While the guarnaches were very good, some of the other dishes my party ordered were just OK. I think it is worth recognizing that tortilla chips appeared made-to-order and served just out of the frier -- nice! Portion sizes were definitely on the skimpy side across everything we ordered, especially given the prices. Our server warned us the $1 Taco Tuesday tacos were small, but the amount of protein was tiny, even for a buck. If the prices had been a bit more reasonable given the portion sizes, this would be a very strong 3-star review.

I chose this establishment because it was open late and scored well here on Yelp. I found it to be…read morea very middling, highly americanized, mexican restaurant. The locals probably love it for the large portions, but I would guess that the majority of their product is sourced from Gordon's Food Service. The refried beans and rice were especially mediocre and I didn't eat more that a cursory taste of those items. I had the chori-pollo dinner. Again, nothing special here. Little to no seasoning on most items. There was not even any hot sauce at the tables, so that's all you really need to know. Salsa was bland and even the chips were sourced - probably On The Border Cantina-Style brand chips. Food prep and presentation was ok. The restaurant overall, was shabby. I do not recommend, although there doesn't seem to be much else around here. I boxed up about 3/4 of the meal and deposited it in the dumpster back at the hotel.

We visited from Raleigh,…read more These tacos are not bad for North Carolina. The tortillas are handmade but for 3$ a taco, the amount of meat is small. Service is good, ambiance is cute! We would come back if they gave more meat. We just thought 30$ for two people for tacos is a lot. In California, two people can have a 6 tacos each for under 25$. You'll be full. Here, I was still very hungry but at least they give chips. Ask for all the fixings or else you'll waste even more of your money Lol We come from Southern California so we are used to very high quality Mexican food, this isn't bad, just not worth driving to it. If it was more than 20-30min away we wouldn't bother driving.

The Al Pastor burrito is one of the best burritos I've ever had: the pork was perfectly seasoned, beans were very tasty, the tortilla had been grilled prior, and all the veggies were super fresh.

The waitress for our table was busy helping another group that came in at the same time so the manager or owner came to take our drink orders and get us set up.

I had the arroz con seafood and it was a huge portion, so I brought home leftovers. The scallops and shrimp were delicious and well cooked. My husband really liked his a lot--he had no complaints.
