Taqueria La Lucha

I read the menu really exited that they had a lot of authentic sounding flavors. I ordered Chicken Tinga tacos and it was the worst taco I had. The tortillas taste like mission tortillas with preservatives and I can’t pin point what it was but I only ate it cause I was starving. I got a rice and beans on the side. Beans have a weird taste also . They’re watery which is far from Mexican. The rice has GREEN PEAS IN IT and did not taste fried like Mexican rice usually does. Rice and beans are a staple in a lot of Latin American dishes. The two are supposed to complement each other, not contrast - Very strange flavors. Skip it if you like Mexican food.

Great street tacos and mixed drinks. Nice patio. For outside tables, orders are placed at a window and they bring the food out. Good (and strong 💪🏻) mango chili margarita.

I am from the Southwest, where Mexican food is amazing & thought this place was great! Pollo Pibil taco was wonderful! The chicken Tinga & the guacamole wonderful, as well. Decent prices too which was a nice relief because everything in New Orleans is so dang expensive! Lovely atmosphere & my husband talked to the owner a lot who was super nice, and took orders and ran the food!

Really nice courtyard, it was all shaded in the evening so it was nice on a summer night. Food was very good, and margaritas were strong. I ordered at the window and they brought it out to me. Ill definitely be back, just a short walk from the convention center.

What an excellent dinner we just had. The tacos were epic we had to order more. The restaurant itself is so well decorated and the staff are awesome, everything is made in house and tastes awesome.
