My food was cleared while I was in the restroom, yet my beer was left behind, which felt odd. Someone also kept checking in every few minutes to ask if I wanted to order. I told them I'd flag down Rodriguez, the bartender, when I was ready, but they kept coming back anyway. That constant hovering took away the downtime I came for, and it's the only reason this is a 3 instead of higher. I hope they work out the kinks, because the place has potential.

Our margaritas were large and tasty and the food was just fabulous. The fresh chips and salsa were great start and we shared a fajita quesadilla with rice and beans that two of us couldn't finish! All the veggies were fresh, chicken well seasoned and beans were flavorful. Only dinged a star because we wanted more spicy - salsa nor food was spicy, but flavor made up for that!

Decided on the Burrito-Birria with fries. The food arrived via robot ( ice touch) and looked delicious. The Burrito was very good. The flavor was fantastic. I had to knife and fork it because it was so full of Birria that it fell apart. Not a bad problem. The only complaint was the fries. They were hot but soggy. A really good visit and can't wait to come back.

I was solo so It's nice to have something watch besides your phone. The beer was cold, I had a draft, excellent pour. And the 3 sauces I got with chips were the best I've had in Charlotte. The salsa, delicious, the hot salsa, fire, delicious fire. And the tomatillos sauce, the best I've ever had. Servers wear elbow length oven mitts when they bring plates, cautioned me while putting it down. I'm used to that with fajitas but I had enchiladas and almost everything that I saw served while there came out hot. Impressive. My food was top notch and the portions large. My server checked on me quite often and brought anything I asked for immediately. One of the managers was circulating too, speaking to every table. Again, impressive. Great food, excellent server, very inexpensive for Ballantyne. I don't think you'll find better for less anywhere in Charlotte. I will be eating there again.

We were greeted quickly by a friendly server who got us drinks right away. We weren't ready to order and he did not rush us. He asked us to move our table number to the front of the table so he would know we were ready. I liked that touch! We went very traditional for breakfast. I opted for the French toast combo with bacon and hash browns. My friend opted for the spinach and feta omelet. Both arrived quickly and were fresh and hot. My food was tasty, the bacon was crispy as ordered and the hash browns were nicely shredded and not too greasy. The only thing that was a bit off was my friend asked for her omelet to be well done and she had to send it back for a recook. There was no problem with that and it was back quickly and definitely cooked much more to her liking. Overall I liked the place for a no frills but well cooked meal. The server was pleasant and we never had to ask for refills. Definitely recommend if you are in the area and looking for a nice, affordable meal.

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.

Back again. Wife likes their stuff and I would prefer other places…read more We ordered margaritas, as they offer small, large and pitcher. We went with small ($6.99) and they were A LOT OF ICE and not much liquid. We ordered another small and finally ordered a large ($10.99) with more liquid, but still A LOT OF ICE. Consider beer next time. Our guacamole dip ($6.99) was good with their chips. I do like that they offer Toreados ($3.99), which are three grilled jalapeno peppers and some grilled onions. I asked for well-done peppers and they were not. If they are grilled or fried, they are soft and less hot. A great accompaniment to your meals...if well cooked. Wife had a wonderful beef and cheese quesadilla especial ($16.99) and I had a taste and agreed with her assessment. She brought half of this order home. If I come back this is what I would order and recommend to others. I asked with three cheese enchiladas ($7.99) with onions cooked inside them, covered with salsa verde (green sauce) rather that the tired old red sauce which is like the dip served with chips. I got what I ordered which came without rice &/or beans. However, I had to send them back to be heated. The cheese had not melted well. I did not like this order. Their service is great. Attentive and active, with our waitress, Evelyn, being in constant motion. She could be called speedy. She did a super job.

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.

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!
