Pickings are slim in this rural town in Snow Hill if you want a sit-down restaurant option. To hear some locals tell it, this may truly be one of the better options in town. Good news if you are visiting the county courthouse: this is a very convenient location because it is directly across the street. Service was great. Our server was very attentive and our food came out without much of a wait. There is a bar. Dress is casual. My taco salad was okay (I should have skipped the grilled chicken and stuck with shredded chicken. Also, I removed the beans which was my own mistake because there wasn't much substance left to the salad other than shredded lettuce, cheese, sour cream, chicken and a small, half slice of tomato). read more

This was a very pleasant surprise. We weren't expecting much but left highly impressed. Very nice restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. We were promptly seated. Terrific service. We both had excellent taco dishes. If we're in the area, we will certainly be back. read more

Great amazing food. Always hits the spot when we do an outing there. If you out and about give them a try.

First things first, I travel to Snow Hill quite often for work. This being my 4th trip with many more to come, I'm very glad that my coworkers have recommended La Flama Mexican Restaurant to me. This restaurant has become one of my favorite places to go for lunch whether by myself or with coworkers. La Flama Mexican Restaurant is among one of the best Mexican restaurants in there area. I ordered the Pollo Feliz - sautéed chicken strips, with fresh spinach and onions topped with cheese sauce over a hot skillet. First you smell it then you hear your meal coming to you. It is served with rice, refried beans, salad and two flour tortillas and it was delicious! Very flavorful, and was delivered to the table at a reasonable time. It did not take long at all. I love it when I can still hear my food simmering on the handheld skillet. GREAT FOOD, GREAT ATMOSPHERE. There is no doubt that I will be coming back here, especially on day I "forget" my lunch at home. :) read more

I been here a couple times. Usually, I get their tacos. Everything else is kind a high. But, I don't have much of a choice because it is the only Mexican restaurant in this small town. Menu items ordered: Tacos were great but, not the best I ever had. The best I ever had belongs to a restaurant in Mississippi. However, this is North Carolina. Maybe it has something to do with that. Is there a difference between Mississippi Mexican Food and North Carolina Mexican Food? I guess we will never know. It's located down town. They do not serve drinks. That is no alcohol. Not even a margarita read more

Great food and service. It's our choice for a night out with just the two of us, but also a great place to take the kids.

Not a bad restaurant for being in a dry town(no alcohol)! Free chips and salsa- chips were warm and the salsa tasted fresh. I ordered the taquitos and they were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The white cheese dip was very good! Beans and rice were ok. The cheesecake burrito was the star of the show and I highly recommend it! I was full and only intended on having a bite of dessert to try it, but I found myself going back for a few more bites because it was so good! I also tried a bite of the brownie sundae which was pretty tasty as well. The service was great and I would definitely stop by again. read more

I really didn't like the food, is like any other food with no real Mexican seasoning, and flavors. Place is nice. But I wouldn't go back.

La Flama used to be a place we went out of our way to go to when we wanted a good Mexican dinner. Today we stopped in for lunch and saw they had a new menu. Prices were higher and none of the meals we would order before were on the menu, however we could still order them off menu. The rice was under cooked and bland. The refried beans were really lumpy. The enchiladas were hard and missing filling in a lot of areas, which leaves little filling since they aren't that big. The chimichangas were big and fat, and completely bland. The sour cream on the side was good! I'm sure there will be some who like the new menu and the new food. My wife and I liked the old Tex-Mex food they served, not this Americanized east coast "Mexican" food. Sadly, we will be removing La Flama from our GPS. read more

In town for the band competition and decided to give it a try. Service was great, food was delicious and the tea was ice cold, what more could we want. read more

Given the limited options in Snow Hill, La Flama is certainly one of the better choices. Their taco salads are yummy, but can be a little soupy at times. And watch out for the salsa - sometimes they don't thaw it out enough before they open and you'll get some chunks of ice to go with your chunks of tomato. Overall - it's better than the fast food options, it's located right across from the courthouse and the service is fast. read more

As soon as you are seated you get welcomed with a basket of freshly made chips and salsa made daily. Timely service and excellent customer service. Waiters know their dishes and what they can do to make your experience unforgettable. Highly recommend cheese dip and Texas fajitas. read more

I enjoy La Flama's a great deal. It's very good Mexican food. The service has always been good. I would recommend this place to everybody.

Fajitas, chimichangas, & tacos, oh my! You can't go wrong with anything you want to try. They'll personalize it better than Burger King if you require, and "the steaks are off the chain!" (per my husband) read more

The food is good can't complain about that however, the waiters they hire are horrible! Don't waste your time you will not get a refill because they will disappear. They don't even bother to check on how the food was; like usual restaurant do. Couldn't order any desserts because the lack and laziness of our waiter! They need to consider hiring more professional people that actually want to work and earn a tip. Won't be back this was not the first nor second time this happened. read more

Loved the food, I ordered the steak fajitas and it was one of the best I have had in a long time. Very fast service. I did notice that the staff was trying to make sure everyone was satisfied with their meals. maybe the issues they have had in the past, have been dealt with. I know we enjoyed our meal and will be back! read more

This was my favorite Mexican restaurant, the food was always great and probably still is but the service has finally wore our patience down after many visits of slow service were done, it doesn't do any good to complain they just smile and say sorry. I like the owner and like that he's trying to bring business to our small town but the service isn't worth the trip to town. Tried the new pizza place he opened up and the service was horrible, half the meals came out without their sides and one travelled around the room until they finally brought it to our table and asked if it was ours. Several people who came in after us actually got their pizzas before ours came out. We told the server about the service issue and she just smiled and took our money. Hate it but we won't be eating at either of these until I know the service has improved. read more

This restaurant is delicious! I recommend to come here 100% (: you won't be disappointed. The tacos borrachos are my favorite!

Our favorite Mexican restaurant around! Amazing food and prices. Service is hit or miss but we still think it's worth it!

The lunch chicken fajitas burritos are very good. It took a while to get seated, but the food made up for it. Nice atmosphere.

This place has the best Mexican food I've ever had. Everything is great but you have to try the Cheesecake Burrito. Margarita and Wendy are the hardest working waitresses I've ever seen. The last time we went the place was packed and they had had 3 parties that night. They were swamped. Margarita and Wendy were actually running at times. Can't say enough about these young ladies! read more

Typical low rent Mexican joint. Evidently they had a liquor license once but no more as they do not have mixed drinks as they once did. Went in on a Friday night around 7:30pm and there were seven or eight couples seated and eating. We waited to be seated and saw several waiters working tables ect. Finally we made our way to an empty table only to be intercepted by one of the waiters saying someone would be with us shortly. So, we returned to the entrance and after five minutes the waiter came over and grabbed some menus and asked how many? Duh. We were seated and were given chips and salsa. They were good, but then we were hungry. After waiting 10 min, I flagged a waiter and was told someone would be with us. Finally the waiter came back and took our order. The food came right away but no one EVER came back to check on us. We ate and tried to flag down one of the waiters who were obviously ignoring us. We got up and went and stood by the cash register. A man who I had not seen before came right out, from the back, and asked if everything was alright? Told him food was good but service sucked! He just looked at me as he shoved the CC receipt to me and not another word was spoken. Food was good but I'm not paying to subsidize rudeness. Won't be back. read more

La Flama is most certainly in the top three places to eat in Snow Hill. The food is very, very yummy, and the staff is kind and helpful. Just know that you don't want to go here if you're trying to eat cheap. Their prices are a little high, in my opinion, and they raised them even higher a little while back. But like I said, the food is good, so if you've got a little extra money and you've got to eat in Snow Hill, I would suggest La Flama. read more

What can I say, best food around. Owner best person you could ever meet, made snow hill a better place. Wait staff horrible !!!!! Can't remember what you need or when you need it, very poor service. 3 bad experiences in a row. Sorry I can't go back until wait staff are replaced. Again love owner and what he's done for my town, also don't know the chef but excellent job !!!. Hope problems with wait staff can be fixed soon so I can come back soon. read more

The food is good, but the salsa has to be the worst I ever had at a Mexican restaurant.

This restaurant has the best Mexican food in eastern North Carolina. Wonderful staff. Love to eat there.

The service is great and the food is so good! So happy to have a good Mexican place close to my office at Krystal's House!!

La Flama is a fantastic place to stop in and eat at anytime of the day. If you like traditional and some Americanized-Mexican cuisine, you can eat here without issue. The speciality dishes are prepared well, and you won't find a restaurant that will allow to customize your meal as easily as La Flama does. Their combo lunch/dinner menu is an easy pleaser for the whole family, even if you have a vegetarian in the family. As with most Mexican restaurants, the complimentary chips and salsa is on par with most expectations, may I recommend the Hot Queso Dip, as well as the salsa having just enough of a 'Kick' to it. Their chicken is moist and tender, the steak is tough if you go much above Medium, the beef is seasoned well and pleasing for most palates, and the sauces offered are a complimentary bonus to your dish. The desserts and "treats" offered are tasty and well made, yet a bit pricy (but aren't all desserts overpriced?) still good to split with friends and family. All and all La Flama is an excellent establishment, and with the few dozen times I've eaten there recently, neither myself or guests joining me to eat have had any issue what-so-ever read more
