He asked for Messican

All their Tex/Mex dishes are made with Velveeta, they are disgusting. People go there to drink, which can be a good time, but there are better places to go if you want Mexican or Tex/Mex.
Things must have changed since I've been there. People used to always rave about it. I was never a huge texmex fan so I never really used my own judgement on the place. Just went when others wanted to go.

We never went much, I only had rabbit when I did. Maybe thats why i never thought it was horrible. Like I said earlier though, I never chose to go there.

Lafondas is a testament to the powers of tequila and
how it can make the blind see and bad food
taste great.

I don't think they even put tequila in their margaritas, it's everclear. Which would further support your theory.

Aztecas is pretty solid.

I recommend Coyote Blues as well. It is kid friendly and the food is really good.
I agree that La Fonda has seen better days...

2Paul's is my new favorite spot in Laffy.
ETA: It's not Mexican, but they feature their own pepper jelly sauce with their BBQ, and what kid wouldn't like a side of mac and cheese?

Where is that?
CC, it is the shooping center by chuck e cheese. On the Johnston St. end of the strip mall. It is pretty good.

Bella Figura on Kaliste Saloom is the best Italian resturant in Lafayette. I tried Immonellis (sp) and it was not good and way over priced.
