HUGE PORTION SIZES! I ordered the Steak and Chicken Fajitas. The flavoring was okay but the portion sizes is where its at!!! I swear you could fees four people with the amount of food you get with it. Plus 2 plates of lettuce, cheese, guacamole, rice and beans.... which again HUGE. Where it lacks in flavor makes up for it in portion and price point. When I initially went into the restaurant it was super crowded (its very small inside) and I looked over the menu and was shocked to see the prices the way they were. A bit high. Then I got my food. It was worth it. I paid $23.99 for my fajitas for 2 and we barely put a dent in them. The server was super friendly but at the beginning the service was slow. I understand though because it was super busy and a small crowded space makes for chaos. All in all I dont mind it and I would definitely go back. I do need to try the margaritas too! read more

This is normally a fine restaurant but today there were no compadres here. Me and my friends came here after a long day rock climbing hoping to dine on some delectable Hispanic cuisine. A scrumptious looking quesadilla graces me with its presence. I partake in the first bite and observe as my body reacts to the flavor of the food. Rancid. Putrid. The shredded cheese has gone bad surely. My mouth is enveloped with the flavor of moldy dairy. I try to down it but my body was rejecting it. This is not what it normally tastes like. My friends concur as the cheese in their food tastes very off as-well. The manager is brought to the table, and asks what's wrong. We voice our concerns and were told "the cheese was from a new vendor" as the sole reason for it tasting like dookie bun bun mold cheese. We were then brushed off as though the food was perfectly fine. In the end we paid for our food without eating another bite or making a scene even though we expressed our dissatisfaction. Patricia C. Hodgell is often quoted in saying "That which can be destroyed by the truth should be." This is my truth. That cheese was disgusting read more

So much food and it all tasted amazing. Loved the ambiance and the authenticity. The quintessential Mexican restaurant with everything you'd want. Service was a little confusing since I think we were misunderstanding each other a little bit. I'd rather an authentic place with real food than that tastes amazing and servers willing to try and learn another language everyday over a place with food that doesn't taste good and it's real or is frozen. This place is the real deal. read more

I had high hopes for this place based on the reviews and was very disappointed. The mango margarita looks tasty, but did not deliver. It lacked flavor and had a thick syrupy-like consistency. I ordered a chimichanga with beef tips and it was basically steak that was chewy and not tender. I love Mexican food and have lots of points of reference, unfortunately this place was not it for me. read more

First day in Aiken, and wanted Mexican. This was one of the few places with good reviews, so tried the pastor tacos and Mexican sandwich with strawberry margs. Food didn't take long, was really fresh, and margs were just so good. I, as someone who can taste alcohol very easily, was able to taste the tequila but it's ok! Service was good too, always made sure we were ok and asked if we wanted more chips and salsa. Prices weren't bad either. Highly recommend if you're in Aiken or passing by Aiken. read more

Worst experience at a restaurant in Aiken in over 20 years of living here. They got the order wrong, refused to fix it, and were extremely condescending over the phone when attempting to get any manner of resolution. They claim to not have a menu despite having a menu. Don't bother with this place, there are several alternative restaurants that have way better service and food.. read more

I've been going here for years and today was the final time. We got served our food and took a single bite and were gagging at the taste of spoiled cheese. We told 3 separate servers that it wasn't edible before the manager walked over. We told him how the cheese tasted spoiled and he said if we needed anything else and went back to the bar and sat down watching tv. Another 15 minutes passed when we told another server and he came back over and asked if we needed a box. We told him again that our food wasn't edible and he said he asked the kitchen and said it was a "new company". When I told him we gagged and almost threw up he laughed to himself, threw away our food then charged us fully. Would highly not recommend this place when tequilas is right down the road with much better service and food. read more

Good food, and good service. Place is nice looks to be kept clean. I'd recommend this restaurant read more

Los Tres Compadres - Speed - Mexican Near Me - Aiken, South Carolina

Went here last night with my friends and was given rotten cheese and after telling both our server and the manager that our food didn't taste right, we were then given some excuse that they started using a different company...then was not given any apology and was told to pay for our food even though they were still full of food. Extremely disappointed because this was one of my favorite Mexican restaurants! read more

Just finished dinner, husband ordered two burritos combo one chicken and one beef, he got two beef, and they had a funny taste, not good. I had the Flaming fajitas, beef and chicken in cheese sauce, mine was pretty good, lots of chicken and veggies, not so much steak. Taste was good, and plenty to take home. Would we go back? Probably not. read more

Honestly, I didn't like anything about this place. The service was bad -- staff walked past us at least 20 times and just looked at us. We didn't enjoy any of the food, and the flan was actually disgusting. Definitely not a good experience. read more

Food was amazing!! I went on a Wednesday about 100pm and the restaurant was not overly crowded or noisy. I ordered the fajita salad with chicken. The flavors were fantastic... maybe the best I have ever had. The waitstaff was very attentive..... I never had to "ask" for anything. Good was hot and presented beautifully. So glad I chose this tiny restaurant. If I am looking for lunch again in Aiken, I am looking to come back here! read more

If you want a good Mexican meal with strong margaritas then this is the spot. LOCATION I we spotted this restaurant while visiting the smoke shop on that's on the corner. The restaurant is in odd spot next to a motel. Which mean plenty of park FIRST IMPRESSION The restaurant is fairly small (so I recommend calling first to see wait time before going on a weekend). However it is vary clean nicely lit and staff was friendly. FOOD/DRINKS Now to the best part, drinks were good and strong. (Not too strong but definitely not weak) they were perfect. I had a Margarita of course. I can't remember what my bf had lol. Our food came out pretty fast and vary delicious . You get a lot of food for the price. Speaking of price, everything was vary reasonably priced. I enjoyed my dinner there and would for sure come back when in the area. we went during the week mid day, so there was not many people there and it was pretty quiet. read more

A pleasant surprise. My family and I went for a late dinner while in town and the food was delicious! The

Went for lunch mid week, a few people in. But was able to sit right down, service was quick, accurate, and just attentive enough. Food was excellent. Choriqueso is a definite go to appetizer, chimichangas were spot on. The chicken chimichanga was best ever had. Perfectly cooked and seasoned with big white meat chicken. Quest and rice also spot on. Price was excellent. Two entrees, an appetizer and soda for under $35 (before tip). Ambiance - there was a football (soccer) game on. :-). Definite return in the future. read more

Probably the best Mexican food (we had burritos) I've had since moving here about a year ago. We also had a margarita and the chunky guacamole chip dip. The service was friendly and fast! As far as the ambiance, it's a restaurant! It did have nice Mexican music softly playing to enjoy but it also wasn't too loud. A great experience and we will definitely be back with friends & family. read more

The food is great. As Mexican food in Aiken County goes, you cannot beat it. It's the service that sets Los Tres Compadres apart from its competitors. The best description I can give is that they treat you like family. Every person who walks by is ready to fill your cup, ask how you are doing or bring you exactly what you need without asking.if you visit more than once, they'll remember you and sit you at the table you normally like to sit. There is no better customer service experience in Aiken County. It doesn't hurt that the margaritas are great! read more

Los Tres Compadres - Large Classico Margarita - Mexican Near Me - Aiken, South Carolina

I feel bad about leaving a negative review, but this place had a busy signal for at least 1.5 straight hours after answering earlier, and by the time I got to the restaurant, the line was fixed, but they denied having a problem with it all that time. I feel like the owner should be aware of this that they probably lost a lot of togo orders from the hours of roughly 12:45 to 2:15 PM. This wasted me over a half hour of my time and getting all sweaty in the sun to visit the ATM because they only accept cash right now. If they would've just answered the phone, they could've told me that they're only accepting cash. Having the line busy needlessly for 90 minutes when they are open is an honest mistake, but at least own up to it already! read more

Food was awesome and staff was very cool and professional! I highly recommend this place and will be back! read more

4 Extremely good service. Attentive and friendly. The menu is quite large and borders between Tex-Mex and a slight nod towards authentic but by no means would I call it authentic Mexican. I wasn't a fan of the salsa compared to other places in town. I prefer more cilantro and I'm simply not a fan of thin salsa. I ordered steak fajitas ( lunch). It was the standard mix of green bell peppers, onions, yellow squash, mushrooms and tomatoes. The steak was tender. The flour tortillas were a disappointment however. The ends were so dry I had to pull them off. Not homemade. You have a choice of frijoles, rice or a salad of ice burg, pico de gallo, and a smidge of sour cream & guacamole. I choose the salad & frijoles. The salad was sparsely served with pico, quac & sour cream and there certainly wasn't enough for 3 fajitas. The frijoles were the best I've had however; really creamy and almost pillowy. Portion sizes weren't anything exceptional and smaller than other places. Their tea is screaming for help. Maybe Mi Pueblo across the street could teach them the secret to great iced tea because they surely know. The restaurant was very clean & overall the service was the star. read more
