Customer Reviews
La Tolteca in Churchville continues to be one of the most consistently excellent spots in the area, and this visit reminded me why it’s such a local favorite. From the moment you walk in, the staff makes you feel genuinely welcomed, and the service stays attentive without ever feeling rushed. The food is the real standout. Every dish comes out hot, fresh, and full of flavor—the kind of bold, satisfying Mexican cuisine that keeps you coming back. Portions are generous, the ingredients taste high‑quality, and everything from the salsa to the entrées has that perfect balance of seasoning and freshness. It’s the type of place where you can order your usual or try something new and know it’s going to hit the mark. The restaurant is clean, comfortable, and well‑run, and the team keeps things m
One of the better mexican restaurants in the area. Not super special but is a great option for our dining out rotation. Service and food as expected for your average mexican restaurant. Food will come out quick. I have gluten allergies and was able to eat the chips and fajitas with no problems.
Started with the Fried Stuffed Jalapeños and loved them. I recommend the Fried Taquitos and Yolanda's. I felt too rushed to eat. We was just starting with the appetizers when the food arrived. We had the fresh Guacamole, made at the table, but the Avocado was not mature enough to be used. It left a bad taste in the mouth. Other than that we had a good time.
Extremely disappointed with my recent visit. It started with the waitress taking between 10-15 minutes to approach our table initially. Made a very simple request to do the street tacos with vegetables rather than meat. The waitress wasn't sure whether this could be done, and instead of advising that it couldn't, decided to bring out a plate of vegetables with other items as though we ordered fajitas (which are more expensive than the street tacos we wanted). Sure enough, we were charged for fajitas. Waitress continued by not giving a bag when it was obvious one was needed for to-go containers. The food was so-so. I imagine a better Mexican food experience could be found with quick searching.
Update: 12/30/25 the manager Anna called me first thing in the morning to discuss the situation. She was very kind, recognized the issues, and because we are regular customers, she ended up refunding the entire bill. Very grateful that she did that, we will continue going almost weekly, as we have for years now. Had a heck of a night trying to order, pick up, and eat dinner due to a very busy night at the restaurant and an underwhelming experience - all while my cat who was just picked up from surgery waited in the car.
