La Chinita Poblana 906 Carrollton Avenue, Indianapolis, IN 46202

"The tacos de lenguas were not very good. The meat is very dry, no flavors and very greasy. The tortilla are stiff and taste old. No salsa or any condiments that would be complimentary for a taco."

"Carnitas were bland and dry. The tortillas were handmade but were hard and cold. Cocktails were premixed and tasted like fruit juice, so better off just walking down the hall and going to Hard Truth distilling for cocktails since they are the same price with much better flavor. The presentation was good, and the Korean BBQ tacos had above average flavor, but there are much better Mexican restaurants in the area for the same prices."

"Finding good tacos in Indy has been a challenge so I really really wanted to love this place. I ordered the Korean BBQ, braised pork carnitas, and the shrimp tacos, and paired it with the 5 spice pork quesadillas. The quesadilla was pretty good but the tacos were another story. The tacos make for nice pictures but they failed to live up to the hype. Bonus points for creative ingredients and looking pretty I guess, but the meats are definitely underwhelming. The meat is the essence of a taco. It doesn't matter if you're going for the traditional flavors or the fusion route like this place, it's the most important component. Without it, it's just a tortilla. I felt like my inner child unwrapped a Christmas present to discover a pair of knit socks. That's what eating these tacos felt like. No amount of fancy wrapping paper can change the pending disappointment. The cool hip ingredients don't help if the taco meat tastes like it was microwaved from a can. Another analogy is like putting ketchup on dough and pouring nacho sauce to make "cheese pizza". It just doesn't work The tacos don't taste horrible but management takes themselves seriously enough to charge $4 per taco. They deserve a reality check, and people should be warned to temper their expectations."

"Unique taco flavors served in a street food manner. Pictured from left to right are the Red Braised Pork Carnitas, Korean BBQ Steak, and Salt n Pepper Crispy Shrimp. Great flavors and a good selection of meats and veggie options."
