La Estrella San Jose Reviews
Food was so delicious, we tried all the different meat options for the tacos and they were all fire so you can't go wrong with anything you pick. We also had the empanadas, they were crunchy and hella stuffed. We got a complementary strawberry smoothie and empanada with our order so shoutout to Eric for taking care of us. 10/10 place, it's our new go-to spot
The food here was delicious, and the customer service was outstanding. I initially ordered arroz con pollo, but unfortunately, they didn’t have it. However, they offered their own version, which turned out to be surprisingly good. My brother ordered a super burrito, and the portion size was generous. They even provided complimentary chips and salsa as an appetizer. The staff were engaging and friendly, making the dining experience even better. Highly recommend this place for great food and excellent service!
Absolutely amazing tacos; not only was the meat free of any unwanted chewy parts, but the taste was out of this world! Bite after bite I ate until there was nothing left except one piece of cilantro - then I ate that too!
Eric was very helpful and gave us good recommendations. We had the tacos(asada, pollo, chile verde, and pastor) and the empanadas. All of them were hella good. The tacos were good portions and had lots of meat. The meat was well seared and seasoned. The empanadas were crunchy on the outside and the meat was tender in the middle. The smoothies are also made to order with fresh ingredients I recommend the strawberry one. Thanks again to Eric for all his help.

Very good quesebirria tacos and arroc con polo was fireee and a good portion also got the arros con leche smackin definitely a 5 stars
The corn tortillas taste homemade. Very excellent food. The carne asada is better than you think. Ordered 5 tacos but only got 4, they brought me two more for the mistake. Excellent service
Echoing what everyone else has said. Delicious food (we had empanadas and super burritos, both of which were absolutely excellent), very friendly employees, super clean inside. We’ll be back!!
Coming to a business trip and stopped by at la Estrella restaurant. Highly recommend 👌 food and customers service is grate . Looking forward to stopping by again soon !!!!
Very good experience, we ordered super burritos and quesabirrias, lady gave us good options. Nice music, clean interior, food was prepared fast and tasted amazing! Recommend this place
Great tacos using perfect tortillas. Clean place and nice staff for a quick stop. Can’t wait to try their empanadas and other specialties next time.
Everything tasted very fresh. The Carne Asada was lean and cooked well. Breakfast was very good. They're still working out some kinks and more TVs and drink options are on the way. Def will try again
Came here and asked for Coctel de Camaron. The menu doesn’t have it but the chef said he can make it for me. Excellent! it’s very tasty. My wife gave it a thumb up. You should add this to the menu. 5 stars, no doubt.
Visited this restaurant when visiting home. Food was fabulous but most importantly the service and the warmth with which they served us. They were accommodating and so kind. We will definitely be back!
We had car trouble and the person at La Estrella was very kind and helpful while we waited.
We tried the empanadas de pollo and lechón. They were crispy, well seasoned and filled with plenty of meat, fried to order. We will be back to try their other items!
service was fast and friendly, and the food was made very well. accommodating staff and high quality food

Very friendly family owned business and staff. Got a free courtesy buffalo wing. Ordered 2 pastor, 2 asada tacos and the apple pie with ice cream. Tacos are decent but once you put the green sauce on it.. chefs kiss! I don't live in the area but when I get more car stuff done I'll probably stop by again.

I came in to try the menudo and was greeted by a friendly courteous lady. I waited for the menudo to get warmed up from what I seen. The menudo came out and smelled amazing. The flavor was definitely on point. With that being said, it didn’t have a lot of tripe or pata. Just one small tendon and very little tripas. No hominy. It was all soup, which I drank because it was really good. I was thinking about how much it was going to cost being the size of the bowl was small, and very little meat in it. Was in a little shock when the bill was $19 and some change. Sheesh. That should be sold as a cup of menudo. I left still hungry. Any other restaurants, the $20 bowl of menudo is bigger and more filling. Just saying.
