    My dad loves this place and invited me to try it out. There was a ton of parking spaces surrounding the building. The inside was clean and nice. They had such a big menu! You can try a wide variety of things here. I went with a torta with yuca fries to go. The food is fairly priced, especially considering how much you get. For example, a torta can easily be split between 3 people. I think it was a bit too dense for a dinner but I was happy to have leftovers. Whether alone or in a group, if you want to try news things and flavors, give the Meras Tortas a try!

    Sadly no more Taco Thursday deal and there is an up charge on the tacos now. Besides that, these tacos were as authentic as they can get. Flavorful and delicious! Packed with plenty of proteins and cilantro, as well as limes and radishes for the toppings. Just 4 tacos got me full. Ask for the salsa verde! The horchata is worth a try if you're craving a sweet, cold drink, but I wouldn't get it again. It was too cinammoney, if that's even a thing.

    Chicken tacos?

    If I can give zero stars I would but since I can't I'll just say it. 0 stars!!! I've been here the past two days because I usually have gone to the different location and it was yummy and everyone was so sweet... this location? Where can I start ? The cashier was nice the first day but my boyfriend's food the first day came out with a weird shell and a leaf ... in chicken tacos .. but he didn't have it until the next day while I was at work and waited until I was home to tell me about it. So me thinking it came out good when I got off work I came again to try it myself and it was dry, nasty and lacked flavor. I threw the rest away. The cashier this day really was lucky I was exhausted from work because she and her other staff gave off the worst customer service. DONT come here if you want authentic food and genuine customer service. I hope they see this too and remember who I was :)! And see if this review is as funny as their nasty attitudes and nasty food!

    Só. Freaking. Good. I had been craving Mexican food and I decided to check this place out. It has a wide variety of food to choose from. They have a lot of meats but no seafood. No fish. No shrimp. I'm not big on that but my friend who was with me doesn't eat meat and that's how we learned of the no seafood. I ordered the Tijuana torta. My bf got a torta with bacon on it. It looked divine. My friend opted for sopas, elotes, and a side of fried plantain. She also got a back of burger flavored Takis. They tasted just like a burger. You can taste the layers of the burger which was awesome.,They forgot the plantain so we had to go back to pick it up. They made a new hot batch as well. The staff is super friendly as well. The food was nice and hot. The fries were delicious! The tortas are the size of my face. I gotta big head so it's huge. I'm currently fasting so I devoured the whole thing. Otherwise, I may have saved 1/2 for today. I highly recommend this place and I will be back for sure. They also have a bakery section and tons of drinks to choose from. You want Mangonadas? They got em for you. I've attached pictures so you can see all that they have to offer.

    Great no-frills Mexican food. I had a good feeling once I walked in and saw a crowd in the dining area. The store has a large overhead menu right above the register. The temperature inside the store was a bit high for my liking, luckily the weather was great so we sat outside. We order the Jarocha torta, elote loco, and 3 tacos - lengua (tongue), rajas and carnitas. The torta, an overstuffed sandwich, was just that and could easily be shared between two. You can not go wrong with any of the tacos and the elote, Mexican corn, was amazing! I am looking forward to trying more of their menu from sopes, flautas, and their vast selection of desserts/pastries. Without a question, this is a place to visit to get some authentic Mexican food.

    Want authentic Mexican tacos? GO HERE!! Ya'll I'm Mexican so trust when I say they are authentic!! sooooooo good. Its a little hole in the wall but those are always the best. I order the carne asada, pollo, al pastor, and chorizo tacos. They were all good but my top 2 were carne asada and al pastor ! Tacos are $1.99 and they also have other things like tortas and flautas that i have yet to try.

    Steak tacos
    Rubi S.

    So far best tacos I've had in Charlotte until right now. I always order steak tacos and each tacos are $1.99 no matter wether you want steak, chicken, spicy pork, or carnitas. This place don't look that good from outside tho but don't underestimate their food because it's so yummm. They serve authentic Mexican food here and u won't be disappointed if anyone want to try. But unfortunately, am giving 4 stars because they are under employees so they take order slow other than that it's all good.

    I ordered their super CHICKEN flautas. They have me some type of meat, that i didn't want to know what meat that was but it was NOT chicken i spent hrs throwing up after i tasted a bit of the flauta. It was very sad after i called to complaint the register lady was like "ok" and nothing after so i ended the call.

    Food here is fresh with great portions as well. It's a true hole in wall but so worth the drive from where I live. I get their specialty- TORTAS. My go-to is the Hawaiian torta, my husband tried the Chilanga was good but a little heavy with the meats it had, definitely tried the barbacoa quesadilla. All the tortas come with French fries.

    Chicken street tacos.

    Found the restaurant thru a Mexican restaurant search and went based off of the reviews. The tacos, as people said, are excellent. Can't wait to go back and try the tortas.

    A little place hidden away. The lady taking orders was very busy. She didnt have a lot of help and people dont stop coming in. The tamales are made with the banana leaf not the corn. My kids enjoyed. Tortas are huge!

    Esteban V.

    Man this place is LEGIT! These Tortas are the main attraction and they live up to their name. They are packed with flavor and overly stuffed with meats and toppings. I ordered La Mera Tijuana that is packed with chorizo, steak, cheese, jalapeños, lettuce and tomatoes. Let's not forget the side of fries and fresh Jamaica juice to round out the order. On the inside of the restaurant you will find fresh baked breads and pastries too if you have any room left in your stomach. This is truly a hidden gem and this restaurant needs to be on the map.

On a recent visit, my wife and I started with a bowl of chips and queso, accompanied by a pair of oversized house margaritas.

Service was outstanding throughout our meal, the prices were reasonable, and the ambiance superb. Well worth a visit if you're looking for solid Mexican food and margaritas in Charlotte.

Tacos El Nevado came highly recommended, so I headed over for lunch with high hopes. The restaurant was packed when I arrived around 1:30 p.m., which is usually a good sign. It appears to be a converted fast-food building with its own parking lot, outdoor patio, and a casual, family-friendly atmosphere. Despite the Charlotte heat pushing triple digits, the dining room was comfortable and bustling. Service was friendly from the start, and I was quickly seated with ice water, lemon, fresh chips, and three house-made salsas. The chips were excellent--fresh, crisp, and clearly made in-house. The standout salsa for me was the red salsa, which packed plenty of heat and flavor. There was also a tomatillo salsa and a creamy green avocado-style salsa. Both were good, although the tomatillo leaned a little too tart for my taste. The menu is extensive, with everything from seafood dishes and quesadillas to tacos and larger combination plates. As someone who loves sampling a little of everything, I was hoping for more traditional combo options, but this menu takes a different approach. I ordered the crispy taco plate with rice and beans. The presentation was attractive, with the tacos served upright in a metal rack alongside refried beans and Mexican rice. The rice and beans were both delicious and easily the highlight of the plate. Where things got mixed for me was the taco filling. I was expecting a straightforward seasoned ground beef taco, but the beef filling tasted more like a guisado-style preparation with a softer texture and a slightly tangy flavor profile. It may simply be a regional style or a misunderstanding when ordering, but it wasn't what I had anticipated. The chicken taco, however, was excellent. Tender, flavorful, and clearly made with higher-quality chicken than you typically find in a crispy taco. After trying it, I immediately wished I had ordered all chicken. While this visit didn't completely win me over, I don't think it's fair to judge a restaurant by one dish. The packed dining room, friendly service, fresh chips, excellent salsas, and strong chicken taco all suggest there's more to explore here. Next time, I'd skip the crispy beef tacos and dive into the street tacos or some of the house specialties that seem to be what many regulars were ordering. Tacos El Nevado didn't become my favorite Mexican restaurant in Charlotte on this visit, but it earned a second chance. Life is too short not to eat well, Charlotte. Keep exploring. Sometimes the next great meal is just one menu item away.

Also, the sides for the burrito are listed in Spanish so I have a hard time figuring out which one is the refried beans or not and this time instead of receiving what I thought was refried beans I was just given some plain pinto beans. I really wish that their delivery menu set up was easier for a customer to order and modify, especially if they have options of meat with no clear button to click on and they're just making assumptions in the kitchen.

    I fell in love with Superica when I first moved to Charlotte nearly three years ago, and it quickly…read morebecame one of my go-to spots for reliable, flavorful Tex-Mex. But I have to start with a small heartbreak: my beloved puffy taco is gone. I grew up in San Antonio, Texas, where the puffy taco was created, and it's deeply nostalgic for me. It's not a sope, not a tostada--it's a true puffy taco, light, airy, and unlike anything else. For a long time, Superica made one that came remarkably close to what I grew up with. Unfortunately, after changes in leadership and kitchen management, it quietly disappeared from the menu. That was a real disappointment. That said, I still come back--because the food here is consistently good. The crispy tacos with picadillo are my current favorite. Picadillo (P-I-C-A-D-I-L-L-O) is a traditional Latin dish with many regional variations, and this version reminds me of the one my grandmother used to make in San Antonio. The portions are generous, the flavors are balanced, and the menu offers something for everyone--from enchiladas and chile rellenos to steaks and fresh tableside guacamole. Speaking of guacamole, I'm a purist. I like it simple: avocado, jalapeño, cilantro, lime, garlic--chunky and clean. Superica delivers on that. The chips and salsa are bottomless, the salsa has great depth of flavor, and for those who like heat, they offer a tiny dropper of hot sauce that is smoky, bold, and absolutely not for the faint of heart. The ginger margarita is another standout. It comes with a generous piece of crystallized ginger and has a bright, balanced flavor that makes it easy to order a second one. And if you have room for dessert, do not skip the tres leches cake--rich, decadent, and a perfect way to end the meal. I also appreciate the little touches here: * Friendly, knowledgeable waitstaff * A lively bar area that's great for happy hour * A beautiful outdoor patio that makes al fresco dining feel special * And a fun tradition of sending you home with a packaged Texas praline This South End location is my personal favorite. It feels more adult and relaxed, while the Strawberry Hill location tends to be more family-heavy. Both are good, but the vibe here suits me better. Yes, prices have crept up a bit--as they have everywhere--but the quality, consistency, and atmosphere keep me coming back. And as someone who travels frequently for work across multiple states, I appreciate that Superica maintains a dependable standard wherever I encounter it. Bottom line: Even without the puffy taco, Superica remains one of my favorite Tex-Mex spots in Charlotte. Come hungry, bring friends, share plates--and as always, travel safe and eat well.
