If they like spicy, order the green spicy salsa. it's not on me yet, but it's fantastic. I also order the chili verde and the gay are also fantastic.
I used to dine here when it was called Old Mexico. Not much has changed since then, except for the addition of more karaoke. The salsa is still not top-tier, though.
Delicious Mexican food! The loaded nachos were fantastic! Nick was an excellent server and managed our large party wonderfully!
I've never been invited to do the La Bamba before! The menu is amazing, and the food tastes incredible!
Nestled in a vibrant locale, this restaurant showcases a blend of family-friendly charm and a lively atmosphere. Diners have enjoyed the attentive service and the ability to accommodate large groups with ease. With highlights including delectable queso blanco and generous burritos, many appreciate the quick service and the convenient stop for travelers. However, experiences vary, with some lamenting a lack of essential Mexican staples like chorizo and margaritas that fail to impress. Despite occasional hiccups like missing items and order inaccuracies, the establishment maintains a loyal following, indicative of its potential amidst mixed reviews.

Consistently great! In my opinion, this is the best Mexican restaurant in town. The food is delicious and satisfying.
Always good food. Burrito la Bamba is a meal on its own. Filled with your choice of meat, plus rice and beans in the tortilla. Like that they include some chips and salsa with orders.
I wouldn’t order from this restaurant again. Both of my dishes had very little meat, and the flavor was disappointing. It definitely wasn’t worth the $40 I spent.
I had a very disappointing experience at La Bamba Mexican. My order arrived an hour late, and when it did, it was completely wrong. I went to the restaurant in person to try and fix the issue, but the staff were unhelpful. The place was crowded with karaoke, but that doesn’t justify the mistakes. It’s not DoorDash’s fault if the wrong order is given to the delivery driver. If the restaurant is too busy to manage online orders properly, they shouldn’t accept them in the first place. It’s as simple as that.

If you like spicy, order the green spicy salsa. It?s not on the me yet, but it?s fantastic. I also order the chili verde and the pork tamales are also fantastic.
Absolutely fantastic restaurant . Cute atmosphere with a homey, family feel to it . The server was very knowledgeable about the menu, offered suggestions , and had a lot of positive things to say about the working environment and the family running it . Ihad the chance to meet the owners and they were very personable and fun to chat with. Would 100% recommend this place !
My first complaint is that when I go to a Mexican restaurant, it?s an absolute must that they have a good tasting margarita, which they certainly did not. Secondly, I travel all over the country regularly and have never been to a Mexican restaurant thatdoesn?t even have chorizo on the menu. Very very disappointing. On top of that, my chimichanga had ground beef in it that tastedlike glorified Taco Bell at best. The salsa, which was super purée was very sweet. Do they put ketchup in it? There were alsoquite a bit of black specks in it which usually implies that it was roasted, but like I said, very sweet. It still had a littlespice and a very faint taste of cilantro (add more), so it was at least edible. The only reason for the second star is theserver was very attentive and took well care of me during my visit. Short of that it was a very disappointing visit.
I did not get our waiters name but he was great. From our grandchildren to our grown children to us seniors. There were 6 of us. All wanting different stuff but our waiter was right on top of it. He knew who each plate went to. The food was great and hadplenty to carry some home. Kept us in chips and salsa. The only thing we did not like was that they were out of fried ice cream.Actually out of any ice cream. The grandkids were looking forward to that after eating their dinner. But we won't fault them forbeing out of something. Overall we had a great time and enjoyed everything!
