Gov's Fusion Cantina

It is a cool concept with the fusion of burgers/hot dogs and Mexican food. My experience here was mid. The place is pretty small inside - maybe 5 tables inside but I could see the outside seating being more beneficial (it was 40oF and dark so inside was the only choice). They do have a nice bar area and even serve some quality draft beer. Our food took longer than expected to arrive. The place was not very busy on a Monday evening and the other two tables already had food when we arrived, so I was expecting the food to come pretty quick (especially since we just ordered tacos). The tacos were tasty. The Al pastor tacos looked more empty than the fish tacos. The Al pastor tacos flavor was nice and I enjoyed the sauce on the side, but the taco wasn't filled very well. I was told the fish tacos were scrumptious and very tasty. I feel like the tacos needed a side of chips or something else to go with them especially if you aren't filling the tortillas very well. Suggestion: but I even think serving free chips and salsa could lighten the environment up some and keep customers happy.Overall 3/5 stars. Nice server, tasty food, just wished food had come sooner out of kitchen and tacos were a little more full so I wasn't practically eating half a tortilla.

I arrived at Gov's on a beautiful Fall day in North Carolina that was one of the first where the summer heat began to yield to the impeccable fall. I checked in at the host stand and chose a table outside. Sometimes I feel bad when choosing a table father away from the hustle of the restaurant because it means extra effort for my server but the gentleman taking care of me was incredibly kind and took great care of me. The Sierra Vista hot dog had been recommended to me. It's listed on the menu as having fried jalapeno, cotija cheese, diced tomatoes, and BBQ sauce. I ordered one then the server asked if I wanted two, but one seemed enough (and it WAS!). It arrived quickly. I liked that the friend jalapeno was strips not chips. This helped you get a spicy fried bite each time. I searched and couldn't find any BBQ sauce on mine. Which was ok, but I do love me some BBQ sauce. Also the bun, though delicious, immediately fell apart when I went to pick-up the dog for the first time. Not the biggest deal, but I was surprised because, without the sauce, there wasn't that much liquid involved which typically is the cause of disintegrating buns. The fries were tasty to and I got the housemade ranch. A great combo. A good dog, great service, and a lovely patio (aided by perfect weather): Go visit Gov's!

Not much for ambience, small, noisy, just a few tables. The service was excellent, our server was very attentive. She recommended the daily special of Suisse Enchiladas. I asked for it in a vegetarian version and she said that would be no problem. The presentation was beautiful and the chicken version and vegetarian versions were both delicious. We ordered chips and salsa and the chips were a bit on the thick side, which we prefer lighter chips, but they were home m

Service was friendly and attentive. I liked the small casual inside with lots of TVs and there is a nice patio area. I didn't care for the thick chips with guacamole. I would not order again. My house margarita was too sweet for my taste and I remedied it with lime juice. It also seemed to have zero tequila as I felt zero buzz. I could have bought a lot of juice for $12. Could she have forgotten the tequila? So not a place I would order drinks. The quesabirria tacos were good enough but not good enough to want to order again. 3 small tacos with no side. Fish & chips were pretty good except for the brown fries that were not hot and crispy. If I go back, I will try a burger, but overall underwhelmed at everything.

Great food right before a two week fast. I'm glad I chose the tacos. I could literally eat tacos every day. I got the elote, the carne asada and steak tacos. The carne asada was a little chewy but still good to me. The fries was decent, but not the best I've had. Their sauce choices were plentiful so I got the house.

Came here for a late lunch, so very few people. A small place inside, but they have some outdoor seating available. I was waited on by a nice young lady. I ordered a burger and it came with fries. The burger was good, but it was not cooked evenly. Part was medium, part was medium well. It did have a big slice of tomato and some good lettuce and pickle. The ketchup and mustard was on the table, but the almost empty ketchup was way too sweet...not very good, so I didn't ask for another bottle. There was a small cup of sauce that was maybe mayo based....so I ate a few fries with that instead of more cheap ketchup. I didn't eat many because they were not hot. I am not a big fries fan, so to eat them, they go down a lot easier hot...but these were not. Since it was an " off" time, it was obvious I got the leftovers from the lunch crowd. At least serve them hot, even if they are leftovers. A good sized burger, but pricey. I will not return.

This local burger spot is great! The menu offers a variety of burgers, salads, sandwiches and appetizers. The burgers are juicy and delicious. And the fries are wonderful! I enjoy the ambience of the location. The restaurant is small and comfortable. The environment allows for genuine conversation and a lot of laughs. The staff is friendly and very accommodating. I truly enjoyed my first experience at Gov's Burger & Tap.

It's gone from Al's burgers to Gov's burgers and now Gov's fusion cantina. This is probably the best iteration so far!!!Really enjoying their Mexican fare! Taco Tuesday may just become a weekly thing for us here! The new owner/chef and staff are all welcoming and personable. It's great to have this restaurant in the neighborhood . Don't forget to save room for dessert! Their churros are awesome.

First off, excellent and friendly customer service. I really appreciated the hospitality from the moment I arrived to when I paid for my check. I ordered a burger and fries which came out to be about $20. For the quality, i felt like it was worth every penny. The fries was the MVP. It was fried so perfectly and crispy. What a work of art! The burger was good and fulfilling. I feel like it could've been better but better than average.Overall, pretty cool spot for a burger and beer if you're interested!

My and my three friends go to this place more than we go to our own houses. Every time the service is unremarkable. We are greeted with a welcoming smile every time. Even the countless number of times we have rudely walked in at 8:50 when they close at 9, they still serve us. Everyone is very pleasant, and the ambiance to the restaurant is calming. I highly recommend the Catina nachos, they are absolutely elite. From there you cannot go wrong. I know what to expect and it's what I get every time. Place is consistently great.
