Interesting twist on Tex-mex style dishes. We ordered a few different items so we could sample more than one dish each. The puffy tacos are good and a nice change from most similar restaurants. We preferred the mojo chicken over the beef ones basically because the beef was a bit too salty. The chimichanga was crunchy on the outside and nice and gooey on the inside. We chose the chicken as a protein and agreed it was tasty and the right quantity. The plantains were cooked nicely and the drizzle made for a nice contrast. The other sides we tried were the yellow rice and hominy. While we liked the hominy we thought the rice was a bit bland. Finally, the fried potatoes were excellent. Service was outstanding. read more

This place had a cool vibe! It was bustling, had a live musician that we really enjoyed! My husband ordered a grouper taco and a mahi mahi taco with a $4 upcharge to include beans and rice. I ordered the Birrias tacos with consumé. The service was fine but the kitchen was really slow. My husband really enjoyed his tacos, but felt the upcharge was ridiculous. My tacos were good however,the "consumé" was a tiny condiment bowl of something that tasted more like enchilada sauce. It really wouldn't take much for them to raise their game. We would definitely go back. read more

The Good: Chimichangas are very good! The Bad: margaritas are terrible! We had a frozen one and one on the rocks. The rocks was drinkable but tasted like Minute Maid Lemonade in a bottle. The frozen had NO taste...just grind up some ice cubes and serve! So go for the Chimis but stick to water as your beverage!!!! read more

Great service, dog friendly (even inside), and chill atmosphere. Great margs; dare I say my new favorite. They have this extra spice in the aftertaste (not heat) that I really dig. Food was really tasty and cooked/seasoned well. I came specifically for the street corn hominy and was not disappointed. It was creamy and delicious with a lil kick. Chik'arrones were a lil fatty but still yummy, I recommend trying them with the Valentina hot sauce. Very happy overall and definitely coming back every time I'm in Myrtle. read more

Great food and even better service. Prices are good and the live music is entertaining.

Great environment, great service and really good food!! I ordered the chicken chimichanga with the street corn hominy, plantains and an extra side of yellow rice. The plantains weren't the best tbh, but everything else was bomb! read more

Pros: very cute and festive spot with bar seating! Everyone we encountered was friendly and kind! The drinks my husband ordered were yummy (I stole a sip or two). My husband enjoyed his dish, but told me it didn't taste like the authentic Mexican we were used to out west prior to moving here. We also ordered the guacamole and it was good but nothing special. Cons: as a gluten free gal not my choice, I was really frustrated by their lack of allergy labels and mixed information from our waitress. I know my allergy is my problem, but our waitress (who was very sweet!) confused me by saying they didn't have corn tortilla chips, even though the menu said they used them with one dish. I know she was probably still learning so no fault to her, but I wish they labeled it so that I could feel more confident when I asked for modifications. Having allergies makes going out to eat very stressful and a knowledgeable wait staff and/or well labeled menu makes a huge difference! Overall: I was overjoyed they agreed to make me a quesadilla with corn tortillas because salad gets boring when it becomes the only safe option. I would return for drinks and a fun, friendly atmosphere but probably wont make it a regular food spot due to concerns for my allergy. read more

Great place so consistent with food. Band plays what seems like every night. Service was amazing loved Molly.

Food was amazing and the outdoor seating was perfect. Try the mango salsa, you won't be disappointed

Food is delicious and prices are very reasonable for what you get. Busy but not crowded at 7pm on a Saturday. Live music on the deck was enjoyable without being overly loud. Will definitely be back on this trip! read more

I had the pork belly tacos my second visit and this place redeemed itself! They have fast, nose staff and a great atmosphere. To bring it home they have some Mack daddy tacos! I loved em. If you're in the mood for Mexican and a good time, go here and get TACOS! read more

The variety of flavors and taco options drew me to try this place as our Mexican fulfillment of the week. Guac and queso and fresh chips are a must! Bang-bang taco (crispy, saucy, would get again) Pork belly taco (was sweet and seared well), Birria taco( everything you expect with that flavor profile) and Al pastor (quality and umami was present) ALL THE TACOS were good. I'm not a huge tequila fan, but the house marg was delish. GO HERE read more

First time here - had the Chick-errons (naked) with ranch dressing. One word YUM! Definitely will go back just for those! I also had the pork belly taco. It was good, but a bit too spicy for me, so my boyfriend ate it. He had the beef chimichanga and liked it. Nice and relaxing spot close to the beach. Everyone working there was super nice. It was our waiters first day working and he was exceptional. He must have waiter experience. (Wish I remembered his name). But anyways... good job! See y'all again soon! read more

food not so good , especially my tacos tortillas kept breaking . disappointed , appetizer was decent . maybe add a little more seasoning and warm up the tortillas at least ?? read more

Great place to sit and watch the crowds go by, service is good, Nachos and the tacos are pretty good but for a Mexican restaurant the Margaritas mix they use is terrible and way below average! Does not taste good at all. read more

Great queso and pretty decent guacamole to start! I had the chimichanga with chicken and it was delicious! A little bit heavy on the refried beans and I almost cracked a tooth because half of the rice was raw! But the flavors were good, and I hope this was just a one-off occurrence. Would come back! read more

Its a very well designed and decorated place. Everyone was super nice and great. Came to try their Bloody Mary version and it was good but not my preference. It had a heavy smoke flavor. It was spicy which is great but the chipotle adobe gave to much of a smoke taste. We also got one fried and and one grilled taco. Both were absolutely worth every penny. So flavorful and packed with sheimp read more

We had high hopes as we eat this area frequently and watched them get the restaurant ready for grand opening. Our hopes were sunk!! The food was severely lacking originality or authenticity of Tex or Mex or even TexMex. Our food was just bad. The service was below average due to a few factors I'll not add here. Family of five of us and not once did we get a soda refill or request for more of anything. The location is great as it's across from the beach. I'd say eater beware! read more

Fantastic! Family's with young kids who need high chairs, I think there are only 2. We compromised with holding the youngest on our lap until another family was done. Thankfully by the time our food arrived to the table we had one. The food was great and the service to match it. read more

The food wasn't very good - there are other MUCH BETTER Mexican food Restaurants. I'm not a fan of any Mexican restaurant that doesn't offer chips and salsa when you arrive, instead it must be ordered as an appetizer. There wasn't much flavor and the prices were clearly based on the location (not food quality). The service was awful. With our waiter leaving (he had to be somewhere we were later informed) and no one coming to assist us (ie bring us the check) until we waived someone down. I don't recommend but gave 2 stars as the location is appealing. read more

Amazing place! Outdoor setting is cozy, perfect for enjoying their tasty tacos. Don't miss the margaritas! Great live music! The service is amazing including the hosts and Richie! read more

This place has decent food. It's different from normal "TexMex" food. You get a lot of food for what you pay for. At times they have live music which is nice. They are right across the street from Gracious Pig. They have a full bar which I did not have anything from there. read more

l am not one to leave reviews, but this place was INCREDIBLE. Service was great and food was top-of-the-line!!! If you're reading this and trying to decide on dinner, you will not regret this restaurant! Ps- get the mashed corn for your side and thank me later So flavorful! I thought it sounded strange, but I was willing to try. I told my husband it was possibly the most delicious thing I've ever tasted in my life!!!! read more

We went for breakfast it was right across from our hotel and very convenient. The breakfast menu doesn't have many traditional options so keep that in mind if you are with a picky eater. My friend got the breakfast sandwich and it was really good and I got the French toast and in my opinion was very dry but had good flavor. I would get the sandwich if we go back before the end of our trip. Their bacon was cooked perfectly. The atmosphere is very calm and relaxing. read more

The food was very good but our service was awful. Didn't introduce herself, didn't know the menu, got our order wrong, we had to ask for silverware.. I got a salad which was delicious and had a beautiful presentation with a hibiscus flower. We got the souvenir margaritas which are good but pricey. Since you get to keep a plastic glass. They do not serve complimentary chips and salsa. The street corn hominy was amazing. read more

Great local place. Queso and chips spot on, and the fluffy tacos are great. Next time I will be going for the chimichanga as it looked good. read more

This was our 2nd visit and unfortunately we were disappointed in both the food and margaritas. There was some sort of overwhelming taste (too much cumin?) that overpowered the carne asada chimichanga AND the queso bean dip. Chips tasted old. There was no difference between my $15 margarita and my husband's $8 margarita. Both also had a different taste than usual margaritas. Service was good, but we probably won't be back. read more

We were excited when we first arrived. Seated right away outside. This was the first mistake. Nats and flies were bad. We were offered drinks right away but that's where it started going bad. We were glad we ordered chips and cheese and salsa because one hour later we got our food that was not at all hot. It was not bad but certainly did not make up for the bad service. I do not recommend. read more

The best nachos around. They are piled high and delicious. Easily serves 4 or more. Great location and awesome staff!

In town for bike week and was looking for a good Mexican cuisine. I looked at reviews and decided to check it out. Glad I did! My family and I were completely satisfied. No complaints. Beautiful presentation, little wait, delicious food. Great service and drinks stayed filled up. Great atmosphere and unique design. read more

The food is always good at the Lama! The reason for the 3 star review? The service. Waited for a while on my adult beverage. Had to ask for napkins and silverware. My server got a tip but not as much as he would have. It was noon on a Sunday after Labor Day so wasn't crowded. No excuse for bad service. read more

Well I wish I could say it was better but.... We started with the 3 Amigos which is chips and 3 salsas. The spicy rojo had an unpleasant fizz to it like it was fermenting. My wife had the fish tacos(mahi). The fish was rubbery and tasted fishy. Tell tale sign that it was previously frozen. I had the Classico taco. Let's say it was bland and mealy. They need to use single coarse ground beef and more seasoning to give it body and flavor. The drinks well you can tell they were measured if that, as the tasted of all mix. For 14.00 at least they could put some alcohol them. Sorry won't be back! Only high point was good service from Michelle otherwise I would have gave them 1 star. read more
