This is another place that I stumbled upon by accident. I was looking for a place that accepted online orders and payment for home delivery orders, when I came across HOLA Mexicana. I enjoyed their food so much, that I ended up ordering at least once every week for some time. Soon it dawned upon me that while I have had their yummy food many times, I haven’t actually been there even once. I made up my mind to go there over the weekend.

HOLA Mexicana is quaint little place nestled in a building complex Fatehganj, Baroda. Their banner is well lit, so that you don’t miss it. The only catch is that you can easily park a two wheeler, but a car will need some efforts.

They have a warm looking interior, which can easily manage 20 or so patrons. One of the plus points is that they have A/C and wifi, so it makes spending the hot noons or evenings easy.

One of my regular orders over here is their mexican rice. While they offer both veg and non veg options, I like to go with the chicken version. It is a fabulous combination of rice, sauces, spices, tanginess, vegetables, beans, shredded chicken (since I go for the non veg version) and cheese. I have had it almost everytime I have ordered from them, and I still enjoy it each and every time.

This is what the bowl of mexican rice looks like when you receive it.

I like to give it a nice mix, before diving in.

Not one to get satisfied with just one bowl of rice, I order something else to go with it. This time I ended up with one of their omelettes.

What is even better about the place is that in spite of serving such delicious food, and giving you a warm and comfortable ambience, they are easy on the wallet. Here’s a snapshot of their menu

This is hands down, one of my favorite places in Baroda to have mexican food. I will leave you with a picture of the HOLA Mexicana team who were happy to pose for a pic for me.

  1. The ambience of the place looks very welcoming, and so does that omelette. 🙂 Another restaurant to try if I visit Baroda.

  2. After reading your post early in the morning, I’m ravenous!

    With good food, inviting ambience, AC, WiFi and, last but not least, easy on the wallet, what else can one ask for? 🙂

  3. Though I already hate you to put up food related posts day after day but I was equally eager to see the pics in this one, for some reason images from this post are not visible to me. Will try again !

  4. Mexican food has become really popular na over the yrs…
    Sounds like a fab place. Some of the best Mexican food I’ve had has been in small quaint looking cafes and roadside stalls or trucks! 🙂

  5. Awesome and tempting again. didnt u have burito
    I remembered my visit to a place in Bangalore – California burito. It had bowl of rice just like urs and was good !
    It is a diet dish 😉

  6. That rice looks scrumptious and the omelet is drool- worthy. Damn, I should have read this now… tsk!

  7. Loving your food posts more and more now 😀
    And love that circular wall-hanging at that place – very beautiful !
    Now, I’ll write down all these places so that I am well informed of where to eat, when I come visiting 🙂
    That mexican rice with shredded chicked – drooling now….is there anything like that in Chennai is what I am thinking !

  8. Thanks for the follow.
    I must confess that I was surprised to find Mexican food on offer in India, but it looks as good as any I have eaten elsewhere.

    1. There has been a huge influx of Mexican and Italian over the last three years. Most of them are ‘indianised’ to cater to the common population, but some of them (like this one ) are real good

Thank you for coming by, please drop a comment :)
