    Crabcake taco, Classic Beef taco, Chicken Fajita taco

    I've been here about 4 times now. My most recent visit they acknowledged they were understaffed and they were working very fast and hard and I had no problem waiting. The visit before the queso came out so watery that it also couldn't adhere to the chips. When inquired the gentleman working seemed very offended and we were told that just means it's fresh. It wasn't like that the time before nor yesterday (it was as expected for typical queso 2/3 times). I think their portion size is good as well as flavor. I've tried bowls, quesadillas and most recently their tacos. Great for groups Live they support a cause Definitely will return

    This was a great taco spot. Different combinations to choose from. I will definitely be back when I'm in the area.

    Southwest rice bowl

    I saw Tacos 4 Life come across the Lunch Drop service at work and decided to give it try. SO glad I did! I ordered the Southwest Rice Bowl add chicken ($2 extra) and it was really good! The ingredients tasted really fresh and everything even down to the rice had a ton of flavor. I loved the chipotle ranch as a sauce topping. Another thing that stood out was how HUGE the portion was. I am not kidding you - I ate the bowl for lunch, dinner, and I even have leftovers for lunch today! That's three meals in 1. I docked a star because my chicken was really chewy and overcooked, bummer. But otherwise, so good! I'd definitely order again!

    Lots of food choices in the Arboretum Shopping Center https://www.yelp.com/biz/arboretum-shopping-center-charlotte?hrid=kXDS9G7QtEiB7P3mDe64gA but my Yelp app pointed me here for a takeout dinner. I was able to easily navigate their online portal to order my dinner and when I clicked the submit button, it promised it would be ready in ten minutes. A few minutes later, I arrived and parked. Stepping inside, my order was not ready until... it was. Precisely ten minutes on the dot! Bringing dinner home and unwrapping it was easy. Two soft tacos stuffed with grilled fish and topped with (a lot of) flavorful cabbage and each one had a lime wedge. Not quite easy to eat as the cabbage wanted to spill out, but delicious. Moist and a good portion of fish. For my side, I chose the Mexican creamed corn. Tasty and perhaps a little sweet, it was enjoyable. This was a good meal. Perhaps next time I'll dine in.

    Can you honestly go wrong with a taco joint? I sure don't think so, this place was awesome and the customer service was amazing. I tried the grilled shrimp Hawaiian and Korean bbq with a side of Mexican street corn. Both were delish, although next time I'll know to eat the Korean last because the spice level was a little high for me lol. The street corn was so so good. Flavorful, and creamy and I loved it is served hot. Food took no time to come out but still came out hot and fresh. I'll definitely be back.

    Huge menu with lots of great choices! You walk in and are greeted immediately by one of the cashiers waiting to take your order. Grab your cup, get your drink and then find a table. They have plenty of seating inside and out, so you can sit and enjoy your food under a canopy. They deliver your order and come to check if you need anything else.

His service was quick, professional, and welcoming, which really stood out and made us feel taken care of the whole time. It is rare to have a server who brings such a positive energy to the table, and Orhan definitely did that. I ordered the Burrito Basico with steak, and it was amazing. The steak was tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly, and the burrito itself was packed with fresh ingredients that all blended together so well. Every bite was full of flavor, and the portion size was more than worth it. Between the delicious food and Orhan's outstanding service, this was an excellent experience overall. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend asking for Orhan.

I ordered two tacos, one chicken, one steak. I feel like all street tacos should come wrapped in foil for the 'experience' but then I'd imagine the restaurant would have to charge the true price of $2.50-$3 a taco, what I feel they're worth. I do think the price was a bit much considering what I ordered but it wasn't terrible. I would appreciate fresh house made corn tortillas vs hard store bought ones but it's charlotte after all. And what's with the one tortilla? True Cali tacos come with two tortillas. The chicken taco was greasy and the loose guacamole wasn't able to absorb into the hard tortilla. It was messy! However, I'd order the steak taco again. I loved the pickled onions on the side, they were a nice addition to the steak. Not really a southern Cali thing but a nice twist I enjoyed. Overall, I'd try them again on payday .

If you need cast iron, use a skillet--not a cast iron bowl. Don't drown it in cheese, and please don't cut my steak for me. I'm a grown adult and can handle that myself. On the positive side, the service was on point--our waitress was amazing. The inside was clean and had a kind‑of Mexican vibe going on.

We got two Burrito Fresas (one grilled chicken and one chicken tinga). The burritos had the COOLEST crunchy cheese coating on the tortilla that the hugs all of the ingredients inside the burrito.

SORBET MARGARITAS! I'm obsessed. I had initially seen Que Fresca on social media, specifically for the soft serve margs. And let me tell you - they did nit disappoint.

The idea is that place your order, pick a seat and your order is delivered to you. We picked our seats at the bar first because it was pretty packed for Friday night. We took our time to browse the menu but we knew we'd be getting the IG viral Sorbet flights we'd seen. Now on first attempt we got our food, it was completely cold. We informed one of the waiters and asked for our meals to be remade. So upon getting my food second time: 1 Birria Taco, 1 Chips and Queso and 1 Chicken Tinga, it was warm. The Birria taco was my favorite as the chicken didn't hold too much flavor for me. Now we ordered 2 Sorbet flights. We didn't get them as advertised.. no rim coating and the flavor offerings were duplicated. As we compared what we got from other patrons we saw what was missing and the flavor differences. Overall our meal and drinks were underwhelming and we let the staff and manager on hand know. She apologized for not making our Sorbets with rim coating and the food mishap. As guest of NC for the weekend, our host told us we'd gone to the wrong location.
