| - I drove by this little joint many times, so I was glad I was finally here last Sunday. Oop, no fish taco. No problem. Fish tacos are tricky to do well and cheap unless there is a large turnover anyway.
I ordered a chicken mole taco, a pulled pork taco and a beef enchilada taco, all in double yellow corn tortillas. All together was a bargain $8 plus tax. The chicken mole and the beef enchilada tacos were okay. They were moist and actually tasted somewhat like chicken mole and beef enchilada, though I wished the flavours could be more intense. The pulled pork taco was disappointing because it was seriously dry, rendering the pork flavorless (bland would be too flavourful a description). This issue should be easy enough to fix for these two helpful and friendly staffs behind the counter, considering that they could pull off a beef enchilada taco just fine.
I like that you can choose from 5 types of tortillas (white corn, yellow corn, blue corn, crispy, white flour), 5 types of sauces and a variety of toppings. The yellow corn tortillas are quite soft and tasty. La Tortilleria also sells burritos, chimichanga, churro and other entrees and sides.
I love taco joint. My appetite is wetted. I will be back to try the blue tortillas and burritos later. Plus I love $8 for 3 tacos (or $9 for 4).
