Taqueria Corona Review

Mexican food has had a low profile in New Orleans, but that appears to be changing with the influx of immigrant workers in town working construction and other jobs. Taco trucks are popping up and more places are likely to follow. In the meantime Taqueria Corona still rules as the best local Mexican joint. Here you'll find football-size burritos tasting just the right way (and that means not the generic fast-food way, thanks), grilled tacos, combo platters, even gazpacho -- and all of it for minimal prices. Be sure to order a side of cebollitas, grilled and seasoned green onions.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
