    Chimichanga
    Deborah W.

    Like my favorite song, I have this restaurant on repeat. I'm a sucker for good Americanized Mexican food. Super fast service, freshly made food, and giant margaritas. It's hard to be sad with a marg and endless chips and salsa. I go between chimichanga and the enchiladas, both of which are classic. I might like the chimichanga a little more because of the queso. Great for groups, and they have tvs for game nights!

    I would not come back here. I honestly don't know why anyone does. We were seated relatively fast and provided chips pretty quick. The salsa is very bland. I ordered the street tacos and they were lacking some serious flavor. The corn tortillas tasted stale and like they tried to soak them in oil or something. I asked for cheese and limes and my tacos were cold by the time I got what I asked for. They had no horchata. I won't eat at a Mexican restaurant again with no horchata. They said "it didn't work there." I did ask for hot sauce and they brought it out. But you have to ask for it. It sounded like they had karaoke or something outside.

    I can definitely say this is the best mexican restaurant in this part of Augusta. Honestly of all the Monterrey locations, this one and the North Augusta location are the best ones. Never encountered many problems or issues whatsoever and I can say their food is just as amazing as their service is. Definitely plan on bringing friends/family for happy hour drinks on Thursday in the near future. :)

    Sat at the bar and waited...and waited...and waited. The employees were talking at the bar, but I was apparently invisible. Asked for a Bud Light draft. Saw him pouring a bottle. What's up? We're out of draft. Ok, tell me that. Almost walked out when no one took my card. First time ever with no tip. But for doing WHAT, exactly? I can call my ex-wives if I want to be ignored.

    Spilled queso

    Literally had my order delivered with all of the queso spilled at the bottom of the bag. Called the restaurant and instead of offering to assist, was too busy blaming the driver. The fact of the matter is, a food item that was SEALED in a bag by your restaurant was COMPLETELY SPILLED upon arrival. You offered nothing but passed blame which does not accommodate the money wasted in trusting your company to deliver quality. I won't invest in a company with crappy morals and horrible customer service.

    Alright amigos welcome to the ball park so I Get here order a Dos Equis lager and they bring out a Dos Equis amber.. strike one but I'm okay w it bc I pretty much like all beer. Anyways here comes an up and in fastball for strike two. I order Texas rice w no shrimp and it comes out with no steak but loads of shrimp 0-2 count not looking good for the home team. Anyways food was good once they got it right so props for that. Anyway the last pitch is coming it's a belt high fastball again.... No way they miss this one. My ole pops orders a half/ half sweet tea y'all know what that is right ? Half sweet half unsweet tea. The man has ordered it for years... I think the lady must of not understood him but I'm 99% sure she put half and half creamer in his sweet tea idk he didn't wanna try it. I attached the picture below. Anyways strike 3 Monterrey loses the game unfortunately. Maybe next time they can pull out the dub just a poor performance tonight

    Looks a lot like CHICKEN!!

    Now I have tried this restaurant twice so far, recommended so I figured I give it a try. #1. The first time I tried them out they were busy. I didn't receive plastic ware, or my rice and beans that I paid for. The shrimp, bacon soft taco was very good. The rice was another hit. The chicken quesadilla was blah, I have had better. Since this wasn't my worse Mexican I figured I'll give them another try one day. #2. Found out the online menu and prices are incorrect. Lunch special #6 quesadillas, rice and cheese sauce for $5.25. Not only does it show the item and price they don't honor the price. That should've been my clue to leave. It was $3.00 more than the listed price . Thank god I always check my food before going home. There were items missing, my Speedy Gonzalez and chips. I didn't find out until I got home. They made me a chicken quesadilla instead of the steak I paid for. The rice was barely hot, and had a lot of hard pieces. Needless to say, I wouldn't be going back to this place. Consistently is , and it lacks that.

    Having a fun girls weekend and needed some Mexican food! We were seated right away and our server provided great service. The food was tasty - started off with some yummy cheese dip!! Oh yes!!! Who doesn't love cheese dip??? :) Unfortunately, their frozen daiquiri machine was down. Bummer!!!!!! Big Bummer!!! I tried the frozen strawberry margarita, nope....I'm just not a tequila girl. :( I had the chicken quesadilla and and chili relleno. Yum!!!! We enjoyed our meal and our visit. Will definitely be back - maybe the daiquiri machine will be up and running next time. :)

    After moving from Atlanta I was looking for a good Mexican Restaurant & after trying several restaurant I have to say Monterrey is one of the best ones in Augusta. Everytime I visit I am always greeted with the biggest smile. The food is always fresh, delicious & everyone is AMAZING! They are very clean and during this pandemic they took extra precautions to make sure everything was sanitized.

    Shrimp taco with pineapples and bacon!
    Angela H.

    I've been on a hunt to find the perfect shrimp taco with grilled pineapple/mango toppings to trump the wonderfully great tacos I had in Miami FL. I decided to come to Monterrey's to give their tacos a shot and I am EVER SOOOOO GLAD that I did! I ordered shrimp tacos with mango sauce on the side and a pastor taco with grilled pineapples along with a piña colada with an extra shot of Bacardi. Two thumbs up and a 5 star review. (Customer service could have been better)

    This is a pretty decent place to eat. We like to get the Molcajete, or Shrimp Fajitas, which are delicious.

    This was actually our first time dining here and we absolutely loved the experience. I ordered out…read moreonce a while ago, but today was a totally different experience. My daughter stated she gives them a 20 out of 10. When we arrived they weren't busy but the crowd started shortly after. The establishment was very clean and chill. Our server was so sweet and the food was amazing! We ordered a large cheese dip for the table. My son and I are fans of empanadas and wr orders chicken and beef. I would have preferred cheese in mine and a little more seasoning in the beef. But, no worries, I added the cheese dip on top. My son and I also had the Burrito Grande with chicken; soooo good. My daughter had the Pizza Birria and it was delicious. She stated it was the best she's had and trust me she's had her share. My husband had the quesadilla el patron. For drinks, I started off with the Pineapple Aguas Frescas but traded it for the Mango one. The mango was better. My son had the fruit punch Jarrito, my daughter had the mango as well, and my husband had the Horcheta. Needless to say, we will return. This is probably our favorite now!

    This is the place to go for some guaranteed good Mexican food. I came here specifically for the…read moresopes which were excellent. I love their abundant meat options, which are basically any meat and style you can think of. Their elote/esquite was ok and i think probably very authentic, but i prefer the (undoubtedly less authentic) version where it's just a little bit of corn in a huge cup of mayo. The service is amazing. They are so nice, and when our little one was having a rough time the waitress came over and tried playing with him and helping out. Every time a server would pass by they'd stop and smile at him and you could tell he was the most popular guy in the shop. The -1 star is just for the ambiance, which is fine but nothing spectacular. It can get quite loud, and the fluorescent lights are very bright and a little off putting. It's a fine place to get great Mexican food, it's just not the most pleasant place to eat.
