La quebrada is a good choice for Mexican food in Aurora. Â The rice and beans are tasty and fresh. Â Tortillas are generally hand made and delicious. Â Meats are typical quality of those found at other restaurants. Â What sort of differentiates this place from others is the "salsa." Â It is served warm with chips that can at times be hard on the mouth, if you know what I mean. Â The tacos de "suadero" are very good. Â It's one of those places that you enjoy eating at and then you get a bill and you question how and why you spent so much there. Â Like I said, good choice overall but not a cheap eat. Â If you want to be adventurous, check out the food at the local flee markets!!
Review Source:This place was a total blind faith Yelp find. We need dinner, but we don't want the same old thing, so what's well rated for Mexican nearby? La Quebrada, that's what. And I don't think I would go as far as a 4 or 5, but the 3 is well deserved.
Either people are intensely picky, or this place has been renovated recently. It's definitely not dingy, and it's not dark. The inside was fine - like 90% of family run restaurants you'll go to, absolutely nothing wrong. The outside could have been a little brighter and more welcoming, but we found it anyway.
Food was good - I had the carne a la tampiquena. Very good steak - the right chewy texture, done to my preference, good salty marinade with a solid cheese enchilada in a tasty mole. The guac was...well, I wanted to eat it so bad, but it was easily 50% white onions that night, and as you probably know, that ain't my thing. What I did eat tasted good, but man, charge me more and cut down on the tears.
One of my dining companions had tacos, which I wasn't too impressed with. The al pastor was in a sort of grainy red sauce which tasted...OK, but just didn't seem right. It might be a case of knowing what to order, and maybe the al pastor isn't what you should order. Like I said, I could surely come back for the tampiquena.
Service was friendly, prices were pretty reasonable - this is absolutely worth coming back for. It's going on the list, since we all agree that El Guero closer to the house is a better brunch place, not an evening place.
