La Hacienda Menu

Sorry, We are updating this restaurant menu details.

    The building is crumbling and the interior is dark, dated, and cramped, but the $5.75 lunch was quite good. My lunch companion had fun playfully jousting with the waitress. The red salsa was spicy--not too hot--but the green was decent as well. Food came promptly during the crowded lunch rush. The toilet is cramped with an old floor plan, but it is clean, which bodes well for the kitchen and staff.

    If you are looking for an authentic Mexican restaurant with Hispanic wait staff, Mariachi bands, and specialty dishes like carnitas and paella--don't come here. You will be sorely disappointed. There is nothing authentically Mexican about this place. If you have a cholesterol problem or don't like the sight of yellow tinged oil seeping out of the melted Colby cheese, then don't come here. On the other hand, if you figure God invented Lipitor for just such places, then come on down to Muncie's southside. I don't know that you are any less safe there than you are on the BSU campus with its C- safety rating. I don't remember a single sexual assault or shooting there, but I sure do for the BSU/Village area.

    We were visiting from North Carolina and gave this restaurant a try before reading any reviews. With such a negative experience I felt it only necessary to give you the heads up on this place. The atmosphere is dreary, prices are high, and most importantly the food is bland and distasteful. With a party of four, no one ate more than 3 bites of their meal. We politely paid our bill without complaining and left. Three out of the four in our party had upset stomachs shortly after lunch. Please consider another restaurant before choosing La Hacienda in Muncie, IN. I hope you find this review helpful.

    Don't do it. Your body will hate you. And it's extremely overpriced. You'll pay twenty bucks for something that tastes like you could've microwaved it at home. Never again will I go there!

    Taco Bell has a better version of Mexican food than this place. Very bland every thing covered in cheddar cheese with some beef tomatoes and lettuce thrown in. Very greasy, my stomach now hates me. Had low expectations and those became reality. Wish I had a corona to go with it because maybe it would have been a little better cause of the alcohol.

    Some people really, really like this restaurant. Hey, after all ... they're still here! I personally do not care for it. For one thing - and someone else mentioned this too - I don't feel confident in assuming this location is safe. That's not the restaurant's fault; as I said, they've been here a long time and surely things have changed in the area. But to me, it is a reason not to go. Secondly, when I have gone (in someone else's car!), I have been less than impressed with the quality of the food. One word comes to mind: greasy. I mean, fast food is greasy, but I'm talking about pools of grease on and around your enchiladas. You know how you sometimes have to "blot" a piece of pizza? This is like that, but with a sponge. Third, I know everyone likes to bicker about what's "authentic" and what's not, especially as there seem to be three well-known Mexican restaurants in Muncie all claiming to offer authentic food. But it really doesn't seem to me that this restaurant uses a cheese common in Mexican cooking. Somehow, it doesn't melt right and it takes on a Nickelodeon-like orange hue, oozing grease in some parts and being burnt in others. I'm not sure which Mexican region's cooking style that is common to, but I believe it is a recognizable feature of the Microwave Cooking school of thought. Thanks - I can microwave stuff poorly on my own! Two stars despite this because hey, they've kept it going for many years and obviously some people really enjoy it. Even some people in my family like it. But I personally have never gone here on my own and certainly never will.

    FIVE STARS! All you haters, go away. This place is money. Not authentic, totally gross inside, and absolutely horrible for you. So many great memories of living in Muncie and coming here. Always get a kiddie cocktail. They give you a sword with cherries on it and you can play sword fighting while you wait for your food. Two bean burritos with cheese on top. BAM. Money in the mother truckin bank. I drive 90 miles to taste the grease. DELICIOUS FIVE STARS

    I was trying to find an alternative to Puerto Vallarta-- boy, what a GIANT MISTAKE! I can usually find something nice to say about a place, but the only nice thing I have to say is to the fellow Yelpers!- AVOID LA HACIENDA! The food was horrible- not even close to 'authentic' Mexican food. The beans are straight out of a can, the rice is mushy and similar to microwave rice found in an Enchilada TV dinner. They do not use the correct kind of cheese- they use Cheddar, which causes an oily build-up on the food when heated. The restaurant itself is scary- no really, I did not feel safe there and I did not feel safe parking my car in their tiny lot. The clientele were mostly bikers. The only way this place can stay in business is because they serve alcohol and maybe, just maybe people are too drunk to know what they are eating. I 100% am not being too harsh or hypercritical. If you have some morbid curiosity, then go and waste $30 (yes 2 dinners came to a whopping $30!!)- but if you disagree with what I am writing then please write another review. Bottom Line: Overpriced Garbage! Honestly, Taco Bell would have tasted better than what we got at La Hacienda.

Mexican Cuisine

If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.

Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.

Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.
