Best WLM Reviews

Smaller but decent sized restaurant. Great service! I didn't feel rushed reviewing the menu and ordering. Food was good. Elote & tacos were my favorite here! Good prices!
I love this place! First time coming here on my birthday and the tacos, burrito and tamales were amazing! Very friendly environment and real Mexican cuisine. Highly recommend! 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The customer service was amazing. I stopped in for lunch and the order came out very quickly. The man who helped me was very nice and patient with me as I tried to decide what I wanted to drink. He even refilled my cup before I left. The tacos and guacamole were delicious. The tacos are a little smaller so I would recommend ordering a couple more than you would normally eat. But I feel like everything was great and decently priced for what you get.
First time stopping in. Glad we did! It’s a cute little restaurant located next to the gas station. Very clean inside and there’s tables to sit down and eat at. There was also music playing in the parking lot. So it’s a vibe. We were greeted as soon as we walked in the woman was very sweet and welcoming. Her hospitality and tamales are top tier! We’ll definitely be back!
Took a while to be greeted when we walked in. It was extremely busy so I understood. Enjoyed the fact that they have outdoor seating. Once sat outside I think staff was so focused on the people inside they kind of neglected the people outside. We had to flag someone down for our table and the 2 tables next to us.
Jose was great he made sure we got our drinks and food. The food was INCREDIBLE and the margarita made me forget I was upset at first lol. Great spot, I will try again on a less busy day.
UPDATE 6/6/2023
PRICE INCREASE. PICTURES ADDED
We feel like the portion of our meals were too small for the prices they're asking for now. The "birria" tacos (really barbacoa with the broth on the side) are small and it had a small amount of meat in them. 3 tacos was not enough to fill a man, although he said the consome (broth) was good. They're small, so double it up if you want to also double the amount you pay. 3 small tacos were $9.33.
My Texas Fajita was lacking in taste and it was also small portions for the $15.60 price. The refried beans had no flavor to them, unfortunately. The rice and meat were also lacking in flavor.
My son did love his Texas burrito, though. Maybe everything mixed together tasted good. It was $12.48 just for the burrito, no sides.
The man taking the order seemed in a rush and could improve in the way he directs himself towards customers.
I will try to see if the gorditas are still good the next time we order from here. But, we were disappointed with the portion and lack of flavor.

We moved to Ola a little while ago and have been trying different restaurants in order to find a favorite. My husband is from Mexico, so he was psyched to find another restaurant to try in the area. Today, he bought 2 pork tamales, 1 chicharron (pork skin) gordita and 1 bean and steam gordita, 2 biscada tacos (mixed meat).
My steak and bean gordita was pretty tasty, warm and fresh. My husband enjoyed his food. The lady in the front is also very pleasant and friendly.
We're so happy to have found a spot nearby to buy authentic, and tasty Mexican food!
Nos mudamos a Ola hace un tiempo y hemos estado probando diferentes restaurantes para encontrar un favorito. Mi esposo es de México, y estaba emocionado de encontrar otro restaurante Mexicano para probar en el área. Hoy compró 2 tamales de puerco, 1 gordita de chicharrón y 1 gordita de frijol y vapor, 2 tacos de biscada (carne mixta). Mi gordita de bistec y frijoles estaba sabrosa, cálida y fresca. Mi esposo disfrutó su comida. ¡Estamos muy contentos de haber encontrado un lugar cercano para comprar comida mexicana auténtica y sabrosa!
Ahí les comparto la foto de el menú que mi esposo tomó hoy 9/26/2022.
Very clean restaurant with a great health score which is the first thing I check for when eating somewhere new! I ordered the chicken tacos and the flavor of the chicken was really good paired with the lime and mild green salsa made my tacos GREAT! My daughter got the chicken tamales and she really liked the flavor of the chicken but was not a fan of the texture or flavor of the masa. My husband has been coming here for a while and he really likes the asada burritos and tacos. Overall, great experience and we will be back!
I made my first visit to Taqueria El Crucero yesterday after doing a quick search for good Mexican restaurants near me. I'm really glad my intuition was right.
I was greeted upon entering the restaurant, which is a very simple gesture, but not everyone values it, so I'm glad this was part of my experience. I ordered several Tacos + Rice and Beans and una Torta con Chorizo.
Everything was delicious (plus my appetite was pleased), so I highly recommend this amazing restaurant & their really kind Team.
