The restaurant was also very dimly lit and the booth seating felt cramped. We started with the cheese dip, but it looked more like broccoli cheddar soup than traditional queso, which was already a red flag. We ordered two quesadillas (chicken and spinach, and ground beef). The chicken looked pale and completely unseasoned, and the ground beef resembled sloppy joe (Manwich) meat rather than taco filling. We didn't feel comfortable eating the food, so we left it untouched. We didn't make a scene, we paid our bill, tipped our server, and left. Sadly, this place didn't meet expectations and didn't feel like an authentic Mexican restaurant.

And, potato tacos are made with mashed potatoes, not cut up fried potatoes. I also ordered an enchilada à la carte. The waitress brought me a quesadilla. When I told her no, I ordered an enchilada. She responded by saying, "oh God", but not in a nice way. I asked everyone at the table what I had ordered. They all said an enchilada. No matter, her response was not very nice. It would've been better if she just brought the enchilada and said nothing. She brought me the enchilada, unmelted cheese not warm at all. I'll probably never go back there as I live in California.

My husband & I stopped in here on a Saturday afternoon (around 3:00) in October 2025. We were…read moreseated right away in a booth under a painting of Frida Kahlo (for reference if you've been inside). We were given food menus, but I was surprised that there were no drinks listed on the menu and no separate menu for drinks/drink specials. We ordered house margaritas (assuming this was probably on a menu somewhere) from the hostess, and then started looking over the menu. Our server arrived and after greeting us, she forcefully pushed our table up against the wall behind it, without saying a word. Apparently there was a small gap between the wall and table, which she felt needed to be corrected. It was startling and unnecessary. She didn't even pause, just kept right on doing her job like that was a normal interaction. The margaritas here are made with LOTS of margarita mix and presumably some tequila. After tasting mine and noticing an abundance of mix, my husband asked if I could get a shot of tequila to go in mine. Instead of bringing a shot to the table, the server took my glass away and then returned with it, looking and tasting like she had simply poured some water into the top of the glass. It was so odd. I was not expecting her to take my glass, so I have no idea what she actually put in it, but it didn't taste any better, just more watery. I ordered the Guacamole Azteca (which was described as avocado chunks with pico de gallo). The server brought it to the table before bringing my husband's order, and she roughly placed it right in front of me, even though it is an appetizer. I pushed it to the center of the table so we could share. It looked like it had been made at least a day ahead. The tomatoes were mushy and had a dry appearance, while the cilantro was wilted and soggy. It was pretty clear this was NOT fresh, looking at the gray colored liquid floating in the dish. It seemed like a mix they would use for ceviche or shrimp cocktail that's sitting around waiting for one of those dishes. My husband ordered 3 asada street tacos and a side of rice. The tacos were bland, other than the flavors of onion & cilantro (not the beef or spice). The rice honestly looked like it was boil in the bag, with only a faint orangish color & flavorless. Have you ever been at a restaurant and felt like you were an inconvenience? Yeah. If you enjoy that feeling, go to Garcia's; if you prefer a place with a welcoming atmosphere, go somewhere else. There are plenty of other great choices around Fountain Inn. We will no be returning to Garcia's. Sorry for the lack of photos; nothing we received was photo-worthy.

"Man is it dark in here." I had to wipe crumbs off of my booth seat. It was frigid. Not starting well. But chips and salsa and water were quickly delivered. It took a slight bit before our order was taken, at least enough for me to eat my full, individual, mild salsa dish and request the hot salsa. Chips were also quickly refilled when they got lower. I had the lunch chicken taquitos with lettuce, guacamole, sour cream, salsa verde and three taquitos. They were crisp, the chicken was tender and flavorful. My friend had a small taco salad, which he ate in its entirety. The lunch crowd rolled in and it was a decent crowd, indicating popularity and what seemed like regulars. That's always a good sign. Even better, the bill arrived and together it was $22 and some change. With tip, still well under $30 and that's pretty good value. It's not a stand-out, must visit, Mexican restaurant, but it's good. I wouldn't make a special destination trip here, but in the general area, this is a solid choice.
