La Mexicana

This is an AMAZING Mexican Restaurant, this is truly a hidden Baton Rouge gem and this is just as good as superiors or tio javis, but is half the COST!

We tried shredded beef, shredded pork, chicken, and ground beef tacos. They were so good!! Our favorite was definitely the shredded beef and pork. You have an option for either corn or flour tortilla as well. It’s a great hole in the wall place, lots of diners were there solo during the time we went. The servers are very sweet and kind. We’ll be back almost every week!

Fantastic hole in the wall off Siegen. Authentic Mexican food to me at least. The prices are quite reasonable, the atmosphere isn't all that great but the food was fantastic! Fresh avocado with 2 of our 3 meals, incredible horchata, great meals. The chips and salsa are fairly plain, but so many sauces are available to spice them up. We all were very impressed with this place! I enjoyed the Mexican meat plate weekend special, and the table enjoyed Mexican combo plate, and burritos. Also, pickled onions provided on the table.

I am giving this place 5 starts. a small hole in the wall with huge flavor.

I was in Baton Rouge for a business conference, I stumbled upon this place. Wow, just wow. Grocery store at front, a decent size restaurant at back. Prices are so low, you can go as a family and spend less than $80 or so.

First the chips and Salsa along with onion picket and two big bottles of red spicy sauce and green Jalapeno sauce. They are so effing awesome. I downed a Carona with the chips, salsa, onion pickle and those delicious sauce.

I ordered a chicken burrito. Rice, beans, chicken and all other flavors folded into a nice size burrito and wrapped perfectly. Chicke was perfectly cooked, tasted delicious. Add those green or red sauce to it for elevated experience.

I ordered churros for desert, it was piping hot, crispy and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar. Perfect for an afternoon pick me up.

So I had a Corona, Chicken Burrito, Churros, paid $16.73+ taxes. It was worth every pennny for me.

Service was great. Place was clean, I would highly recommend this place if you happen to visit Baton Rouge.

The owner was nice and friendly, the waitress at the bar was not as welcoming. The sauces had no flavor. I got one pork, chicken and steak and the meat was not very discernible. I was expecting my sautéed onions to be inside the tacos. My to go plate wasn't very sturdy. It kind of reminded me of taking an aluminum foil covered leftovers plate from someone's house.
