Our Story
Bangkok’s Favorite Mexican Restaurant Since 2009
La Monita Taqueria is a Mexican restaurant in Bangkok born from a deep passion for the bold, vibrant, and fun flavors of California-style Mexican cuisine. Since 2009, we’ve called Mahatun Plaza in Phloen Chit home, just a short walk from BTS Phloen Chit.
Our food is inspired by the flavors we love from both California and Mexico, from legendary Mission-style burritos and generously stuffed quesadillas to tacos packed with everything from slow-cooked meats to fresh vegetarian fillings, cheesy enchiladas, sizzling fajitas, and more. Over the years, La Monita has become known for favorites such as Quesabirria tacos, Tacos Gaonera with sliced ribeye, and the kind of generous, flavor-packed dishes that keep people coming back.
At the heart of everything we do are handmade tortillas, quality local and imported ingredients, and house-made salsas prepared with care. Our complimentary self-serve salsa bar has become a highlight of the La Monita experience, with 10 different house-made salsas ranging from fresh and mild to seriously spicy.
But La Monita has always been about more than just the food. It’s a place for a quick burrito at lunch, tacos and margaritas with friends, or a long, relaxed weekend meal with the family. After 17 years in Bangkok, we still believe Mexican food should be bold, colorful, generous, and most importantly, fun.
That spirit has been part of La Monita since day one - and it’s what we continue to bring to every table.
