If we visit Port Adelaide a stop at La Popular Taqueria is mandatory. Dining here was like dining in someone's home. It seems to be a real family business. The tacos are delicious. The tortillas are different to any that I've had before (probably because they were made properly), soft, slightly fluffy, great taste. The fillings were all outstanding - we generally work our way through all of them. All delicious. Definitely try the frijoles (beans) that come with home made chips. Locally made beer goes so well with them.
A family managed kitchen.Beautiful homemade mexican food.Nachos with guacamole was to die for.Not a big menu,but lot of vego options.Smiling staff all around.
This place serves some of the best tacos I’ve eaten. The moment you enter the restaurant, you’re transported to some of the most Mexican things you’d expect.
Their menu is small, to be honest; but their offerings are more than sufficient. We tried all but their zucchini tacos. My favourites would include their beef steak, fish, and chicken.
It’s on the premium side of pricing, so don’t expect to have a cheap meal. But with the quality of food that comes out, you’ll be more than satisfied.
Had the feed me menu at $49 per head. A great way to try everything. Highly recommend the margaritas to go with the meal. Food was delicious and the staff were lovely.
La Popular Taqueria is up there as one of the best authentic Mexican restaurants in Adelaide.
When we visited they where busy and understaffed and still provided excellent service and fantastic quality food that was full of flavour. (so good that I ate it before taking pictures 😂)
Thank you for having us. 🙏 keep up the good work.
I’m usually not a fan of Mexican restaurants in Australia but La Popular changed my opinion, my mind and my soul! It was delicious coupled with fantastic service and more-ish margaritas! It was busy so I suggest booking a table, however, the team did whatever they could to seat us. Loved it!
Amazing Taco place that makes there own tacos in-house. You probably can’t get closer to more original Mexican food in Adelaide than this. Yummy tacos and a great selection of Mescal and Tequila. Definitely a place to highly recommend. Checkout there share menu for two it has a great selection of dishes.
A bit pricey for portion size hence the 4 stars but they are quality. I really loved the fish taco (vegetarian version substituted fish for crumbed cauliflower) very delicious. Only open for dinner so be prepared to book a table to dine in. Will definitely be back.
Very delicious tacos, guacamole and cornchips, pork crackling and salsa, margarita. Portions seem small, but a shared entree and a couple of tacos is a comfortable meal. The range of taco fillings is vast. A little too noisy inside to talk with a small group, but one on one is fine. Great atmosphere, and terrific staff. Very enjoyable and looking forward to going back. I think the feed me menu is the way to go.
