La Unica Brings Mexican Flavor to Lufkin and East Texas
East Texas’ Authentic Mexican Restaurants? La Unica
It all started with a single location in Lufkin.
La Unica owners Antonio and Flor Maldonado felt that they could bring the flavors of Mexico to immigrants who moved to East Texas to work in the timber industry, chicken processing plants, and for companies like Lufkin Industries.
They were right. Mexican Americans fell in love with the authentic Mexican cuisine they found at La Unica’s original location at 1614 North Raguet in Lufkin.
Popular Spanish DJ and Program Director Oscar Chavez was an early fan as were Roy and Ino Reyes, owners of La Unica Spanish Newspaper.
Soon, La Unica began attracting crowds and adding locations.
