    the outside of a restaurant
    José A.

    A pretty decent Tex-Mex restaurant with a menu with quite a few options to choose from. My coworker and I stopped by on our way from Charlotte to Raleigh, and we ordered the Matador Omelette and the Chicken Chimichanga with fruit drinks. They were pretty good and tasty! The restaurant is located in a big shopping plaza with a free parking lot with a lot of spaces. It's easy to find. Not bad at all!

    Breakfast menu Great healthy options too

    Our first time and really happy we stopped in. Fresh food, great menu, good prices. I really want to come in for the breakfasts. Had a taco salad: Yes the old school way with a tortilla shell. Got to make it my way. Enjoyed every bite. Clean place not a lot of seating, does have outdoor patio seating. They were busy and hoppin (always good to see). Can't wait to try them again!

    Friendly staff, good service, reasonable prices. If you like cheese you will love this place as you can seedl from my photos they do not skimp on the cheese sauce.

    It is very nice to have Mexican food/Salvadoran food with such authentic dishes. This place was fast, well priced and delicious. We got Carne asada tacos, Carne asada Torta. For the Salvadoran dish, we got carnitas and cheese pupusas. I think this place has a little fusion going on but it doesn't take away from how good it is. This place has become one of our top three places to eat. Again staff were super great which also helps the meal be very pleasant

    Taco Kids Meal

    We were on a long road trip a couple days after Thanksgiving, and traffic was horrendous with accidents every 30 miles. Dinnertime approached and I was irritated and hangry. We took an exit in Thomasville as yet another car accident was backing up traffic according to Google Maps. We like to eat local and as fate would have it we pulled into a random parking lot, and there stood El Camino Express. It's a small hole in the wall type of eatery with ample parking outside. You walk into a bright white decor with black lettering, food counter to your right and a long dining room ahead. All the decor highlighted that this restaurant supported the community and provided a local farm to table type of eats. We knew at this point we hit GOLD! They had several folks coming in and out for takeout food, but we were the only ones dining in. Looks like most interstate travelers are bypassing this gem! Anyway, we ordered ACP, Taco kids meal, and Chicken Tinga Birria Tacos. Everything was phenomenal! The Chicken Tinga Birria Tacos were not on the menu, but I asked if they could use Chicken instead of beef and they happily obliged. They were packed with a savory light spice flavor, and the dipping sauce made the dish even more epic. I've been raving about this place to my friends ever since that day. El Camino Express was the highlight of my 10 hour road trip and a welcomed bright spot that addressed my hanger issues lol. If you are driving through Thomasville, make it a point to visit this landmark without fail!

    Sopes

    Fresh as it could be. This is not fast food. It is fresh made to order with love and care. The sopes were wonderful. But the stand out for me was the Burrito Texanas. It was full of meats and peppers and onions and had cheese sauce and more than enough for a big eater. I even went back to it later and ate it cold, still delicious. Sergio puts heart and soul into his food. I'm a huge fan and since i frequent Thomasville often, i will be a constant patron. I promise to take more photos in the visits to come.(I was really hungry) Bonus: You can get fabulous coffee, lattes and such at The Blend in the same space. Did i mention the decor is very pmeasing and seems like a great place to hangout and visit after a delicious meal.

    Great breakfast food and great service. I have an egg and dairy allergy. They have a build your own burial option and worked with my difficult order!

    It's been a few months since my last review and it's only gotten better. Best Tex-Mex in NC.

    Your taste buds will be in heaven. Never ever again going to a chain like Chipotle. Camino is the way to go. Not only was the burrito amazing but service was awesome. Gave us a sample of every salsa to try. Everything was fresh and great!

Our waitress was patient and polite, explaining the dishes and answering questions with a smile. The decor was very festive. We all ended up ordering the same meal and let me just say it was delicious! I've been on an ACP kick for a while and wanted something different. So so good!

    La Carreta is a long term, tried and true option in Thomasville. I've been enjoying food here well…read moreover 20 years, and it's consistently good. With fresh choices, a large menu, generous portions, and reasonable pricing, you can't go wrong here. If you're dining in, the chips are fresh and the salsa tasty with just the right amount of spice. The cheese dip is always a winner. The guacamole is not my favorite in terms of consistency (too smooth) but it usually tastes good too. Today's visit was takeout. We got a Grande Burrito and a Burrito Paisa. They were both massive and lasted multiple meals over the week. I'm a huge fan of the Burrito Paisa with the spicy sauce, and it'll make you sweat! I will say it's annoying they add a forced gratuity for takeout orders (they've always charged a container fee, but now add the gratuity.) This isn't uncommon these days, but I still dislike it. I'd love to see the addition of online ordering to keep up with the era. But all told, a great consistent choice that never disappoints me.

Once the food was ready the cashier charged me,once I got home my wife told me she paid online...we called the restaurant. The girl was rude from the get go, called my wife a liar, cussed her in both English and Spanish. I went back to the restaurant with a screenshot of the order and receipt of online payment. The same girl insisted I was wrong and that we couldn't have ordered on line. Finally a lady came from the kitchen and told her to give me a refund. The girl tried to give me back $22 dollars of our $28 order...the lady from the kitchen made her give me the correct amount. The service (from the cashier) was the worst I've ever received from anyone in any type of customer service role. Plus the food was bland. If a negative number review was possible, I would be leaving one.

Finally got to try their food again for the second time as a dine in customer yesterday. The first time was take out and I normally don't order take out for Mexican because it gets soggy but that wasn't the case here. That's why I knew I needed to go back in person, plus the food was just amazing! I ordered the steak sopes, rice and beans, churros and jamaica. The steak was so tender and flavorful, just how I remembered. Also their salsa verde is delicious! The red salsa (in the bottle) is super super hot so you've been warned! Additionally, the salsa that is served with chips is made fresh and taste just right for the average person. The churros were a win for me and I ordered 3! Hot and fresh! Best churros I've ever had! Also their tortillas are made fresh to order. Wowowow! They have a variety of authentic dishes and such friendly staff. Gisseth was our server and I hope to see her again. I can't wait to visit more often and try all they have to offer!

We weren't a huge party but definitely had some needs and she was on top of it all. She made sure our drinks never got empty, checked in on us without intruding on our festivities, and even found a lighter for us to use to light the birthday candles. The food was delicious! I tried their quesabirria's and it was PERFECTO!!! My daughter tried something out of the ordinary and loved it! (CAMARONES PARAISO) Infaft, everybody loved their food! As with most Mexican restaurants, they did bring the sombrero and maracas, along with a dessert, for the birthday girl. Very happy with this experience. I plan to come back and get more queso birria!

    This past weekend after watching a long 2 day wrestling tournament at North Davidson High School,…read moremy parents and I decided to go check out this near by taco place that we kept hearing about all weekend long. As soon as we entered the restaurant you felt the good vibes with the Spanish music being played in the background. We were greeted with a smile and taken right to a table. The restaurant had a couple of tables, but it seems like a lot of people do take out as well. As I looked at the menu there were a lot of different options apart from the tacos. There were tortas, chimichangas, etc. When it came time to order the food I decided to go with the tacos. I ordered 1 taco de asada, 1 taco al pastor, and 1 taco de pollo asado. I also got a agua de jamaica (Hibiscus tea) it was also very good and refreshing. While my family and I waited for our food our server brought us chips and salsa which did not disappoint. Once my food came out I was super excited to try it out. The presentation was amazing. The tortillas were homemade, the taco was loaded with onions and cilantro, they give you a good amount of limes, some radishes on the side, and bring out 2 different salsas for you to add to your taco if you would like too. Each taco was delicious and very flavorful. I would say that my favorite one had to be the taco al pastor. The seasoning was just right and it even had pineapple in there. If you are in the area I would definitely give this a try, the food and service are both so amazing. You wont be disappointed!
