There's so many places you can get Mexican food from, but this location has to be the ONLY place…read moreyou should get it from. Handful of times I have ordered it to go and it's always hot, fresh, and amazingly FLAVORFUL. A plus to them is that they always have it ready in 20-25 mins. So if you're starving and need something quick, La Unica will have it ready for you. We have dined in, the service is upbeat and quick. I always get the same dish and it's so hard to order a different one. BUT my boyfriend is there to order everything and it's so worth the chance of trying something new. Thank you for existing in our neighborhood and always feeding me!!

Located in a corner unit of a small strip mall, La Unica is a quaint Mexican restaurant that should…read morebe considered when those Tex Mex cravings are bubbling deep inside the soul. When my X and I first moved to Indian Trail, a lot of friends suggested this restaurant as the authority for Tex Mex. It's a good thing they have a big parking lot as they're generally packed, which means people like it. Me? My short reply is it's pretty good. Opening up the doors the atmosphere has a bit of reserved authenticity, no dollar tree prefab gimmicks are there just to plant a flag, claiming to be just like all other options out there. No this is the real deal with a warming atmosphere designed to entice locals to take a load off and relax. The server stand is directly in front and what appears to be a predominately family-owned business. The staff is quick to greet and seat everyone who enters and the place is extremely clean with a low noise level. Lets get to the food, shall we? First of all, I prefer thinner chips as theirs are really thick, but that's not a quality issue. The salsa is darn good and be careful for asking for hot salsa, you'll get what you asked for. Generally I fill up on chips and get something light however I've heard so many good things about La Unica I had to hold back so I could sample some of the former mrs food and gorge on my own. Please note I did drop by twice so I have three dishes I can speak too. First the former Mrs me got the flautas dinner. All the sides; lettuce, tomato, guac, sour cream and rice were fresh and tasty. The tomatoes were ripe and the guac wasn't discolored which means fresh. The flautas were perfectly cooked, crispy with flavorful and moist chicken while not being greasy. Top it with some lettuce and sour cream YUM! My first sample was the Shrimp burrito or I'll call it the Titanic as it was HUGE & IT WENT DOWN! Very tasty with plenty of fat shrimp and all the sides inside. I found it fun to cut into it, pop a bite into my mouth and see which ingredients hit my tastebuds; a revolving experience. Overall, it was very good and not to spicy. For the record, I don't eat beans so I'm not a good judge of what happened there. My final menu item was my best bud, my old faithful, my ride or die - steak fajitas. Again, the sides were awesome no issue there but I found the steak a bit tough. It was seasoned well and tasty but I did some chewing to finish it off. I think it may have been an off day. Other than the MMA fighting steak (implying it's tough) the dish is outstanding. Overall, La Unica is the best Mexican aka Tex Mex restaurant in Indian Trail. The staff is friendly and fast, the chips and salsa are great and for the most part you can always get a seat. Even when busy, the food doesn't seem to suffer. I wish I could have tried more items, alas life has dictated I'm a nomad so I won't be back. But don't let that stop you for hitting up the best south of the border joint in town!

I also got the elote loco. I really wanted a traditional elote but the lady said elote loco and I replied yes, and so that's how that went. Not even 10 min later my food was out. They give complimentary chips & salsa. The elote loco was ok. Not usually something I would order but wasn't bad. I ate it all. Worth ordering twice if you're a fan of the red stuff. My burrito was a decent size. Short and fat. Rolled terribly. All of the guac and little bit of sour cream was on one side of the burrio and the other end had the chicken and rice. There was a thin amount of beans. The chicken was hella dry. Like it has been cooked a day before and reheated in a microwave. The flavor was lacking. The chips and salsa. The chips were warmed, but the salsa was giving crushed tomatoes with garlic. It was more of a tomato than a salsa. Personally, I wouldn't come back but they do have other dishes and so maybe I just ordered something that isn't one of their bests. My total was around $26. A bit steep for such mid food.

Parking can get tricky on the typical busy eat out days due to location in a small retail strip. The restaurant seems small but with a decent amount of seating. Complimentary chips and salsa were provided; salsa has a bit of a kick to it but in a good way. Ordered a small guacamole and let me tell you it was the best guac I've had in years, so fresh and flavorful. I got a small order to go. Ordered the Enchiladas Rancheras, Quesabirria tacos, and one Asada(steak) taco for entrees. Enchiladas lack flavor seasoning and the meat was dry. Birria was decent, a more authentic Mexican flare but could use a bit more seasoning. Asada taco was a no go for me. Not sure what type of steak is used but it was cubed and overcooked. Didn't really taste like steak to me. Ordered a strawberry and house frozen margarita. Both were icee (not smooth)and watered down. No flavor and definitely no alcohol in sight.

Cannot get enough of this place!…read more Have to admit, the last two visits did prove that the chicken soup is not the same as it was the first time I had it there (not as much chicken, was bits and pieces instead of the usual shredded chicken, not as much flavor, a little bland and the only thing moving this rating from 5 to 4 stars), so it was kept me away, but I decided this visit I would try something different. Got the shrimp with mushrooms, rice and beans. So much flavor! Mushrooms were deliciously sautéed and, as the vegan's meat, I must say they were very juicy. Now, let's tawlk about that guacamole that I cannot get enough of. It's prepared in front of you, with as little (or as much) of anything you request. This time I poured the nacho chip sauce over it and enjoyed it even more than I always have. I love this little cozy, at home feel place!
