Good Mexican Food, Close By.  4 Star Rating - Very good

By Steve V. | insider_guru Insider Guru | Rank: 757

Within walking distance of the office, we often go here when we have a group of folks to celebrate an occasion. I've enjoyed the food (and at times... drinks). The food is reasonably priced and we've always had decent service.

I really enjoy the food from this restaurant. They offer mexican food at decent prices. The service here is great parking can be a problem on the weekends. The food is always prepared well, I have been 100 % satisfied. The restaurant looks clean and the atmosphere here is good.

Nice  4 Star Rating - Very good

By ESTEFANEE V. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 7,724

I been to this restaurant and other locations of this restaurant chain, and this location is the best. Staff is friendly, the only thing is parking. If you go there on the weekend parking is hard to get nearby.

Fun atmosphere, food not impressive 2 Star Rating - Wouldn't recommend

By slpdocstu

The restaurant itself is a little kitchy, but in a good way. They have people playing the guitar that serenade the tables (although some aren't the slightest bit authentic - just a white guy with a guitar). The servers wear what appears to be Mexican clothing. But, I go restaurants more for the food than anything else - and the food was disappointing. They serve some of the most boring rice I've ever seen in a Mexican restaurant. The beans are just your typical refried beans with a little cheese thrown on top. And the entree itself was bland and unexciting. I won't be back. You can find Mexican food for much less that tastes much better.

Pros: Atmosphere, decor
Cons: Food

De-Lic-Ioso!!! 5 Star Rating - World class

By wildswede

Went for Lunch. If you like spicy get the Filete Al Chipotle (flank steak smothered in a spicy chipotle sauce on a bed of tortillas), although everything on the menu looked good! Their salsas are fantastic, and their macaroni soup (comes with all(?) meals) is delish. I don't know how they make their beans, but these are in a broth with bacon and chiles. Fantastic. Service great, prices very reasonable for amount of food you get. Bring quarters for parking on street.

Pros: FOOD, Service, FOOD

Authentic Mexican 5 Star Rating - World class

By jd_hayes

I had a plate that was based on steak/carne asada. Some of the best stake pieces I have eaten. Combined with flour tortillas, rice, lettuce and some bean "soup", it was as good as it gets. The chips and salsa were good also--quite picante. This is an authentica Mexican restaurant; it is not a romantic restaurant.

Only bad thing was that I stayed 10 minutes too long and got a $45 parketing ticket (I parked at a meter but I think they have free parking).

What is all the hype about? 2 Star Rating - Wouldn't recommend

By rplummer

I recently visited La Parrilla and I don't know what all the hype is about. I went with another person on a Tuesday night and the seating wasn't that good and the service was fair. The waitress forgot my margaritas a couple of times and there was no greenhouse to sit in. The food was fair, but definitley not romantic and not worth the price.

Cons: not romantic
