Mexican Menu in DeRidder

The Mexican menu DeRidder diners come for runs through two clear sections: A la Carta and From Del Mar Seafood. The line-up leans on combination plates, then moves into seafood and fried plates with a direct, filling style. Los Mayas Mexican Restuarant covers the basics for a visit; this page stays with the kitchen side.

Combination plates build around familiar pairings. One plate brings a taco, chile relleno, and beans. Another puts an enchilada beside a taco, rice, and beans. Other plates stack an enchilada with a burrito and chile relleno, or a chalupa with a chile relleno and another enchilada. There is also a two-enchilada plate with rice and beans, plus a beef burrito, enchilada, and tamale combination.

The seafood section shifts the focus. Fried oyster with fries sits beside fried shrimp with fries, fried fish, mojarra frita, and arroz con camarón. Fried seafood platter rounds out the section. Together, the two menu sections give a clear read on the kitchen: combo plates and seafood, with fried dishes carrying much of the range.
