“ Came here for dinner with my brother and uncle, and thoroughly enjoyed the food and the craic! Were served by friendly lady who brought us a great drinks special of 1 marguerita, 1 beer and 1 tequila shot for 18. We accidentally ordered ourselves a set each, instead of sharing but all good! Food was delicious-we tried the birria, which came with a juicy sauce to dip, and the tacos al pastor were to die for-really tasty and authentic! Can highly recommend! ”
“ We finally finished the holy trilogy that is La Tacqueria!!! As with the other two restaurants, the food was as authentic as you're gonna get this side of the 'big pond'. Great service from the team too, with expediant delivery, confident cocktails, and a friendly smile with Norn Irish style! Reasonably priced to leave with a full stomach, and great decor too. Highly recommended! ”
“ We’ve been coming here for years, and we haven’t had a bad meal. They are seriously at the top of their game. They are dog friendly too in the terrace area, which is great whatever the weather as they have heaters. 10/10! ”
“ Note this is the original taqueria, they are not affiliated with La Taqueria in city centre! The others are copy cats and totally not the same standard of food or service! Great tacos, well seasoned but slightly oily. Got the birria tacos and the dip complimented it well. One portion comes with 2 tacos, they are quite filling so this is more than enough for one person. If in a group I suggest ordering different ones so you can taste different flavours. Recommend the guacamole with chips on the side as well. The cocktails were great too. The staff are lovely, service is fast, small boutique restaurant, overall great choice. ”
“ Wonderful food, mexican blended flavours that are full of flavour and heat in some cases. Lovely decor as well, a great place to stop on the ormeau road. Come for the chicken quesadillas and the mohitos! ”

“ We arrived in late for a quick dinner and even though the staff had closed for the night the lady on the floor was more than happy to accommodate us even though the kitchen was closing. We had one of the pork shoulder specials as well as two sides and the fish tacos. Food and service were excellent! ”
“ Cannot fault this place. Great margarita's, great food, great service and good music! ”
