La Cueva Mexican Grub

La Cueva Mexican Grub is a Mexican restaurant in Mountain View, California.

La Cueva Mexican Grub puts crisp textures and Michoacán-style dishes at the center of its menu on Escuela Avenue in Mountain View. Enchiladas Michoacanas combine cheese-and-onion-filled tortillas with salsa, lettuce or cabbage, crema, pickled carrots, and fried potatoes. We like that distinctive combination because it offers a different starting point from the usual burrito order. Tacos dorados and fried quesadillas continue the crunchy theme, with vegetables, salsa, and cheese providing contrasting toppings. A flauta with mole offers fillings such as potato, shredded chicken, or shredded beef under the sauce. Street tacos and tortas give diners familiar handheld alternatives. Dulce de leche atole, made with milk and cinnamon, adds a warm, sweet drink. La Cueva's appeal is a compact Mexican menu with a recognizable regional emphasis and several ways to explore it.
