La Taqueria

I have this a 5 star, based on the whole experience not just the food. The food was very good, especially the fish tacos, but could easily be a 4 out of 5. What was great was happy hour. Great deals on quality food and drink, and super nice, efficient, friendly staff. I would absolutely go back, especially for happy hour!

Great place for some great tacos We have dined here several times now, and as of late, for the Happy Hour menu. Tacos are big and filling and priced well. They are well presented and put together. We had the Fish, Cauliflower, Carnita and Bean tacos, delightful. The Guacamole and chips are yummy too, the chips are nice and crunchy with the right amount of seasoning. Definitely recommend. It's our favorite place for tacos any day of the week

Amazing menu, whether you want to drop in for a quick snack or come in for a big meal! Delicious, fast, with a great happy hour! There are many veg and vegan options and the food is so fresh and tasty. The people are friendly and the place is clean. Even when it's super busy! Thanks La Taqueria!

In and out quick for our first try at La Taqueria. The space is pretty cool with the exposed beams and venting overhead, the bar and kitchen being in the middle of the restaurant is also nice. Staff were super friendly and pleasant especially our server. My daughter and I had a taco each, she had the al pastor and I the carnitas, both on corn tortillas. I love that they used both a yellow and a blue corn tortillas and were warmed nice and soft but cooked. The carnitas were quite nice. Nice balance of flavours although as a personal preference I wanted a little more crackling/fat to lean meat ratio. All three hot saucesnot pictured were their own flavour profiles and heat levels so that was A+. The pastor for my daughter, she said was “ok”, she rates it a 3.5 stars as she was looking for that nicely shaven/char from the meat that’s cooked nicely on the spit and she feels she didn’t get that. She’s had a lot of Al Pastor at different taco stands in Mexico last year, so I feel it’s a fair opinion. The pineapple salsa was a bit much for her in terms of ratio with the meat so she took some off which I ate and I quite liked them actually. Cannot wait to come back to try everything.

We came here recently for the first time. Ordered four kinds of tacos, the fish baja, atun, mole, and campechano. The fish baja was delicious, atun seared tuna was also great. I tried the campechano because it was “todays special” and also looked great on the featured picture that they have next to the cashier. I was utterly disappointed with the campechano because when it arrived at the table, looked NOTHING like what the picture by the cashier showed. It tasted overly sour, and there was no cilantro. We also tried their churro and they were fantastic. Overall everything was good EXCEPT for the campechano……

Had a nice time with my friends here, I thought the price is a bit high until I saw each taco is stuffed. But I’ve been there twice, they keep telling me that they don’t have prawn taco. The dining table on the left side was narrow and noisy, and had a strong cooking smells.

The worst burrito I have tried ever. I was suggested from front service crispy chicken. I was excited but first bite gave a me weird taste. There was tooooo much sour sauce with cabbage and carrot not lettuce visible. It was not eatable at all. It did not like a burrito but crab. I called them twice to complain but no answer. Really Disappointing

I would like to start by saying that I support small business and I do not like giving poor reviews, but I was not pleased with the quality tonight. The quesadilla con frijoles y queso tasted like cheddar cheese and mush. There was no freshness to it. The taco al pastor was dry. The mole taco tasted really weird, and overly sweet. None of the three had any heat to them; no salsa verde/roja, and no limes were provided. My partner was born in Mexico, and I've been blessed to eat his mother's cooking - and I have not yet found anything comparable here in Victoria

Place was good and clean. But food was not the best. I order nachos and a yam and enfrijolada taco. First of all corn tortillas were cold, and when they are cold they break. Yam was extra oily, so wasn't as good as expected. Nachos were really good. The portions are very generous and I think the price is fair, but taste in food was really disappointed. But service was pretty good to.

I feel bad leaving a 1star review but the food was bad, the wait was long and it was over $70 for 4 tacos and a burrito and 2 drinks. As you can see in the picture the tacos were so soggy they crumbled under their own weight. Making them almost inedible, I just didn’t want to waste the money I just spent.The burrito wasn’t really a burrito but more of a salad wrap with chicken tenders. Overall I found the food lacking in flavour. Sorry guys, I hope you do better next time, expected more from one of the taco places in Vic.
