Waitress was very sweet! Our dinner came out quickly. I recommend the fajitas. My daughter ordered the tortilla soup w/chicken but it wasn’t to her liking. The sweet waitress brought her out two tacos instead which she enjoyed!

I was there on a Saturday night from 9 pm til 2 am for the dance and bar night. This is every Saturday Night with a great DJ. The gals behind the bar are the nest. Quick with service and drinks made right. The folks there working and at the place are all nice and some real talkative. If, you like Mexican style music and dance, this is the place to go to in Ponchatoula.

If you are anywhere near this place; be sure to stop in! We stopped in right at 4pm on a Thursday — and instead of eye rolls and little attention by the staff; they seated us immediately, were patient but thorough in our multiple requests and treated us like we were family. The large margarita is legitimately large (2 of us shared it!), the chili rellenos were perfectly cooked with a gooey cheese center and the beans and rice were very authentic tasting! Don’t skip the queso – it’s amazing as well. 5 stars — would stop here again in a heartbeat!!

One of the best Mexican restaurants in the Ponchatoula Hammond area. I am always met with a friendly hostess in the most amazing chips and salsa on every occasion I’ve visited. One of my favorite meals here at like La Catrina Mexican restaurant is the fajitas there cooked just right every time.

On a road trip from North MS to Texas, we stopped in for a bite to eat. We were greeted by the sweetest staff. The chili Rellenos were amazing and the beans didn’t come from a can. Huge margaritas that were spot on. Don’t miss this hidden gem!!

I found this gem in a small town of Ponchatoula, LA off Hwy 55. This is family owned and have been through the hurricanes building back every time better.

Experience was bad, took forever for waiter to take my drink order, he waited till our whole group was there to take food orders instead of doing it we were seated, which resulted in a lot of simple, fast orders sat in the window and got cold waiting for the other meals. The meat in my Taco Salad was cold and tougher than shoe leather. Had there been more time, i would have refused it, but had a meeting to attend! Seated at 5:10 pm , meal arrived at 6:35 pm….then on top of that, mandatory gratuity for 8 or more people for slow service and cold food. Would have confronted manager, but had another obligation that i was late for!!!! NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!! DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!! ALSO……. THE MARGARITA HAD NO ALCOHOL IN IT!!!! I CANNOT GIVE LESS THAN 1 STAR AS WITH NO STARS …NO COMMENTING!¡!!!
