Tacos tacos tacos. Very tasty tacos. I guess the best tacos I've had in quite some time. Service was fast and friendly. I've always enjoyed the seating area. It's so festive. read more

Thumbs up with the interior and menu. I was pleasantly surprised they serve lengua. Had the tacos de lengua. It was a little on the dry side. Liked how they would ask how hot you'd like your salsa for the nachos appetizer. read more

This was our first experience eating here. We were blown away by the wonderful customer service & the delicious entrees that were served. We didn't have to wait long for drinks or food. Our young waiter was very attentive from the prompt order taking to the fast service of the food. The atmosphere was cheerful from the colorful artwork and the happy buzz of the other families & couples around. It was an enjoyable experience and would definitely return. Highly recommend!! read more

BBQ nachos were so good. Loved the queso. Everything else that I've tried was bland and sodas were watery.

It was fantastic I've tried all the other Mexican restaurant in the area and this place out does all of them by a 1,000 miles from service to food it was wonderful I will definitely be back read more

Based on how the food tasted compared to what it was priced at and the portion, I left disappointed. The food did not have a Mexican authenticity to it either. I shouldn't be able to pay $10 less at another local restaurant, have better tasting food and larger portions. read more

It was terrible, there was something wrong with the oil they fry the chips and tacos in. It ruined the taste of my shrimp tacos. But the sweet tea was good. read more

Amazing staff, service, and food. This is the best restaurant in all of the surrounding areas. They cater to large events and deliver the catering order if needed. The interior design is amazing and hands down the most beautiful restaurant inside and out. Love this place . Creative menu and the most polite staff. Best food too! I recommend this place to absolutely everyone. read more

Great Mexican food. Quick service & the food is always top notch. Give this place a try when you want great Mexican food.

Love their Blue Fajita Wrap! My husband and I actually share a wrap with chips when we dine here. Wait staff are awesome. Service is superb. Great place to eat. read more

It's is amazing, and my favorite restaurant ever. I honestly go there like 3-4 times a week. When ever I get back from vacation I go there.

We've always enjoyed eating at this restaurant but I'm hesitant to return though due to the seating arrangements. After waiting patiently for awhile to be seated. We were told our seat was coming open and cleaned. Then another party was seated that came in after me and was aloud to take our seat under my name. read more

We stopped at this restaurant Sunday on our way home. The business was clean, the staff was friendly and helpful. The food was amazing. They have several different salsas and dips for their chips and wow, just wow. The ones we tried were great. We had the Baja Fish Tacos, highly recommend. We plan to go back on a Friday or Saturday to try a couple of their signature drinks. Definitely inviting friends to introduce to this great restaurant. read more

Been here twice service was always good no complaints. Second time we ordered a blue motorcycle recommended by our server and the drink was delicious. As always the food is amazing, definitely a spot worth trying in Anderson! read more

We had a hankering for mexican last night so we headed to the blue tolock. Arrived just after 6:00. Place wasn't to busy and there were several open tables and booths. The hostess asked us to wait for a minute and disappeared into the back. She came back and explained she had no booths available and she could take my phone number and call me when one came available. Since we're out of state she seemed to have a problem with my area code not being 864. There's no place to wait inside or out so we stood outside. I should add that during the time we waited there must have been at least a dozen people leave. After waiting outside for about 2 minutes, a car pulled up with a family of 4. Our party was 3. They went in and as I watched through the doors they were seated almost immediately. Blood pressure rising I entered to confront the hostess. After waiting 2 minutes I decided enough is enough and we left. Karma is sometimes a great thing as we ended up at another Mexican place called el arriero just outside downtown. Basically blue Tolok is a fast food soup kitchen run by complete idiots. I can verify this because we have eaten there several times. But hey it's close and they do have cold beer. Well then for any of you readers here you have to tryst arriero. It's a little farther if coming from the east but it's a real Mexican restaurant run by, wait for it, real Mexicans. The carne asada was to die for and they have colder beer. Goodbye blue Tolok we have a new fav! read more

Everything I have ordered here is exceptional. The Blues Fajita wrap is my favorite. My family and I visit at least twice a month!! Highly recommend it. read more

This restaurant is good and cool because it has lizards. However there are a lot of white people working here. Not sure why that is or how it came about.The food was very good and they have a 8 choice salsa bar. Excellenta ! read more

Blue Tolok Grill & Bar - Bars Near Me - Anderson, South Carolina

I was so excited to visit here based upon the other reviews. I was disappointed to find out this place didn't seem to be anything special. While this may be more authentic than most American style Mexican places, I find it to be far from authentic (the place beside the gas station on Brown Road is the most authentic one I have found in Anderson). Food was so-so and service was poorer than I have received at other Mexican restaurants in the area. I would be willing to give this place another shot. If I return and have a better experience I will update my review, but I won't be driving out of my way to get there. read more

Great food, even better prices, small, out of the way simple tasty tex-mex. Yum! read more

I've rarely been so torn for a review. The food here is excellent. The kitchen staff is a model of consistency. However, the wait staff and front of house organization is truly horrendous. I would recommend going here for the incredible food, but be prepared to wait. For a long time. read more

The Texas Rice is delicious and the salsa bar is awesome and the BEST chips ever! I love the atmosphere and the GIANT margaritas!

Poor management, gave us a SMALL (very small) bag of chips to go with 2 (yes 2 sauces) we ordered with our order. Didn't even last the first salsa and we were OUT OF CHIPS!!!!! Called to see if they could just give us another SMALL bag of chips and they declined.....REALLY!!!! Just a small bag of chips to finish our salsas with!!! Disgusting, disrespect and rude!!! Won't go back! If that's how they treat their loyal customers. Was going there at least once a week. Poor management. Sad. They have those chips on hand like gold!!! It wouldnt have hurt to give a SMALL bag to a paying customer that ordered multiple salsas to eat with their chips. Instead they wanted to charge us for the extra......lol. What a joke! Food isn't that good anyway. Always takes FOREVER TO GET OUR FOOD WHEN WE DINE IN OR CAREYOUT, plan on being there a LONG TIME!!! Disgusted!!!!!! read more

I have been here twice. Neither time was I overly impressed. The food isn't all that great, and the service was slow. I gave it a shot twice, and I won't be back. There are far better places in Anderson for Mexican food. read more

This little place is hard to miss. A colorful exterior and outside dining area gives way to an even more colorful interior, tastefully decorated with frescoes and artwork. Excellent value and nice lunch menu. Many choices on the menu overall. Food is freshly prepared and the nacho bar has several different dips and salsas to suit any taste. Excellent bar selection and good service. Service was prompt and the food arrived quickly despite a lunch rush. Definitely on par if not better than the competition. Excellent portions, not too spicy or hot, steak and chicken were cooked very well, very juicy. The owner was present and made sure our experience was top notch. Excellently blended and great tasting margaritas and not stingy or strong with the alcohol, either. Authentic Mexican with some hints of Tex-Mex. Also has a small kids menu and a limited selection of non-Mexican dishes. Plenty of parking, seating is spaced far enough apart that you can enjoy your meal without having others in your peripheral vision. read more

Blue Tolok Grill & Bar - Bars Near Me - Anderson, South Carolina

Wasn't impressed. Food took forever to come out. No music. Just quiet kind of hot and boring... very colorful and spacious. Food was decent. But nothing special. For the price there is much better out there read more

My husband and I were not pleased with Blue Tolok. It was not authentic Mexican and it was over priced. I ordered a salad that was supposed to have avocado slices in it. When it appeared, it had les than a quarter of an avocado on top of mostly iceberg lettuce. I asked for additional avocado - I received another 1/4 for a charge of $1.75. While the food tasted good, the Anglo atmosphere and ridiculously skimpy portions convinced us that we will not eat there again. read more

Giving four stars because sometimes the service isn't so great. However, the food and the salsa are the best in Anderson! We go here at least once or twice a week!! read more

Service was terrible. Waitress seemed scattered and the guy at the front desk continued his conversation with another employee about something they were planning outside of work-as I stood there check and cash in hand and waited for them to get to a stopping point so we could pay and leave. We had actually planned to speak to with someone in the front before we left-maybe it was just an off night. But this guy never even made eye contact, didn't ask about food/service, didn't even acknowledge us besides finally reaching his hand out to take the cash And ticket I've been standing there with. Took almost 15mins to just get drinks, tried to order appetizers but couldn't even get a word out before the waitress spun around and left the table. Waited quite awhile again to order food. Food came out relatively quick compared to the rest of our visit but half of it was cold and once again waitress was no where to be found. We've been to this location before and service was fair but tonight was just awful. I think this sealed the deal on us not coming back and I wouldn't recommend it. Plenty of other Mexican food choices in Anderson. Family of 4 and $60 for cold food and bad service. read more

Very thin chips that i loved. Not a lot on beer choices but ok. Food good. Really brite eating area so not a romantic place to eat. Music was 80s then nothing so not sure what happened there. All in all will go back. read more

It may not be in the middle of town but it is worth the drive. Great food, prices and friendly staff. Mexican is not even my favorite thing to eat but I love this place. Come and taste the difference. You will not regret it. read more

I don't care about authenticity, I just know that this is great tex mex. The restaurant is comfortable, tables arent on top of each other. The salsa bar is a nice touch with interesting choices. The drinks are huge and inexpensive. The food is some of the best tex mex that I can remember having. Had no problem with service. I'm getting hungry writing this review and wish it was earlier so I could go there now. read more

Do not recommend to eat here unless you have a two hour lunch break, we never got our food, had to eat salsa and chips and the chips looked like they were from another table crushed, they need more staff and salsa is no good! read more

Customer service is all high school teenagers who are very slow and never refill your drink. Food is in small portions, and salsa bar has weird tasting salsa. read more

I absolutely love Blue Tolok (or, as my 4 year old says, "Blue Tacos"). We eat here at least once a week, either dining in or carrying out. The food is consistently fresh and really good. We love the ranch salsa and the chunky mild salsa as well. The salsa bar itself is fantastic and the chips are always fresh and perfectly cooked, warm and thin with a hint of salt. It's easy to customize orders as well. My significant other has a food allergy and also follows a very strict eating plan - Blue Tolok is always happy to accommodate. read more

The food here is great! I conveniently get to order lunch from here because it is .05 miles from my job. So far, I always order pollo fundido with rice and beans and love it every time. My food is always prepared in a timely manner and quick check out service. The only negative (and the reason for giving 4 instead of 5 stars) is the lack of taste in the chips and the salsa. The chips are literally just fried tortillas with no salt or anything else. The salsa is a taste I can't really explain. Now I don't even bother to eat it because of the bad taste but the queso dip is great!!! read more

Horrible! The reviews looked really good but me and my 2 year old son got sick after eating their food! The service wasnt good and they had a huge roach in the bathroom!! read more

This is my second review on this restaurant I won't get into the review of the first you'll have to read it I know I said I wasn't going to go back there but I had to go visit and see a friend as I was receiving the change from my 20 the owner asked me if I was the lady that wrote the review and said she would never be back and did I also sit at the back bar I said yes I could tell she was mad she must have read my review it's not like I didn't tell her I was going to write one from the past bad visit I had I just don't understand why she cannot take constructive criticism good reviews and bad reviews are all constructive criticism good criticism and bad criticism but are useful I being the intelligent customer that I am if I owned a business I would take the good criticism along with the bad and when I did get bad criticism and it was pretty much the same thing that customers are saying over and over again I would fix it I would not ban my customer from my restaurant just because it was a bad review I would take that constructive criticism and I would put it to good use especially when there's more than one customer complaining about the same exact thing that way I could still keep my customers coming in and cash flow going in also but I definitely would not banned my customers from my restaurant it's not like I was going to go back in there anyway but I did get a chuckle out of what she said I would invite my customer back and I would show by giving good service quick service and food hot also notice when my customers drinks are getting low and before they have to ask ask them if they need a nother drink read more
