The Brussel tacos $5 are great, enjoyed chicken enchiladas $15 and corn battered bites- chorizo hush puppies $5.

Upstairs has windows that overlook the street. Good place for groups & families. Brighton can get expensive for meals, so we appreciated the "tapas" small bites, fun to share. Our meal for 3 was $75 including 3 drinks and we all enjoyed it. A favorite place of our local friends

The service is what really sucked unfortunately, waiter was busy which I understand. But he took our orders, got mine wrong (asked for enchiladas and got the saddest looking quesadillas instead) then disappeared for 30 min and had to hunt him down to get water refills, more chips and salsa, and the bill. It was decent enough I'd go back and give them another shot, but was not overly impressed on the first trip.

Let me explain. The place is conveniently located downtown Charlotte with plenty of parking. If there's no street side parking out front, there's a big lot out back too. It's a good size restaurant with lots of seating inside, but there's also an outdoor patio if that's your thing. The menu has just about anything you would typically want from a sit down Mexican restaurant, and a sizable drink menu also. The place is relatively clean and the restrooms are usually kept up. I've never had a meal or bad service. Sounds like everything you'd want in a restaurant. But honestly, that's how things are supposed to be. I expect the place to be clean. I expect the staff to be polite. I expect the food be good. These are all standard things. A 3 star review is just that, standard. Anything higher would be above and beyond. I just don't think this place or the food is above and beyond. There's a couple other Mexican restaurants nearby, so I'd figure they'd step their game up a notch. Unfortunately I don't see it. I'll eat here again, because I like it. They are in fact better than the other places. But the other places lessor reviews don't automatically add stars to this one. Do average, get average.

Not me... the Fajitas were scrimpy & mostly Veggies. We go to ACAPULCO & always get really great food & their Fajitas are full of whatever meat you choose garnished with grilled veggies - not filled either them ... I do think that maybe the Pablo Management needs to visit them or eat there & view their Menu & taste their food. Old Town wasn't any better there at Pablo's as the food wasn't good & again runny unappetizing beans.

This is a bit off the beaten path for people visiting Lansing…read more The restaurant is small but staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Food is very authentic. We ordered the Chilaquiles Verde, Chile Rellenos, Cheese Quesadillas with side of guacamole, and American Tacos. For drinks we had the Limonada. The result: 1) Chilaquiles-we're awesome. The Verde sauce with the beans really made the dish. 2) Chile Rellenos - was very good. It was surprising that there were carrots in the stuffing with the meat. The combination was good. 3) Quesadilla- can't go wrong but the side of guacamole was fresh and very tasty. 4) American tacos - is at the top of my child's list of tacos from restaurants and my child is very picky. 5) Limonada - home made fresh lime juice blended with ice drink; very refreshing and one of the best I have had. Overall this is a place that I will come back to again!
