| - It took me almost two years to find good Mexican food. A coworker had been telling us about this place for months. Actually the one on central but this one is just much closer for us.
Our first visit was impromptu and definitely worth it. We had ordered the shrimp cocktail as an appetizer. It took a while for it come out but once it came out, I understood why. They definitely made it fresh and it had big colossal size shrimp. The shrimp were even a little warm still. The base of the cocktail was a little sweeter than I'm used to but still delicious. Get this, you won't be disappointed. My main meal was the jalisciences which is an enchilada with a steak on top. Omg, I can't tell you how happy I was eating this. Seasoned and cooked perfectly. It had these pan fried potatoes that I couldn't stop eating. I wanted more. My steak was cooked medium, tender and full of flavor.
On our most recent visit we did the nachos for our appetizer and these were good too. Topped with shredded chicken, lettuce, crema and Fresca queso. I didn't finish it because I'm not a fan of refried beans on my nachos but still pretty good.
I also ordered the seafood soup and I had to wait for a bit for this to come out. Our server did not initially tell us it would take a little longer for this meal but since we were grubbing on nachos I didn't mind. They did eventually let me know and asked if I wanted them to bring my son's food out now or wait. So that was nice and considerate of them. But upon arrival of my food, I could smell the aroma and it was delightful. The first spoon of broth made my mouth sing a joyous harmony. It is that good. It had tilapia, clams, mussels, octopus, shrimp and squid. The only thing I was missing was a side of corn tortillas but I asked for some and they brought some out quickly.
So overall, I've been extremely happy every time we dine here. The servers are always professional, polite and take good care of you without being overbearing.
The food is made with love ya'll. Hands down the best Mexican food in Charlotte. It's always fresh and some of the most flavorful food I have had.
