What our guests are saying
Food and service were amazing and the dining room is beautiful! Anna was our server and she asked us several times if everything was okay and if we needed anything. I usually get fajita. The fajita was the best I ever had. The rice and beans were amazing, even the children liked it! Children had chicken tenders and they loved it. We all enjoyed the chips and the guacamole dip, it was some kinda good! We arrived and was able to sit down immediately.

Wow, what a gem in Sterling! The housemade tortillas are next level—soft, fresh, and perfectly textured for wrapping up those bold tacos. I went with the Tacos all Pastor and Birria options; the fusion flavors exploded with ginger and spice, no skimping on quality. Paired it with a couple of their craft cocktails (the mezcal marg was smoky perfection) and some Spanish tapas like empanadas that hit all the savory notes. Casual vibe, attentive service, and prices that won't break the bank. If you're craving elevated Mexican eats, this is your spot—I'll be back for happy hour tacos! Highly recommend. 👍

We had such a wonderful experience at La Prenza! The food was absolutely delicious!!! Everything we ordered was fresh and full of flavor, and it came out in just about 5 minutes! We came in about 40 minutes before closing, and we’re so grateful they welcomed us so kindly. The staff were incredibly friendly, polite, and warm, and the whole atmosphere was very pleasant! Everything was fast, tasty, and without any issues. A truly lovely place run by wonderful people, HIGHLY recommended!
