Fajita Chimichanga
Tyree H.

If you're craving delicious Tex-Mex food, this is the place for you! A fantastic little hole-in-the-wall spot with amazing food! I've previously had the Southwest Burrito, and on this trip I had the Fajita Chimichanga (pictured). Both items really hit the spot! The food is very reasonably priced for the portion size. And the service is always top-notch! The first time I went, the owner was at the register to take my order and also brought my food out, and she could be used as the perfect example of proper customer service! Very friendly and helpful! And on this most recent trip, my server was every bit as nice and friendly! While the seating inside is limited (the part of the building that Tex-Mex Back Road Grill is located in isn't very large), there's also covered seating outside. The parking lot is also a little cramped, but don't let that deter you from enjoying this incredible spot!

Tacos and baked potato soup

I can't say enough amazing things about this place. Let me just tell you that the food is incredible and always consistent. But more so the people who run it. You can just tell they actually care and as someone who has worked in the industry for years, it's SO APPRECIATED!! From the tacos to the burgers and my personal favorite probably the wings, you can't go wrong. Extremely affordable. I have never met more hard-working amazing people in my whole life. Me and my husband go there at least twice a week! Elisha, and Olivia and the rest of the team are the BEST!!!

Groovy Beast Is a Must-Try in Gastonia!…read more What a fantastic experience from start to finish! The moment we walked through the doors, we felt the relaxed, upbeat atmosphere that makes you want to sit back, enjoy yourself, and dig into some good food. We had a feeling this place was going to deliver, and it absolutely did! The service deserves a shout-out of its own. Our server was attentive, friendly, and on top of everything, while the rest of the staff greeted us with smiles and genuinely positive attitudes. You can tell when a restaurant has a good vibe throughout the entire team, and Groovy Beast definitely has it! The food? Straight-up delicious! My wife went with the Garlic Parmesan wings, which were seasoned perfectly and fried to a gorgeous golden crisp. I created my own UFO Double Burger with bacon, egg, and Swiss cheese, and that monster of a burger did NOT disappoint! It was massive, juicy, flavorful, and loaded with everything I wanted. In hindsight, I probably could've conquered a single instead of the double! The sides deserve some love, too. The fries were crispy and tasty, and the onion rings were spot-on--not overly thick or paper-thin, just the perfect balance of crunch and flavor. Groovy Beast has the complete package: great food, generous portions, outstanding service, and an atmosphere that makes you feel welcome. It's the kind of place you discover and immediately start wondering why you didn't try it sooner. Do yourself a favor and check this place out! Gastonia has a real hidden gem here, and we're already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended!

It was crispy and sweet and spicy with tender interior. They also had a burger with a veggie patty option I'll try next time! My partner got the salad which was huge and delicious. The fries and honey mustard sauce were also delicious. The service was also wonderful, the workers were joyful and helpful with quick check ins often to make sure everyone was happy.

They also have a nice selection of gifts when you enter. The candle scents are divine! My favorites are Black Sea and Strawberry Cheesecake.

It's the kind of place that feels cozy the moment you walk in. I ordered a medium decaf latte with their seasonal Nutty Nutcracker flavors (hazelnut and almond), and it was delicious--smooth, flavorful, and not overly sweet. My husband got the Jingle Bell Rock latte, which includes caramel, butter pecan, brown sugar, and cinnamon. He had it with oat milk since they were out of almond milk, and he really enjoyed it. They're pet-friendly on the outdoor patio, which we always appreciate, and they even had a small section inside with pet-related items available for purchase--a really nice and thoughtful touch. Both medium lattes came out to about $11 total, which felt very reasonable. Between the festive decor, good coffee, and pet-friendly atmosphere, this is definitely a spot I'd recommend and would happily visit again.
