Reviews for La Nopalera Mexican Restaurant in Jacksonville, FL

I?ve never had a bad experience here, day or night. The food is piping hot & fresh. The servers are friendly and attentive. And... the margaritas are margaritaing?? I love the decor and the back patio deck area. This is a best kept secret of the Northside.Even busy times are still great! Definitely a fan! Read more

Great lunch, we shared a Special Burrito, which was more that enough after the chips, salsa and cheese dip. Jorge was a great... server, he was very attentive and made sure we had a great lunch. The restrooms were clean. We will definitely be back. Read more

Really good mexican food! Shrimp tacos were so fresh tasting and the fajitas had so much food included. The margarita was huge!... Nicely decorated inside with a good vibe. Read more

La Nop don't EVER miss. This restaurant is literally my go to spot for lunch and dinner. The staff is always friendly and all... are familiar faces. Idk why I see reviews less than 5 stars. I've had their fajitas, basically all entrees and the classicMolcajete plenty of times so I this time I got 2 tacos for a quick lunch. Definitely getting the marinated pull pork taco again. The steak was good too but the pork already set the standard for me ???? oh definitely try the frozen margaritas, honestly tome nothing beats it. Read more

Had a great dinner. The food was delicious. It took a bit for it to come out though. They were really busy on a Tuesday!

Worse than Taco Bell. Great atmosphere, but the kitchen sends out awful food. Asked for no onions on a burrito. It took two... tries till finally no onions but the kitchen just scraped them out so by the third plate--because the second one had onionstoo-- there was nothing left but steak and a tortilla. My dinner guest got a combo plate that looked like Taco Bell. Greatatmosphere and exceptional cocktails; albeit the argumentative food runners make things awkward. Read more

Just moved here from San Diego and was worried we wouldn?t find good Mexican food. This place was exceptional. Where do I... start, Jose, our server provided outstanding customer service, and the food was delicious. My husband had the street tacos andI had the Chimichanga Chicken Parmegiano. The tortillas are made right inside the restaurant. The ambience of the place isgreat added their outside patio on the water. We will be back! Read more

They told me it would be a 30-40 minute wait for a table and it was almost exactly 30 minutes. I LOVE Mexican food and I?ve... never had Mexican food like this before. Excellent. Very creative. I was starving and ordered 3 specialty tacos which come withrice and refried beans. Perfect. I got Campechano (chick/chorizo) Pescado (fried tilapia), and Nopitos (cactus). $4.25 each Idon?t drink but the young lady who recommended the place said their Margaritas were fantastic. Also, the gentleman who waited onme spoke Spanish, wore a mask, and was pitch perfect. Read more
