La Hacienda Mexican Restaurant -Food CA (Near Commerce)

5 /5 Michael Omen: this place was a pleasant surprise. . . the restaurant itself stood out as nice and modern, super clean and very lively. The staff was very friendly and the food was really good.

1 /5 Bea Mathes: The new renovation is absolutely stunning. However the beautiful building was quickly pampered by the lack of service and decline in food quality. This is our all time favorite spot to eat each time we come to Commerce. The service in the past was always top notch, and the food has never disappointed until today. The food was cooked incorrectly, and we didnt even get our drinks refilled the entire meal. Only half a tiny bowl of salsa for 3 people to share..... They werent even that busy and they sat us by a very loud drunk party who we could barely hear ourselves think over. Only one bathroom of 3 worked.... no toilet paper at all in the bathroom, even in the out of order stalls. The server told us a total, and then said oops I forgot to add the cheese dip- which he rang in as something random, and then told us a whole different total. Not a good experience we probably will try the new Mexican near Tanger next time.

1 /5 jassy russell: First the service was slow and the server acted as if we were not there and we had to flag him down the whole meal for things we needed even though the restaurant was slow. The food was severely over cooked and uneatable and basically a chocking hazard…we asked if only the meat could be taken off the bill bc we could not eat it the sever then left and did not come back until we had to flag him down again for the bill that still had the meat on it! When asked why he said the manager was not there and could not be reached. Also when paying the bill we saw 18% gratuitie which we feel was not deserved bc the service was not up to par and that is probably why the service was not good bc the servers know they will get a tip no matter what. Yes I do believe in tipping but only when it is for good service. Also when we had a complaint about the meat the server walked off smiling as if it was funny. I would not eat here again ever and I don’t recommend anyone else eat there either.

3 /5 Kim Lasalata: It wasnt busy when we entered the restaurant so there was no wait tome. The waiter was nice, although he was the only waiter on the floor, so we had to request drink refills, not a big deal at all. The food was okay, Ive had better and Ive had worse. The beans were sour tasting, but Im not sure if that was intentional due to the recipe. They have decent lunch specials, and the cheese dip was good. They didnt fill it up to the top, so I was disappointed since it was $12 for a large cheese dip.
