    Lunch shrimp fajitas
    Cindy G.

    The best Mi Cancun we've been to so far! Very friendly and attentive staff, never had to ask for more chips, salsa or water. Salsa had a nice smoky flavor to it and chips came out warm. Shrimp fajitas were fresh and perfect size for lunch. Nice authentic music, very clean restaurant with nice ambiance. Will definitely be back!

    We went to Mi Cancun on a rainy day for lunch. It was excellent!! The inside decor was bright and fun. The staff were very friendly. As soon as our waiter took our drink order, someone came over with a table side guacamole station! They made fresh guacamole in front of us. You could choose to add onions, pico, cilantro and jalapeños! The enchiladas were great and I can't wait to go back.

    Mi Cancun is definitely one of the better inexpensive Mexican options around. They have a great variety of lunch options. Rice, enchiladas, chimichangas, chips, and salsa are all pretty standard, but quite satisfactory. Only con is that the they have music blasting inside. Not a negative, but the chicken soup is quite strange. Definitely recommend though for a fast and inexpensive bite!

    Cheese dip
    Marissa T.

    Mi Cancun is my favorite local Mexican chain and this location is great! Cheese dip is delicious and a generous size. ACP is my favorite. The service was excellent - our waitress was so friendly and the entire staff was very attentive. Our chip basket never got too low and they even packed a bag of chips to go with our leftovers without our asking.

    Spicy Chicken Tacos, Pozole, Black Beans, Guacamole, Veggie Fajitas!!!! Muy Bueno :)

    Excellent Mexican food at MiCancun for a good price. This new location is the best of them all. The food & service are always top notch. The spicy chicken tacos, Pozole & Guacamole live are all super yummy. We always tip the person making our Guacamole as it is always superb.

    Chicken fiesta

    Enjoyed the food very much . Portion was just right. Very satiating. The chicken was non greasy and tender- delicious Fast service Noisy ambience serving ladies were very sweet. On Cinco di mayo we were able to get seated soon even without reservation. Will surely visit again

    Spicey Margarita

    Below-average Average Mexican Food! I had dinner here on a Friday night.  When we walked in, we were promptly greeted and seated, and immediately we were aware of two things:  1)  the amazingly high level of noise, and 2) the sketchy table-side guacamole cart. The ceiling is super high, and the level of noise from the patrons and the 6 TVs combined in the cavernous space to make it hard to talk.  It became quite distracting. As soon as we sat down, a nice non-English speaking woman appeared and offered table-side guac.  We were not in the mood for it, but even if we were, we likely would have passed because the table-side cart looked dirty, disorganized, and not even close to professional.  When I commented on the appearance of the cart, the very nice woman had to get another staff person to translate, which made the interaction difficult and awkward. I had the camarones diablo and a spicy margarita.  The shrimp were just ok, and margarita had, I believe, way too much ice.  As I stated above, this was a below-average Mexican food experience.  I am unlikely to return.

    Friendly, fast, very attentive service. I had the Chicken Fajita Burrito: fresh, delicious and seasoned to epic level. Clean, fun atmosphere with a happy, energetic vibe! We will be back. Thank you Mi Cancun for an exceptional dining experience!

    Esmeralda Grill is a very authentic local Mexican spot that does a lot of things right, especially…read morewhen it comes to classic comfort dishes. I usually rotate between the tacos, enchiladas, and molcajetes, and while the tacos themselves are just okay, the overall experience is solid. The fresh chips are easily some of the best I've had at a Mexican restaurant (warm and crisp). Add queso to those chips and it really seals the deal. They more than make up for the tacos being a bit underwhelming and are honestly reason enough to come back. This is a great neighborhood spot if you're looking for authentic flavors, generous portions, and excellent chips and dips (biggest downside is no liquor aka no margaritas). Not every dish is a knockout, but the highlights keep it comfortably in 4-star territory.

    Esmeralda Grill absolutely rocks, and it was almost a restaurant that I considered avoiding because…read moreI ordered the wrong thing. I was really one mayonnaise filled torta away from missing out on my favorite Mexican restaurant of Cary. The food is some of the freshest and most authentic in the area, and is consistently spot on. Forget heavy burritos or overly sauced enchiladas, this place is the real deal. When you come to Esmeralda Grill, you should really focus on the meat heavy dishes, whether it be via land or sea. There are so many different options to choose from, from both categories. When thinking seafood, expect the full fish. If you find yourself with the fresh grilled tilapia, you will receive a delicious whole fish that tastes as if it was caught that morning. It is such a fantastic option. I also appreciate the camarones a la diabla, or Diablo shrimp. The shrimp are plump and juicy, the spice of the dish is excites your taste buds and is a great dish. My favorite entrees are the land meat dishes though. El Trio Perfecto is my go-to order, it is grilled steak, chicken and pork all on one plate with rice, beans, salad, and tortillas. The Mexican spice rub on the meats is absolutely mouth watering, the flavors are so bold and tasty. The meats are all cooked to perfection and the portions are gigantic. You can make different tacos with the various meats, it is seriously one of my favorite Mexican dishes. I would highly recommend this! Additionally, Esmeralda Grill has so many other wonderful dishes for different flavor profiles. My grandparents are pretty particular about empanadas, but simply cannot get enough of Esmeralda's version. They also make some killer tacos, and some very affordable ones if you were to come on Tuesday! The moral of the story? Don't base your opinion of a restaurant after a single visit. You don't come across a fantastic hole in the wall every day, Esmeralda Grill is one that every Mexican food lover should know!
