Reviews of La Bamba Mexican Cafe (Restaurant)

Debbie Hoover

Disappointed in the food - not much flavor. Chips and salsa were good and the atmosphere looked authentic.

Dennis Frank

Terrible food, slow service, terrible customer service

William Driggers

Great timr

April Westberry

Love it! Good food and a smoking section. Just an update: still great. Great food, great drinks, great service. It's by far my favorite Mexican restaurant in Enterprise or Dothan.

Krista Howell

The BEST cheese dip in town. Chips are good too. The employees are nice and curiosity will help with any question regarding the menu..we visit here once a week!

Tommy Curry

Food was good.

Anne C

Initial service is pretty quick, but the food came out in groups. The last one in our party of 5 waited at least 5 minutes, after everyone else got their food, to get his. Food is good, nothing fancy, but a lot to choose from

Zandra Alexander

Waiter was super friendly and funny and food was absolutely awsome and came out quickly and hot.

Timothy Toomey

Best Mexican restaurant in Enterprise! Top shelf guacamole is exceptional as is the top shelf margarita! I have always had great service and I highly recommend this restaurant!

Ross Jones

Service is always great and the food is very good too

Andy Gill

Great chips, dip and drinks. Food very good

Danny Hetherwick

Authentic Mexican food. Chips and salsa are superb. Menu is very comprehensive, lots of choices.

Adam Shaw

Taco Tuesday 99 cent, decent rest

Sheryl Vaught

Good but don't want to wait when done for box or checkout.

Christopher Deffenbaugh

Great little spot, food is amazing. This has to be one of my favorite Mexican food restaurants. I have never been disappointed with this place.

Elizabeth Commander

My margarita was all sour mix and no alcohol that I could taste. Talk about disappointing!. The food was only so-so at best. Our server, however, was amazing. I can't say enough about how awesome she was, but the food and my drink left a lot to be desired. I doubt we will be back.

Christopher

Went there on a friday at 4pm. Including us there were only 2 other tables with people. With that being said, the service was very slow. Across from our table the waiters and waitresses were chilling out talking rolling silverware. And yet we had empty water glasses and waiting to order. With so many other Mexican restaurants around. You think they would step up their game.

Bob Belote

The good is excellent. This is authentic, freshly made and not "Cisco dinning"

Anthony Salame

Awesome food for low price, great margaritas and pitchers.

Jane Ready

Try something new to eat and it was good.

Terry Heighton

We always have a great experience at La Bamba's we really like the chips because they are thin and crispy. The food is great and the wait staff is very nice and efficient.

Makenzy Long

We went here once, and the place was very cutesy decorated. I liked it. It was clean and intimate if you wanted to have a date night. The food was really delicious! Not to mention their Top Shelf Guacamole that is made fresh at the table is worth getting every time. The server was very attentive to our needs and made sure we always had everything we needed and wanted.

Cecily Ray

ordered on phone and the forgot cheese dip and did shredded chicken instead of fajita chicken (what i ordered) :(

Matthew C

Fast service and great food!

Dean Jeffers

The people are nice, food is ok.

Clint Grantham

It's an Alabama must at least once. The food is good and just like grandma used to make. The wait is worth it at least once. Tradition matters.

Lois Lunsford

Good for those who like Mexican food, but don't like it really spicy. Great service.

Jessi Croson

This place has amazing food. The staff is super quick and on top of their duties. The only downside is they allow smoking in the bar and it does travel out into the rest of the restaurant.

David Jonas

I've been coming here since 2005. It has stayed consistently good for 15+ years. There's even a neat little bar off to the side where I think the only thing on the television is fútbol. I almost always order the chimichanga amiga and have never been disappointed. I can't say much more other than it's been a favorite of mine and I have consistently returned for years. They've gotta be doing something right!

Robert Clemmons

The experience was nice . The staff was very friendly and helpful. It was clean and I have to say the food was excellent love me some taco Tuesday.

Kerri Goembel

Exceptional food and service! One of my favorite places in town to visit.

Nancy Herring

Took my daughter there for her birthday dinner.. The appetizers came at the same time as the food.. None of the meals were made to order and the service was slow.. The restaurant was dirty and nobody seem to have any pride in their food or service.. Totally ruined her birthday meal!!

Shawn Chandler

Food was nasty and had hair in food

Philip Briggs

The décor is pretty standard for a family owned Mexican restaurant - bright, warm colors and natural materials. Booth and table seating is available allowing for larger groups (unsure if there is bar seating). Stopped in only once for dinner while traveling and it was pretty good. The menu is standard Mexican fare and the food I ordered (the enchiladas) was tasty. The waitress and waiter that served us were kind and attentive. Altogether good but not amazing. The only issue we had was with the host. Paying separately was some what of a trial.

garren diotalevi

Good food, good drink, good people. Need to work on checkout a little bit. Took me over 20 minutes waiting in line. Granted it was cinco de mayo but still.

Walter Exantus

Not a fan of their food, bland tasting food.

Kelsie Mercado

I've been to this restaurant many times and the service is always fast and the waiters always polite. The food and cheese dip is great and now I have the privilege of working here which lets me see behind the scenes and even behind it all, everything is still good. Clean people and good service. And good clean cooking. Everything is made fresh. If you had a bad experience in the past, please come back and try us again. I've worked in other restaurants and this is by far my favorite. I speak both fluent English and Spanish

Ret MSgt Barnes

Great food. Good service

Kenneth S

The food here is pretty good, not always the most authentic, more American Mexican but still good food. Sometimes when it isn't busy the service isn't that great, other times the service is amazing nonetheless the food is always good

Matt Koehler

Best Mexican restaurant in the area. They have a large menu and also have lunch specials. Definitely recommend the queso with the chips.

Samuel Lynon

The restaurant was okay. It's been over 10 years since I have been here. It seems to be okay.

Beverly Burcham

Lots of chips and dip, and the entrees are more than enough Really good.

Febra McGuire

Creepy people that works there

Cecilia Martin

Such a nice little gem! Authentic food at a great price

Julia Vanhoolandt

Family owned and run. Very nice relaxed atmosphere for everyone and the best Mexican food around! Nice bar too.

Rebecca LaCoe

Best Mexican place in town. I eat here at least twice a month. great food, fast and friendly service.

Jane Guisinger

Bad experience!

S Popovich

Great local restaurants

Sharon Godwin

Really enjoyed the Cozumel Medley. 14.95 but worth every penny.

Dana Winston

Very cozy and food and service is awesome

eraisys herrera

Worst customer service ever! The lady literally screamed at her boss that she was quitting because there was a confusion on what kind of guacamole we wanted.

Just Madisyn

Amazing love the new bartender Deanna

K Low123

Chips & salsa good,Cheese dip the best in town.Foods good.Service is great,but be careful using a debit card. They tried to charge my husband $400 more than the meal cost. Luckily he caught it. Use cash and enjoy your meal!

Amanda Kennedy

It was not very busy, but I do not understand why. Our server was amazing he was everything a server is supposed to be. He seated us, and we never had to wait long to be taken care of, he was very prompt. The owner even came over and made great conversation with my husband and me. We felt like family. And when the food came out the presentation was fantastic, but the overall taste blew our minds, mind you we have worked for Mexican restaurants in the past for a while, so we know the foods. But we had never experienced the food the way they prepared it. We will be back many times. We have found out favorite restaurant.

WolfMan205

Great food. A must stop in Enterprise.

Joseph DeSilva

This is our favorite Mexican restaurant. Of the three in the area this is our favorite. Margarita's are great. Happy hour just when we like to have dinner.

Marina R

I have already moved to another state, but I still remember this wonderful restaurant and its employees! Very tasty food and great service!

Ed Lawrence

Good-tasting food served quickly at an inexpensive price.

Brenda Breland Sims

Wonderful salsa and delicious thin chips! Most of the similar restaurants in town need to take a lesson from them on how to prepare such great chips. Dined with a large group of friends, and the service was great. The chicken in my fajita quesadilla was perfectly prepared, juicy and flavorful. They also handcraft at your table what they call Top Shelf Guacamole.

Joe P

Very much a fixture in town, this restaurant has everything you would expect in a hometown Mexican restaurant. The prices are very reasonable and while brisk, the staff is friendly. Not necessarily the best Mexican restaurant in the area, but a good contender.

Wilbur Robinson

Great place too eat

Amanda Grantham

Great as always

Kristina Roark

Food is great, but the salsa is not. The guacamole they make at the table is excellent.

Marie Harris

Food and service was wonderful very good atmosphere

Barbara Cook

Lori L. Ferguson

"Food was Good!!"

Chester Quick

Service and food were very good here.

Jack Herbert

Wonderful owners / great employees / food is second to none. Price is a little low for the amount of food served and delicious at that. NEVER GO TO OZARK WITHOUT STOPPING TO CHOW DOWN.

JaNae Thomas

The top shelf guacamole is divine and made right in front of you.

Amanda Payne

So good! We will be back! Great portions and great price!

Aaron Franklin

Good good . service

Katie Adkison

Really good American style Mexican food. The menu has a huge selection and there are really reasonable lunch specials. The atmosphere is comfortable and quiet. The service was phenomenal. The waitor checked on us at regular intervals throughout the meal. I highly recommend this place.

Mark Faulkner

Good food & prices!

Kelsey Kohl-Timko

Although the staff was nice, the waitress couldn't understand most of what we were saying or asking. And they were not very accommodating. We asked to substitute different things and they said no. Never had a restaurant that blatantly just said no or wouldn't allow us to get something that was literally on the menu as an option in the same number. Probably won't be going again.

Jennifer Small

They fell off bad... They always get your order wrong and staff is not so nice anymore.

michael hunt

Fantastic tacos. Fast friendly service.

Tony Killingsworth

Very hot inside ask 3 times if air Conditioners were working....response was I'll check on it.....ordered sweet tea to drink never got any refill at all....when food arrived the waiter pushed my had out of his way ....before I got close to the LORD I would had punched him In The face !!! TOREROS across from college is so much better ...I will not go back to labamba in Enterprise ..very bad Experience !!!

A Guided Light

The food was okay and the service was blah. The other Mexican restaurants in the area are better choices.

Bernadine Bierkortte

Ok food but great service

Justin Bowley

Ordered food by phone for pick-up. The business had more employees than customers so the service was extremely quick. The cashier was polite. The food was still hot when I got home and tasted well. Only gave 4 stars due to asking for no guacamole on one of the meals and getting a large Ice cream scoop of it on top anyhow.

Daniel Hobbs

Taco Tuesday is great

GOREYOUS MAXIMUS

Excellent food. Excellent service. Amazing atmosphere and great music. Overall, wish I could give 6 stars.

Cathy Catrett

We love this restaurant. Another of my hometown Mexican restaurants. Take our family there.

Maryann Odom

Waiter was awesome and other waiters too. Spoke to my granddaughters with love, care and respect for their learning of Spanish. We were treated as family and food was delicious.

Allen Harris PRS

Great taco Tuesday

Samantha Lee

Great lunch prices

Jordan Jump

Excellent food, good atmosphere, an excellent service

jamie h

I usuallt order Beef Chimichanga...I always get a nice sliced beef....well they have turned to using cheap ground beef.... guess I have to find a new place to eat...it was nasty

Jade Eldridge

Ground Meat was full of grease and tasted like dog food

Angel Aguirre

When I was stationed at Fort Rucker, I was disappointed to know that there wasn’t a decent Mexican restaurant in this area and was unsure bout this place. But, I was won over. This place is the closest thing to Mexican food from back home in AZ. The food is seasoned well and quite tasty, service is awesome, place is clean, price is reasonable, and employees are extremely friendly and professional. I was a returning customer when I lived in the area. I recommend this place to anybody in the Enterprise/Daleville/Ozark/Fort Rucker area. AND, I recommend their Michelada drink; they actually know how to make delicious micheladas.

Andrew Giostri

Best tortilla chips I've had in a while, salsa was very good too. The restaurant is very well decorated, friendly staff and the food was Delicious!!!!!!

Collette Barnes

Just not as good as other Mexican restaurants.

ᏆᎾᏗᎣᎭ O.o

Amazing. Loved it so much and was sad to leave it when I moved from the area. The service was fast and the salsa amazing.

Britney Wallace

Our taco Tuesdays

Vonnie Owens

Really good food and drinks. The staff is always fast & friendly. I go to this one pretty often. Always good!! Great Sangria & Margaritas!

CC91

Food was great for the price and the server was nice. Happy hour Margaritas were $1.99, but tasted like pure mix.

casey golden

Great food awesome price. Drinks where delicious

Karem Awad

Really good food , love the service there , good prices

Beth-Ashli Hamby

Couldn't tell you anything about their food. Was told they delivered and whoever answered the phone said they didn't so I tried to order for pick up instead and he just hung up on me. If it's too difficult to take a phone call, I can't see the rest of their service being worth paying for.

John Law

"Fajitas" Steak And Chicken!! ABSOLUTELY THE BEST In Enterprise! Ordered Carryout,Was Ready In 10 Min.

Stacey Luck

Great food, awesome service.

Charles Barber

Dining area a little warm

Jeana Cain

Kyyote

charles Byrd

This place is great. Good drinks and food.

Donnie Skinner

Great food,people, and fast service!!!

Malissa Benefield

I ordered there nachos for dinner, and it was delivered to my door by Take out star. LaBamba is one of several restaurants that has partnered up with take out star delivery service. My nachos were really delicious and had a generous amount of toppings. Tons of the shrimp, steak and chicken as well.

Steve Blackburn

Good place to eat

Jamie Cook

Always love going there. Never had a bad meal

Myroan Brown

Good place to eat

Jeff Watson

Order was burnt but they corrected it promptly without question and made good on it. Just not sure why they brought it out to start since it was so obvious.

Mrs. Miller

Horrible customer service. We have been loyal customers since we moved her 2 years ago. We order food to go from them once a week. They didn’t completely pack all of my order. When I called, the manager was very rude and arrogant. We don’t exactly live around the corner and have have to pack up 3 kids just to come back for something they forgot and have to be scolded like a child? How about an old fashioned apology instead of chewing me out for your mistakes. Sorry La Bamba, you just lost another customer.

Carrie Breashears

To Go order- 1st tried calling to place 5 times but then man answering did not know English (well not enough to understand me) so he would just hang up on me each time. When placing order in store, who I think was the same man, proceeded to let 4 other people go ahead of me in the middle of my ordering! Then he would answer the phone speaking spanish ignoring me. When I was finally able to complete my order he didn't even take it to the kitchen for 15 minutes. The food prep only took about 15 minutes, but because of this man I (8 yr old in tow) was there for an hour total! I was not rude at all so this wasn't a case of getting what I deserve. This man was just not suited to be up front working. The food was good so this was a case of poor management.

LISA PINTO

The food is gross.

Renz Deguzman

This is my favorite Mexican restaurant in town! My fiancé and I are regulars here. The food and service are always great at a very affordable price. I love the setting and ambience in there and they always start you off with freshly made nachos and nice salsa dip. Try La Bamba in Enterprise and you won't regret it.

Nathaniel Alvarado

Good food and service

Leslie Smith

All the workers in the restaurant are rude and look like they are mad that they have to serve you. Food was not all that good. Had to ask for more chips three times before we got any. Will not be eating there anymore, and I’ve been eating there for years.

Tom Styles

Good food and service

Kurt Bensch

food is usually pretty good here. just wish the lighting was a bit brighter. been going here since 2004 and the food has stayed consistently good throughout the years.

Brandy Cruz

Great food, great service and the BEST queso ever!!!

Bruce Watson

Very good food, love Taco Tuesday!!!

Paula Rounds

Love the food... we road up here for a date...

Shelia Baltimore

Was at La Bamba's last night and the experience was not a pleasant one. Customer service is horrible. When were seated no one took our order. One of the employees were sitting at the bar taking a break. She appeared to be eating.When she noticed that we were not served, she made a gesture implying that she was on the way. When she arrived, she explained that someone from the kitchen was susposed to take our order. However, they were busy with other orders, according to the worker. Hmm, Imagine that! I ordered a Margarita that tasted like mixer only and I had to ask for chips and salsa. Will NEVER return and will not recommend this place.

Krista Joiner

Love La Bambas! It’s my favorite place to eat!!

kitt cat

Their food is great but their customer service is terrible! When you call to place an order, they act like you are bothering them, the man got upset because he didn't understand what I said and yelled at me, HUNG UP ON ME AND MY HUSBAND. They are never polite when you call to order food, which I don't get because customer service is half the experience when you go out or order food. Oh yeah, the phone will just ring and ring too when you try to call back, even though he literally just hung up on you. Don't have to worry about us bothering them anymore.

TimCaddell NonameTaxi

They deliver using the Takeoutstar app.

Dylan Yelverton

It's never to crowded great margarita and descent food

Sunshine Ormsby

Love the birthday celebration and food is great

Lindsay Cheek

Good food, and fast service. I think I will try ordering something different next time. I got the flautas. It was 4 of them and a big pile of lettuce, some sour cream/guacamole. I think I'd prefer something more filling.

Lana-Mae Foulkes

Horrible experience. So we walked in before a white couple and got seated. The lady dropped the chips and salsa she didn’t say anything. So the white couple get seated across from us the waiter took their drink orders and then came back and took out orders. Mind you were still sitting eating our chips with no waiter nothing. The waiter went to put their order in and didn’t even come back to us. So we sat and waited a bit more and no one came so I said let’s go. I would say a racist experience. Will never be going back

Shannon McNabb

Food and service were very good. I had the lunch steak with rice and beans. My only disappointment is that the booth was in need of repair. Not very comfortable.
