“ This is a great mid sized family restaurant/sports bar just off the strip in PDC . Very extensive menu with a great variety of Mexican and American cuisine. The buffalo wings are amazing, chicken nachos are loaded. Prices are more than fair considering the amount of of food and beverages. Very busy, but worth the wait. I would definitely recommend. ”
“ I want to update this review as I gave La Taberna a second chance. On occasion, people need a second chance. I returned to the restaurant and received a different service and perhaps I will put my first experience down to a communication issue. Having now returned to the restaurant multiple times, I can state that the food is excellent and the service was impeccable. The point here, is that be clear when you ask for something and expect to receive what you actually ordered. The staff are fluent in English and of course Spanish so practice your Spanish beforehand. I have decided to delete the previous bad review as perhaps it was a little unfair of me and we are always quick to judge. Please do try it for yourself. The staff are excellent and the food is very tasty (esta rico). Enjoy. Brian ”
“ Authentic Mexican food that you will love! Restaurant menu is full of options and the portions are large. Be prepared to wait a bit for seating and maybe your meal, when it gets busy, the service can slow. ”
“ Great place with very good food and more than reasonable price. ”
“ Everything was excellent. The promicion A liter of tap beer for the price of half liter was the best, of course. Seafood cooked in rice. ”
“ Only Americans inside - food was good, service was friendly & patient. Not a lot of English but cheaper than 5th ave! Spicy af hot sauce, to be tried sparingly at first, but great on tacos. Recommended! ”
“ This place is hopping! And with good cause - the food is muy delicioso. They have a varied selection, so eat to your heart’s & tummy’s content. Special mention to the Chorizo y Papa con Quezo taco and the calamari con ajo y mantequilla. Dang but they are soooooo good! Please come & try these, if not the other fares on the menu. Reasonably priced, too! Bonus points if you love sports, say NFLbecause they have several TVs showing the games. Come between 6-8pm and it’s hora feliz. Order food and you get 2 drinks for the price of 1. Oh they make you wash your hands with the sink right outside the door. All servers wear masks, shields and gloves. ”
“ Very good sports bar in PDC. Sometimes even showing American sports if you are visiting from US and looking for a particular game to watch. The chorizo tacos and molletes are delicious. They also have a really good happy hour deal for 2 for 1 drinks! ”
