The decor is great representing the 505 well. The new way to order took the restaurant experience away. The back of the house very loud not to bad not to good! The chill needs flavor red needs more spices an green taste like 505 green sauce again not bad not good! I understand covid and can't find people who want to work. Just was looking for the experience like the old location.
Very good new Mexican food. I chose to try this restaurant because they had vegan and vegetarian options. I had crunchy guacamole tacos with rice and beans and my husband had enchiladas. The prices were very reasonable with DELICIOUS chips ( house made) and salsa. The portions were big and service was friendly. Dine in: Yes … More
Disappointed in La Salita, this used to be a restaurant my wife and I enjoyed, but as of late, they have declined with their customer service. I order my food online and arrive at the time that my food I said to be ready (20 min from order). They tell me they lost my ticket and they are rushing to make it now. I wait an additional 25 minutes to get my food. They had my food ready but chose not to tell me even though I was sitting right in front of them. I had to get up and ask if the bag they had behind the counter was mine after it being there for 10 minutes. They chose to waste my time as a customer. This is the second time this has happened, and I feel disregarded, discriminated and disappointed. We will not return to this restaurant and will recommend better quality restaurants that train their staff well. La Salita should take down the award for “best wait staff”
