La Texanita Restaurant

Super friendly service. Everything was very fresh. I had the flautas, my sisters had chili relleno, tacos and flautas. Everything was delicious! The salsa and avacado sauce was a bit too spicy for me, but my 3 sisters said it was perfect for them.

Oh my goodness so amazing. A friend recommended this one and they were spot on. Authentic Mexican food that is to die for. Once featured on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives, this place is a jewel. The service was incredible - very friendly, fast, and attentive. Portions are generous in the food is simply delectable. I don't know what the sauce is that accompanies the chips, but it is some form of liquid gold. Their salsa is out of this world delicious. The fish tacos were something made in heaven and carried down to your table by Angels. I would imagine everything on the menu is more than satisfying.

Alma was so inviting and accommodating to our dining experience! Very professional yet very down to earth! Her food is excellent! You won’t be disappointed! Just ask Guy Fieri!!

I love their Birria Soup.🙋 This is perfect in the fall and anytime you want a really good beef soup. The broth is so yummy 🤤 Toppings, tortillas, your choice, chips and salsa if you want. BTW- the Jamaica is not to sweet.

First time I've been, great food in highly recommend the parole. Came with all the usual toppings and the flavor is bomb. The service was fantastic super nice..probably the best customer service I've had in a restaurant. I will be going back for sure

Saw this place on DDD and knew I had to go when I was going to be in Santa Rosa. Sooo good, homemade tortillas were to die for. Burritos were delicious and chips and salsa great too.

Was super hungry and this place delivered on all levels. Great spot for any number of guests and seemed super family friendly. Here's the breakdown... - Price is very reasonable. For example, homemade tortilla tacos were between $3-4 with non-homemade being $1.25-ish. - Food was very yummy. Everything was fresh and portions were substantial. Left feeling stuffed and happy. :) - Service was positive and prompt. We didn't wait long for anything, including food. - Atmosphere was really nice too, colorful walls and well lit. Wasn't too loud and the unique long hall layout worked well. - Drinks didnt look substantial but they offered your basic soft drinks and some more traditional beverage options. Enjoyed my time here and will be back. If you're craving good Mexican food then seriously give this place a try.

Love, love, love this restaurant. The staff are friendly and welcoming. Great menu. Food is always good no matter what I order. This time I had the grilled chicken salad. It was amazing. They bring chips with two different salsas... Spicy red and a green avacado and tomatillo. Both are really good. Can't wait to try the next dish.

Stopped by on our way home from a Sonoma day trip and visting the Charles Schultz musuem. This was the first time I had a molcajete and was blown away. Take that with a grain of salt however, considering it's the first time I've had it. Tacos were great -- larger than normal tortillas, but the meats we ordered -- al pastor and carnitas -- were AMAZING. So much flavor and very generous with their filling. We came at an off-time, around 3pm, so service was quite attentive as there weren't many other customers. Plus, we got endless basket of chips and salsa. My only gripe is that the salsa they provided were in plastic sauce cups, whereas most other Mexican restaurants I've been to provide it in a bowl. Petty complaint, and nothing to knock a star over. The interior was clean and authentic, and the staff friendly. Will definitely stop by next time I'm back in the area!

Carnitas, carne asada, y birria Home made tortillas Salsas are so flavorful So worth it

I remember la texanita from when it was still a taco truck. I've never had bad food here tbh. This time I ordered a birria and it was great. Amount was a bit small but with it. IMO. Service was great, all the servers were super attentive and they periodically check in on you. The spots old school but nice, paintings everywhere. Definitely cool vibe and ambiance.

Restaurant: La Texanita Address: 1667 Sebastopol Road, Santa Rosa I went here three times last week, made two fb posts about their food and decided to share it here also. These guys have been around for 20 years! I been sleeping on em born and raised in Santa Rosa and JUST discovered the best Mexican food spot EVER in Sonoma County. I got the shedded beef flautas and only ate three of the four the first time and I literally could not stop thinking about that fourth flauta all day last Tuesday. Had to grab lunch there on Wednesday, yes I got the same thing because they are amazing! Took my son out for dinner last night and yep I got the flautas again - feels like I'm making up for lost time son got the chilaquiles and cleaned the plate. They made me their version of taco dorado and OMG freaking delish. Needless to say all future meetings will be held here so I can work thru the menu. Went back a fourth time and got the molcajete and tacos dorados plate all phenomenal

Lovely people, great food, beautiful paintings; highly recommend La Texanita. I will go back and take friends and family ; their homemade corn tortillas are heavenly.

I absolutely love this place I've been going here since I was a teen. The owner is super sweet and always remembers me. I usually get my usual which is a shrimp burrito. It is delicious! The beans are so creamy and full of flavor and the rice is not over seasoned. Everything wrapped in the flour tortilla just tastes so good! And they grill up the burrito just the way I like it. Some places tend to hardly warm up the tortilla and that really alters the taste of the whole burrito. The sopes, the chilaquiles, the menudo, and the tacos are also quite delicious! The inside is beautifully painted and they have 2 big screen tvs. When it's nice and warm, the patio is a nice seating area. It can get quite busy in the evenings so if you're eating there, there may be a short wait time.

I watch this on the Food Network and my food wasn't that amazing. I think they can work on it myself. I can make that at home and even taste better.

We wanted to try a new place and this was right down the road from where we were. This is such a little gem! The place is small and cozy and very inviting. They lady at the front was super nice and very attentive. I ordered the rice and beans because i had a tooth pulled and couldn't really eat regular food. My husband got the regular burrito with asada and said it was really good. My daughter got a chile relleno with rice and beans. My family really loved the food! I really enjoyed my rice and beans as well. I'd definitely come back when I can eat regular food!

Love coming and getting their Menudo on Saturday or Sunday mornings! In my opinion one of the best in town. The service is always on point, so sweet. The vibes are always chill and so happy.

Cute casual restaurant serving authentic Mexican food. Has its own parking lot. The colorful outdoor patio has an awning so there is plenty of shade. The indoors accommodates large and smaller groups of people. The food was fresh, delicious and reasonably priced. Service was excellent.

I absolutely love this place and have been coming here for years. The service is always wonderful and the food is excellent. I also love the decor- very fun ambience. Typically I get their flautas with shredded chicken- those are my absolute favorite but last night I opted for a tostada with carne asada. I was not disappointed! My husband had their tacos al pastor. We've long said that their al pastor is one of the best we've ever had. Super friendly people, lovely restaurant, outstanding food. I highly recommend La Texanita!

A cold, rainy day begs for some hot soup. I was craving posole, so I pulled out my trusty Yelp app and found this place and made a togo order. I very much enjoyed the posole, it was full of great flavor! The only thing I would say, is the serving size looked much larger in the restaurant, I think that has to do with the togo containers they use. The other negative thing is they didn't honor the free soft drink coupon with Yelp check in. They didn't tell me until after they charged me $4.50 on my card for the bottle of Mexican Coke when I informed them I had the coupon before at order. I was told by the hostess their management acted like they had no knowledge of the yelp special.

Got to Santa Rosa early for a Yelp Elite Squad event and decide to check out this place since it was featured in Guy Fieri's Triple DDD show many moon ago. I was fortunate to meet the owner, Alma, who wanted to see my Yelp app as it was offering a free soda that she did not authorize with Yelp. No biggy. I then told Alma that I saw her episode on Triple DDD and she was very appreciative that of all the Mexican places in Santa Rosa (and there are a LOT especially on her street alone) that I choose to dine at her restaurant. The ambiance made us feel as if we were in Mexico; all of her staff were super friendly and helpful with our order. We were immediately served with chips and 2 kinds of salsa. We ordered burritos, pork huarache (to me its like a fork & knife Mexican Pizza); Quesabirria (birria tacos with cheese) with beans an rice. Also tried the featured dishes on that Guy Fieri had: Pozole and Carne Asado Tacos with home made tortillas. Everything was so delicious with big portions, so authentic that we felt that we were in Mexico! We were full, even with leftovers as I expected with any Mexican restaurant. Before we left, Alma checked on us to see if everything was OK; and I told her that we had a wonderful dining experience which made her happy. I left that restaurant feeling that I was treated like her family. Definitely will come back here again to try other dishes! If you ever you are in Santa Rosa craving for authentic Mexican Food, support local, stop by La Texanita and you will not be disappointed! :)

Eaten there numerous times and was never disappointed. Small place so get there early.

Love the food, great authentic flavors. If you are ever missing moms pozole come get a taste of la Texanitas pozole amazing taste. Friendly staff that go beyond expectations.

Came here on a Sunday morning, hungover, looking for the cure. prayed to the hunger gods and found this place. My hangover and hunger magically disappeared. Get the pozole!!! The pozole had a lot of flavor and the place had good service. It tastes yummy

Food was really good I had the best food I ever ate Service was amazing and they were really nice. Jackson

Been wanting to try La Texanita for some time now. Really enjoyed coming here. I ordered a huarache w/ carne asada. I loved the huarache as it had cheese and green chili. I have to say, what stood out to me was the salsa as well as the guacamole sauce(?) they served with the chips.. This reminded me of a Taqueria in the IE I used to love! Please check this place out..

Ambiance fun, colorful It all fell apart with the food. Very disappointing after reading the reviews. Generally the fool was okay, nothing special. We started on a bad note too. When we did the Yelp Check-in there was a free drink offer. The server accused me of not doing it right. Tainted the service experience. NO FREE BEVERAGE!!!

Very delicious Birria and Pozole! The broth was tasty and meat, so tender. Fast service and wonderful hostess.

Always great for the best takeout. Stopped by for an early dinner recently and the server was great.

We got the carne asada plate and the huarache with asada, everything was delicious down to the chips, salsa, and cream sauce. We also ordered extras of the fresh house flour tortillas that did not disappoint. Everyone was friendly, the patio was cute, and I will be going back whenever I'm in the area!

It was fun to get out for another patio dining with hubby, good friend and of course our 2 fur babies! I have dined at La Texanita many times over the years, but I think I have failed to review! Me Bad! The food is always delicious. The service is always so quick and friendly. During covid, they rigged up an outdoor patio, however it is pretty noisy as it is right next to Sebastopol Road with some very loud cars! This time we ordered a veggie burrito, shrimp tostada, lengua (tongue) taco, and a big size shrimp cocktail. The veggie burrito was rich and creamy, hubby loved his lengua taco and shrimp cocktail. I think they goofed up my order and gave me a shrimp taco instead of a shrimp tostada. Tortillas are good though and the filling was great. I just really wanted my tostada! But I let it go, we had a very nice and quiet lunch as we went after the lunch crowd. I will always continue to come back to La Texanita.

I hear the burritos are huge and good here. However, I didn't want a burrito and opted for something for light so got a fish and shrimp taco. I was really surprise about the fish. It was heavily breaded, no flavor, dry, and cut up in pieces. The shrimp taco was good. But both tortillas ripped and was so messy to eat. I don't recommend the fish taco. The horchata was really good. We waited 15 min for our food, they only had one cook and one cashier during a lunch hour.

A solid option for Mexican food. Their birria is delicious on the weekend. Handmade tortillas available. I love their whole fried fish the mojarra frita. Frijoles de la olla are an option here as well. Waitresses are attentive.

Enchiladas and a margarita. Yummy. Had lunch here while I waited for my dog to be groomed down the road at Hair of the Dog. Lovely service and cheerful atmosphere. Food was great.

Fantastic Mexican food! Great service! Try the shrimp Diablo, it's really great. We also love the enchiladas here. The sauces are authentic and taste great.

Great Mexican restaurant; I would definitely recommend! Fast, friendly service. Dine in (indoor or patio seating) or takeout. The prices are a bit high for the location but easily one of the best, if not the the best Mexican food in Santa Rosa.

Been here many times and each time the food is excellent. I have ordered many different items over the years and all have been tasty. Today I had the carnitas taco on homemade tortillas. The meat was juicy, crunchy, and full of flavor. I also had a side order of the refried beans. Creamy and full of flavor. My friend had the chicken burrito. It was huge and had been grilled so the tortilla was not mushy. We both also had the jasmine tea drink. Not too sweet and very tasty. Yum! Can't wait to go back.

Can y'all add the 'comments' section back to your online ordering for Ubereats? I cant say 'no lettuce/lechuga,' so I won't be ordering any more of your amazing super burritos unless it's in person. C'mon please

Never disappointed with their street mini tacos and to die for frijoles!! Always our spot for tacos

This is their small shrimp cocktail, so good. Always delicious at La Texanita, they're the best

Not it at all. Most expensive and worse tasting homemade tortilla tacos around. Food came quick and the service was great but the food is not good at all, bland and boring. It's also on the pricey side. Never again.

The service was great, food came out fast. However, I ordered Menudo, and all I got was Tripe, lots of Tripe in soup. If you go for the menudo, better ask them to add Hominy. I've never been served menudo without Hominy.

Food was not the greatest. Was over priced, I went there with my husband and three kids . They charged gratuity for kids and didn't say anything. Service was good.

This is my go to place for Mexican Food in Santa Rosa. I love the festive building with the beautiful art inside. The staff are always attentive and friendly. And usually we're seated quite quickly unless the place is packed (which on occasion it will be). Food is prepared to order and arrives piping hot to your table. I love their salsas and their homemade tortillas. May I also suggest you try one of their Mechaladas if you're in the mood. They are fantastically made and so refreshing after a long days work. Enjoy!

I had been here before. Probably in 2016 or '17. It was a moderately busy day and I had a regular chicken burrito wet with verde sauce. It was quite good. I remember I got it to go just in case I couldn't finish it. The most noteworthy memory was when they had to refill the tortilla chip dispenser and some little girl got up on one of the chairs and filled the reservoir. I thought that was so funny, because there were taller ladies working there. Jump to today. Slightly rainy, Covid concerns so outdoor seating. I was greeted quickly and there were 4 tables occupied out of 9 or so. Nice!. I told the waitress that I knew what I wanted and didn't need the menu. She said great and took my order for a Pacifico (in a bottle) and Chicken Fajitas. They came in no time just the way I ordered them...Flour tortillas and no tomatoes. Oh, about the chips. Obviously house made corn chips, but they brought out a salsa that actually had some heat to it along with a guacamole sauce. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of heat the salsa provided. Also....Nice! The fajitas arrived. Full platter of them along with beans, rice and a salad and 3 tortillas. I dove right in.... Ok, the fajitas didn't have what I felt was the traditional taste I look for in fajitas, but I didn't find them prepared wrong, by any means. They were tasty and the peppers and onions were a combination of sauteed and slightly underdone. The beans weren't my favorite style. You can see in the photos how they were done, but the rice was really good. I even ate part of the salad, something I rarely do. The size of the pieces of chicken were small and thin. I found some of them to be slightly dry and a some were bit crunchy. For some reason I didn't find that a big deal...I continued to eat them anyway. I just would have liked them to be a bit juicier overall. My wait gal was Fernanda, and I struck up a convo with her while she (tried to eat) had her lunch. Turns out that she was the little lady I had seen filling the tortilla chip machine a few years back. I asked he why she was the one chosen to do that task since there were other taller ones who could've done it without standing on a chair. She just said she didn't know while raising her shoulders...Precious. Overall a really nice lunch...Missed Alma though...

I was born in SR and I have tried just about every restaurant in the county, to say that this is the best Mexican food I have had in Sonoma County is an understatement. The Al Pastor tacos are made with USDA Prime, the beans are to die for and the rice is fluffy and flavored perfectly. The staff is incredible and always welcoming and friendly. If you have not had a chance to stop by here and grab a bite to eat.... take the time you will not be disappointed at all.

Tacos were so delicious. I also enjoyed the rice and beans. For the tacos, I got steak tacos and the meat was so flavorful. The salsa, rice, and beans were delicious as well. Great place.

Hungry for Authentic Mexican Food? Found La Texanita by chance and then I learned that they were featured in the Food Network in one of the episodes of Global Grub, a show hosted by Guy Fieri a native of Santa Rosa (Watch it here: http://fw.to/2nSyU6f) La Texanita is small, but don't let the size fool you! The food that comes out of their kitchen is delicious. On this day I was starving for eggs so I had their Huevos Rancheros, but got to sample their Carnitas too; delicious! Of course I could not get out of there before trying their flan! Folks, they make flan the way flan should be made; not to boild, not too sweet, and covered with just the right amount of melted sugar syrup. I must stop there again to try more items off the menu, but I can already tell that I will not be disappointed. If you are in Santa Rosa and craving Mexican, try La Texanita Restaurant!

Been coming here for years now. I guess my yelp game is slippin'... Where to start... this place makes amazing enchilada sauce both the red n green are amazing! They make some really good wet burritos. I prefer to get the lengua with red sauce. It's one of my favorites. They also make great enchilada verdes, fish tacos, and Chile rellenos. I can't really remember a bad meal I've had here. The beer is always ice cold and everything they do is good... For being in such a heavily populated Mexican food area, they stand out as among the best to me! Give em a try... I bet you'll be back!

Everything about this place was amazing. We tried La Texanita based on a recommendation and it was great. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and sat immediately. We tried the chorizo quesadilla, chicken, beef and potato tacos, and the carnitas dinner plate. Everything was delicious. We even got a little bowl of special sauce for our tacos given to us. It made a great dish even better. Everyone there is friendly and checked in on us every few minutes. It's a must try!

Best chips and salsa in town, their red salsa it incredible and the chips are house made. I wish they had some Plant Based options and hope they add some soon. I will be back for the chips and salsa.

Oh, the famous La Texanita Restaurant, which I purposely avoided for quite some time due to the mayor of flavor town approval stamp (Guy Fieri). Not that I think his choice was a incorrect one, but I have stopped at some other recommended restaurants and they did not live up to the hype he portrayed. Soap box aside, La Texanita lived up the hype, especially with its fierce competition nearby. Location, a very tough one, many Spanish (South, Central, and Northern) restaurants nearby, so it makes it a challenge to keep up with return and new customers. Competition like that is only a win for the consumer though! Stopped in on a Sunday, packed (Parking and all), so I had a little of a wait, but nothing to bad. Do not expect a lavish restaurant here folks, this is more of a traditional Mexican restaurant that many locals have grown up with. Menus tatty, old plastic cups for water, tables painted multiple times over, sign me up! These are the places ones need to eat if looking for that authentic Mexican cuisine. Anyways, onto the food, my family member went with the Chicken Enchiladas and I ended up with the Bisteco Ranchero, both extremely affordable. The meals took a little to show up due to probably the mass of people they were feeding, but the wait was worth it! The food was terrific and plentiful, basically only needed to eat that meal for the day as they served soooo much food. Basically in and out within an hour, so no complaints there and would gladly recommend this fine establishment for anyone looking for some good Mexican cuisine if in the area.

The hominy in the pozole was raw, the meat in the pozole was like boiled carnitas, the burrito was the size of a kid burrito, they forgot my cheese and the quesadilla was super small as well. Bill was the biggest item of todays visit at texanita. The bill and the dissapointment. Prolly my last visit.

Enjoy coming here. One of the best mexican restaurants in Santa Rosa. Friendly staff.

Yum! Best Mexican food on that side of town. Tip: try their delicious tacos in their homemade tortillas. Life changing!

Very good will be coming by soon again! Never disappointed here!! I e had a little bit of everything,

I was so happy when La Texanita opened in Graton! The food is so good. I am in love with the carne asada tacos. The asada is seasoned perfectly. It is a bit pricey because of the location, but it is well worth it.
