Bang in the middle of Magazine Street, this place offers tortilla tacos topped with pico and cilantro and fish entrees that promise you a whirlwind of taste.

We walked in to this restaurant and were greeted friendly. Once we sat down we asked for popular food and beverage recommendations. we were offered the margaritas (sour mix with sugar). After sipping the unsatisfying margarita, we ask what type of shrimp was used in their most popular dish....the waitress let us know it was the small cocktail shrimp and the rest of the food offered was fried. Uninterested it what this restaurant offered we asked for local authentic food and were directed by the waitress to Chipotle...... I d... read more

Completely unwilling to make any substitutions – I attempted to substitute beans instead of meat, which is a cost benefit to them. The waitress replied they would make my taco without meat and I would have to pay the additional amount for a side of beans. Completely ridiculous and unfair to the customers.

New Orleans Mexican GO TO!!!!!! – This place is a favorite. Ask for the black sauce and always order chicken. The way they grill it is, oh, so DELICIOUS!!!

Serving some of the best tacos in town, this Uptown spot makes it easy to get great authentic (and cheap) Mexican. – In Short Here you can watch Magazine Street passers-by through the window. Photos and murals of Central America line the walls. The open kitchen adds to the atmosphere as diners see, smell and hear their food being prepared. This local eatery specializes in authentic Mexican. That means pico de gallo not salsa for starters, soft-tortilla tacos topped with pico and cilantro, fish and tongue entrees and traditio... read more

Not Authentic – This place was a huge disapointment. After seeing the reviews and seeing it on the "best of" list, I thought I would get something decent. The place is definitely not authentic Mexican food. I would honestly compare the food to microwave food that cost 10 bucks a plate. The place was just really crowded but the service was decent.

Best Mexican Uptown – I don't know of anyone who has ever had a bad experience at Taqueria Corona, and can't possibly explain the one bad review on this site. The food is perfect, authentic Mexican at a dirt cheap price. The fish tacos and black bean soup are among the best I've ever had - this coming from someone who lived in Texas for 10 years, and has traveled extensively through Mexico. The service and ambience are basic, but that isn't what you go there for. The Best Mexican in Uptown New Orleans by far, and can hold it... read more

TASTY – This place is great if you want to eat mexican food. Don't let the cheap prices fool you. This food is GOOD. It's nothing fancy (not at all, really), but super delicious. The employees may not speak English all that well, but at least they know how to make good grub. I highly recommend this place to anyone who needs a quick and satisfying bite to eat.
