    I was a little apprehensive about eating here after reading all the reviews. However, our group received nothing but amazing service. The restaurant was clean and the food was delicious. The service was great and the prices were reasonable. I highly recommend it to anyone!

    Compared to other Mexican restaurants in the area, this is my least favorite. The menudo is very good and served every day, it's their only redeemable quality though. For 2 burritos was $8, I wouldn't recommend this place but instead go to La Taquiza, Crystal's, literally anywhere else but here.

    I came from New Mexico to visit my mother.  So I wanted to have some good Mexican food. I remembered La Dona,, which was one of my dad's all time favorite restaurant when he was alive.  Well It wasn't what it used to be. The enchilada sauce  was no enchilada sauce. It lacked flavor and tasted as if it was mixed with possibly tomato sauce. The tacos and gorditas fell apart at one bite. The caldo had no flavor. I guess living in New Mexico has spoiled me with fresh red or green chile.  

    They must have changed owners or cooks.  Wouldn't go again. I do give credit to the waitress she was friendly and attentive.

    On a recent trip to ELP to visit my Mom, this was one of the last places we tried, and one of the better places IMHO.   La Dona has a very big menu selection.  I came here for the chicken tortilla soup.  I wasnt let down.   The wait staff was fast and friendly.   There is a cute cafe vibe.  Also there is a group of regulars that gives the place an added warm feeling to it.    Though we came for breakfast, we all ordered lunch stuff.   I opted for the chile rellenos.  Yum!   Kids both got chicken flauta plates.   My Mom said she wasnt too hungry but managed to clean her plate just fine :-)
    Next trip to ELP, I am coming back !!
