“ I just love Ninas! What an asset to downtown LaSalle and our Latin community. I am posting pictures of the store, our lunchhuge portions, and a menu for the restaurant which is now in a bigger building attached to the original. Very nice and spacious. ”
“ Great food. Fantastic selection of proteins. If you like authentic Mexican cuisine, then this is one of the best places around. ”
“ Went here for the first time yesterday with my girlfriend and was definitely a good experience. I got three tacos that were a variety of chicken pork and steak. The quality was so unbelievable I never had tacos anywhere else like it. The waitress had very good service and she said something about trying The Cartinas taco next time but I got one to go. My girlfriend enjoyed the chimichanga that she had which was chicken. Not only that but I did order extra rice with mine and I got probably twice or three times the amount of rice that I ordered somewhere else and ask for extra. Overall best experience I had at a Mexican restaurant and probably will not go back to any other one except Ninas. ”
“ Here is a protip the taqueria inside of a Mexican grocery store is nearly always going to be fire. Ninas is no different. Beautiful, clean, friendly spot with fantastic food in quaint downtown LaSalle. Homemade tamales on weekends! ”
