Reviews Taqueria Las Isabelas

After hearing the wonderful reviews from friends and coworkers, my wife and I decided to give this place a try! From the moment we walked in we were greeted and made to feel like we were with friends! The hostess was incredibly helpful and kind! After giving our order, our food was delivered within minutes of sitting down! My only regret was not taking a picture of our meal before we ate! Everything was fantastic! The homemade tortilla chips with queso were top notch and the salsa was equally as amazing! However, what stole the show were the plates of authentic Mexican street tacos we both devoured! We tried several of the different meats, and while they were all great, our favorite was the Al Pastor! I think I speak for both of us when I say that we've found our new favorite Mexican restaurant in Hickory! 10/10, We will definitely be back again! (Next time, I'll try to snap a picture before the food is all gone) Edit* We went back the other day and got a picture! The food was just as amazing as we remembered it! :)

Amazing vegan options! The menu itself does not specify all vegan options, only a few, but we were told when ordering that any menu item could be made vegan. Be sure to ask if an item is fried (like the Chimichanga) if cross contamination if an issue. All around helpful, polite, and informed staff and servers, delicious authentic food, and awesome prices. Me and my wife visited from Charlotte due to being recommended by a friend, and the food was so good we haven't stopped talking about it since. Good, authentic Mexican food made vegan is very rare, and Isabelas hit the mark with their options! I got the Torta Vegana (plant based beef, vegan cheese, rice, beans, avocado, lettuce, tomato, and vegan mayo on a Bolillo roll) and was so full I had to bring the other half home. Ave that was after sharing a few bites with my wife! Their house made tortilla chips are delicious, but not fully vegan due to being fried in the same fryer as all of their meat items. Fortunately for us, this was not a deal breaker and we indulged ourselves! Our server, I believe her name was Vanessa, was super helpful and seemed genuinely eager and excited to tell us all they had to offer in the way of plant based options. The chefs even allowed us to try their now vegan chorizo and it was amazing! Definitely a hidden gem that we will be returning to as often as possible! Thank you all so much for the hospitality and truly amazing food!

Do you love authentic tacos? If so, this is your spot. Simple, delicious food. The location isn’t much to look at but most of the best places I’ve ever eaten were little hole in the wall type spots. This is no different. Good, hard working people cooking great food and bringing culture to a sleepy southern town. Give them your dollars. 👍🏻👍🏻

You need to give this place a try! Hidden gem of a restaurant located inside a Mexican Tienda. You enter through the store and the dining area is over to the right where you wait to be seated. The patio had a fantastic atmosphere with lots of plants and sunlight. Busy on a weekday evening. The service was friendly. Chips and salsa aren’t complementary but I’d definitely recommend ordering some - very fresh tasting. The margaritas looked delicious also with fresh garnishes. Our food was excellent. They have a great variety and it sounded like they had some veggie/vegan options also. The menu is in both English and Spanish.
