Guidebook for Walla Walla
Food Scene
This is Walla Walla's Mexican food "Yin" to Taqueria Yungapeti's "Yang", in our book. As much as TY is an excellent Taco-Truck style restaurant choice, you can't go wrong with La Ramada as the place for your family dining Mexican restaurant experience! (The family-like setting doesn't mean they can't make a mean margarita, though!) They have daily lunch and dinner specials, friendly service, and bang-for-your-buck portions (warning: the Quesadilla is a MEAL, not an appetizer!). Worth the very short drive East from downtown.

By far the best "taco-truck-style" Mexican food you will find north of the border. Could NOT be more authentic. We've tried Mexican cuisine from San Diego to Seattle, spanning the spectrum between hot plate family dining to the smallest of taco trucks, and have yet to find something we enjoy more than "TY". Eat there. Often. They even have a drive-thru, all-day breakfast burritos, and a salsa bar! Nothing fancy about this place. Better for a quick authentic bite than a highbrow dining experience. Highly recommended! Note: the same family owns and operates "Mi Pueblito", if you find yourself on the other end of town, located at 1633 E Isaacs Ave, Walla Walla WA 99362.

Honestly, we can't recall a day in our lives when this place wasn't around!

Amazing to see a record store these days, period!... let alone one that has been around this long. Warning: this place is PACKED to the gills with music media, and smells like incense 24/7 ;-)
