Las Llardas

Delicious! My only complaint would be that their mole enchiladas are only available on the weekends but other than that the food is delicious for a cheap price. Just had their enchiladas verde which taste almost just like mine. They serve big portions as well.

Though their tomatada enchiladas are great, the customer service is not. I had high hopes for this place until I ordered a watermelon drink. I told the waitress I just wanted little sugar. I specifically asked her if it’s already made or if it could be made less sweet. She said they make it after you order it. The drink came super sweet. They rarely put watermelon on it. I complained and she said she could bring me ice. Another waiter said i could have asked for it with no sugar. They wouldn’t replace it for me. Ice didn’t help the sweetness. Many restaurants would have tried to please me. After all, I did ask for little sugar. I bet the drink is already made in those huge glass containers and they don’t care if you ask for little sugar. They might be making up the story of how it’s made on the spot. I didn’t drink it. When I approached the counter to pay, I mentioned to the guy of how the drink rarely has watermelon. He said it’s a premeasured amount used in each drink. I just didn’t like the attitude they have. He could have said, «I’m sorry it wasn’t to your liking. I will not charge you for it.» I paid $ 2.50 for a watered-​down drink full of sugar that I didn’t drink. Bear in mind, this place can get loud if someone plays music on the juke box. Furthermore, a man comes to your table to sell pirated movies. That is wrong!

I really enjoyed this place, good tortas and some great juices on the menu. I’ve been here twice and both times I left completely satisfied with their service and food!

For a while this place was great except for the service. But the food quality has come down. It used to be very Mexico City but there seems to be a growing confusion: they now serve tacos with LETTUCE in them! Such an offense is punishable by jail time in Mexico City. Wait staff is busy gossiping or watching Novelas. You’re better off at an average taco truck in the area.

The service here is awful!
My family and I came here for a nice dinner after a long day & were disappointed.
First off, there was a limited selection of food we could order because half the menu was only available Friday-​Sunday. The chips provided are small for a family of 2+ and when we asked for more the waitress and waiter rudely brought us more food. When we asked for other things they looked at us as if we were bothering them.
The food was decent but the lack of customer service just made the whole experience awful.
Will definitely n o t be coming back!

Guys, I’m Mexican.
Those are my credentials.
I’ve been here for lunch, but mostly for breakfast, and I’ve had to be just Oabout wheelbarrowed out every timebecause I’m so damn full. Let’s start out with the most basic — tostadas are simple, but their green sauce is the perfectly tangy and spicy. Not too mild as in to resemble watery avocado, not too spicy as too ruin your meal’s flavor. It’s great.
Waitresses are very friendly and charming.
Food? Delicious.
Their breakfast menu is delicious. Your choice of Eggs, beans, and tater tots for $ 2-​$ 3. Short stack pancakes for $ 3, breakfast tacos for $ 2.75. Give me that over IHOP, Denny’s, or House of Pies any day of the week.
Lunch…their tortas are delicious. Stick to one. More than that and that’s just plain ol’ gluttony. Don’t be like me and think «Oh, I’ll just add a queca (fried quesadilla) to top it off.» No. It’s delicious, but no, don’t ruin a good experience by having too much food.
As far as the ambient goes… it’s a taqueria. Don’t take your first date there. However, if she wants Mexican food and you take her to some overpriced and overrated Mexican joint like Guadalajara, you deserve everything that’s coming to you. This is a hole in the wall place and that’s what makes it awesome.
They also have karaōke on Friday and Saturday nights.

nondescript strip center, nondescript décor inside. waitresses seemed like they had just been handed some tickets and told to go take some tables. but the HAWAIANA Torta $ 6.49
Marinated pork leg, pineapple chunks,
ham and melted cheese
was awesome-​bread was very fresh, and the sandwich was heated to just the right temperature. spooned some of their spicy salsa on it-​good eating.

The food is great, a taste of Mexico. It has a good range of selection. The only problem is the wait. It takes more then 10 to 15 minutes for the food to be ready. It can be a forever, you will probably starve to death. If you can wait, then you wouldn’t have a problem.

This is definitely a place where you need to be more familiar with the language to order, even though their menu is in English. When I tried to order, the waitress started asking a bunch of questions in Spanish a bit too fast for me to understand. Fortunately I was with a friend who speaks fluent Spanish, otherwise, it would’ve been quite the challenge.
So, obviously the fact that they speak Spanish here lends credence to their authenticity. They have a spicy reddish brown and a not-​so-​spicy tomatillo salsa that they bring out with chips. Both are pretty decent, but not my favorite.
My friend ordered the mole enchiladas, which I did not try, and said they were very good. I had some shredded beef tacos and a fried cheese quesadilla. The tacos were okay, but the quesadilla was a definite winner. Next time I’d get some meat filling in the quesadilla to bring it up a notch. It was so good that it pleasantly surprised my friend, who made fun of me for getting a fried quesadilla. The filling was naturally very cheesy, and it was topped with lettuce and even more crumbly cheese. It looks more like a taco than what most people would expect for a quesadilla. I loved it; it reminded me of the house quesadilla from El Fresh Taco in Katy, RIP.
They serve gigantic glasses of aquas frescas. I always go for the Sandia (watermelon) and loved it here. If you are looking for a change from your average Tex-​Mex, this is a good place to check out!

The worst mexican breakfast i ever had the waitress was not help full at all
I Had the guevos divorsiados and the red sauce was mole sauce and the chilaquiles was hard chips and green sauce? any where else is chips and green salsa… that was funny as hell… oh i almost forgot they serve eggs w tater tots?
that’s just lazy

I love their tortas. Especially la torta cubana. The only reason I don’t give them 5 stars is because their salsas are kind of weird tasting to my taste buds and salsa is very important to me… it completes the meal I think and these ones don’t for me personally

The worst fajita tacos I have ever had. They had no flavor. Can’t speak for the rest of the food.

the service was atrocious, i mean no fair warning that they were all out of the weekend menu items, so when we ordered them the waitress was rude and unapologetic. had to improvise what we wanted. I had the cubana, which was meh, ive had better in LA and SJ and being from DF i noticed some key ingredients missing. when asked for a box, the waitress brought a super small box, almost as if she was joking since she brought us our food and knew the size of each item. the portions are large and filling, but with mediocre food and sub par service i dont think id be going back to this place again.

Open 24hrs! Very authentic Mexican food, although the menu is limited. Our waiter was pretty slow in bringing what we requested, but at least he came by every couple of minutes. You have a choice between Mexican bottled Coke or Coke can. The tortilla chips are pretty bland and cold. I’ll give it a second chance another time, maybe the second round will be better!

Had lunch today at this place and can’t wait to go back to try their other menu items.
Had the «torta chilanga» which is a sandwich consisting of ham, carne asada, chorizo, melted cheese and avocado. Yum! Everything just melts in your mouth. Service was good for being lunch time there wasn’t a whole lot of people.

This place is FAN-​TAS-​TIC! Another Mexican place that my husband and all his Mexican friends approve of. And about that whole Mexican thing, go in here with your best Spanish-​speaking non-​douche-​bag friend. Take it from this white girl, these waitresses don’t want to bother with people who can’t pronounce menu items and ask questions about every menu item. They also would prefer communicate in Spanish, and why the hell not? It’s supposed to be authentic, right? Can’t take a hint, folks? The menu is first in Spanish, then English. The service in here isn’t supposed to be great. They bring you a large glass of horchata for a reason: they aren’t going to be coming back to give refills. It’s a no frills kinda place.
The tortas here are the best in the city. My dining companions (who are always the same 4 people and we come here at least once a month) always get the Cubana torta. I get a meat combination torta with beef milenesa and fajita chicken. They put refried beans, avocado, tomato, cheese, and your choice of 2 meats between soft, fresh mexican bread, and then lightly grill the whole thing. I slather on the spicy red sauce, and I have been known to request that this be my last meal on earth. With a normal sandwich, one usually puts the sandwich back on the plate in between bites… not with this torta. I never put the thing down. In fact, it’s a running joke that I’m not to be disturbed after my torta arrives, because I am known to be incredibly curt in conversation in order to get back to my torta.

I looked over the reviews for this place and decided to give it a shot. 2 to 1 odds made me think it was probably a pretty decent place. I was wrong. The food is not good. The fajita torta is lacking and I can find a better one just across the street at Cancun. The salsa was spicy but that was it, just hot (spicy) no actual flavor to speak of. I will not go back here as I was not impressed at all.

In my eyes Mexican food places thrive or die based upon the degree of taste/​spicy-​ness of their salsas. If they are bland you can almost guaranttee the food wont be too great.
Las Llardas had good chips, good & spicy salsa, good horchata (rice water) good prices, and great food. I had the milanesa plate that came with your choice of corn or flour tortillas, rice, beans, lettuce, tomato, and a couple slices of avocado. My buddies got the yards of beer which almost made it feel like being at an all inclusive resort in Cancun but the prices were still cheap and awesome.
I think the restaurant and the bar next door did a little M&A and tore down one of the walls so it could be your one stop shop for typical Mexican things to do. Drink and Eat. The bar provides some entertainment and laughs with awesomely awful music to go along with whatever soccer game is currently on TV.
The only pitfall, which isnt really one at all, is that this place is situated in the heart of where most delicious Mexican food restaurants reside. Making it difficult to come back here too often because of the wide variety of places to choose from. 4 stars none-​the-​less.

imagine that your mouth is on fire from really spicy, delicious salsa. so you take a sip of an ice cold, refreshing glass of the most burning hot, insanely spicy michelada on the planet… and then your whole face explodes.
but you dont stop. you do it over, and over again, because it’s so delicious, so intensely flavorful, that for this particular beverage, exploding face syndrome is but a mere nuisance, well worth suffering through.
welcome to (bienvenidos a?) las llardas.
excellent, real mexican food and yard long glasses of beer; for cheap. 6 dollars for 3 feet of beer? thats almost 2 dollars per foot of beer! you cant beat that with… a yard stick!
the restaurant is situated in a typical, seedy strip mall across from an atypical looking whataburger. its easy to miss, so watch closely. if youre inside the loop, its a bit of a schlep, but the food really is outstanding. the enchiladas en mole were rich and flavorful, and stuffed with spicy chicken. the fried quesadillas are out of this world. the michelada is a must try, but be warned, it is the spiciest drink that exists on the planet.
