Loved the outside dining area. Food was wonderful. Burrito was 10. Ordered a side rice because I thought I wasn’t gonna be full, BOY WAS I WRONG! That chorizo burrito filled me up like a tick and I had to “force myself” to eat the rice. And the rice was oh so good. Also there’s 2 types of salsa: regular mild salsa, and Mexican Spicy Salsa. Very authentic to Mexico!!! Wait staff very tentative to your needs and also very attractive. Will dine in again!

It was great experience today. Wonderful Mexican food and the service was great. The sitting room outside was perfect for an amazing kind of day. It was authentic and tasted as such. Thank you for the amazing experience.

This is our favorite spot to eat in town! Their Quesabirria & Carnitas are to die for! I’ve never been dissatisfied or disappointed by the food. The Horchata & Tres Leches is also amazing! If I had to choose one place to eat for the rest of my life, it would hands down be here.

This was my second time visiting La Enchilada and I have been impressed both times! The food is absolutely delicious, flavorful, and satisfying. We got the chicken quesadilla, taco platter (choice of any 3 tacos, and comes with rice & beans), and the guacamole. Meals also come with chips and salsa. We received our food promptly, and the staff are kind and accommodating. The decor and music make the experience even more enjoyable! I highly recommend visiting.

The best Mexican restaurant. Tastes just like home 3 Server was so nice and helpful, music was bumpin with cumbias at max volume so awesome. Food was the best !! So happy will come back every single time we go to Bismarck. The beans taste just like in any abuelitas home

La Enchilada has been one of my go to spots for authentic Mexican food, they have great food and their horchata is really good! Their regular tacos are amazing, but wish their Birria tacos had more meat on them! Overall it is a good place to eat and the atmosphere is good as well, it's not overpriced either. Their employees are very nice and the establishment is very clean! If you're visiting Bismarck and you want drinks and food, La Enchilada is the place to go.

I highly recommend this excellent Mexican restaurant. The tamales birria were superb, as were the slow cooked beef tacos and the chicken burrito. The refried beans were out of this world! The colorful and decorative atmosphere make it an enjoyable place to dine, and the slightly slow service is most likely a reflection of the fact that delicious food takes time to make. You should definitely check out this place for an excellent Mexican meal in Bismarck.

Amazing food as usual. My husband and I usually get the same thing every time. Chori Pollo and Quesa Birria platter. Usually, we get Pozole, but not this visit. You won't ever be disappointed coming here to eat or getting it to go.
