My friend who was hosting me in Greenville kept talking about it, so I decided to try it out. Only two negatives. I was the first in a line of 6 people and not only was I the last person to get my food--even though the kid behind the register asked for everyone's names--he gave my food to someone else. The second issue is the fact that they were not busy and only had the kid behind the register and one other person making food, and it still took a solid 45 minutes to get our food. Now, negatives aside, it was worth it. Next time I get it, I'll probably order to-go ahead of time, confident it'll still be hot and fresh. I got the Greenville Breakfast Burrito, which is just the Greenville Breakfast Taco with 2 scrambled eggs, potatoes, beans, cheese, and chorizo on a 14" tortilla and an extra egg, pico, crema, and hot sauce. It was good, and huge, and I honestly couldn't finish all of it in one sitting, which is not common for me, especially for breakfast. The place was clean, including the bathroom, and overall it was a quaint little spot. They also had Horchata, so I was a happy camper regardless of the wait time since that's one of my favorite drinks. All together, my bill was under $20. Totally worth it and I'll definitely be back again. read more

This is on the outskirts of Greenville, and there is more of a concentration of Hispanic businesses in the area than I had ever seen on my previous trips through the area (a market named after the Mayan city of Tikal is the next block down). This place was clean and quiet. They had a reasonably vegetarian-friendly menu. Unfortunately, they were out of cactus, but I was still able to get my tacos with beans. They delivered a proper taco taste, with freshly chopped vegetables and ample cilantro. A powerful hot sauce was hardly necessary; I reserved it for the leftover chips from my "comal caviar", a mixed bean and tortilla chip appetizer. They do have a second location a bit east of here, and I may come back sometime to see if I can get some cactus. read more

Divey little Mexican joint on the outskirts of West Village. Parking is limited so you might have to work your own spot in. Order at the counter and they bring the food out to your table - process super easy and simple. Friendly service and staff as well! Food was outstanding. My fiancé got the chicken burrito (leftovers for the next day) and I got the birria quesitacos. Will absolutely be returning here just for the tacos. The birria melted in your mouth and if you add the broth.... Wow. Incredible! Can't wait to come back soon! read more

Let's talk about food. Yum. So freaking welcoming when I came in, I ordered to go and sat and talked to one of the employees. There was one woman on the grill making that food with love. Any questions I had were answered. The menu wasn't huge and neither was the restaurant but the LOVE AND FLAVOR took the win. For my first time I was nervous but I'm so glad I did, I devoured my food and my Jamaica water was pretty good . I really enjoy the atmosphere.

We were starving and we decided to try this place as we were not familiar with the area and it had good reviews. Service was great, staff was friendly, ambience was quite and food was OK. I went with a safe choice which was tacos but I ordered a birria ramen for my kid and it was just a really bad choice. I ordered the ramen without the meat, thinking it wasn't going to contain the birria consume but it did. I tried to eat it since my kid didn't want to eat but I wasn't a fan. I tried to order a taco that was in the review with a specific looking salsa but the staff couldn't point out what salsa it was. Was a little disappointed there. Overall it was good. read more

The quesadillas are delicious too--classic, but made so fresh that they stand out. And don't skip the hot salsa! It's the perfect balance: full of flavor with just the right kick of heat.

Locally owned - Comal 864 serves up traditional border cuisine from the owner's hometown of Brownsville, Texas. The modest menu allows the restaurant to focus on serving quality dishes to patrons. House made tortilla chips and salsa are the best in the Upstate and shouldn't be left off the order! The tacos are prepared traditionally with just onion, cilantro & optional cotija cheese. Follow them on social media for fun daily special announcements, karaoke nights, and more! Comal 864 is located just outside of downtown Greenville, with free & convenient parking on site. read more

I had been wanting to check this place out after hearing all the awards and nominations they received and was underwhelmed unfortunately. Service: Fantastic, very attentive staff and very cordial. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the service and wish more places were like this. Food: I had the Barbacoa special, wife had a tortilla like sandwich, kids had a quesadilla and rice and beans. Their tortillas are thicc so that was nice. Wife enjoyed what she ate but it was difficult to eat and very messy. Kids quesadilla was fine, rice was good. Beans were some of the worst beans I've ever had at a restaurant. Completely flavorless, almost like someone dumped a can of beans and heated it up and served it. Barbacoa was unfortunately nothing special, not that flavorful and I had a big piece of connective tissue that was inedible. Not impressed. Value - Prices were reasonable if the food had flavor, 65 for a family of 4 with 1 beer is a little steep for what we had. I would try it again if I'm in the neighborhood but wouldn't go out of my way. read more

We loved this spot! So glad we discovered it. Quite the popular joint on a Saturday night. It was hard to get a table, since smaller inside. We had to wait a few minutes after ordering and stalk some to grab as they left lol. Worth it. The menu looked great. The perfect mix of authentic and fusion foodie items. The atmosphere in there was great. The staff was so friendly and welcoming to everyone. The girl at the register was so nice and let my visiting dad ask her all the questions lol. The manager was awesome-- high energy and fun-- kept everyone happy. Good hospitality! We ordered a little of everything to all share and try. Being raised in CA w all Mexican people and eating in Mexican homes, I'm spoiled and very picky. I need the real deal, authentic stuff. I read the owners were from Texas and I was skeptical.. I didn't want Tex Mex style. But then I read the reviews, saw the pics, and saw they had mulitas and nopales. Done deal! We ordered: The quesa birria tacos (comes w 3 and the consumé, which is the dipping broth.) Think French Dip sandwich, but tacos. Birria is like a stew meat (traditionally goat, often pork or beef now), and tortillas are pan fried. A bit on the heavy, greasy, heartier side. It's not ever my fav no matter where I eat it, but the guys ate it up, and it's very popular all over. They loved it. We ordered two mulitas: a chicken one and a beef one. I was shocked that they were so big! The ones I'm used to in CA are mini. But these were great! They're like a taco and quesadilla had a baby. Lol They stuff it like a quesadilla w all the fixings and cheese, and pan fry so the ends all around it get crispy and make the cheese ends crispy. Delicious!! I loved the chicken more, but I'm picky w steak texture. The guys loved both! The homemade guacamole was great! Flavorful and fresh! The three street tacos we tried were: Al Pastor (marinated pork), Asada (grilled steak), and Nopales (grilled prickly pear cactus! Hard to find at most spots unless authentic. So good!) loved them all. My son had his usual basic chicken and cheese tacos on flour tortillas lol. Boringgggg. But he liked them. They had a local lady selling her desserts in there at a back table. Many families, college kids, eclectic single folks, alike, all up in there enjoying this deliciousness! This part of town is slowly getting gentrified, slowly growing out from Pendelton St, it seems. Hope for more new food spots coming in like this one. I read they recently received a food award, so no wonder they were busy. Prices were very reasonable. We will be back! Everyone is still talking about it from a week or more ago. read more

We ordered five tacos for about $30, including a drink, and we also got some nachos. The buffalo chicken is always to die for! It's little spicy but always a good piece of chicken. Then, I tried the Korean pork belly, which was crispy, packed with flavor, and soft on the inside. The service is fast, even when there's a long line. The tacos are original and different, but delicious. There's always plenty of seating inside and outside. I would for sure go back for the great flavors and service.

Chips and salsa are not complimentary, but you do get these cute little wagon wheel looking chips called duros. They're like puffed air and remind me of pork rinds but not as crunchy and probably made from flour. The drinks are all delicious and strong. The margaritas are small but watch out, they'll sneak up on you! Lots of options. They specialize in tequila and mezcal with flights as an option. The bar is the spot to be; bartenders are friendly and they have small TVs to watch whatever sports are in season. The atmosphere is a little lacking in my opinion, but it's all about the food. Food is delicious and the portions are larger than expected. We got the chips and queso, Heidi's Flautas, soup of the day, and the Birria Egg Rolls. Too much food for 2 people so we took some home. Location is in a strip mall; parking is tight and can be a challenge. We won't let that stop us though! We will be back for those delicious Birria Egg Rolls and margaritas!

The first thing that came out was the Mexican Street Corn Fries. Amazing. Highly recommend it. The picture that I saw on Yelp didn't do it justice so I took one that looks more appealing. The breakfast burrito is huge. I ate maybe 1/3 and had to take the rest to go. The Agua Frescas were fresh and fantastic. Best Horchata I have had in a long time. My wife has the Comal Toast and said it wasn't bad. It was all right. My wife is not extremely expressive when it comes to her food so sounds like it was good to me. Staff is friendly and it was a pretty relaxed atmosphere. Appears to have a full bar as well.

Overall, i'm very pleased with the staff change and service that I have received from Patrick as well as Kayla, who is one of the other bartenders.

We ordered al pastor, and the meat was extremely dry and lacked flavor. We spent over $70 on a few burritos and tacos, but our order was missing items that were supposed to be included--chips, beans, and rice. For families, a heads up: the kids' fish taco had bones in it. Customer service was also pretty subpar. There was no courteous greeting or even a quick intro, and we mentioned it was our first time there. It didn't feel welcoming, and combined with the food issues, it just wasn't a great experience. Unfortunately, we won't be back.

You sit cafeteria style in the center where they have lots of cute booths and tables. We ordered drinks at the bar at Automatic Tacos first and then got in line to order tacos. There were lots of options for drink selections, we all ordered something totally different to try. I had the pina colada azul, which was delicious and refreshing! I tasted my friend's drinks and they were equally tasty! Taco time... we love tacos!! We were so excited to try a place we found on yelp! We each ordered an appetizer.. chips and the trio of salsas and guacamole, chips and queso and the AMAZING crispy Brussel sprouts! The queso was delicious too... it was a different texture than your typical queso dip, it was thick and so yummy! The guacamole was also very tasty. The chips were super crispy! The amazing crispy Brussels were my favorite thing we ordered, they were so good! I would seriously eat them for a meal! There were so many options for tacos! We all ordered something different so we could all try different ones. I ordered the Nashville Hot Chicken and Green Curry Shrimp. The hot chicken one was awesome and I loved the fried avocado from the Green Curry Shrimp taco. The shrimp however had a fishy taste so I didn't eat it. I eat shrimp all of the time, I am from the Lowcountry, so I know not to eat shrimp that tastes fishy! I took off one star for the shrimp.. everything else was delicious! We will definitely be back next time we are in Greenville!

On the left side of the windows you'll see the Spanish names for the meats offered, the right side has the English names. Get the pastor (pork) and chicken, such good flavor! The "head" option is when they roast the whole head of the cow, not sure what that means exactly but I did try it one time, a little too far out of my comfort zone. The picnic tables out front offer cucumbers and radishes to cool down your mouth from the intense hot sauces (green and red), I avoid both cause they're a bit too much for me. The table also has onions and peppers which I load up on my tacos and pico de gallo. Don't forget to eat the sweet caramelized onion offered on each taco purchase! Since this is located on Pleasantburg it can be a heck of a deal to turn left out of here. Make sure you cut through the back road Sweetbriar and across the parking lot of Bi-LO to get onto E. North St instead to turn left easy.

The interiors are colorfully decorated with plenty of indoor or bar area seating, and limited patio seating out front. I liked that their menu had cheaper options for food for those not looking to eat a full meal, which makes it ideal for visiting either before or after a game at the adjacent ballpark. Meals start off with complimentary chips and salsa, which is always appreciated while waiting for meals to be prepared. I went with 2 chicken quesadillas (one with grilled chicken and one with shredded chicken). I found both to be extremely flavorful, with high quality tortilla shell and wonderfully delicious cheese that hit all the right notes with me. Service was extremely quick and friendly as well. I wouldn't hesitate to return and would gladly recommend Viva Villa to others looking for good Mexican food in Greenville.

This place is fantastic! It is a supermarket oriented to the Mexican/Hispanic community which…read moremeans it has a great selection of items one would find in the supermarket for Mexican or Latin American recipes. My first visit here was to find corn husks and masa flour for homemade tamales. Upon entering the store, it was as if I had transported to Mexico, the music, the goods, everything was just as if I had stepped south of the border. I had bought tamales at Costco and one of my sons friends came over, his family is first generation Mexican. He felt sorry for me after I served him a Costco tamale so his mother made me a bag full of homemade tamales. Wow, no comparison. I did find what I needed and at an affordable price, but they also have a full butcher shop, produce section, frozen and dry goods sections. The butcher shop has pre-marinated, chopped meat for taco's al pastor among other fresh items. I bought some of that too, just toss it in the frying pan to cook it up and serve with corn tortillas and fixings and your friends think you are an awesome Mexican chef. However, they also opened a taqueria, the pictures on the menu are attached. Ordering can present a language barrier, but you can work it out. The portions are generous, the food is authentic beyond comparison anywhere else I have found in Greenville. There are only a few tables. You order in the back of the restaurant, eat, and then you just pay at the front counter of the grocery store as you leave. I had the Tacos Al Pastor and this was a serving of 4 tacos fresh made from the griddle, as in cooked to order. Excellent! This is a really fun and fascinating place to just visit and browse for ideas on something to cook at home. I like to bring the family because it is free to shop and it feels like you have stepped into a time/space portal and gone from Greenville to Tijuana or something like that.

What you're…read moregonna do is walk to the back... then hang a left like you're entering a side quest in a video game. Hidden back there is one of the most authentic Mexican spots I've found in the Greenville area. Nobody spoke English, but honestly, that just made me trust the food more. Google Translate clocked in for its shift and we navigated ordering from the menu just fine. Order Plate #2 (The Costilla de Puerco en salsa verde) was ridiculously good; super flavorful with just the right amount of heat. The asada tacos were also solid, and 4 for $13 in this economy feels like finding buried treasure. Don't sleep on the Horchata; finally a place that sells horchata that's not watered down! 10/10 would absolutely get lost in the grocery store again.
