Our Story

In 1990 my mom Maria saw the need for a Mexican restaurant in Indiantown. It was the first Mexican restaurant in town! Our family is originally from Guerrero, Mexico. She named the restaurant Cafeteria Los Amigos, however in time they referred to her as La Mexicana        (the Mexican woman).

Since then we have been providing authentic Mexican meals every day, our dad and siblings all worked together at the restaurant. We would all stock, serve, clean, run the register etc, it was a family affair! Until this day, we proudly continue to be family owned.

In 2008 Mom wanted one of her children to take over so my husband and I were pleased to. We changed the name to La Mexicana Restaurante, as it was more popularly known. Recipes and the same outstanding homemade meals continued and so did our staple, fluffy and hot fresh made tortillas from our very own “comal”…

We make traditional Mexican meals like Mole, chile verde pork ribs, caldo de pollo (chicken soup) & much more! Our main goal is to keep providing fresh food that makes you feel like you’re eating one of grandma’s delicious meals!

Por favor, Sientanse.
Bienvenidos! Please feel Welcome!
