We discovered the place today. The food was awesome, and the service was great. The chips and salsa were absolutely delicious. I had the 3 taco plate. Steak, pork, and fish with rice and beans. She had the Polo loco. Both dishes were absolutely delicious. The service was very good. Our waiter brought us samples of their in-house teas. Very good. We will definitely be back!!

The tacos were really good. I got the birria, barbacoa, and fish tacos and the chips and salsa. The salsas that they serve have good flavor however they are sneaky hot so beware. Have something ready to eat to compensate when the heat finally gets to you. The place was very clean and the health inspection was a 99. It's always good to see that. This was my first time here but I will be back to try other things.

Our favorite Mexican "mom and pops" spot. A real almost hidden gem! Consistently delicious food, super friendly and helpful staff with great service and good music (though I would prefer Spanish music). The ambiance isn't the most suiting for our family, so we take our food home to enjoy, but even with a 15 minute drive, everything still is DELICIOUS!!!

Little hidden gem on highway 31. Fresh tacos, comes with onions, cilantro, limes, and radish with both red and green salsa. Carne asada torta has super fresh bread and ingredients. 5/5 on food and 5/5 on friendly service. Will definitely be back!

Taqueria La Parroquia is a small taqueria that despite its humble ambiance, offers some solid tacos and from the looks of the food being brought to the other table, other Mexican favorites. The service here was good in a laid-back, friendly kind of way. I ended up ordering four tacos, two quesabirria, one chorizo and one asada. My food came out pretty fast and I have to say that it was definitely some incredible tacos. The quesabirria were my favorite, though all were excellent. The dipping broth for the quesabirria was spot on and the homemade sauces (which came in both red and green) were definitely great. The spicy red sauces I would even go as far as to describe as freaking awesome. I have to say that I was impressed with here and if you find yourself in Prattville, Alabama, I would definitely recommend heading here.
