The food for me was average… nothing special about it. It lacked the flavour I was looking for. The steak was spicy which I enjoyed but that was about it. I would’ve liked it a bit better if the tortilla had more of a crunch to it. It’s also expensive for tacos. Our total bill for 2 tacos was 175AED - not worth it for the taste. I’m not saying it’s bad by any means, I’m just saying it wouldn’t be on my top Mexican places in Dubai.

Another thing we didn’t like is the employee asking if we wanted to tip. This is a given that most people tend to do especially when they enjoy the food and service so to ask us before even had a chance to pay was a no for us.

????????Lila Taqueria - A Foodie's Paradise! ????????

????️ On a rainy Saturday afternoon, I stumbled upon Lila Taqueria, and little did I know, it would be a culinary experience of a lifetime! ????????

???? The one-day event in collaboration with Dibba Bay for World's Oyster Day was an absolute treasure. I relished the wood-smoked Dibba Bay oyster with the delightful green chimichurri, setting the perfect tone for an unforgettable meal. ????????

???? But the real showstoppers were the Smoked Crab Tostadas with Honey-Glazed Stone Fruit Salsa! ???????? The burst of flavors and the refreshing, light sensation left me craving for more. They are undoubtedly a taste sensation that dances on the tongue! ????????

???????? Every bite was a blissful journey: Baja-Style Crunchy Fish, Chipotle-Honey Grilled Shrimp, and the exquisite Gringa de Camarón - each one showcasing the skillful craftsmanship of the chefs! The flavors were a symphony of ecstasy for the palate. ????????

???? The Al Pastor, a mouthwatering spit-roasted lamb taco available only from 3pm until it’s sold out, was like a culinary unicorn - rare, magical, and totally enchanting! ????✨

???? I also had the most beautifully made churros I have ever had in Dubai. Perfect balance of sweet and salty, crunchy and soft. ????????????

???? What amazed me even more was their dedication to sourcing locally, delivering authentic Mexican cuisine from Mexico right to Dubai. ???????????????? This commitment to quality and taste made every dish a celebration of Mexican culture, right in the heart of Dubai.

???? Special shoutout to the incredible staff - Louis and Herley - who took care of us with warmth and professionalism. ???????? And a heartfelt thank you to the manager, who exemplified understanding and true hospitality! ????????

???????????????????? This is not just a restaurant; it's an experience that nourishes your soul with flavors and hospitality that transcend boundaries! A place where food becomes art and dining transforms into a gastronomic journey. ????✈️

???????? So, if you want your taste buds to dance with delight and your heart to be filled with joy, look no further than Lila Taqueria! ???????? Trust me, this place is more than a restaurant - it's a foodie's paradise! ????????

I can not add more then FOOD IS BEYONG YOUR EXPECTATION!!!!! Unbelievable how good this steak was. Unfortunately didn’t try more options because the steak was already 650g. We thought it will be enough, and it was.. perfect for two people. Also we had a dessert. And it was the best so far from anywhere in the world that I tried churros before. Like seriously. Melting in your mouth.

I mean…I’ve had better Mexican food. I may have given more stars if the prices were cheaper. The food isn’t worth the price if you’ve had really good Mexican food before. The queso wasn’t bad and the churros were really good but everything else was just ok. The service was great and the place is nice but as soon as we walked up the steps, there was a bad smell from the bathroom that lingered even while we ate which made the food a little less enjoyable as well.

Seriously if you want an authentic Mexican tacqueria, look no further. The best tacos, proper corn, home-made tortilla chips made in-house, tomatillo salsa verde, and more. No place like it in the Middle East.

delicious mexican restaurant on jumeirah road. the place is quite small so seating is limited. the staff is friendly and welcoming. the menu is also limited but varied enough and so delicious. we started with the chips, salsa, and guac. the chips were large and a little under-salted but the salsas were flavorful with a good kick of spice. the tacos were the stars of the dinner for sure. the shrimp taco was mildly spicy and flavorful. the roasted lamb was spicier, juicy, and slightly sweet with the pieces of pineapple. tacos come in sets of 3 but it would be nice if you could mix-match to try more tacos. to drink, the paloma was refreshing with a kick of spice from the jalapeño. we ended the night with the churros that were fresh, hot, crunchy, and served with a salted caramel sauce to dip. so good!! definitely would come back to try more off the menu!

We saw an add for this place on IG and decided to try it out. The food was good but it wasn't the best mexican food I've had. The prices are very expensive with very small portions. Also, all authentic mexican restaurants give free chips and salsa. That wasn't offered here. I spent 650AED for 4 people. There is also a bad smell coming from the bathroom so we couldn't get too comfortable while eating.

A must-try hidden gem on Beach Road. The menu might seem limited, but there is really something for everyone including options for vegetarians and little ones. Food was tasty, staff was very friendly and they offer valet parking. Don’t forget to leave space for churros!
