Really good service and decent prices for Southside. The decor is very nice and the food was good they have typical “Tex-Mex” food and some more traditional dishes. I would definitely return and recommend others try it. My wife is of Mexican decent so I know what the real stuff tastes like and this food was closer than many other Mexican restaurants in Pittsburgh!

Amazing food and great service. This is one of my favorite places in the city. Barbacoa quesadillas are killer. 👍

Delicious Mexican Traditional Food. Great staff and quick service. The mole sauce was superb.

We loved it! Nothing better than a family owned business. Hector, our waiter, could not have been nicer. The empanadas were huge and tasty. The chili rellenos and pollo mole poblano were delicious with the mole and green sauce. The house made habanero hot sauce added an extra kick of goodness. The VIP LaPalapa margarita was cool & refreshing after a day in the sun. We will definitely be back! We agree that the big gold door with a rope handlebwas puzzling but make sure to enter for good eats!

This is my new favorite restaurant. The new space they are in is absolutely beautiful. Their margaritas are killer and they make the best Guacamole I've ever had, and they even make it at your table side! Service has been perfect every time. Can't say anything bad about this place, all in all a delicious place to eat.
