Description

Bold, inventive Mexican with standout tacos and a 22-salsa bar (including peanut and sesame varieties) makes this small, well-located spot a local favorite. Dishes shine — from corn‑flour quesadillas to flavorful rice — and outdoor terrace and bar seating add charm. Service can be inconsistent, with occasional slow or incorrect orders, but for adventurous flavors, a lively college-town vibe and solid takeout options, it’s worth a stop.

Great fast friendly service. Tacos were unique and quite delicious. Nice small place with an outdoor dining terrace behind. Verry interesting salsa bar that should hold something for any kind of pallet. We will definitely go back when in the area.

Eat all the food! I originally wanted to eat some pub food with a friend when we saw that this joint shone like the golden church to tacos that it is. You have 22 Salsas that you can help yourself, but this is just dressing for something else amazing food. I went with the Quesadillas that went against my heart felt passion for tacos, but there was a reason. A year ago when I visited Cancun, my family held in this little restaurant and they had Queensadillas. Generally, I don't do well with flour tortillas, so Queensadillas are usually from my list. But these were made with corn flour. It was a crispy, teig-like shell with amazing fillings in it. La Santisima is the first U.S. restaurant in which I was not only the Quesadillas in the same way, but it is even better. It's a college city feeling, and there's a homeless home nearby, but these are all the improvements for me. I wouldn't call it family-friendly, but it's definitely a meeting point with friends or appointments. If I travel within a hundred miles from this restaurant, I make the way to stop by and get some tacos!

Outstanding food, including some very interesting choices. The salsa bar is very good as well. Service at this location is usually poor. I've been left off hook waiting to place a to go order for 15 minutes twice. In person service is also lacking typically. That said the food has been outstanding every visit.

Enjoyed the salsa bar, of course. They had salsas I'd never seen before, like peanut and sesame. While I personally didn't like all of them, they were nonetheless executed beautifully with well balanced flavors and heat levels. Absolutely a beautiful menu with many original ideas and recipes, a few of which I've never seen and I'm from AZ. Very friendly staff, great location. Seems that this business seeks to give guests a legitimate experience. :
