Would go agian because the food was amazing. I had the chicken soup, burrito de pollo, and mixed fajitas. Chicken soup was okay tasted like chili from Wendy’s. Burrito de pollo was very good and testy with a bit of spiciness. Mixed fajitas was good aswell. Everything was cooked well with alot of sauce. We walked in and saw the sign we need to wait to be seated but the workers didnt even acknowledge us. When i asked how long they kept on saying couple minutes but ended up being about 30 minutes. We placed the order immediately after being seated and the food took about another 25 minutes. The food was decently priced. Overall would definitely recommend because of how good the food is but the service could be much better.

One of my favorite fish taco joints along the NE coast. I ordered the steak, fish, and shrimp tacos. The shrimp and fish tacos were amazing. We also ordered the Mole Chicken Enchiladas, and nachos. Enchiladas were okay, and nachos were good. Highly recommended for the fish and shrimp tacos . Staff was friendly.

Staff is super nice, but slow. Very long wait to sit even though table was ready. Hour to be served but they warned us prior to sitting. Food was OK, nothing special but nit bad. Can do better.

Go for the lunch special if you can. The Diablo Wings could compete with the Chegg, food is very good but expensive.

Portion sizes are great, but past that this is an average Mexican restarant. The food is ok, but not stellar. Parking behind the building is also limited. Overall an average meal at an average place for an ever so slightly higher than expected price.

I was honored to be part of the 15th anniversary celebration for Echoes of LBI magazine. The folks at la Bamba were very accommodating hosts. Our large comfortable dining room was colorful and nicely decorated. The food was delicious! I particularly enjoyed the fish tacos. We were served with smiles!
