I gave two stars cause I usually come here for tacos and they are always good first time getting steak fijitas and the amount of steak I was given for $33 is insane that alone just lost my business I could only make 2 good size tacos and a skinny 3rd one not enough for the price so disappointed

Small place in a strip mall but unexpectedly good authentic food! Taco salad was great and actually just the right serving size though the shell/bowl appeared more than half empty… Was good, wouldn’t hesitate to stop in again if in the area!

Our local favorite for Mexican. Good food and amazingly kind and helpful folks! We got a large order recently for a family party and everyone was raving about the tacos and guacamole. So happy to have this spot close by.

Decent Mexican food and decent service. Prices were a bit high but it could just be Biden’s economic impact on prices. I had the flautas. The chiken was tasty.

I love La Penca. The owner is always so friendly and he is one of the hardest working human beings I have ever met. He is always there, running the show, and making sure everything is great. The food is fabulous. I love their home-made salsa and chips, and the steak tacos are my favorite anywhere. The sides are good too. Service is wonderful, and not pushy. I would go here every day if I could.

The burritos are exceptional with just the perfect seasoning (ask for extra meat and you’ll have some leftover for later lol).
