What our guests are saying
Great cozy place! Had the salad with BBQ chicken and some tacos. Great prices and tasty food! The salad was delicious and filling. The margs and cocktails were refreshing.

The food is so good, it's very cozy and feels like home when you walk in. Went with my ex-boyfriend's mom for the first time, and had tequila, very delicious. The second time went with my ex-best friend, she said the food was very good. They accept cash and card.

Super cute cantina with cheap drinks, friendly service, and good food. We got the queso fundido for the table which I would highly recommend. Super flavorful with lots of chorizo and served with quality tortilla chips. I had the Al Pastor and Carnitas tacos and both were very tender with a good marinade of spices.
Gabe H.
Had the tacos and they were AMAZING! Pork was so well seasoned and tender. I got takeout but also looked like a great place to sit as well.

I just had a really pleasant dining experience at La Lupe. The restaurant vibe and feel is great, cozy and dim with nice decorations and art. The margaritas are pretty good and come in different flavors like hibiscus and tamarind. To eat I ordered the chicken flauta which was quite good after I added some hot salsa. Good value for $8

Excellent, really solid tacos here (albeit a little pricey but) 10x better than the truck that's sitting outside on Myrtle. Good atmosphere inside, and a large selection of Hot Sauces. Good veggie tacos! Vegetarian options: They have good veggie tacos and other vegetarian sides and appetizers.
