I've been here a few times, this review is the combination of those visits. First off, this is not…read morejust Mexican. It is American, Asian, and pasta too. I've only had the Mexican and American so here we go. A few years ago the daily special was sliders. I ordered those and they might have been the best sliders I ever had. I have not seen them on the menu since. You get the traditional chips and salsa on arrival. They also bring some thin cheese sauce which is a nice add. This week we went for a late lunch on a Wednesday, maybe 1:30, and it was SLOW. Slow as we were the only ones there for a while, and slow to have our waiter come to our table. It was slow the whole time we were there. No Express today. I had the daily special, Popeye Chicken, which was sort of like the typical ACP but with spinach and mushrooms. Overall the only flavor I detected was mushrooms. Otherwise the whole thing was bland. The cheese sauce was bland, the rice was bland, the beans were bland. They served this with flour tortillas so I made a little sandwich that tasted like a tortilla. Megan had some steak tacos that she liked ok but agreed that they were bland.

Their food here is delicious. They have a wide variety from tacos to pasta. Their service is great.read more

For a first- timer, I'd recommend a steak or chicken burrito, but the more adventurous can try the lengua or tripas. There is limited seating available, but since it is in a gas station, I'd recommend you get it to-go. Don't be fooled by its location! The food is inexpensive and most importantly- excellent! Habersham is fortunate to have so many good Mexican restaurants, now put this one at the top of your list.

He finally talked me into going in. It's been on ever since. They make their own bread. If you ask for chips they make them there. I don't suggest going full on white lady and getting cheese dip, because it's from a can for sure. Try the tacos al pastor. Get some sautéed onions and habañero if you have the stones. I can't recommend it enough.

My wife had the street tacos and her food was also delicious. Everything tasted clean and fresh. We did have a bit of a wait. More than usual for some Mexican restaurants. However, many restaurants have food partially prepared and then warm it when ordered. It's fast but not fresh. Not the case here. I have no trouble waiting for good, fresh, and clean food! This was some of the best Mexican food we've had in years. The waiter was very friendly and polite. I would highly recommend Manrique's for dinner.

The meals came out so fast after the appetizer, like 2 minutes, it made us wonder about how things are cooked. Salsa doesn't have any heat to it, so it's good for kids and a weak palate. Guacamole Mexicano didn't taste fresh and no real flavor. The creamed guacamole which came with the fajitas was better. Speaking of fajitas, the skillet should come out sizzling. While the skillet was hot, the beef just seemed off, almost like it was pre-cooked and kept in a warmer. Also needs to be a thicker cut or it just seems like it could come from frozen. Definitely Georgia-Mex. Likely will not be back.

I remember having an excellent torta (which does not seem to be on the menu now) but most other things needed some seasoning. CB has not changed. We were quickly greeted and shown to a table. Also the chips came quickly. The menu is far too large so it took me some time to settle on what I wanted, which was the Tuesday Taco special. Megan ordered steak fajitas. The food came fast enough. I had two carnitas and an asada street tacos with a side of beans. The food was not bad, it all just needed seasoning. Any kind of seasoning. Same with Megan's fajitas. Also needed seasoning and she even put salt on her beans. When is the last time you salted your food at a Mexican restaurant? I watched the fajitas for the first time in my life today. It seems like they cook the meat and veggies to a good doneness then put it on the hot cast iron to bring it sizzling to your table. They brought over the food pretty quickly so that was the first time I've seen the food burn at the table. Many workers came and checked on us, offering us more refills and making sure we had all we need. The fellow I think is the owner came by a few times too. Service here is very good!
