It's Taco Tuesday & I felt like treating myself to a super burrito from La Bamba's..
aka "Burritos As Big As Your Head." They've been around at least 30 years because I remember them since my days at Broad Ripple High School.
& 30 years later..
They're still just as good..
maybe not quite as big as my head, but definitely as big as my forearm & heavy as a newborn baby! ( just joking..🤣 or am I?🤔)

I wanted a smaller meal to try, and not something as big as my head; so I ordered a pork tamale, with an order of rice (total cost, $7.07; back to that in a moment.) Both orders were ready about as fast as I was ready to pay (ie, they must already have quantities of both ready before you order.) Both the pork tamale and rice were good, neither fantastic.
The rice especially seemed plentiful.
The little cups of green and red sauces were both good, in different ways.
For $7.07, I thought this an excellent meal deal. I think the drive-thru sign is outdated in some prices, while the indoor sign matched what I was charged.
NBD, to me on this anyway. The interior was sufficiently clean, which I was uncertain whether to expect, based on the aged and weathered look of the drive-thru sign.
I'm pretty confident the two guys I saw running the place were Mexican-Americans fluent in Spanish, besides having the "perfect" English used with me. P.S.
the recent female reviewer was correct about them having nice paper napkins.
But I was even more impressed by their thick, durable, black plastic silverware.

Very friendly staff and phenomenal food! I ordered a chorizo quesadilla and it did not disappoint! Will come back again!
