Server was fine. He was attentive. Small food portions. Very mediocre. Guacamole was very good. Salsa was good. Third time there. First time was ok. Second time was better. Disappointed with this last time. Probably will not go again. The place was practically empty. I guess my experience is common. Also felt a little

The staff could not be more attentive and pleasant. The food was delicious and made to order with no problem substituting for preference and dietary needs. The restaurant is in a location being affected by the bridge closure so I hope people will take an extra few minutes to go down Old Georgetown instead of Beach Drive to give them the business they deserve.

Terrible, I ordered some fajitas mix and the meat stank, it was rotten, they should be more careful with hygiene, I know they want to make money but not by selling rotten meat

If you like Mexican food you should definitely visit this place. The service was outstanding and the food was delicious. Also the price was reasonable and there was plenty of food!

We really wanted to love this place. Had heard from family that it wasn’t the best place, but we went with an open mind. We were proven wrong. While the service was great, the food was sub-par. I can see they are trying to do twists on classics, like the pollo crema, but their attempts are pretty bad. The dish lacked character and taste. It appears they make their own corn tortillas. I admire and appreciate that. But they were just not good tasting. My wife had the mixed fajitas. It was very bland. I normally never leave food on my plate, but this one was just not hitting the mark. We ordered the flan for dessert since so many people mention it on their reviews. Again they out a twist and added cracker crumbles on it to give it a crunchy texture. Good intention, poor result. Sorry, but we couldn’t love this place’s food and we won’t be coming back.

We live in Oak Island. 68 mile round trip but it is worth it. Best Taco Salad with Grilled Chicken. Well worth the drive. A road being closed is hurting their business. Good people, please help them out. The business is way down....

This place has gone down hill since the first time I was there eating on site This time it was takeout.After getting overcharged for the smallest tacos I ever saw, I discovered the less than quality and taste of the food. I wanted to make a stop at Taco Bell afterwards. Would of been more enjoyable.Curiosity might get the best of me, might try getting tacos from the new up coming gas station on the corner.

The best local Mexican restaurant. The food is authentic and the staff is great. Never a disappointing going here!

Drove here from vacationing in North Myrtle Beach based on the high reviews. Sorry to disagree, but our experience didn't match. The service was quick and friendly. The stuffed jalapeños were big, but heavily breaded. And the taste was very strong garlicky with an overpowering herb flavor. The chipotle shrimp were a bit overcooked and again had a strong herb flavor. The chimichanga was nicely crisp, but had a heavy internal mozzarella cheese that did not complement. We both left a lot on our plates. We decided this meal was a "2" on the satisfaction scale.
