Description

La Cucaracha primarily functions as a restaurant and is well known for its Mexican fare. Because of this, it is busiest from 6-9pm and then really winds down. Average entrée prices range from $8-14 (they’ve also won a few food awards). The décor is festively Hispanic and the music is typically Latino. There is plenty of seating and smoking is sectioned to bar only. In the bar, music is bartender’s choice and can vary from Latino to classic rock. It is lined with large wooden booths and 50 different styles of tequila, all reasonably priced (no more than $12 a shot). The crowd is mostly older, ranging from 25-40’s who come in for the food and pinball. Overall, La Cucaracha is a good restaurant and has a good happy hour, but if you are seeking active nightly entertainment, seek somewhere else.

Terrible. I ordered guacamole tostadas. When I have had this at other restaurants, this usually includes some refried beans, cheese, guacamole, and lettuce. Nope, not here. Just guacmole spread on a tostada shell with some lettuce. It cost $10. I was not happy. It wasn't even good guacamole, it tasted like that packaged stuff you can get at the grocery store. I ordered a side of refried beans to add to it, and those were slimy. My boyfriend was also disappointed in his fish tacos. The margaritas were fine. I won't be going back. Where can I find some good, reasonably priced Mexican food in this town?
