In Short
The Flores family named their restaurant after the Mexican song, hoping to inspire festivity with dance, drinks and good food. Lively music, strong margaritas and a lengthy menu certainly do the trick. Adorned with… Read Full Editorial
BEST Mexican in Twin Cities by meindopen via Citysearch on 4/23/2011
WONDERFUL food!!! After living in Texas for 16 years, and then finding this gem about 3 years after moving here, I felt at home. The food is perfect- everything it should be. Pork Guisado Burrito is awesome. Guacamole is awesome. …
Happy Hours...what a joke by Jen Chambers via Citysearch on 7/23/2010
Went for a first date meet up...it was happy hour. We ordered the nachos grande...beef, cheese, jalepenos, etc...on chips...I am not kidding, there were 10 chips on a plate just over the size of a coffee saucer with a thick layer of…
Overprice restaurant with bad service! by chicoking via Citysearch on 5/21/2010
We decided to go to this restaurant for Cinco de Mayo because we live in the area. When we got there they gave us a table in a room that was on the back of another room and we were the only people there. When the waitress came back we…
We left before ordering a meal... by CSMobileUser3 via Citysearch on 11/23/2009
Greasy chips and guacamole from a cub foods tub started the affair. Along with 2 sprites the total was 14 dollars... 9 for the chips and guacamole from a tub. We were so disappointed we left before ordering entrees.. Need we say more...…
Greasy and forgettable by weinerdog97 via Citysearch on 5/30/2009
First off, the chips were greasy and seemed like they had been cooked in leftover oil from the previous day. The main ingredient in the salsa tasted like stale red pepper flakes from a pizza shaker. The two entrees we have were ok, but…
Best Mexican I've had in Minnesota by wmpp via Citysearch on 4/29/2009
I just ate at La Cucaracha for the first time. I can't believe I'd never been to this gem of a restaurant. I had the Pork Guisado Burrito. It was excellent. The portions are *huge*. I was also impressed with their beer selection. You…
Okay but overpriced by mncook via Citysearch on 1/23/2009
The food was okay but nothing that I would rush back for. We'd been there a few years ago while the couple we were there with had been there only a few months ago. We both felt that the quality had gone down for the price. Refills of…
Food isn't worth the Price by Kaitlin H via Insider Pages on 10/22/2008
La Cucaracha has a great vibe to it and being on the corner of Grand and Dale it's in a great location. Don't plan on driving because there is no parking lot and there aren't many spaces available. Finding a legal place to park can be…
Taco Bell was better by oppius via Citysearch on 8/16/2008
So we just arrived home from hat might be the worst Mexican place I have ever been to. We only agree that the service was pretty good although they were not really busy either. Our margarita's were ordered first and we should have figured…
Carrot Cake = amazing by jk555 via Citysearch on 6/4/2008
I don't really go for the mexican food, but for their carrot cake. It is the best I've had. You receive a HUGE piece which will last you 4 days. (eat a layer a day) It is a fairly pricey piece of cake however it is 4 layers of goodness. …
Such a drag by kkz via Citysearch on 5/7/2008
We have been going La Cucaracha for the past 15 years. I loved this place. We used to walk there from our apartment regularly. My favorit e was the Chile Relleno, super hot, tasty, no meat... Also the Aztec Chicken Tostada, the tomatilo…
Everyone was right. Not so good by xpressobeans via Citysearch on 4/30/2008
I thought I would ignore the write ups on this place and check it out for myself. It couldnt be that bad could it? I had been a server for years so I am pretty understanding. Boy was I wrong.I called ahead and talked to Katharine the host…
mediocre food, horrible service by chaos421 via Citysearch on 4/6/2008
I've lived near La Cucaracha for quite some time now. Whenever I get hungry for mexican food, I decide to give it another try. Well my last time was definitely my last time. Hands down the worst thing about going to this place is the…
World's blandest Mexican food. by mvkaiser via Citysearch on 3/4/2008
I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. The service was awful. The people sitting next to us arrived 15 minutes after us and ordered their food after us. They received their meals before us, even though we both had tables of…
Still feeling it 2 days later by foosin via Citysearch on 1/18/2008
One trip to this place was enough for me. The margaritas were very good and the bar area had a nice atmosphere. The menu had a nice variety. Some items are a bit overpriced. You have to pay for chips ($2) which are very greasy. The…
Slow Service by rogere via Citysearch on 12/28/2007
We had lunch at La Cucaracha for what was planned to be a nice afternoon but unfortunately soon after we received our appetizer the experience went down hill. I tried to order 3 tacos with one being chicken and 2 beef but to substitute…
Not worth the Price by papaziggs via Citysearch on 10/28/2007
Terribly overpriced, Marguerita's tasted like they were poured from a can, Chips and con casa were tough and were spicy with out any flavor. WON'T GO BACK!!!
Go to district del la Sol instead. by vinofile via Citysearch on 8/27/2007
I have been many times as I live in the area, and people keep saying oh try it again. I have not had one good meal there. The drinks are over priced. I think the server was nice once. The last time was the last time. I took Mother who was…
Love it...ALWAYS by stp87 via Citysearch on 7/23/2007
1. I find it funny that people can criticize this place when the first thing you see when you walk in to the left are the awards they've received, and quite frankly earned.\r
2. The food is really good. It's a family owed restaurant with…
Wish it actually was authentic... by thakeepa14 via Citysearch on 6/13/2007
I took my dad here when he was in town after he'd heard they had some of the best Mex in the Twin Cities. Needless to say, it was NOT the best Mex in the Twin Cities. We parked at the closest available spot, a 5 min walk down Summit. …
