    Eat here. It's…read more Sautéed Green beans, dumplings, and spring rolls Entre... general tsos Green beans are thrown in a garlic soy sauce, dumplings have a wonderful sweet sauce, and spring rolls are super crispy I've been coming here since 2016. It's amazing. Best general tsos I've ever had. Super crispy, amazing sauce. There are homemade touches like homemade hoisin, sour cream, Bloody Mary mix, and Bloody Mary mix to name a few . It's amazing. Just give it a shot. Owner is super kind as well!

    We discovered Lucha Tigre thanks to Yelp. We enjoyed our meal here. I give this place 3.5 stars…read morerounded up to 4. Good food, for the most part, and great service. I'd come back. This is a casual, fun, Asian-Latin fusion restaurant and bar. Inside, the space is divided into two sides: bar and dining room. A big "LUCHA TIGRE" covers one of the bar walls and pop art decorates the main dining room wall. They also have a somewhat spacious, partially-covered patio. Overall, it's got a neat vibe. I booked our reservations on Lucha Tigre's website at https://luchatigre.com/ The reservation process was unconventional because instead of getting booked immediately, I had to wait for an email confirmation. On a Sunday, I got a "Pending Reservation Request" email at 2:16pm followed by a confirmation email at 2:52pm, so a 36-minute turnaround time. I got us a same-day reservation at 5pm, not a peak time as evidenced by the lack of customers upon our arrival. However, business had picked up by the time we left around 6:30. The menu had an interesting selection of food and drink. A few good examples of the Asian-Latin fusion served here include General Tso's Chicken Empanadas ($5 each), Pozole Ramen ($15.99), and Pad Thai Al Pastor ($16.99). They also serve straight-up Asian and Latin dishes like pho ($14.99) and tacos ($2 and $4 each). Drink-wise, they had a full bar with a decent selection that included tequila, mezcal, and sake cocktails. They even had a cocktail made with Japanese Suntory Whisky Toki. Here's what my wife and I had: Bebidas Especiales (cocktails) * El Conquistador ($14) - Tequila Herradura Silver, freshly-squeezed citrus, Cointreau Tapas * Tuna Tiradito ($16.99) - sashimi tuna with aji amarillo pepper, onions, cilantro, roasted corn nuts, and fresh citrus; Nikkei cuisine * Bulgogi Nachos ($15.99) - giant-size nachos with Korean BBQ beef, pico, kimchi, cheese, crema, jalapenos, black beans Entrees * Salmon Poke ($18.99) - raw salmon with sesame, onion, and tamari with seaweed salad, rice, and avocado * Pollo Saltado ($16.99) - stir-fried chicken, tomato, cilantro, onion; served over fries with rice and salad In general, we were happy or content with everything. Some dishes were better than others. Beautiful presentation all around. The El Conquistador was a margarita that was more tart and less sweet. It was refreshing. I liked the Tuna Tiradito more than my wife. Tiradito is like Peruvian sashimi. I thought this dish was fine. I could see why my wife didn't like it as much because the texture of the tuna wasn't as fresh and appetizing as the tuna sashimi we're accustomed to. This tuna was a bit more "pasty" in texture. Also, the roasted corn nuts, which we think were the same as hominy, didn't add much. The standout dish was the Bulgogi Nachos. I saw pictures of it on Yelp and knew we had to order it. The portion size was huge and the Korean beef bulgogi was sweet and savory. We devoured the nachos. They were incredibly delicious and addictive. A lot of textures and flavors, and they all blended and worked well together. The Salmon Poke was solid. I recommend it if you like poke. Admittedly, it was better than we both expected because we haven't encountered a lot of great poke in the Chapel Hill-Durham area. Decent portions and fresh salmon, seaweed salad, and other ingredients. I will say the rice tasted plain and not seasoned with rice vinegar. The poke came with two sauces on the side, tamari (a type of Japanese soy sauce) and what I think was a type of curry sauce. The salmon was already nicely marinated and tasty so the sauces weren't needed. The Pollo Saltado was OK. It wasn't among the best I've had, but it was "authentic." The problems with this dish were the chicken was too dry and tough and the fries were underseasoned (not salty enough). Unfortunately, the salad was the best part of this dish. Our server Taryn was great. She was attentive and efficient. Everything we ordered came out fairly quickly. One detail I really liked and appreciated was Taryn neatly packed our leftovers and labeled and dated the boxes. That's an extra level of service you don't get at most other sit-down restaurants. Lucha Tigre opened in December 2012. It replaced the Chapel Hill location of The Original Flying Burrito: https://www.yelp.com/biz/the-original-flying-burrito-chapel-hill You can find it in the Midtown Market shopping plaza, north of UNC's campus. There's plenty of free dedicated parking. I didn't have a good cell signal here and used their guest Wi-Fi. Password was Beefbulgogi1.

    A bit late on my review since I came here for Mother's Day lunch, but nonetheless, I wanted to…read morereview because the food was delicious. I started with a mango fruity drink. It had a name written on a board outside, and I wish I could remember because I would order it again. Then I tried the Pulpo Al Pastor Taco (they had me at octopus). It came with 2 tacos and a side of maduros aka yellow fried plantains. It did catch me by surprise when the maduros came with a crema on top. I've never had it like that and to my surprise it was good. Also, the Quesadilla Fajita which comes with a side of yellow rice. Food was sooo good. It was very busy this day but service was phenomenal. There's an indoor seating area with a bar but we sat outdoors and enjoyed the beautiful day. Definitely will be back.

    Excellent Oaxacan food! Starting off with the chips and salsa, it was very fresh and the chips were…read morenice and crispy. I had the tlayuda, which initially was a bit too hard to eat, but when I reheated it, it softened the tortilla and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Also got the less traditional Crunchwrap with chicken, and that was superb. I picked up my food to-go, so I can't speak much to the ambiance. However, with regard to the service, they began making the food when we came to pick it up (when it should have been ready 25 min earlier). At least it was fresh? But it sucked to have to wait 20 more minutes to be ready when we had ordered it to go. Docking a star for the wait time for a pick up order, but maybe I would feel differently had I eaten there in person.
