AUTHENTIcI’ve been to Mexico and Mexican restaurants in several US states.It’s mouthwatering. They should charge more given the portions and quality. Feel like I’m in Mexico again. Muy bueno

Best sit down Mexican Place in town. One of only two that we have tried that did not mix in meat to a vegetarian dish. Highly recommend.

This was a fantastic authentic Mexican restaurant. It has fantastic food and chips and salsa were brought to the table. We went mid afternoon around 1 and it seemed busy and there wasn't enough staff to service the tables well. They were doing their best but I did have to get "to-go" containers by myself and the Wait for the check took a while. There were two people working the tables and there were about 7 tables going at the time we ate. Loved this place just needed more staff like everyone else does at this time.

Hands down THE BEST Mexican food in the entire CU area, if not the entire state. Grew up near Chicago and the local cuisine there pales in comparison. I visit 2-3 times a month it's that good, and the staff have never missed a beat or forgotten an item. Great place.

This place is not great. There was only one server so taking that into consideration, he was not good. They were both busy either. We got a California burrito, asked for guacamole and sour cream on the side. He told us the burrito did not come with guacamole, even though the menu said it did. When the food came out, there was guacamole in the burrito. We mentioned it and he didn’t care. We had to great his attention just to get refills and the check. He never brought the check. I just went to the front to pay and he asked where my check was, that he never gave me. Would not recommend to anyone and will not be back.

So delicious! We keep meaning to explore other restaurants in the area, but can't help coming back here. Anything they do with pork is magical.

What a great place! The El Diablo Burrito had a wonderfully smokey sauce with a nice amount of heat and so much flavor. Loved it! Have also had the el Jeffe burrito and I think it is my favorite! Try this salsa verde, it's amazing.

Great options. Food was fantastic! Service was wonderful. Chips and salsa were a great start. Only suggestion, the salsa was so good but would be nicer if served in a bowl at the table. It would make it easier to enjoy with those incredible freshly made chips. Will definitely be back.

What a great place! Fantastic food and terrific service! Best birria in Urbana-Champaign, and we have some other wonderful Mexican restaurants. Guacamole was fabulous and homemade chips were perfect!! Margaritas were delicious too. May not look like much from the outside, but the food was outstanding! I highly recommend.

We absolutely love La Mixteca! This is our go-to Mexican restaurant for a date night. Excellent variety and price, and the service is always good. The food is well seasoned and delicious. Love this local gem!

first off the waiter was smug and rude as hell should have left right then, but we went here a couple of times and it was pretty good.this time however service was atrocious, pushy and again rude. ordered a chicken chi chongawhich to me is always fried, but what i got was a burrito with what appeared to be some busted ass chicken tenders left over from a child's meal...covered in queso cheese sauce, was mooshy and so gross, got our food..no fkn silverware, my friend had to go and ask for it as our food sat while waiting on the waiter, the chips were like the bottom of the barrel crap not a whole chip in the basket and greasy,salsa come in some bunk little condiment portion cups like a 2 oz shot cup w/ lid. once we got our food never saw the waiter again, had to flag down a waitress to ask for a refill on my coke and asked 3 times still no refill..got a coke had to pay $3.00 says free refills...no refills...asked again for a coke and our check, took 20 minutes to get the check which was unreadable umm printer ink out? could not even see how much or what i was paying for.said to the waitress that i could not read it she started reading what i ordered and obvious language barrier, then it took another 15 minutes to get my card and receipt to sign and leave. should not have paid, should have sent the caca burrito back, and left.won't be back to this hole for crappy food, crappy service and spend twice as much time waiting to pay as it did to look at the menu, order and eat.sad all the way around. they were not even busy, obviously treated like crap because of our race, could tell by the waiter who sat us and his piss poor attitude, should be fired and the waitress was just as lacking in her sense of service, do not see this place lasting much longer, word of mouth will get around and i will have absolutely nothing good to say about this place.all my students, and employees ask where are the good places to eat?i start by telling them where "not" to go...in closing i would like to say the place was gross dirty table, food on the floors, tripped over a broom as i was looking at desert case, and the back of the place looked like a garage sale chairs stacked and pushed around the back door, and the bar covered in plants.preparing for a weekend of diarrhea and nausea.
