La Terraza Mexican Grill And - Mankato

We've been to La Terrazza quite a few times now, and it's always been a good experience. The atmosphere is just a little more upscale than other Mexican restaurants in the area. The food and service will not disappoint! We really love the queso fundido and fajitas, but the highlight for me is the Margarita flight! A wonderful date night spot. They do not skimp on the portions--Be prepared to take home leftovers!

The best restaurant in Mankato! This I'd my go-to place eat out. I have never had a bad plate of food, no matter what I order. The service is always top tier and is a very inviting restaurant to be in.

Lovely interior. Plenty of parking. The food was absolutely revolting. Everything was the opposite of expectation. The chips managed to be dry and greasy at the same time. Every component of the meal was bland, starchy flavorless, odd textures, even the coffee was undrinkable. This town is swamped with Mexican restaurants or pizza restaurants. Maybe change their game and level up to really make something in this place.

I visited this restaurant with my family while on family business in this town. Overall, in my opinion, the food does not justify the price. My wife ordered a Juarez plate and I ordered a parrillada tropical. The taco meat in a Taco Bell taco looks more appealing, and better tasting, than the meat in the Juarez plate taco. Honestly, it looked like smashed puppy chow. My wife didn't even finish the plate, and only took the initial bite of the taco before leaving it. The enchilada in the plate was vomitrocious. The plate didn't even include rice, (not that the rice on the other plate was great), considering that most other places do include the rice for that price. The parrillada tropical entree taste was ok, but definitely not worth the price. It came with some cheap, store bought tortillas, again, worse than the soft taco tortillas fromTaco Bell. (No offense to Taco Bell). Beans get 0 stars. Rice gets 1 star. On a positive note, I did try the shrimp cocktail which was good. My 2 teenager kids had a fajita quesadilla, and they both described feeling an unusual slimy texture. The taste was ok for them. The place has a nice look, and I was disappointed that the food was not as good as the look of the place. This was my experience. For perspective, I am hispanic, so my taste buds may be more demanding than someone who might not be used to authentic mexican cooking.

The food was very good. For our table we had beef, pork, and chicken. All of them were tender and full of flavor. The queso was also a highlight. Service was prompt and everyone was friendly.
