La Terraza Mexican Restaurant - Defuniak Springs (FL)

3 /5 Robb Brown: Different !!! I walked in and thought I was in a grocery store, then saw some tables up front (see photo). Authentic? Maybe! I’m used to TexMex, so I didn’t really like it. The waitress was very sweet but barely understood English. The chicken enchiladas were literally shredded chicken rolled in a flour tortillas. Any extra ingredients were a light garnish on top. A layer of tomato paste (almost made it taste Italian), then very light garnish of onions, etc. The rice was average, and I don’t like beans so no eval there (see photo). The 7UP bottle was not English label, kinda cool (see photo). Beef tacos to go, similar issues. Just beef, with a little bit of green stuff I thought was Cilantro but it didn’t have any real flavor. (Cilantro would have really helped). Beef and a few green leafy parsley?, but no lettuce no tomatoes, no cheese in the tacos. A little bit of cheese on the beans, looked like Parmesan but wasn’t, not much flavor. Side salsas in squeeze bottles had some spice. As I said, DIFFERENT ! Interesting but I personally wouldn’t go back.

5 /5 Aaron R: Absolutely Amazing food and atmosphere!!! My Mother and I had decided to go here after repeated reference of good authentic Mexican Food. The place makes you feel like you are in Mexico with good music and decorations. The owner was very nice, welcoming and proud of his business. As well he should be!! The food was hot and out quickly. Taste was amazing and authentic. With home made tortillas made right in there kitchen. Only disappointment was that I waited so long to try this place. Puts Larumbas to shame!!!

5 /5 Jake Vanderford: Food was amazing its not really in a restaurant. Its a grocery store, but if youre looking for an authentic experience, this is it!
