Really fun atmosphere! Outside seating is very nice and welcoming. The food and drinks were great! However, it is a bit pricey.

Very cute spot love the openness of restaurant. The live music on Friday was a very nice touch. The front and back outdoor space is cool. Def will return I liked the mix of Mexican and Chinese very different. Drinks were strong too! Check it out!!

Dined and gotten takeout from here and I’m a fan of the food, it’s on the pricey side tho. Two tacos for $19 is a lot, 6 churros for $10 isn’t that bad however. Great staff and the drinks are on point, recommend you check it out

There isn’t much not to love about La Chinesca. The space, (spaces, really, with the inside front and back rooms scaled down perfectly by the cool two-sided bar separating them, not to mention lovely front and back outdoor sections) the drinks (with excellent selection of tequilas noteworthy) and most of all, the food, which is wonderfully creative and simply outstanding! The prices might be a smidge high relative to the portion sizes, (filling though they are) the quality is so good that it is more then worth it.

Overall, it was a disappointing dinner, but I would give it another shot. Service was pretty lacking – we waited at least 15 minutes between plates, and we even got something we ordered again after we finished it the first time. The tacos I tried were decent, though expensive. However, the biggest issue was with the Singapore noodles. This dish was extraordinarily salty. So salty that it was physically painful to eat more than two bites. Thankfully this was taken off the bill after I mentioned it to our waitress (something I never do). I would probably come back but it would not be my first choice if I wanted to keep my tastebuds (and blood pressure) intact

I’ve driven past this place and I’ve always wanted to try it out and I finally did today. It’s a great atmosphere to have food and be with friends but the service and food is just okay. Also the food is very pricey for the portions they provide. We ordered the Chicken chow mein and the roasted pork Singapore noodles. The chicken chow mein was decent but the roasted pork Singapore noodle was way too salty. The server said they were shareable but they definitely were not because we were not filled up at all with the portions. This restaurant would be a one time visit for me.

Came here for the Lunar New Year fixed menu special. Some of the food came old cold which was disappointing but they did allow us to give it back to get warmer food. All and all it was a good experience just wasn’t great. It was missing strong flavors. I’m glad I tried it though. The menu was creative and I’d give them another try.
