This review will be short and sweet - I only get one thing when I go to La Frontera, and that one thing is the Smothered Burrito with Cheese. It's only like $4.50, it's hecka good, it's fast, and with a basket of chips it'll fill you up to overflowing.\r
\r
The chips are good, and have some weird red seasoning salt on them (shows they're at least making an effort). The salsa is definitely terrible, but if you keep going back for the smothered burrito, you'll find that you can tolerate it (and you'll even begin to enjoy it after a while). It's kind of like Little Caesar's Crazy Sauce with a bunch of crushed red pepper (not awesome, but it's not really trying to be awesome).\r
\r
Their guacamole is very good, topped with tomatoes and olives.\r
\r
The rest of the food is so-so. Cheese enchiladas are... well... cheese enchiladas. Taquitos have dry blah boiled-flavored chicken. Tacos are nothing special.\r
\r
Just go for the Smothered Burrito with Cheese. Please note: the Chile Verde should actually be Chile Anaranjado or something, because it's actually more orange looking than green, but it's still the best chile verde in the valley. \r
\r
Finally: the rice and beans are a perfect compliment to the smothered burrito, espeically when the chile verde mixes with the rice/beans. GREAT with a basket of chips.
Pros: Smothered Burrito with Cheese
Cons: Everything Else
