What a hidden gem — this place is legit. I popped in for a quick bite just before lunch time and in the time I was there, every single customer that came in was a regular that the owner knew by name. The staff was speaking Spanish to each other which is always promising for a Mexican restaurant, they were all super friendly to me, and sure enough the pork chorizo burrito was mad tasty.It’s a bit pricy at $14 for just a burrito, but worth it for a good meal and to support a local business that staffs and serves good people. If I lived in the area I’d pop in weekly, cause I know I’d get treated good!

Fantastic tacos, especially the beef ones. Service was fast and friendly. Menu clearly labelled with what contained gluten.

I used to think La Taquisa was my favourite place for Mexican food in Victoria but I just can't anymore. I typically alternate between the five tacos or the burrito bowl with pork chorizo but the consistency and portions of the ingredients between locations varies so much now. Yesterday I ordered the burrito bowl to-go and later opened the box to see they swapped lettuce for purple cabbage with no notice. It was awful and not edible! Absolutely the wrong texture and there were huge pieces of the core in the mix. If I had known in advance, I would have gone with the tacos instead and not spent $17 on a useless lunch.

Their burritos are delicious...when you get a good one. I've had mostly good luck so my burritos were always pretty good. But unfortunately, sometimes you get a mushy flavourless burrito that just leaks liquid.I'd give it 3.5/5 but I can't select half a star, so I will give the 4/5 since the owner is cool and friendly.

Had a chorizo burrito and got Pico de gallo and ti my surprise the burrito tasted odd and not till I was picking stuff out and noticed there was cucumber in it!?!?! I was shocked as I have NEVER seen Pico de gallo with cucumber in it. It DID not belong and certainly did not taste good with the bean and chorizo.. what a disappointment! Please explain in what world does cucumber come in Pico de gallo?!?!?!?!?!?!

I usually get the 4-person family meal. But we hadn't ordered from La Taquisa in a while. Lo and behold, a container of crisp, fresh, finely shaved purple cabbage replaced the iceberg lettuce which used to come with this meal. Outstanding change! So crunchy. So good.

I used to love la taquisa but something has changed. I've lowered my expectations a lot since the pandemic, but my last visit here was atrocious. Food was cold and soggy, I was waiting in the restaurant so no reason to delay calling out an order. The apathetic person behind the counter offered no solution other than, we can put your order back under the heat lamp. Never returning

We had an event catered by La Taquisa and the whole experience was wonderful from start to finish. Food was delicious and Scott was so great to deal with. Really can’t recommend them enough.

I had a chicken burrito at $14 pre tip and tax. It's quite small(close to half of a Tacofina burrito for example) and it wasn't toasted or anything after it was rolled. Normally I wouldnt mind the lack of toasting as the Tortillas are nice and soft, but the contents were so cool I feel like a toasting may have helped. Essentially all the topping cooled it off for a Luke warm burrito eaten probably 5 mins after I left. By the time I was half way done, the wrapper it came in had a big puddle of juices from the slaw they added making the last half soggy and inedible. From top to bottom that burrito was a failure and in more than one way, which leads me to believe some of these issues are likely a constant. All in all I can't say I'd recommend this place over the multitude of other options in that space available in this city.

Had a great lunch at the Vic West location. I can always count on a delicious meal for a great price when I visit La Taquisa. Best bang-for-your-buck is the 5 taco deal. Fresh-made tortillas can’t be beat.
