    YUMMY!!

    My go to restaurant when I want Mexican food, it's absolutely delicious. Best refried beans I've ever had. You know the food is good when the dining room is filled with Latinos who know where to go when they want authentic food. The restaurant is nicely decorated with carved and painted woodwork, so beautiful. The staff is friendly and on pointe. You've got 3 people waiting on you. The food, forget it....it's out of bounds delicious. You won't be disappointed with your meal here. I've seen drinks here that I've never seen elsewhere, real authentic beverages that I can't wait to try. The margaritas are huge and delicious. MMMMM, my mouth is watering right now just thinking about my last visit, might have to go again today.

    What a feast! T-bone with shrimp and all the fixings !! Delicious!

    I have not been here in a year & they still remember me & my favorite dishes. How I have missed their specially spicy chip dip sauce!! My mouth is on fire! Their guac is still the best. I'm gonna try a sampler. Loved it!

    Fajita Nachos
    Alicia R.

    Tried the steak & chicken fajita nachos and both were delicious! They smother your chips with red and green peppers (probably can do without tomatoes or just ask to leave that topping off) but overall everything was great! I especially love the queso and chips. something simple but cheese is so yummy. Also, do offer pickup where they secure your bag and label it and leave it right at the door so you can quickly grab and go. Def will cont pickup..have not been inside but from other reviews, sounds like they have nice decor.

    The food here is truly amazing! I love trying new dishes at El Arriero and have been especially impressed by the Chile Colorado with steak, California Burrito, and Super Tacos! Also the salsa and warm chips are the best in the area. The staff is very friendly and the restaurant ambiance will make you happy with its colorful decor. Highly recommend!

    Of course everyone is looking for a taco spot and I can definitely say this one delivered! I hate hit the PF some doors down for two hours and found myself ready for tacos! I saw a lot of people coming in and decided to try and they were good! 1.25 soft tacos and 1.99 12oz margaritas was the perfect price! Most definitely will be coming back with friends and family hope to see you there! And service was amazing as well!

    Man I loved this place! You know the foods gonna be good when half the patrons are Hispanic. Every open space has painted carvings and the place is just happy looking. Our waiter was great and he spoke a bit of Spanish with my 12 year old who is learning in school. It was just really nice of him. The food was excellent. I got the chori pollo and the kid got some mashup of quesadilla, Chile relleno, beef burrito, and enchilada. We plan on going there for dinner tonight and bringing my husband. I'm so excited.

    My family and I love Mexican so we thought we would try this new restaurant to our area. Salsa and white sauce were good, not amazing but average. The chips could have been a little better. We like out chips warm, light and crispy. Cheese dip was a very nice portion, not spicy like some cheese dips. We did have to send it back because it was still cold. It was good, a little on the thin side. Our meals were very good, my husband got the chicken fajita nachos, they had a great grilled flavor. I got the vegetarian #g. My potato burrito was very very good! I also got a chili relleno it's was good not spicy at all. Only complaint was that the waiter filled up drinks from several different tables at the same time. Hopefully he kept the cups separate We will definitely go back.

    awesome Everything was amazing the food the weight staff…read morethe manager came by and spoke to us to make sure everything was good and it was amazing

    This was our first visit to Charred and will quickly say we had a nice meal. Now I will say that…read moreI've round up my overall star rating. If I could I would have given it 4 1/2 stars, because it was good but not great but definitely well enough not to drop it to a 4. Let's start with the location: very nice and everything seems real clean and cared for. Even the men's room was decent at 6:00 pm at night. Now our server: Sidney was very attentive to us. She took very good care of us during our stay. Now the meal: Again it was good. The wifey had the Blackened Chicken Alfredo. She tells me the sauce had a nice flavor but the chicken really had no flavor. Certainly not a Blackened flavor you would expect. The chicken itself was good and tender. As for me I had Shrimp and Grits. It also was good. It had onions and peppers in it and again the flavor of the onions and peppers just want there. Who knows. We also had the Brick Oven Brie. There was a really nice amount of Brie. So much that the toasted bread ran out way before the Brie. So as I said this was a good place and meal despite my small hits in this review. I firmly recommend this place because I do expect you to have a nice meal. Ps. To the owners: your link to your website doesn't work via Yelp. To potential customers: you will have to go your search engine and find the Charred site.

The host and servers greet you with bright smiles and genuine hospitality. The menu reads like a carnivore's fantasy: Brisket Burn End - offered as tacos or tossed with mac&cheese, it's cooked to a melt‑in‑your‑mouth perfection. Pulled Pork - juicy and richly flavored; be sure to sample the house‑made North Carolina‑style BBQ sauce. Baby Back Ribs - my top pick. These fall‑off‑the‑bone ribs can be served with the sauce on the side or brushed with a tangy‑spicy glaze, finished with a light char for that satisfying crunch. Flying Shrimp & Signature Coleslaw - the crisp, golden shrimp pairs beautifully with the refreshing slaw. Flying Pig guarantees a memorable, finger‑licking experience that will have you planning your next visit before the last rib disappears. Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic, expertly smoked meats in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.
