Belinda's Aunthentic Mexican Food - La Palma CA




There are a very few places where you can actually get really good authentic Mexican food... and this is definitely one of them. Belinda's is tuck in a small strip mall plaza next to Del Taco. There is a Thai and Chinese Restaurant in the same business plaza. I would not reccomend taking your first date here. But a family now thats okay. When you go in you order first at the counter. You'll notice the homemade juices. We forgot what they served but looks fresh. Of course Mark has to order Horchata (Cinnamon Rice Drink). We got Chicken Enchilada with Mole Sauce & Chicken Chile Verde. After we pay for our order we look for a place to sit. They give you a basket of chips and hot salsa. They do have a jukebox so you can do the salsa as you eat your salsa!
Once we got our found it was on! It was fresh and as if it was made by your own abuela! Of course we switched it up and tried each others plate. Mark's Chicken Chile Verde was a little spicy and the Chicken Enchilada with the mole sauce was just right!
Not many places serve Mexican mole and we finally found one that is local! Definitely aunthentic and made our tastebuds tingle. The prices average from 5-10 per item depending if you are ordering single items vs. plates. Located on La Palma & Orangethorpe near the 91 freeway. Thumbs up for Belinda!!!
