My boyfriend & I's favorite place to go for his steak tacos and I get the shrimp fajitas. So delicious, the lady is very sweet and gives good service every time. We always leave stuffed to the core. Only thing is they close at 5 so every time we want it for dinner we can't. Which sucks but they open @8am so I understand.

At first I wasn't sure if this place was even open as all the reviews I saw on Yelp and google appeared to be several years old. There was a line when we got there (around noon) which I feel is usually a sign of tasty food. The tortilla chips were so yummy with a flavorful seasoning and delicious salsa. The service was quick and the food was great. While the interior leaves something to be desired, everything seemed clean and the food was great!

Definitely a hidden gem. I drive past here almost daily and never payed attention to it. Definitely recommend it was soooo good

Best Mexican food in Aurora IL shrimp quesadilla was so good I turned around and bought another one !

Great food for a great price. They have good tacos but what I usually get is their quesadillas! They are delicious! It's cheese, meat(I particularly enjoy the shrimp) pico, and they must throw in some sour cream because these babies as so melty and creamy. I've recommended this place to loads of people and they always say although it's no the best looking place from the outside the food is amazing! If you're in the area by give it a try

This place is delicious! Tried it with friends who are new to the area and it's definitely a great find, and going to be a place we have to go every time we're back for a visit. Food is simple and authentic. There's a small back room if you're eating in, and a really convenient carry out window. We ate in the back room where there was a waitress available- though we were admittedly a little confused and ordered at the window.

I have been here a couple of times now. They get -1 star because their tacos are not the best. The meat is good but they use horrible tortillas. They use something like Mission or whatever it is. The tortillas are super white and have that funky taste. If they were to use tortillas from Atotonilco or Milagro, their tacos would be really good. Here is the reason I am writing this review. I absolutely love a good Torta de Milanesa and this place has one of the best I have ever had. It is a good portion and the meat is soft. I hate it when you have to pull or yank on the milanesa and this place has a really tender milanesa. Bottom line, they get 4*. The Torta de Milanesa is a must have!!

When it's national burrito day... you go get yourself a dang burrito! And that I did. I was crunched for time and needed a quick lunch, but wanted my burrito adventure to still be a 4 star plus experience - which is where Taqueria La Sierra comes in. I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical by the looks of the place when I pulled up, but Mexican food magic is seriously going on inside that kitchen. Their menu is straightforward and posted largely on the wall with some pictures included. Burritos are $6.99 and include your choice of meat plus lettuce, tomato, sour cream, beans, cilantro, and cheese. I choose steak and my husband went with chicken. We placed our order to go but they do have some tables if you choose to dine in. Our burritos were hot, bagged, and ready to go in like 5 minutes! I appreciate that the burritos are wrapped in paper and foil so nothing get spilled. Plus, they were still hot by the time we got home. I'm almost embarrassed to admit that I devoured the entire burrito because these babies are huge! So delicious though. They were packed full of fresh ingredients and stuffed to the brim. I liked the red and green salsas we were given as well. My only complaint was that the sour cream was all in one side of the burrito, so once I got to the bottom it was pretty soggy. That may have been from travel or maybe the way it was made, not sure. Taqueria La Sierra offers all the favorite authentic Mexican dishes you could want and since I only live like five minutes away, I look forward to coming back!

I am a big fan of La Sierra. I have been stopping by for a Mexican treat, whenever I am in the area, for years. My favorites are the chicken or pork quesadilla with everything, mmm... fresh off the grill, so much flavor and crispy around the edges. The chicken and pork tacos are also great. If you are ever in the mood for Mexican breakfast, La Sierra is the place. The Huevos a la Mexicana is my fave, scrambled jalapeño and onion eggs with refried beans, consistently perfect well seasoned hashrowns and flour tortillas. Don't forget the chips and guacamole, the chips are made to order and topped with seasoning salt. All that being said, the Carne asada is not my favorite here, (go somewhere else for that)sort of bland for my taste.
