    Bacon wrapped jalapeños were delicious but very spicy.
    Cindy C.

    The food was delicious. Great service. Ambiance was perfect for a nice dinner out with your family.

    Chicken and stake fajitas.

    Another great meal... tacos were delicious... our server was awesome and checked on us often. Highly recommend.

    Birria without the dipping broth.

    I've been here many times over the years. Mostly a reliable place with good food and reasonable pricing. Tonight, I had a simple order: two orders of birria tacos with a small queso. 3 issues tonight. 1, no birria broth with the birria tacos. Defeats the purpose of the meal, and a critical item to overlook. 2. The girl at the register had an attitude. For no reason. Not friendly at all, best described as a "what do you want now" kind of temperament. 3. No changing table in the men's bathroom. My wife feeds our daughter, so I change her. Cancun's seems to think changing diapers is a woman's job. After a long drive from out of town, we're hungry, in a hurry to get home, and this made the trip longer but not worth the squeeze. Not very happy. I have never had these kinds of issues at Agave or El Camino.

    Visiting NC, our friends gave us a gift card for dinner here so the five is us gave it a try! The food was all good... the quesadillas were HUGE and delicious!! Warm tortilla chips came out immediately with salsa with just enough fresh cilantro. Drinks were fantastic and reasonably priced. The shrimp tacos used jumbo shrimp which were perfectly cooked with a just spicy chipotle cream sauce, the menu said this came with black beans which were missed but the rice and pico de gallo served over lettuce and topped with a little sour cream were good so I didn't complain. The chimichanga was smothered in a light queso sauce and the beef taco was stuffed with meat! The steak tacos were delicious and tender. For five people with almost two rounds of drinks the bill was $115 which really wasn't bad. Good service, clean if a little sparse restaurant - all in all a good dinner. The lacking star was for their limited menu ... really not many choices but what we had was really good.

You have to try this dish,"ACP!" With chicken only, or the trio, with chicken, steak and shrimp. It has rice with a cheese mixed in, and onions and peppers. Then it's topped with a white cheese melted to perfection! Here's the thing though, the plate must have been 14 inches, and so full of all of that good food, that I think they purposely fill your plate so that you have to take a ,"people bag" home Reasonable too! The only thing is, it's best to pay with cash, otherwise you will pay almost $3 for use of a card, and we don't want to mess with the servers tips. Oh and before you go, build those muscles up, cause that plate is heavy! There were three of us, and those plates were so heavy that a tall young man had to bring them out, I am not kidding. We were oohing, and ahhing, about the sizable portions of the food. A couple of people who worked there, came to our table to see how we were doing! We could only say,"GREAT!"
