La Reina Mexican Food & Bakery

GOOD: You can buy Mexican sweet bread till closing time if they are not sold out. That is not all they sell. Tenían lo que parecía gelatina, flan, y arroz con leche. The prices are economical and the menu is extensive. Beef, pork, chicken & sea food. Tacos, tostadas, burritos, tortas, enchiladas, chiles rellenos y caldos.
BAD: 20 minutes before closing they turn off the burners and fryers. I went on Sunday night, the red blinking «OPEN» sign was on but no food could be cooked for me. The salsa station was a horrible mess with spoiled cucumbers. The lady was mopping and was not friendly at all.
UGLY: the grocery store odor was of rotting potatoes & meat. It smelled extra fishy too. I have been to other grocery stores where they sell fish & shrimp as well, but the smell here is scary. The workers smoke outside in front of the door and they are scary unfriendly. Made me feel like I was going to get mugged.
I’m very disappointed. I don’t think I’m going back there again. I didn’t get to taste the food. I went to Cardenas and got a huge pre made chicken salad for $ 3.99.

DONT EAT HERE EVER!!! ITS DISGUSTING! We came in and asked for a taco bowl AND THE CHEF ASKED US WHAT IS INSIDE!!! she said «um have you had it before? do you know what’s inside? can you tell me?» MY DAD HAD TO TELL HER HOW TO MAKE THE FOOD. my sister had a taco and the Carne asada was SPOILED! SHE NEARLY THRU UP!!! everything had a lot of lime (trying to reduce the taste of spoiled meat) the onions were spoiled with a lot of lime and the guacamole WAS BLACK this is poor service and there should be an inspection at this restaurant they can get people sick!!!

Tried this place after reading the other reviews. It is a hole in the wall and the staff doesn’t really speak much English but it was worth it. The food was good, the portion sizes were generous, and it was well priced.
They have baked good which were also well priced and (what I tried) delicious.

Try the chicken tamales and burritos they are great. Everything is made fresh… hidden gem!

we went here on 4^th of July morning looking for menudo to help a friends hangover, it looks alittle sketchy but oh well, figured we’d try it. First… I don’t speak Spanish and they speak very little English, thank goodness for for the one other person in there who ordered for us. My friend got the menudo and I decided on this chicharone dish with some kind of green sauce. I would’ve just drank that green sauce… it was sooo yummy. My friend said the menudo was on point, def. helped his ails. I managed to talk to one of the workers and she told me how the green sauce was made… I told her I would love to purchase just some of the sauce and she just GAVE me a nice sized portion of the sauce to take home, which I have put on just about everything.lol.
Very nice place and lovely employees, we will be back for sure to try other menu items.

Good food, friendly staff. The quantity you get is a good value. As for taste, its not really blowing me away. Just ok, but good for a quick dinner.

so I went here earlier today and I just loved the food. it really tastes like my grandmother made it. my one complaint would be that the soda machine is broken and only spat out that gross soda water. how are you gonna have great Mexican food and not wash it down with a nice cold soda? so there ya go. do I recommend this place? hell yes but go and pick up a drink before.

This is our GO TO PLACE for Al Pastor Taco’s. They also have some amazing Chicharrones. Incredible. We drive from Summerlin to this place just for the authentic taste.

Great homemade Mexican food and pastries. Prices are very reasonable as are the portions. Don’t expect a flashy place, this is an authentic taco shop (yes, they have tripa, cabeza, buche, and lengua).
Basically everything is priced from $ 3.99 for carne asada, carnitas, or pollo to $ 5.99 for shrimp. They can also make veggie burritos, however my guess is the beans and tortillas have lard in them. They sell rotisserie chickens for $ 4.99 and you can add rice, beans, and tortillas for $ 4 more. Salsa bar available and they take credit cards too. As for desserts, they have lots to chose from, ranging anywhere for .25 cents for a pastry to $ 1.99 for a slice of tres leches cake.
