Reviews for LA HACIENDA EL SOL MEXICAN RESTAURANT in West Lafayette, IN

For the price it's been hit or miss, depending on who's working. I order doordash delivery and some days the a la carte options... are stuffed, other times like tonight the portions are tiny. I ordered an a la carte burrito with nacho sauce, (8.25$) with anextra portion of ground beef (3.25$) and specified in the instructions that there should be extra beef and extra cheese. For atotal of 11.50$ for one burrito, this is what I received. Thats almost entree pricing. Very disappointed tonight. The sour creamcup I paid for also was forgotten. Hit or miss, I've had good orders and some bad orders. Don't expect special instructions oreven paid extras to be adhered to. HOWEVER THE DELIVERY HOURS ARE FANTASTIC and is the only late night mexican delivery in thearea. Read more

The salsa was just tomato sauce, their was no onion or cilantro. It was horrible. The queso was actually awesome. Our food came... out so fast, im pretty sure it was microwaved. It was just ok. The kids hot dog had a lot of flavor. I wouldn't choose to goback personally. Our waiter was on the phone with what seemed like a personal call and took forever to take our order, he wasalso singing super loud. That wasn't pleasant. Wasn't a great experience but want horrible either. Read more

Went there to give it a try and I will be back. I got a order of Texas Nachos to go and they were ready in just a few minutes. ... For me this was lunch and the amount was enough for two lunches. If you were ordering this inside as an appetizer it couldprobably keep 6 people happy. Might try and go.back next week. Read more

It took a while for a waiter to take our order, but once he took it the food was at our table at lightning speed (about 5... minutes). Food was ok. The margarita was the worst I’ve ever had. It tasted like a mix of crystal light and kool-aid. Read more

Food seemed to be pre-made and microwaved when ordered. Food came out within five minutes and it was too hot from within. In... addition the plate was also extremely hot that we almost burnt our fingers. The quality was also disappointing. The tortillassmelled unpleasant and looked as if they were around for a long time. Chicken was extremely dry and looked old. The only thingthat made the food seemed "good" was the cheese on top. The staff also did not have good service and were staring at us duringdining. During checkout, they would literally fix their eyes in the tip screen that only has an amount of 20% or above, whichthey don't deserve at all. I'm really surprised by the good reviews here.

Pretty good Mexican, probably the best sit down near Purdue. The staff are very nice and the plates are traditional, drinks... are large, they have a classic Mexican bar. Read more

I ordered the combination fajitas. Pretty cheap price and you get big portions. The chicken and the shrimp were excellent, the... steak was pretty bland and somewhat tough. However, there was enough chicken and shrimp to just eat that and have a good-sizedportion without even bothering with the steak. I also ordered a pork Taco which was small but quite delicious. The one thing Iwould not recommend is there a shredded chicken burrito. It is $8 and I ordered it expecting a burrito sized meal. However, whatI got was about the size of an enchilada if that. Very little meat for the price. Their menu is quite varied with lots ofselections, including things I would say are not typical of your average Mexican restaurant. The number of choices will keep mecoming back just to see what else I can get. Read more
