Jessica Bolanos
The tacos are pretty good, I would recommend them. On the small side but still tasty. The cheesabrirria tacos are great. So are the Aguas Frescas. The prices are ridiculously though. Expect to spend at least $20 and closer to $30 for one person, and that’s not including any alcohol beverages. I don’t think the portions are sufficient for the prices. Do not order the elote! $8 for this sad tiny cup is robbery. Great service and nice ambiance though!

Hernan Flores
Food is great but quite pricey in my opinion. $17 for an average size torta is just too much for me. Nonetheless everyone was friendly and helpful. Plenty of seating available and a cool looking place. Of course parking is tricky since it’s downtown unless you pay or are able to find street parking.

Miguel Castro
Tacos are ok, shrimp ceviche was really good actually. Be careful with the salsas, they can be really hot. The street corn was a great option although a little overpriced. Cantina next door is a great place to have a couple of drinks and tacos. The fact that this establishment closes at 2 am makes it really packed at night

Pedro Antonio Sanchez Ruiz
Perfect option for after party tacos!!! They are open until late night… delicious ingredients, good meats (birria and asada were the top choices for me) and condiments (just ask before for the sauces, some of them could result a bit spicy if you are not used to them). The street corn on the cup, simply outrageous, Next level flavor with the corn infused in Poblano pepper juice!!

Unassuming place from the outside but relaxed on the inside. Service is a little confusing when trying to order due to the language barrier and the condiments broken out separately but the food is authentic and great.

The first time I came to this place I LOVED IT! I needed good Mexican food, and haven’t really found any since moving here from Cali. My Mexican friends came to visit me, and they heard of La Calle, so we decided to give it a try. I ordered elote, and the birria with a tequila flight. We all gave this place a thumbs up!

Nayeli Mendez
Great location, by downtown. First time here since Im from out of town and I loved it. Love the vibes, how authentic the inside of the restaurant is. The menu was real easy to read and meals to choose from. The tacos were delicious. Staff were nice and friendly when ordering food. Went over to the bar side for a few drinks and had a great service from the bartender named Poncho. Definitely recommend, will return whenever I’m back in town.
