Food was very good, ordered burritos and tacos, enjoyed all that we tried. We were disappointed with the sangria and our server hovered to the point of being bothersome until it was time to leave and then she couldn't be found. Will give it another try if I'm in the area again. read more

First time dining here. Visiting Charleston for work. Wanted a casual lunch spot and Black Sheep was suggested. It has a pub/bar vibe going on with lots of seating. It wasn't busy for the lunch hour. It was us and another couple. The service was friendly and attentive. We both ordered a flock of tacos. I got the Baja taco, mahi mahi taco and a Thai shrimp taco. All three were delicious. I'd order them again. read more

Stopped her on a Friday night with a party of 7 and was seated immediately. There were a-lot of tables left uncleared of dirty dishes, but that could have been the timing. Margaritas were good as was the threesome flight of queso, salsa and guacamole. I ordered the ahi tuna taco and it was good. My daughter ordered the barbacoa quesadillas and they were filled with meat and cheese, but really greasy/mushy on the outside. My husband got the Hot-mess Burrito. It looked amazing on the outside, but it was overstuffed with lettuce (and it was the briny part of the lettuce, so not real soft). Once he removed it, the burrito deflated like a balloon Definitely more lettuce and rice than meat. Also, our waitress was less than excited to be there. Wasn't attentive at all and not real pleasant. read more

Black Sheep Burrito and Brews - The Hot Mess Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Charleston, West Virginia

Five stars, easily. I can't believe I haven't reviewed this place before. They are known for their taco flight, which you can mix and max. Their burritos come in similar flavors to the tacos, which are very unique. Their wings are delicious, with "un-ranch" on the side. There are some great spots to sit outside, and the inside is adorable and cozy. Great service, every time. Great selection of drinks. This place is a win. read more

This spot had some tasty offerings! I tried two small pours of their ipas and they both were great. Their beers have fun names. I ordered the flock of tacos. My favorite was the pork, then the chicken, and steak was only ok. They definitely have their regular customers. One thing I witnessed that I don't think I have seen in a bar anywhere....A customer ordered a shot of Jameson and asked to have it split between 2 glasses. Ok cheapo..... read more

Fun, hip restaurant and bar in downtown Charleston. Rolled into town and we were starving. Got chips with salsa, guac, and queso to start. Homemade salsa was good, but lacked salt. Homemade guac had a kick, but also lacked salt. Queso was spot on. Taco trio: beef bulgogi (good, sauce was a little too salty. Ahi tuna was just right. Thai shrimp was spot on! My friend loved the steak burrito. Good portions. Good music, fun atmosphere, knowledgeable staff, good food. Good prices. read more

Black Sheep Burrito & Brews is a solid pick if you're looking for a casual spot in Charleston, WV. I went with the Hot Mess burrito, which was tasty and filling--classic bar food flavors that hit the spot, though nothing super unique. My partner ordered a trio of tacos with different fillings, and each was decent and well-prepared. Overall, the food was good, hearty, and filling, but pretty standard as bar fare goes. The real highlights were the fantastic beer selection and the friendly service, which made us feel right at home! The staff was attentive, and the place has a low-key, welcoming vibe with a hint of sports-bar atmosphere. Charleston is such a cute, small city, and while there aren't tons of food options, Black Sheep came recommended on Reddit, so we decided to give it a try. We were a bit bummed that we couldn't check out some of the more upscale restaurants that open later in the day, but Black Sheep was definitely worth the visit for a relaxed, casual meal! read more

Black Sheep Burrito and Brews - The Hot Mess Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Charleston, West Virginia

I always love a stop here when I'm in town. I remember the original location opening when I was attending school at Marshall Uni 10+ years ago. Service was stellar and the food was great as always. My husband and I each ordered a burrito. I ordered black beans for my side to share with our daughter. Beans were full of flavor. Portion sizes will have you leaving full! We aren't beer drinkers anymore but loved the looks of the beer menu! I always enjoyed sours when I drank so I enjoyed seeing some traditional sours on the menu. Service was friendly & food came out quickly. We stopped in for lunch on a weekday so it wasn't busy while we dined in. read more

This is a really good brew pub that serves out of the ordinary burritos and tacos, many with twists provided by Korean, Thai and Middle Eastern food influences. Not something you'd expect in Charleston, WV! I can't compare this place to a traditional Mexican food place based on what we ordered, but just considering it on its own, the food and beer were excellent. The service was also excellent. The decor is typical sports/brew pub. We started with beer flights along with chips and salsa as an appetizer. Among the beers, we were most impressed with their Rainbow Radler, Shot Caller (similar to New Belgium's famous Fat Tire, but in my opinion, actually much better) and their Utter D milk stout. Their Coco Reaper, with Carolina Reaper peppers in it, was unusual to say the least. It was a bit much, but worth a try in a flight. For entrees, we had a selection of weird tacos. My favorite was the roasted beet tacos with feta cheese. My husband loved the schipotle orange pork taco. The portobella taco was also good as were the Korean beef bulgogi taco and the chicken za'atar taco. We love White Duck Tacos where we live in the Asheville, NC area, but this place could definitely give White Duck some real competition in terms of innovative tacos. If we're ever back in Charleston or if they open a place in Asheville, we'd definitely eat here again (and again!). read more

The service was the best part of the experience because the food was a no. Mind you, just because I did not enjoy the queso, do not think I did not sit there and eat the whole little bowl because baby, $25 for one person to eat lunch is about crazy. The queso had the consistency of really thick mud, but the flavor was decent. I tried the bulgogi tacos. That taco was 95% cashews. HOWEVER, the meat on the tacos was delicious and so was the sauce. Also, they mentioned kimchi would be on them and there was no kimchi. Probably my least favorite place I have tried in downtown Charleston, but I feel bad because my waitress was SO nice. I feel like the rating is a little high for the food, but I also may have just ordered the wrong things. read more

So the night of the Downtown Charleston Christmas Parade, we always have dinner first before marching in the parade and handing out candy to the kids!! The food is delicious and budget-friendly!!! We love the "Flock of Tacos" with flavors from all over the world, plus the homemade guacamole and chips! Great friendly service! GM Kevin Madison and his crew ROcK!!! read more

Black Sheep is in a race to the bottom. The food, beer, and service used to be great, but all three now leave much to be desired. In addition, the place is just dirty and in need of a thorough cleaning. It's almost as if management on down just doesn't care. I suspect this is why their location in Huntington closed. read more

We stopped in for a quick lunch-we've visited another location while driving through and enjoyed the food. This is a downtown spot so parking is on the street. We were immediately greeted and served. We ordered the trio of queso, guac, and pico. The portion of chips was generous! Also ordered the steak burrito with Korean noodles as a side and it was all delicious. Solid spot to visit! read more

Excellent service from our server, Alex. We came for weekend brunch while passing through town. with a name like black sheep burrito, you'd expect at least one burrito on the menu. but no burritos for us that day unfortunately. it turned out ok because they had the next best thing for my son...quesadillas. I ordered the huevos rancheros with chicken and over easy eggs. it was uniquely prepared and had some heat. don't get it if you can't handle the heat. Sour cream helped to cool things down. I still recommend to give them a try but don't expect burritos during weekend brunch until 3. read more

The General Tso burrito bowl was super dry and could have used a few more ingredients.

We eat here regularly. Almost always get 2-3 tacos (love the thai shrimp, chorizo, korean bbq, baja) and sometimes get their house salad (which is quite good) and one taco or fries. We never get the burritos because they're just too big. Of course they have a great beer selection, but if you can pry yourself away from beer, I've found all their cocktails to be excellent! They use that great nugget ice. Their house rock, the spicy pineapple, and the mexican mule are excellent and better priced than most restaurants. As much as I love this place, it's in need of a refresh inside. The other locations with the same owners are much cooler and updated compared to the Charleston Black Sheep. It also seems like there is very little promotion, never have live music or events, etc. Seems like management is complacent, but the other nearby restaurants are trying harder. read more

Server didn't put in our appetizer order. Server forgot to bring straws. Server would audibly raise her voice and flap her arms when she was annoyed with her coworkers. Restaurant was not only out of all steak (crazy) but also another server walked by and audibly said to herself 'oh my god we are going to run out of silverware soon' like what. Food ended up being decent after a long wait. read more

This place has definitely gone downhill in the past few years. We used to look forward to going to Black Sheep, but the past few times have made us question that. We stopped in Tuesday 12/30 for a few beers after patronizing a nearby business for dinner and Black Sheep proved why it's going downhill. Whereas the other businesses on the street, including the breweries, were jumping, Black Sheep was dead. The bartender and server were miserable and clearly appeared they didn't want to be bothered. Their attitudes matched their demeanor perfectly. We made haste drinking our beers and getting out of dodge. This will likely be our last time there. read more

I really enjoyed the atmosphere. The beers were delicious and the tacos were very good. I tried the flock of tacos. One was a beet taco which I found to be very good. Will definitely be going back. read more

Black Sheep has a fun, casual atmosphere with great service. The menu is eclectic, offering with a variety of Mexican, Asian, American fusion tacos and burritos. Unfortunately, the execution does not live up to the concept. The ahi tuna taco were fine, but not the best. Similar with the Thai shrimp. What saved our meal was the chicken wings--we ordered the Siracha-honey glaze and were blown away. First off, the wings were HUGE, with crisp, light fry on the outside and were juicy and flavorful on the inside. The wings are served with a maple-ranch which was great. Again, not the best Mexican food we've had (there are definitely better tacos in Charleston), but an interesting concept if "fusion" cuisine is your thing. 4/5 stars. read more

Server was super friendly. Ordered a ton of items because I couldn't decide: Seared Tuna - Wasabi-Cashew seared Tuna, Chili-Mirin reduction, Spring Mix, Fried Wonton, Sesame-Ginger Aioli, Carrot Daikon-Relish, Green Onion Flock of Tacos ... Fried Catfish - Corn Meal Fried Catfish, Chow-Chow, Agave-Lime Mayo Bulgogi - Korean BBQ marinated Steak, Kimchi, Dijon Sauce, Cashews, & Cilantro Thai Shrimp - Tempura Fried Shrimp, Thai Peanut Sauce, Carrot-Daikon Relish, Cilantro Sides: Korean noodle salad + street corn potato salad Really enjoyed the flavor profiles of each taco. The Thai flare on the shrimp was the star. Sides were neat and outside the box. The bulgogi was ok but the cube cut takes some of that vibe away. It felt like cubed up breakfast steak slightly over cooked rather than thinly sliced bulgogi. The tuna burrito was good but the crispy wonton were a big soggy from the sauce. I'd just layer it with the wontons inside the lettuce component to keep it from touching the sauce. Nitpicking but overall a great meal! read more

The worst burrito I have ever had. I had the Mess, it came with little ribeye and a lot of lettuce. The rib-eye that was there was good but there was so little protein for a 17 dollar burrito meal. It was a huge burrito filled with lettuce, rice, cheese, and weirdly tasting black beans. read more

LET ME TELL YAH. Black Sheep bamboozled me with some of the best gosh dang chicken wings I have had in a loooong time. The chicken is cooked to perfection with the perfect layer of honey sriracha sauce on them, sticky and scrumptious. The fries are so crispy you think you just escaped the 7th layer of hell to the sweet embrace of heaven, perfection. Also I think I got like maple ranch and that was so sweet it reminded me of my high school sweetheart. The inside is classic restaurant bar with friendly staff. My friends enjoyed their burritos which is a good sign for a burrito place. Would go again. read more

So, me and my extended family decided to meet up in West Virginia, and we needed a place to go eat. We were walking around and happened upon Black Sheep. When we saw the menu, we were worried, since they had Thai food, Korean food, Mexican food, and usually when a restaurant is a jack of all trades, the food isn't anything to chatter about. Now, this was not the case. I had the Thai shrimp tocos, and they were AMAZING. The service was great, the waiter was really nice to my mother, who wanted the Mahi Mahi on a salad instead of in a taco, and they did it! The ambiance was good, really felt like a brewery. read more

Service was great. Drinks were too strong and too sweet. Food was okay. I loved the queso the best. General Taos burrito was like 75% rice. The tacos were good but it was just a strip of fish on sll of them which was weird. read more

This review is for brunch only. Two of us stopped by for brunch on Sunday, 11/20/22, at 12:45 pm, and were seated right away. The host was wonderful and so friendly! There were plenty of people, but we were seated right away. One thing that stood out was that they have good ice (pellet ice)!! Here's what we got: - The O.G. Chicken & Waffles ($13.95): Really good! The waffle was delish. - Breakfast Flock of Tacos ($15.95): I wish it had come with a side. The tacos were good, but not hot. The food was fine, but nothing special. A solid option. Unfortunately, we didn't try their beer, but they had a good selection! read more

After reading the reviews on both Yelp and Google before going, I'm highly disappointed to have a different perspective. The positives - the place if clean, the staff is ridiculously nice and happy. The small things matter in a restaurant and they nailed this. The problem, oh the problem - we ordered the 3 taco meal (mahi, tuna, steak of the options) and a steak burrito. The first two of the tacos would have been 4 stars, the margarita (meh) and service (solid) which would have kept it there to pushing it to 5 since there are no 1/2 stars here. The problem & issue...Oh Em Gee: the steak was horrendously 'over cooked'. My partner in crime is an amazingly non-confrontational guy when it comes to food, so when the manager came past to ask how everything was, he said 'fine', and the manager went on. A few minutes later he came back by looking at me and said my face read different than his, so he wanted to give me the opportunity to weigh in. Not being shy having grown up in restaurants as a young adult, I told him that I would want someone to tell me that this meat was ridiculously overcooked so chef would look at it and correct for the night, despite my companion not wanting to make waves. His response very emotionally adamant that the vendor subbed what is normally a flank or similar that they normally hand cut with 'this chopped dog meat that I hate'. Read that again. He knew it was crap...served it...and doubled down on the supplier...and had the customer pay for it (and at full price of steak not 'dog meat'). Dude, cook it less, refuse the delivery, make it into something edible, but don't give me an inedible taco and burrito and have me pay for steak while telling me it is dog food. Seriously, so many good reviews, but that food and service exchange was just ridiculous to the point that I couldn't not share. It very much came off as a check the box kinda place which is sad because it. has SOOO much potential - location, vibe, cleanliness, happiness of staff, however not a great moment. The manager will know exactly who I am if he reads this and will know he failed, just as he knew at the table placing blame elsewhere. Own it and don't serve total crap, admit it's crap, and bill the client for pre-known crap. read more

Really friendly ambiance and fun staff. The place has an uber mountaineer hippie feel which creates a total vibe. On select nights they have live entertainment and I do have to say the band performing when we came was pretty darn good. The burritos were good; wouldn't say amazing but they were good. NOW, what was delicious was the guacamole! We were visiting from Los Angeles so trust me. I know good guacamole. The margaritas are generous in size but my tip would be to tell them not too sweet....mine was a bit on the sugary side. read more

The service was good. The best food was middling. The chicken tacos were passible if a little bland. The Za'teer taco lacked any za'teer seasoning. The guacamole was so bad we had to send it back. If it had just been mashed avocado it would've been fine but disappointing, but was rank. The biggest fail was the chicken "burrito". No rice, no beans, no cheese and on what can best be described a pita. It was a wrap and also lacked any spice. read more

We were excited after reading reviews. Stopped through while traveling... called ahead, no egg rolls, no burgers. Should've been the first sign! Little burrito for $13, that isn't that good. But what really bothers me is $2 for each sour cream we added for quesadillas. $2 for a $.20 pack of sour cream!! At least bring it to peoples attention before you rob them. I probably could've went somewhere I didn't order food from and they would've given me one/two without question. Waste of time! Should've went elsewhere... for $35 for a burrito and 2 kids quesadillas, should've been waaaaaay better. UPDATE: That was awful. Bout to hit up McDonald's to get this taste out of my mouth. read more

Summary of the visit: "The food was not limited in flavor". Nachos, vindaloo burrito, and street corn potato salad. The flavor profiles were all over the place. Nachos were fabulous and filling. Came out pretty quickly, too! Vindaloo burrito wasn't quite what I would associate with vindaloo, but the flavors were still really impressive. That street corn potato salad was an experience.... Because it tasted just like that. Also had half a margarita (it was massive and only 11 am). Ton of food for relatively cheap. Would totally go again. read more
