    Had the caldo de res... And it was delicious... The soup was so large I had to take some home which is fine by me because it can be lunch next day.

    El Fogon (previously called Mi Pequeño Hidalgo) is a truly authentic and fantastic Mexican…read morerestaurant found on Dorchester Road near the Charleston Airport. It's a bit of a drive to get there from downtown or Mt Pleasant but oh my god, it is entirely worth it. There was just one person running the entire front of the restaurant, waiting every table, bringing out all of the food, and handling the checks. She was fantastic and the service was great. We ordered in Spanish (the best we could) and everything turned out well, but the menu is in both English and Spanish so you could just point to the things you want. I had the enchiladas which were amazing, highly recommend. Also ask for a flavored water (agua fresca), they had pineapple, cucumber and lime, and tamarin. The pineapple water (agua fresca de piña) was so good! This place is a diamond in the rough. It doesn't look like much on the outside but don't judge a book by its cover, it's the best Mexican restaurant in Charleston!

    After trying all Mexican restaurants in and around Charleston, and being honestly disappointed at…read morewhat passes for "Mexican Food" in South Carolina, we found this TERRIFIC place. On our way to the airport one weekend, we saw the sign for what appeared to be a new restaurant in town, the family was hungry and we decided to give it a shot. Not expecting much, we ordered some authentic Mexican dishes: Lamb Barbacoa. Chilaquiles, Enchiladas and Horchata and Cucumber waters.... boy, were we so pleasantly surprised!!!!! FINALLY; delicious, fresh and truly authentic Mexican dishes!! For once everyone, wife, toddlers, teenage son, mother in law and I unanimously agreed, we're so delighted with this place that we have made it our go-to weekend breakfast spot. Service is super friendly, portions are generous, prices are fair. We hope this place keeps the great quality of the food for years to come. Congratulations to the chef, cooks and staff, all of you succeeded in making us feel at home.

We aren't normally in that neck of the…read morewoods and while driving there, I noticed a small bright yellow building and new immediately that we would definitely be stopping there on the way back for some good authentic Mexican! We shopped and shopped and worked up an appetite. We walked into the tiny little restaurant and I immediately went onto my yelp app. The menu is NOT in English and I had no idea what I wanted so I used pictures as some sort of a guideline lol. My husband ordered enchiladas and we agreed, per usual that we would split everything. I ordered huarache and then last minute we decided to do an order of the plantains, (only one not pictures) sorry y'all they were delicious!!! The only flaw I saw was the guy in back, guessing owner, pretty much ran the entire show, which is badass, however I wished he wore gloves!! And then I almost ate both foil and wax paper from scraping the plastic to the bottom, it was worth it. We love finding authentic little places like this, they started with a food struck and now have this little hole in the wall place that packs a powerful punch! Oh and their green hot sauce that came in the soufflé cup was amazing! If not for my son, I would have drenched my food in it! So good! We would definitely come back, but I'd research the menu a little more before coming, so I can figure out what I want beforehand.

    Great for Charleston, but would be lost in other cities…read more Tiny interior with a few tables. Feels like someone home. The buche and cabeza tacos were the best. Unfortunately, no lengua the day I visited. I enjoyed the crisp cucumber chunks in the tacos. I'd come back and try their menudo.

    Pollo Loko - North Charleston, SC…read more The wife and I stopped into Pollo Loko for a quick lunch, not expecting much... and wow, what a surprise this place turned out to be. First off, the customer service was outstanding. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely made us feel appreciated from the moment we walked in. You don't always get that kind of attention these days, so it really stood out. The restaurant itself was spotless, well-kept, and had a great vibe. You can tell they take pride in the place. Now let's talk about the food -- because this is where they really shine. We started with the empanadas, which were absolutely delicious -- fresh, flavorful, and the perfect way to kick things off. For our main, we ordered the Peruvian chicken, served with fries and rice, and it did not disappoint. The chicken was cooked perfectly, packed with flavor, and paired incredibly well with their signature sauces -- seriously, those sauces take everything to another level. Even the salad was fresh and tasty, which says a lot because that's usually an afterthought at most places. On top of that, they've got a great selection of sodas and other drinks, making it a perfect stop for a casual lunch. Bottom line: An unexpected gem with amazing food, top-tier service, and a clean, welcoming atmosphere. **Highly recommend -- 5 stars, 3 thumbs up from us.

This is a fast casual style restaurant and not a real fancy place. My picky colleague who's never had peruvian ordered the ribs. Quesadiladas - you get 2 in an order and these are different than Mexican ones since they have grilled bell peppers and onions. A bit pricy too...the rice and beans that come with this are just average. They only had 2 salsas for the table, a green ranch like one and a red spicy one similar to a spicy Mexican red sauce. I'm still looking for a peruvian restaurant that has the spicy green sauce that most all peruvian restaurants have in California.

    La Hacienda is a Mexican restaurant located in a small strip mall not too far from the airport…read more Parking is plentiful and the ambiance is rather typical. My friend and I arrived here for lunch and were seated right away. Our waitress was a no-nonsense, sassy young lady who I very much appreciated. She made me laugh and gave great recommendations. She commented that the corn tortillas are oddly sweet and not traditionally made so something to keep in mind if you're particular about your corn tortillas. I thought the food was solid. I had ordered three tacos - no sides - with two beef and one barbacoa. I thought it was very reasonably priced, tasty, and quick. We were able to get in and out easily enough and it was a great lunch!

    I found a hair in my food and immediately brought it to the waiter's attention. Rather than…read moreapologizing or trying to make it right, he actually suggested that the hair came from my head. That would be difficult considering I am completely bald and was wearing a hat. It only got worse from there. When the manager came over, her response was a casual, "It happens." No genuine apology. No concern. No accountability. The waiter then doubled down by telling me I would have never found the hair if I had not mixed my food together. Imagine blaming the customer for discovering a contamination issue in their meal. Finding a hair in your food is disgusting. Being insulted and blamed for it is unacceptable. The complete lack of professionalism, accountability, and basic customer service was shocking. If this is how they handle food quality issues, I can only wonder what happens behind the scenes. Save your money and your appetite. I will never return.
