Yucatan - Mexican Near Me - Sumter, South Carolina

Had lunch special, Pollo Asado. Delicious. It came with a salad and rice and tortillas. Service was fast, our waitress was nice. $10 for a good meal. read more

Just got into Sumter visiting family for the holiday and we decided to stop in for an easy dinner Decided to order the chicken fajitas that arrived sizzling with well-seasoned strips of chicken, onions, and peppers--good on the eyes and the taste buds. Their grilled chicken enchiladas were equally good, smothered in a rich, flavorful sauce and topped with just the right amount of melted cheese Don't miss the tostadas. Each crispy shell was stacked high with fresh toppings and packed with a satisfying crunch. And for those who love traditional flavors, the beef tacos were perfectly seasoned, making them a definite must-try From start to finish, everything was delivered a delicious, authentic Mexican dining experience. Highly recommend! read more

We go there like every other day. The waiter is fabulous. He always knows what we want pretty much before we get there. The food is delicious! read more

Started of with chips. Paid extra for the white sauce and Spinach dip. Neither were any good but Spinach dip was very disgusting. Like wise the entrees were bland, typical Mexican restaurant. same ole same ole. Our server had no time for us as he must of had a dozen tables. Never again this place. Describe in one word. Yuck read more

Great chips, great salsa, food is good, depending on what you order. I really like the chilles poblanos, because the red sauce is good, but the cheese is not a good quality. If they used better cheese, the chilles poblanos would be 5-stars! Same for tacos... it's ok but would be much better if they used better cheese. read more

My wife and I had an early dinner today at the Yucatán restaurant and it was a return visit as the first one had gone so well. Even though we had a different server today, China, the demeanor and courtesy was the same. The meal was superb, well prepared , plentiful and quite affordable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Unlike other similar restaurants in the area, we were not rushed through the meal and the ambience was such that we could actually talk to each other without having to talk over other loud noises or music.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will return again and look forward to it read more

I had a taco craving and someone recommended Yucatan -- glad they did! The food was delicious, the service was on point, and the prices were super reasonable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Whether you're grabbing drinks or sitting down for a family meal, it's a solid spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

By far my favorite place to get Mexican food! The cheese dip is top notch and I love getting the ACP, arroz con pollo. The waiters are knowledgeable about the menu, fast, and friendly. They also have a fun birthday celebration. read more

The food is always top notch here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We also like the ambience of the restaurant versus our other options in Sumter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service is always very good but tonight we had exceptional service by a lovely waitress named Cecilia. She was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. We couldn't ask for a better server. read more

I am not a big Mexican food eater but I think this is a good place for a rather inexpensive but good experience. I liked everything I have had here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I have tried similar restaurants in town but this seems to be the best - both from my experiences and from its larger number of patrons.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Yes. 100% Yes. Ambiance: Classic family Mexican American restaurant. Booths and tables, loud music, and tons of decor. It was clean and very busy. Food: Absolutely what I was craving for local dive Mexican food. It's a big menu but basically all the same items served differently. Staff: Always smiling and pleasant and prompt. Price: The food for the price was great, can't beat it in this area. read more

Met a group here. Everyone was happy and the drinks were good. Ordering vegan was a challenge.

I travel for work, I stayed in Sumter for 2 months. There's not a week that I don't eat or oder food from this place. Food: I can be biased in my review because I only ate 2 entree in their menu, chicken fajita and fired whole tilapia. Both of these food were delicious with abundance mexican side dishes. You get huge servings per order, it can serve 2 petson, money well spent. Service, very friendly. Ambience, it does have the Mexican vibe. Highly recommend the place when you're in Sumter. read more

The waitress was kind and personable. She was training a new waitress who was also kind but not as knowledgeable about the menu. The food came out and there was a confusion about the "chicken" tamale I ordered. Come to find out they only have pork tamales (which is not indicated on the menu). Food was bland, salsa was bland and just tomatoes. Over all good service, but taste of food needs a lot of improvement. read more

Yucatan - Front of restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Sumter, South Carolina

Food is awesome and service is wonderful. The menu has a lot to pick from. If you want chicken, steak seafood or dip. My favorite is steak fajitas over rice. Steak burrito, 3 amigos , quesadillas, special nachos with steak or shredded beef. My family really enjoys the food. read more

The place was excellent! Speedy seating and speedy service. As I've said in past reviews I travel a lot, I also eat at some terrible places and have had some places just go above all the rest. Not real big on fast food so I try places I haven't been before. And I have to tell you, this place stands out! Food was great and there was a lot of it on my plate. Our server was zipping all over the place and was always stopping by and asking us if everything was ok and stayed on top of the drinks. I didn't have to wait for anything. I would indeed recommend this place, come hungry because the portions are huge and the prices are right. We spent $36 for two people and it was worth every penny. read more

Seating was very fast even during the dinner rush! I spent a little over $30 for two huge plates of food that I could barely finish. The food was great there was a large variety the menu was huge but super organized! My server Christopher was amazing he was running around checking on us and made sure my drink was always full! I can't remember what I got but it came with a guacamole salad which was amazing! And chicken and rice the chicken had a green sauce on it which was really good the guacamole I highly recommend putting salt on though but other than that it was great! read more

I'm came here because the reviews were so good. The food, however, was not so good. Now I'm not a history expert but I'm pretty sure that when Marco Polo came back from his travels to the far east, word of the spices he brought back eventually made its way to Spain before Hernán Cortés made his way to present day Mexico. In fact I'm sure of it because I love Mexican food for the wonderful flavors and the spices they use in their cooking. I'm not sure that Yucatan is aware of the fabulous variety of spices that can make your food taste oh so good. Seriously, it was some of the blandest Mexican food I've ever tasted. To be fair though, this is another one of those places that Americanize Mexican food. It drives me crazy. When I go to a Mexican restaurant, I want Mexican food. Not a version someone thinks will satisfy my American palate. Don't get me wrong, I love American food but I came here for Mexican food. Sorry Yucatan, but the food was subpar. read more

Literally the best Mexican food...ever! Everything is always delicious, staff is great! Eric is the best, of course. Tacos Tapatias are our fav but everything is great! read more

I mean ... once you've been to one you've been to all kinda thing ... salsa needs a little pinch of salt however they do stock you up on chips .... Our food was pretty good .. I had the Camerones Rancheros which is a little different for me (as I normally always order a taco salad) it wasn't what I expected but it was good .. my cousin had the Fajitas Texacana which looked descent .. she didn't complain .. I did like that it came with a side of chips beans & cheese ... overall pretty descent read more

Food is usually either burnt, over seasoned, or undercooked. Me and the wife have ate there twice and each time we got food poisoning. Not worth the money nor the constant bathroom visit. read more

Our 3rd visit and once again it was great. Super friendly staff, tasty salsa and crisp, flavorful chips. Not dull like some places. Tacos were full& good and so was the burrito. Rice was bland but queso was very tasty. Great specials on drinks & weekday meals. read more

We were seated after a short wait. Our drink order arrived promptly along with chips/salsa. The food was good but seemed a bit bland as all of our meals, although different, had the same ingredients and flavors. This is likely the result of their massive menu and cooking items in bulk. Overall, not a bad experience, the food was OK, and the meal cheap. read more

A community favorite for many years, Yucatán stays busy. Today, they were especially busy and being short-handed did not help. After a longer-than-normal wait, I was seated. I am sorry to have to say they had not wiped and sanitized our table. When our drinks came, the straws were unwrapped and in our drinks. These are small things unless one is trying to avoid getting a cold, flu, or worse. Since we haven't had this happen before, we plan to continue to eat at Yucatán. There is a reason they are busy. Yucatán is a casual Mexican restaurant with good food at a fair price. It's also a fun place to celebrate a birthday! read more

I really liked the food here!!! They serve unlimited chips and salsa and their portions are HUGE for a CHEAP price. I got the fried whole tilapia fish and it came with rice, beans, side salad, and tortillas. SO GOOD! read more

The service isn't the worst but not outstanding. The food is a bit underwhelming, seems suited for people who don't enjoy extreme flavor. A little bland, but good enough to get the job done. Wish they had street tacos! read more

Great food and service. My favorite with the Chori Pollo. But the A little of everything is a great hit. And Great Jumbo Margaritas.

The food is always good here, we keep it simple. We usually order chicken quesadillas, taco salad, and cheese dip. I always order out. One day I sat at the bar to wait on my takeout food and no-one ever asked to take my drink order. They all just talked to each other and ignored me. Other than that, I would recommend. read more

One word... Molcajete. That's it... I'm a big fan of this place because the environment is relaxed and the servers are always extremely pleasant. Food is always bomb too! read more

Love this place! The Atmosphere is just as great as the food One serving is enough to fill two healthy appetites.

I've never been disappointed by this establishment! The staff is always super nice and the food is always quick, hot, and tasty! Definitely the best salsa I've ever had! read more

Yucatan.... MORE LIKE YUCKATAN the only thing good here is the chips the food sucks, this is not authenic mexican food at all I am Hispanic and this is a digrace everything taste like it came out a caned and microwaved no spices... just splat on a plate. The salsa isn't even right.... and I can make that with my eyes closed... I never saw the hype behind this place when I moved here. All my friends said you're gonna love this place.... Umm, absolutely NOT. People with no taste buds eat here read more

Well, congratulations for making the "git your hate on list" there Yucatan. Arrive and get seated in a corner with 2 tables of kids and another single guy... I thought "so, this must be where they hide the undesirable folks... Ok, don't notice much until I look at the window. All I could see in my mind was an episode of Kitchen Nightmares. The blinds were torn up and disgusting... Then you notice the dead bugs... I order the Poblano and asked "is it like the chile relleno pepper?" And she says yes. Oh, great! I get he usual chips and salsa and ask for the spicy salsa (you see in reviews). It turns out to be one small dish of habanero mix... The plate arrives and I'm immediately not pleased. Pictures are included and it was as nasty plate of soggy diaper. For the love or depends, just wrong. They have wifi and you can see a "Yucatan" on the list... But when I ask for the password no one seems to know it. Finally a manager comes over and he's like "where is it, it's called this"... I said "you can see the list for yourself, it's not here"... He's confused and at first acts like its my fault it's not showing up, um ok. Thanks, I'm not an idiot. Then his confusion turns to "Ok, were not picking it up on this side, do you want to move". NO, NO I don't want to move... I left angry and disgusted and sick... This place is gross. Period, end of unredeemable sentence. read more

In general, this is your standard Mexican restaurant. I'm giving them 4 stars because the food is consistently good and the staff is friendly and competent. I meet a group of people up here every week. We are a fairly large group and they handle our orders expediently, especially given that a handful of our group has special orders. They offer a 10% discount with a military ID. Definitely go check them out!! read more

Being Californian, I don't want to be *too* harsh on this place. The waitress was great! But I don't quite understand why there's only 2 waitresses working when the place seems super busy? Unlimited chips and salsa! (No tapatio. :( ) Chalupa... is on a taco shell..... And my carne asada tacos weren't as great. And I was very disappointed. I'm assuming the meat was probably boiled, not grilled? Because the meat's texture was notttttt killin ' it compared to my California tacos. Ay yay yay yay yay. Wanted: new chef? read more
