“ I surprised myself, easily polishing off this enormous entree and a generous margarita (made with a smile by the charming young man who took our order). The style and vibe remind me of the excellent Mexican restaurants thriving down in San Diego. The food was just as good as it looked. Highly recommend. ”
“ Always a solid experience at La Bonita. Counter service staff was friendly and helpful despite being busy. Solid salsa selection, chips salsa and pico were on point! Loved my green chicken enchiladas, beans were perfect too, all at a decent price point, helps my company was muy Bonita! ”
“ Best Chimichangas EVER!!! I’d also eaten the fish taco and it was so refreshing. They have great sauces and the service is A-1. ”
“ La Bonita is amazing! We LOVE their basics - Their Rice and Beans are so good. High quality ingredients, consistently awesome food, great staff. We’ve been coming here for years. Thank you la bonita!! ”
“ Amazing Mexican restaurant! Food is incredibly tasty and non-pretentious, probably at the top of any Mexican restaurant that I have visited outside of Mexico. You enter, order at the front and wait for your food to be ready to pick it up at the same place you ordered. Has a salsa bar and all the sauces I tried were top notch in flavor, the green is mild and give a good acidic taste, the habanero one is super tasty and kicks it up a notch on the spicy deparment. We tried enchiladas, carne asada tacos, adobada tacos (al pastor), chicken taquitos (flautas). All were delicious and the tortillas are quite good! All the necessary points for a great Mexican restaurant are covered at La Bonita! ”
“ Decided to stop in to La Bonita, Alberta for a quick birthday meal for our good friend Brad. The wait was minimal and the front of the house folks were amazing. Our Margaritas and the Paloma were on point and went perfectly with our meal. Everything tasted amazing and there wasn’t a crumb left on our plates. Go check them out ”
“ Nice little Mexican restaurant that is cozy and homely. I’ve only ever ordered the Garden Burrito and Guacamole w/chips and they are great. That’s a huge burrito that can serve 2 and it’s far from being a flavorless vegetarian item. It really is a good mix of black beans, rice, carrots, spinach, squash, cheese, corn and more. The place is small and they serve the food out fast, hot, and fresh. Nothing fancy but good food at a very reasonable price. ”
“ Unassuming little Mexican joint that has some really great food. We got there and it was packed on a Saturday, it still only took around 15 minutes for us to get our food. If you are looking for some excellent Mexican food in the area I would give them a shot ”
