Carnitas Taco - dry
Fred B.

After having seen some rather high reviews of this restaurant, I decided to give it a try for lunch. This is a rather small, compact place with a small bar area. I ordered 4 tacos - 2 Chorizo and 2 Carnitas, along with a single Chile Relleno as a side item. My order was on the table in just over 10 minutes, and there was a lot of food. The tacos were topped with plenty of onions and cilantro and there were 2 accompanying salsa - one green, tomatillo based, tasty but mild; the other was red pepper based with some heat. The tacos were rapped in a single tortilla. The Carnitas taco was a bit dry, the verde sauce helped a little. The Chorizo was about the same and were surprisingly chewy. Again the sauce helped some but that's just putting a bandage on a wound. The Chile Relleno was good, not great and was filled with just cheese. The poblano had some heat but was more than a little overcooked. The accompanying sauce was tasty but rather mild. The beans were flavorful with some whole beans mixed in. The rice was a rather strange orange color and lacked flavor. The service was excellent, but the food was average at best, and I don't see a return visit m.

A new to me Mexican restaurant in Advance. I like trying new places so in we went. The place was clean and we were seated promptly. The menu is unique. It has a lot of Mexican dishes I've never seen on other restaurants menus. I got the 4 enchiladas. 1 bean, cheese, beef and chicken respectively. The food was good, not great, and certainly nothing of a "wow" factor. It was a good basic meal. No beans or rice with this dish. Service was good. Our server was pleasant and efficient. The food was ok. Nothing to make me to want to come back but I will's give them another chance and try some of the unique dishes they had on their menu. I'll keep you updated.

Food is delicious, customer service is very good. Just the salsa and chips can be better. We will be back to try more menu items.

Chips and salsa

This little gem in Advance I'd have to say has the best Mexican. Great food and service and atmosphere. Live music on Thursday night ! I was surprised at how busy they were too. They have a great patio too . I loved their salsa nice and fresh . Chips seemed a little stale . Great menu choices. Some different than your standard local Mexican place. Great margarita list and all your usual suspects on the cocktail list. I got the enchiladas mexicana, with green sauce and chicken. This hot plate came out loaded and I was already full looking at it ! The sauce was super tasty and plenty of chicken and I really liked their rice and beans which I usually find bland everywhere. Really enjoyed my plate but no way can I eat 3 enchiladas! My friends had the quesadilla grande, with chicken and again it comes fully loaded . She really enjoyed it and wiped her plate clean Also the ACP, better looking plate than most I've seen in other places. Lots of chicken and rice ! Everyone's food was delicious and tasty. Totally impressed with Los Toritos . So great to have a good Mexican local !

Los Toritos #2 is a solid 4 stars to start. The inside is small, yet surprising just how many tables there are. With this said, it isn't crowded and bunched but spaced out perfectly with a refreshing new decor that fits the restaurant. The table salsa and chips were slightly bland to start but I ordered the street tacos for my meal and they were amazing! I sampled the ACP, along with the rice and beans that came with my meal and definitely no complaints. The service was spot on with the drinks never running dry. All servers were anxious to assist in any way possible. I will definitely be returning soon!

Chapo Burrito

So glad we found Los Toritos. Food is absolutely amazing. Everyone in our party enjoyed their food and we voted unanimously that it was the best in NC. The overall winner was the Chapo Burrito! Service was great. Restaurant was very clean with indoor and outdoor seating available.

Texas fajitas for two with steak, chicken and shrimp. More like fajitas for four or five!

Decided to stop here for supper Wednesday night 7/20/22 instead of going to La Caretta every time when stay in this area and I'm glad we did! Wasn't very crowded when we arrived so we were seated immediately. Chips and salsa were brought to the table and the salsa was very good with a touch of heat. Started off with Modela Negra's, one of our favorite Mexican beers and then ordered the Texas fajitas for two which had steak, chicken and shrimp. It also came with warm flour tortillas, rice, beans, shredded lettuce, sour cream and pico de Gallo with fresh cilantro. You could taste that the fajitas were cooked on a well seasoned flat top griddle. As you can see by the photo that was one big pile of fajitas! We each ate two and had more than plenty to take home for supper Sunday night and our daughter joined us, so fajitas for two turned into fajitas for five! Everything was very good and we left stuffed. Our server Angel didn't seem very personable at first but warmed up during the meal and service ended up being very good. With the beers, tax and tip it was right at $45 but that was enough food for two meals. I think we have found our new go to Mexican restaurant the next time we come to Bermuda Run.

Chips came quick and salsa. Delicious and pretty lime margarita.

Visited Los Toritos for the first time last evening. Great service, great food and we really enjoyed sitting in their outdoor area which I found very comfortable. The waitress was efficient, prompt and checked on us often. Excellent!!!! We both got the Chimichanga plate. It comes with two chimichangas and we each choose a chicken and a beef. Both were very tasty. The plate came with rice and beans and a salad with tomatoes, lettuce, guacamole and sour cream. The beans and rice were flavorful. I decided to splurge and ordered a lime frozen margarita. It went well with the meal. Festive glass and served very nice!!! We will be going back. You should try it.

We were both hungry and she said there is a Mexican place right here that gets really good reviews. I said, let's check it out. El Taquito sits on the roadside corner of a small strip mall which shares the parking lot with a larger restaurant and is right next to the auto repair shop. El Taquito is not very big. I think there are eight tables inside and we saw two tables outside. When we walked in we were immediately greeted by the young man behind the counter. We looked at the menu board on the wall and everything looked great. My wife decided on the three sopas with asada. I chose the four taco plate with two pork tacos and two asada tacos, we also bought two bottled waters. The young man told us about the salsa bar as well which looked well stocked with a nice selection of salsas, radishes and pico. We had a seat at a table and the young man also brought us three bottles of sauce and explained there were two mild sauces and one hot. Shortly afterwards, he brought our meals. Everything looked fresh, delicious and yummy. My wife visited the salsa bar while I added some of the mild green sauce at the table to my tacos. We dug in and really enjoyed our meals. We would absolutely recommend to others and will be back!! Yum, Yum, Yum! The employees were both very nice and the prices were reasonable.

A small eatery with a few tables and chairs and a single video game on the wall. The gentleman taking our orders was kind and friendly. We placed our order and paid, our food was ready in under ten minutes and brought to our table. These are very good tacos here. Inexpensive and tasty. Four tacos total, two each Carnitas and Al Pastor. Both style true to type and very good with diced onions and cilantro with a wedge of lime. Good flavor and textures. A decent meal. There are several good taco places in town and this is one of the better ones. Good quality and a fair value. 4 Stars worth a visit and support 01208

Tuesday Taco Night Perfection!…read more Tacos and Beer Paola in Lexington is such a gem. This unique spot sits next to its sister location--an older Stop & Go that's packed with Mexican boots, treats, sodas, and food goods--which already sets the vibe before you even walk in. We stopped in for Tuesday taco night and were immediately impressed. Chips and salsa came out with two fantastic salsas, both full of flavor. There's also a Pepsi cooler stocked with Mexican sodas and beers, which was a fun and authentic touch. The staff was beyond friendly--welcoming, patient, and genuinely happy to have us there. Now the tacos... wow. Finger-licking good. I devoured three tacos: brisket, steak, sausage, and cow head--every single one was incredible. The cheese dip was smooth, rich, and absolutely wonderful. My husband loved his chicken and steak tacos as well. If I had to give one tip: do not skip the roasted jalapeños. Trust me. We'll definitely be back soon--and next time, we're bringing the kiddos.

Always a great experience. This gem is only about 15 minutes from my house and has become a staple…read morefor us. We discovered it several months ago on a whim (just happened to catch our eye on a drive). We've been many times and have tried several different options. Portions are very generous and the flavor is amazing. My personal favorite is the Tacos al Pastor. The staff is always friendly and cheerful. They also have to-go available, which we have done as well. Highly recommend.

In this visit I was looking to try the Chicharron Con Carne, which is pork rind with meat (pork belly). The Chicharron Con Carne were individually huge, featuring a large amount of meat (pork belly) and fat attached to the pork skin. You buy them by the pound, so I ordered a pound and received 3 Chicharron and the cost was a little over $26! These were excellent, loaded with well cooked meat, streaks of fat, and crunchy pork skin. I will definitely get these bad boys again.

It's only to go, but I tell you what they package it nicely for you & it will still be nice & hot when you get it home. & it will feed at least 2 people & comes with plenty of fresh made tortillas. The best I'd the fresh made Chicharron the kind that's crispy skin with meat on it, ohhh it makes you drool it's soo delicious & fresh they tend to run out of it early in the day. They also make fresh pork cracklings. All of it super delicious! I use to go to the flea market to get my Chicharron & they charged double the price, it sat in grease & now you have to pay for parking. This is way better, better price & less of hassle for parking! They also sell meats, cheeses, beverages ...canned, bottled & aguas frescas!
