The pasta salad was fantastic, and the Philly cheesesteak was perfect. The corn with lemon pepper was such a great surprise. And the owners and staff were incredible--so kind, welcoming, and they took the time to chat. I was so excited that I started eating right away and didn't get any pictures of the food--just know it was all amazing! I'll definitely be back.

My friend and I were warmly greeted and received the same as family treatment. I had a brisket and rib plate with BBQ slaw and baked beans. The slaw and baked beans were excellent! The ribs looked like an end piece with little meat. There were three ribs and the middle one was bone to bone with no meat at all. The little bit of rib meat that I had was tasty though. The brisket was not sliced and had the texture of chopped BBQ. My friend who is familiar with brisket had a taste and said it was good. It looked like a small amount to me for a 27.00 USD. plate of food. My friend had a BBQ plate and it was piled high. He allowed me a taste and it was excellent. Perhaps I ordered the wrong plate; but this review is about mine. I was very disappointed; but not to the point that I wouldn't return. I will order the BBQ plate next time for sure. I included some pictures.

An older interior, hard wooden bench seat booths with a couple tables that looks like it hasn't been updated in decades. It was not busy when we arrived. We placed our order, paid and grabbed a booth. The counter help was friendly and let my partner ask all the questions she had. We went with fried pickles, a club sandwich with tater tots and chicken tenders with curly fries. The fried pickles were fair, seemed like they may have been old? We did not finish them. My club sandwich was okay, the tots good. The chicken tenders were overcooked. All in all, a fair meal, not good, not bad - fair 3 Stars it served its purpose but would not repeat 01276

The prices were reasonable. We sat at a table, which was in between the booths, which made getting around our chairs a little tight. The service was excellent with our waitress checking on us often.

Even tho small on the inside the bright colors really made it feel like you're at a tacoria somewhere in Mexico. Our waitress was amazing but the price seemed a bit higher than the other Mexican restaurants in gaffney. I had a California burrito with coke. Bill came out to be a little over $16. The burrito was good but nothing I'd be driving out of my way for.

First time visit since they opened. Tried the taco's for Taco Tuesday's running special. Three…read moretacos, steak, chicken, and chorizo, were very good. Meats were all tender and flavorful. Typical street taco toppings allowed for the meat to shine. Each served on a soft corn tortilla, my personal preference. We also had steak enchiladas. The green sauce was fantastic. Flavorful and just the right amount of heat. Highly recommend either of these dishes. As for the rice and black beans served with the enchiladas, the rice was good no clumping and solid flavor. However, the black beans were bland no seasoning at all. Could have at least used salt. We will definitely be back to try more items. Glad to support another local business in Gaffney.
