This is definitely our go to! We go a few times a week Service is insanely fast. Food is good. Love the atmosphere!
My husband took on a date to La Bamba and I absolutely loved the food. I always orders the white cheese and theirs is the best I ever had. The cheese coated the tortilla chips and the flavor was amazing. However, I was very impressed with the staff, the service fast the customer service was impeccable! To top it off, I left my expensive eyewear there, when I called days later my eyewear was in the lost and found. They won me over with the food but staff won me over too!
Been coming here for years. Ambiance is nice. I always say they have the best salsa and margaritas in town! They have the best fajitas. Service is fast and friendly. The restaurant is always hopping at lunch so get there early or late. But even when slammed, they turn them pretty quickly. Their weak spot IMO, is ground beef and dishes using it, however, there is plenty else on the menu.
Second time at this restaurant. The staff is friendly. The establishment is clean and easy to find on the corner of State St. The Bamba bowl was very filling and the margarita helped it all down smoothly.
Order take out from them twice and both times the food was yummy! Absolutely love the queso dip. I always get the carnitas tacos. The first time it came with hot sauce but this time it didn't (it was better with hot sauce) but each entree came w chips and salsa so I just used the salsa for my tacos and it was fine.
I thought I had experienced all of the Mexican restaurants in Greensboro... Until we stumbled upon this gem! The service was fast, the food was fresh and flavorful, and the location is pretty fun. We will be back soon!
By far my favorite Mexican spot ever! I've been 3 times in the past 2 days (sorry no pictures I was so hungry!) My faves are the fried burritos (with red AND cheese sauce) or you can get a good ol' #11 combo! They have a secret gem that's not on the menu..... chicken soup.... Thank me later!!
Unclear why every menu doesn't include a Philly Cheesesteak Taco and why I've just now had one. These were honestly so delicious and a nice spin on a traditional taco! They were very large tacos and filled nice and full so much so I was only able to eat one by the time I had a little rice and chips with guacamole! Speaking of the Guacamole, it was just me eating so I got a small Guacamole and while the guacamole with Pico in it is normally my favorite, I knew it would go to waste with just me eating it so I got the regular small guacamole, I wasn't expecting much it packed a little punch I must say!
This local Mexican joint is a common stopping place for my husband and I as its in walking distance. We dined-in right before COVID caused the stay-at-home order in mid-March. We have also gotten take-out a couple of times since then. We are not dining-in restaurants much yet but La Bamba has a very large dining area and outside seating, which is good for COVID social distancing practices for those that are. At the time of these photos, I got the dinner Mixed Fajitas (chicken and steak with grilled onions, tomatoes, and bell peppers). Meat and vegetables are always cooked nicely and seasoned well. Fajitas are served with rice and your choice of beans (you can actually get black beans here, which isn't an option at some of our go-to Mexican restaurants so this is a top choice place for me when being healthy as I don't want refried beans), guacamole, sour cream, salad, pico, and flour tortillas. I do wish they did offer corn tortillas as well as I prefer them and generally healthier. Maybe something they can consider for the future! Plenty of food for two meals! My husband got the Enchiladas Suizas- three chicken enchiladas with cheese sauce and ranchero sauce served with rice. I had a bite and delicious! Also, a nice size portion. Their complementary chips and salsa are also yummy. They give you so many chips when you get take-out as well. Absolutely felt safe when got take-out, cashier is behind glass, wearing mask and gloves, hand sanitizer around, etc. Food is always packed nicely and so far; orders have been correct. No doubt I will be back many times!
