Foods and drinks are pretty good. Drinks are poured excellent, only thing is the service is very slow even on nights they're not very busy. Ambiance is GREAT the restaurant is beautiful and the bar is set up very nice. read more

Mucho Bueno Mexican Street Food & Tequila - Strawberry Margarita - Mexican Near Me - Havelock, North Carolina

Vibe and décor are great, and the service was solid too. There's a lot to choose from on the menu, maybe a bit too much--sometimes less is more. I had three tacos on corn: one steak and two al pastor with cilantro and onions. The meat was pretty dry, though it did have good flavor. I'm from Chicago where tacos tend to be a lot juicier. I also tried the carne asada with green chile. It wasn't fried--just heated with green salsa poured over it. Decent flavor, but nothing mind-blowing. The place kind of reminds me of On the Border, but with a more Mexican feel. It's sorta authentic, but definitely leaning toward fast food vibes. That said, their salsa bar is awesome and definitely a highlight. If I were back home, I'd give it a 3-star rating. But considering the area doesn't have a ton of Mexican options, I'll bump it up to 4 stars. read more

Great food, service, and atmosphere. Great chips. I had the street tacos. Yum. Friendly service, food arrived quickly despite a full house. My wife got some nice taco salad that was packed with more steak than she could eat. Plenty tasty. read more

This was our third or forth visit, I didn't think the food was as good as in the past. Salsa was bland, the new salsa bar was OK but nothing really jumped out as really good. I had a combo, chicken enchilada, I did nor like the sauce, beef burrito was good, pork tamale was very dry and lacked flavor. It came with standard rice and beans. We've had great food there in the past and the others in our party were satisfied with the food. The service was great and the atmosphere was very mexican, kid friendly. Don't rule it out, maybe my taste was off that night..as I said everyone else enjoyed it. read more

There seafood dip is beyond DELICIOUS Employees are friendly. Very clean. There is a pineapple entry that I would highly recommend. read more

Food was bland. My wife don't even get to take a bite before she found hair in the refried beans. The street corn was somehow bland even though it was covered in seasoning. Walked in the place and it looked like the yellow filter that movies use for Mexico. Somehow the place didn't smell like food was cooking when we walked in. This is a subliminal space that only NPCs could enjoy. Never come here. 0 stars if I could. Lowkey made a yelp to leave this review. read more

The food is hands down the best Mexican food I've had in awhile. Our server was great and very respectful. The atmosphere was very welcoming and I love that they had sports on! 10/10 recommendation go try it out. read more

Excellent service and food. Was looking for a place like this and they did not disappoint

Great food. Love their salsa. The best wait staff in the area. Prices make it even better

Their street tacos were very dry and disappointing, and their jamaica was very sour for some reason.

I was disappointed by all three:Food, service and ambiance. I had questions about the food I ordered. I believed there had been a mistake. I never saw my waitress again and no one else seemed to care. I think they do a group type servicing but in this instance it did not work! Food was average read more

Service: NOT welcoming. No greeting at entrance. No eye contact. Everyone busy one wrapping forks and spoons. Waiter that we had was great. You can tell he was trying. He was very positive. Seemed like he was trying his best despite his surrounding gloom. Ambience: they could use a good scrubbing down of utensils and tables and chairs. Food: we got the "fresh" seafood dish. My goodness. It was imitation crab meat, scallops the size of peas, and some white fish which I'm assuming is frozen tilapia. There was NOTHING fresh about the seafood dish. We also ordered nacho tacos. I think even the cashier is confused about the extensive menu we were not charged the lunch special nor were we given the sides that come with it. The nacho dish sucked. Big time. The cheese kind glued together nothing was good on it. The chicken on it tasted frozen and reheated. I was very sick after eating here. Definitely a mucho hell no Bueno from me. read more

What went well? Everything! The employees who work there are really friendly and the food is always great.

Food was not what I'd consider Mexican but it did look good. Not saying it wasn't good it just wasn't what I'd eat. Friendly staff!

Food was fantastic! Service was nice and friendly. The restaurant is clean and inviting.

Excellent food, service is impeccable, full bar, and delivery. Street corn is hard to find, so I was overjoyed and walked a mile each way to get it. Excellent seafood too. read more

Update: Came here (not out of my own free will) and was genuinely surprised about how much better my experience was the second time around. I got the carne asada street tacos, and the meat was much more flavorful & tender than when I had tried the carne asada before. While I did have an improved experience, that doesn't mean that I would necessarily recommend this place. This place is okay, but still not mucho bueno. Hence, my upgrade from 2 to 3 stars in this update. That being said, these small towns don't offer much variety. Beggars can't be choosers, so don't blame me if you see me here a third time. read more

Mucho Bueno Mexican Street Food & Tequila - Street Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Havelock, North Carolina

Not at all what people crack it up to be. The service was ok, the food wasn't the best I've had.

Best Restaurant we've found since moving here last year. We probably frequent at least once a month.

Staff was some of the best encountered anywhere. We were greeted when we entered, warm chips and salsa were at our table as soon as we sat down, beverages and food were delivered quickly, server checked on us and we were thanked when we left. I forgot to ask what kind of cheese they used on the relleno and when I told server it was not my preference, he immediately brought me the one I wanted with apologies from chef who thought he had done something wrong, which he hadn't. Food was good, portions were full of meat and we had plenty left to take home. Sunday drink specials were $5 Mimosa and Michelada. You even get to choose the beer in the huge Michelada. read more

If I could give this place negative stars I would. We had a 35 minute wait and after an hour, she said there were 8 more parties ahead of us. There were people sitting at the bar for an hour without the bartenders even asking for a drink order. Another couple at the bar was there for 2 hours and never got their meal that they ordered when they got there. There were only 2 servers, and no one looked like they knew what they were doing. It's Cinco de Mayo, and you're a Mexican restaurant, get your shit together. read more

They seem nice and efficient; the folks drinking are having fun. The food is not very good. read more

The food was great for myself however, me and my wife got street corn one on the cob and one in a bowl, the cob was phenomenal and the bowl was very much the opposite, it's as though the bowl and cob have completely different ingredients. This could have just been a miscomprehension from our part but overall everything else was astounding, the server was amazing, the atmosphere was quite cozy. Overall a great place to eat! read more

Mucho Bueno is alot of fun and one of our local go-tos for work lunches aa well as family take out. It is their management and the way they treat customers that draws me back. Always so happy and polite. Of course I love their street tacos, house guacamole, corn and gorditas! ...to name a few. read more

My first time here and already I'm loving this place. I was planning a second visit before leaving. My group and I enjoyed this restaurant they have a few things I haven't seen in a while EX: gorditas one of my childhood favorites I preferred a less doey casing by it was still delicious, now the drinks are fairly priced for the quality and quantity I had my self the jalapeño margarita and it was absolutely fire, due to circumstances I couldn't have more than one but I will absolutely return for the bar. They also have a lot of chorizo mixed dishes which I loved. The staff is quick and friendly. Speak English and Spanish so you'll definitely get what ever you wanted I highly recommend this new restaurant. STAY HUNGRY. read more
