La Parrilla Yucatan Mexican Food

So much flavor! All staff appeared to be happy and all guests seemed to be well taken care of. When we eventually make it back out this way again we will definitely be stopping in at LA Parrilla!

Great family owned restaurant with a wide variety of delicious food at very reasonable prices and amazing service, as well. Highly recommend.

Horrible/terrible service by our waitress. Went for dinner on Sunday 24 April 2022. We were a party of three. The place was not busy. We have been there numerous of times and this time we received extremely poor service by the assigned waitress. We placed our order within ten minutes. We waited a long time for chips and salsa until we flagged down one of the other servers. When the food came there still was no silverware . We waited, however, the waitress did not bring it. We attempted to get her attention several times as she passed by the table but she ignored us. Again we flagged down a different server for silverware. Yes our food was getting cold. Our waitress did have time to attend others tables and have conversations with those customers. All in all her demeanor was lacking of what is expected and anticipated from a person in the restaurant environment. Her attitude was extremely unfriendly. When she brought the check was the only time she smiled and was efficient and rapid in collecting payment. The other two servers which we had to flag down were very professional with all customers. Some people require training in order to be successful in the food industry. This is the responsibility of the owner and management. The other two servers were very attentive when flagged

La Parrilla served me the best taco I had during a 3-day weekend taco run in Ventura County last year. The restaurant's extensive menu of Yucatán-inspired seafood dishes, vaporcitos, panuchos, and molcajetes ought to be carefully explored by locals. I consider large menus to carry inherent risk, as there are more opportunities for one to order the wrong thing, but this possibility seems unlikely at La Parrilla given the quality of what they have served me. La Parrilla's "Cochinita Pibil Taco" ($4.00) is the kind of taco that lets us forget the human struggle for a few minutes, and provides ample evidence that La Parrilla is the real deal. The restaurant's silky cochinita pibil guisado practically dissolves on your tongue, as tender chunks of pork barely clutch on to buttery bits of fat in a recaudo rojo that perfectly balances a salvo of warm chilis with a delightfully sour tickle of citrus. The taco's white corn tortilla (which can be upgraded to a handmade tortilla at additional cost) is wrapped around its contents, steamed from the decadent stew within, and then sprinkled with pickled onions and crumbled queso, inviting a spoon-and-knife approach. Carefully pour on some of La Parrilla's exquisite gut-melting pinkish salsa and prepare yourself for NSFW repercussions. You may also enjoy La Parrilla's take on the "Baja-Style Fish Taco" ($4.95), as here the generously-sized flaky white fish filet is covered in an ultra-crunchy golden fried batter, and then dressed with pico de gallo, sliced avocado, bitter strips of red & white cabbage, and a punchy chile cream sauce. A lightly grilled tortilla is just sturdy enough to hold the taco's bulging contents in place for your ingestion.
