has a kick to it. We also ordered a breakfast burrito in the evening and though it wasn't on served in the evening they accommodated us letting us know it jus may take awhile to prepare. I ordered everything that was recommended to me try in regards to tacos. We had someone with dietary restrictions and couldnt eat meat and so not a lot of veggie option but what do you expect its LALUCHA i mean the theme is wrestling and of course there is a majority of meat choices versus veggies! There was the papas tacos and chile rilleno that was recommended. We went with the papas tacos instead bc my friend wasnt sure if she was able to have eggs. Food was delicious!!

Love La Lucha for their authentic tacos, creamy green salsa and grandma-style mole! Hole in the wall vibes with clean dining room, fun lucha libre decor, and excellent customer service! This is our go to dinner spot at least every other week.

We were craving a new Mexican restaurant in the area and this was the first one that popped up. I'm always more inclined to try newer, non-franchised restaurants so this was a perfect one to try. Here's what we ordered: **Nachos Libre w/ Asada: This dish looked very good but it wasn't. The nachos itself seemed homemade and were good but everything else wasn't. The cheese and beans they used tasted like it came from a can which ruined the whole dish. There was a light coating of onions and cilantro and I didn't see any jalapenos. Not recommended. (1/5) **Pastor Street Tacos: The first thing I always notice for pastor at other restaurants is how salty it is but this particular one wasn't. The seasoning was on point too and it was delicious! Also, they were very generous with the meat. (5/5) **Tacos De Papa: I'm not a huge fan of potato tacos but my GF is. I trust her taste and she absolutely loved it! (5/5) **Jamaica: Not the best but not the worst we've had. The flavor was a bit weak but the tart flavor was there. Still refreshing though. (3.5/5) When we arrived, there was one big party seated already and the place filled up to about half capacity while the time we were there. The whole time, there was only one guy front of house and did a really spectacular job out there. He made sure to visit every table to deliver the best service possible. Place was really clean and the ambiance was nice. Besides the nachos, everything else was out of the park. We saw a sign that promoted $1 tacos on Tuesdays so we'll definitely be back because the tacos were pretty good.

We came here on a Wednesday night and had the whole place to ourselves. The guy who helped us was super kind and recommended the naranja/maracuya agua. It was sooooo good. It was so refreshing and sweet. We ordered tacos de papa and two tacos de cochinita pibil. The salsa they gave us was so good too. Everything was so flavorful. Everything was so delicious. Will definitely be coming back to try more items on the menu.

4 stars cuz I enjoyed the taco El Santo quite a bit ==== $13 ish with tax Taco El Santo $5ish I asked for light chipotle ranch and it was great! My fav of the things I ordered! Flavorful with the flour tortilla, melted cheddar?, Cotiija cheese, small bacon bits, avocado, and chipotle ranch. You can request meat at an extra charge, but I opted for none. I am surprised that the bacon bits that come with this are teeny tiny lol so don't expect chunks. But that's ok for me cuz I don't eat bacon. Kinda small, but full of flavor. Cochinita pibil taco $5ish Better than the street tacos, but also very oily. Street tacos - chicken Second fav. Pretty moist with larger chunks, marinade wasn't bad - carne asada First fav. Not super tender, but decent flavor compared to other places - Al pastor Eh kinda dry, don't like this. Orange sauce Unique and has a bit of a kick. Ask for multiples of these! Green sauce is whatever. Waited 20some min for Togo which is pretty long, but it was also taco Tuesday..I'd call in my order next time. Service The girl was full on working ever since I went and placed my order. Props to her for packing everything, giving ppl their orders, cleaning up, making sure ppl were being taken care of.
