First time in this cozy little place. Booth seating to one side and a bar on the other. It's got a cool eclectic vibe, very clean. We were promptly sat and a server was there with menus and water and took our drink order. The menu is small but covers all the bases nicely. The chips arrived hot and the salsa made in house while we waited for our food which wasn't long. Nothing pretentious going on here just solid well prepared and fresh. Portions were generous and the prices fair. We've found another little gem! I would have given 4.5 stars simply for the fact that the dusty musty 70s one hit wonder ambient music included the theme from Greatest American Hero. A lot of you will be too young to remember lol.

We visited Lacina last week for the very first time. We were very impressed with the service and how tasty the food was. It's a very small place but you'll feel cozy there. It was slightly more pricey than I expected but definitely worth it. We will definitely be back.please try the chicken burrito there. It is amazing.

I'm sorry, but this has to be some of the worst food I've had in quite some time. These were truly not authentic tacos that I ate. Salsa appeared to be watered down tomato puree which was also as bland as my overpriced tacos (which were almost $5.00 per taco). So very disappointed.

Great food and margaritas. Outside of mexicantown in Detroit this is one of my favorite places to eat.

A tiny restaurant which delivers very good food and good service. The bartender makes a great margarita from scratch--no mixes. I had the tostada's which were very flavorful. The dish came with beans and rice. All were very good. My only complaint is they served the dish on a soup bowl-type plate and they were hard to eat and cut on that plate. They should have been served on a flat plate. (I know this sounds trivial, but it's important to me). My husband had fish taco's which. Bonus too. You can play the Michigan lottery games in there too. We also liked the quiet atmosphere

I felt like a visitor coming in a hometown restaurant where everyone knew each other. Got welcomed in with a smile. Atmosphere was welcoming, friendly conversation, nice music , hot food, great portions ,and the waiter was the happiest person I’ve ever seen. Haven’t tried the drinks yet! Next time I will.
