    Plain pastor tacos with little to no meat. Either use smaller tortillas or bigger portions. $11 for 3 flour or 4 wheat tortillas, rip off!

    I do not recommend this place. Being SoCal born and raised I have fairly high standards for Mexican restaurants and taco shops. Walked in around 9pm and the place seemed to be popping lol...well the food def wasn't. I ordered pastor tacos and the tortillas was pretty decent size, however, the portion was that of the size of a street taco. In addition to the tacos having very little meat and the tortilla being undercooked, the tacos were plain. I only gave it one star bc the Micheladas were delicious! Lol Can't really expect much from a Mexican restaurant in the middle of nowhere, with not many other Mexican restaurants to compete with. In the end I def do not recommend.

    I was looking for mexican restaurants near me, and found Los Compadres. I had never heard of it before, and didn't even know that Valdese had a Mexican restaurant. I tried to call in my order, but when I called, it rang once then told me the voicemail was full. So, once I got to the restaurant I just placed a Togo order. It came out really quickly, I didn't wait any more than 5-8 minutes. It was even dinner time, so I expected it to take longer. The first thing I noticed about the restaurant when I walked in was the fact that it was super clean and smelled amazing. The staff made me feel very welcome! I truly appreciate the effort they put into running a friendly and presentable establishment. I ordered the ACP and the guacamole dip. Both were really good, and the ACP came the way that I typically like it... chicken, rice, and absolutely smothered in quest dip. Yum! I would definitely eat here again, and bring my husband next time!

    What you see is what you get. It'll satisfy a craving for Mexican, but don't expect to be blown away.

    Good place with small and large options, my favorite is the "food truck" section of the menu. Soles and tacos are great.

    The service was very slow, and the food wasnt good at all. Dry, chewy chicken, skimpy on cheese sauce, no flavor.

    So much potential!…read more They do not have chips and salsa No fountain drinks offered....but can drinks are available for $1.25 each despite not being listed or priced on the menu...only one diet option available (Diet Coke) They obviously have tap water but will not provide it for free or for a nominal charge...they require you to buy bottle water for $1.25 each, also not listed or priced on the menu They go so far as to list menu ingredients, but there are others that are not included that will be a surprise (onions, refried beans, etc...) I specifically asked about onions in my dish before ordering despite the menu not listing them, requested no onions and the Gordita still came loaded down with raw onions No card machine, cash only Straws are huge, especially for the small cups of ice they bring As far as the food goes, hot sauce was excellent. I would say tacos were good. Couldn't eat the onion infested Gordita. Went up to pay and found out that they had just as many menu items handwritten on the glass near the cooking area than were on the actual menu. So many more choices that we weren't told about or shown on the menu. Disappointing...again, so much potential!

    The food was excellent! We had tacos two ways and burritos. The service was good as well. I loved…read morethat it was authentic. The restaurant is comfortable enough and the decor was nice and simple. The food was outstanding!

    Being located inside a shopping mall, I honestly did not go in expecting the food to be anything…read morespecial. Typically, mall food tends to fall somewhere in the middle--either just okay or forgettable. However, this restaurant completely exceeded my expectations. The food was served very hot, very fresh, and incredibly delicious. The portion sizes were also generous, which made the value even better. Everything tasted well prepared and satisfying, especially for a mall setting. The service was solid overall. The associate helping us was friendly and attentive, though he didn't seem to know the full menu and had to turn around and reference it a few times. That said, it didn't negatively impact the experience in any major way. One of my friends in our group had an issue with his order, and I was genuinely impressed with how it was handled. They immediately corrected the mistake by making him an entirely new meal and even allowed him to keep the original one as well. That level of customer service is not something you see often, especially in a mall food environment. Would I recommend this place? Absolutely--without hesitation. I would recommend it over many other dining options in the mall. If you already plan on visiting the mall, this spot is definitely worth your time. I was also told that they have a brick-and-mortar location outside of the mall. If you're not a fan of mall dining, I would highly suggest seeking out their standalone location instead. Based on this experience, it's likely just as good--if not better. Overall, the restaurant space was very clean, well organized, and clearly well maintained. Do not hesitate to try this place as soon as possible--it easily outperforms many of the surrounding options and is far better than what you might expect from a typical mall restaurant.Honestly, this particular place exceeded my expectations even more because the meal also came with free tortilla chips on the side, which was a nice and unexpected bonus.

    Papas Express at Asheville Mall in Asheville is a great place to go for delicious food that is…read moreflavorful and fresh. I really like the tacos and everything else that they have available here. I have been impressed with all of the orders that I have made from here.
