Amazing!!! I ordered some steak tacos from door dash and they did NOT disappoint.For less than $20 I had FIVE amazing steak street tacos! They were SO good and what an amazing value! They also threw in chips and salsa at no cost which was such a pleasant treat. I really loved the meal. I had a hard time making my choice because they have a HUGE menu with many enticing options but I am not mad at my choice! A great dining experience!

We decided to stop by this place while on a road trip. The reviews looked good, so we thought it would be a great choice. Plus, it's minutes away from the Highway.It's a big spacious restaurant. We were seated promptly and brought some warm chips and salsa. Salsa was good. Chips were basic. Service was prompt. The food was just ok. The chicken enchilada verde was quite good. The chicken was moist and seasoned. The verde was a tad bland, but the chicken was seasoned so well that it balanced out. The pork tamal was drier than the Sahara desert and basically inedible because of how dry it. The pork had a strong flavor of raw chili. The tamal is a hard pass. The refried beans were watery. The rice was bland. The pollo tropical was bland. The portions were actually small, but we did get lunch portions, so they were expected to be a little smaller.The prices were good. Our whole ticket with drinks was under $30. I likely wouldn't go back because there was an overall theme of a lack of seasoning in the food.

Outstanding food and service. Our server was very attentive but not in the way. This is our go-to when passing thru Statesville and is highly recommended.

While traveling from NC to VA on I-77, we decided to stop for dinner in the Statesville area near the Interstate. As we had our dog with us, we needed outside dining. This restaurant exceeded our expectations. Fresh guacamole made just before serving, the Texas fajitas were great, service was quick and excellent. Our server brought water for the dog,and the outdoor dining area was quiet and comfortable. Menu options included very interesting soups and seafood dishes as well as the standard Mexican dishes, and the prices were very reasonable.Definitely a great stop while traveling.

Authentic Mexican food for the most part. Service is always good except when they ran out of power and everybody ignore you. Restaurant is clean and decorated like other generic Mexican restaurants. Food is good, meat is tender and service is pretty quick. I never had any problem with the quality of their food. Portion is pretty big too, there are cheaper Mexican restaurants near Charlotte but for a small city like Statesville, it is pretty good place to eat.

While I liked the birria tacos and the table salsa, that was about the best of it. Was there after lunch rush on a Saturday, so you'd think there wasn't any service issues. Don't be fooled.Servers were on their phone. Took 20 minutes to get our order taken. Waiteress had to ask how to enter orders into the kiosk.

We had an excellent dinner date last night at Los Compadres. They had Modelo Negro on tap (!) and made a super good Skinny Margarita. Their salsa was some of the best we've ever had. Slow burn spicy, but not too hot - just right. Chips were good and fresh. Hubby had the Burrito Deluxe (1 each chicken and beef) and I had the Carnitas de Puerco (pork), both delicious. Both dishes were generous in size, we ended up taking leftovers home.Ended the evening with some of the best fresh, crispy Churros ever. The staff was great and the place adorable and clean. Highly recommend!

We decided to eat dinner here on a Saturday night since we were staying at a hotel nearby. There were so many other options for Mexican restaurants but I'm so glad we went with this one! The service was amazing I wish I had our waitresses name, she was super sweet. The guacamole is AMAZING. Made fresh in front of you and you can choose from a small ($7) or large ($10)The dinner portions were HUGE. We are from florida and we were not used to the big portions for such a good prize! On top of that the food was great, just wish the beans had a little more seasoning. Overall I would definitely stop here again if I had the chance. Our bill for two soft drinks, an appetizer, and two dinner came out to $43 (without tip) which I believe is a GREAT DEAL! They also have a menu for daily specials! They are doing everything right.

After driving for 12 hours, we were in need of a couple margaritas. Found them here. We mentioned this to our server, Kasandra, and suggested may a pitcher would do. We got a tower of margaritas that sat on the table and had a faucet on the side to do refills. We had numerous refills. They were very good.We were there on a Tuesday, and Kasandra told it was Taco Tuesday. My wife had one beef, one pork and one chicken. I just had one beef and one pork. They were very good and very inexpensive.The entire evening couldn't have been better. The food was very good, the margaritas were good and the server couldn't have been better.If we are back in the Statesville, NC area, we will make it a point to come back here.

Pulled up at 730ish parking lot empty I guess should have been a sign. Server was just ok. Disappeared for extended periods of time. Table salsa was above average. That's the good part. Now for the rest of the story. Order ACP as did my friends. The chicken I assume that's what it was got bigger as I chewed and I couldn't force myself to swallow it. Honestly one of the worst things I'd ever tried to eat. My friend did the same thing. They came picked up the food and charged me for my tea which was fair. Maybe it was an off night but if I don't get food poisoning I'll consider myself lucky.
