    Sorry to read some of the negative reviews; my wife's and my experience was nothing but positive…read more We visited Galax for a week of relaxation and (my) not having to cook, so we ate out daily. This place was great. Service was fast, friendly, and very considerate of seating, how the meal was, etc. Simply can't give a better rating to the service. It was fairly early evening (or late afternoon), so no crowd to speak of, but the place was clean, comfortable temperature, and again, no negatives. Food itself was just fine. I've a great Mexican restaurant in my town, and this one is on par, probably a bit more 'American' Mexican, but some folks just can't stand the heat, so I'm sure Tiaquepaque has learned what it's community can tolerate and prefers. I had simple pork tacos, which were excellent; usual (good) beans and rice on the side. My wife had an enchilada plate which was also fine; came with a large plate of guac, salad greens, and I believe rice. The chips were great, salsa was good - and I spiced it up to our level with one of the hot sauces that were on the table. Honestly, it was one of the best meals we had in Galax. Will certainly eat here again when we visit Galax in the future, and that's a pretty sure thing too.

    I have wanted to try this place for years. The interior needs updating but the food and excellent…read more The salsa they serve upon arrival is a bit bland The nacho supreme was very good and the Bahama Mamas were perfect. The enchiladas were also tasty. Service is very good.

    The food was ok. Service was less than desired. Waitress took our drink orders. When drinks were…read moredelivered, she didn't know who got what so yelled out drinks to our table (10 guests) we had to call out. My wife wanted a Bloody Mary made with tequila instead of vodka (vodka doesn't agree with her) commonly called a Bloody Maria. Drink came with vodka, we stated we clearly asked for tequila. Food was now delivered in same way yelling out food & we called out. Half way through dinner the Bloody Maria was delivered. My wife tasted it and it was so spicy hot she gagged. I tasted it, now I like spicy drinks & food & I couldn't drink it. We told the waitress & she had the "manager" come out. I explained the problem with it being too spicy. Her response was first Bloody Mary is supposed to be spicy. Plus this was the second drink they made for us. I told her the first one was wrong, manager said they don't make Bloody Maria's (keep in mind the only difference is tequila instead of vodka & this is a Mexican red ). I mentioned how hot it was and she said that I'm wrong, it's supposed to be hot. The Manager was rude at our table & when I went to talk to her in private was more so. She talked down to me like an ignorant child. I am in my 60's and have probably been to 1000's of Mexican restaurants in my life. This was the worst service & treatment ever. Not to mention after our food arrived the waitress never came back to our table, no refills on drinks, no to-go containers. We had to get the containers ourselves, then go to the cash register to identify what we ordered & pay. Absolutely no refund on bad drinks. To add to it they automatically added a tip & never mentioned it. WE WILL NEVER BE BACK!!!

    Food was good and fresh for a to go order. I went through the drive through for pick up and…read moreeverything was included in my bag. The only thing that could have been better was the chips weren't fresh or warm.
