You don’t always have to wait for taco Tuesday to chow down on mouthwatering tacos at a Mexican restaurant in New Orleans. While there are plenty of places you can go, Panchita’s Mexican Criolla Cuisine on Carrollton Ave. is a tiny spot that serves delicious south-of-the-border food made with fresh ingredients.

Some of our favorite local restaurants are the small, hole-in-the-wall type of places. Panchita's Mexican Criolla Cuisine definitely falls into that category.

This quaint Mexican eatery is quite charming inside with its painted walls and Mexican decor. While eating inside is always an option, customers like to dine out on the sidewalk on warm, sunny days.
