First time visiting Rey Azteca and was pleasantly surprised with the inside ambiance; wall murals, brightly painted dining tables even small rooftop awnings above some of the tables. Outside seating available weather permitting along with decorative blow ups for the little ones to take a picture with . We were warmly welcomed and shown to a table in the back as we were a party of 8. Our server Marisol was fantastic. She was welcoming and very patient (as some of us could not make a decision). Marisol was extremely attentive throughout our visit constantly checking in even though she had several tables to serve. Served complimentary chips and salsa to begin with. The food fare is your typical Mexican cuisine: enchiladas, fajitas, burritos, quesadillas, carne asada, soups etc. we started off with the spicy guacamole which was delicious and lived up to its name. There's even a children's menu available for the less adventurous. The food dishes were all well portioned and reasonably priced. There's a full bar available as well. Overall good food reasonably priced with a friendly and attentive staff. Will definitely revisit when back in the Lake Wylie area. read more

Came here after a softball tournament and the food was delicious! I had been to their other location in Rock Hill before! You can't miss with a burrito plate and a margarita. read more

It took our waitress forever to take our order, bring our food and even give us our bill.. and there was only 6 people in the restaurant at that time. This was the second time I had this issue. The food was sub par, and noticed a huge decline in service. I won't be coming back read more

The food was okay. But not quite what I was expecting. The server was inattentive, much more interested in younger patrons

We love this place! Food is always hot and fresh, whether in the restaurant or takeout or delivery. Highly recommend

Great place, great food, great staff!!! We go there once a month or so, and the quality is consistent every time!

Went here recently with my husband for a childless dinner. We loved the patio and had great service. I love that you can see the lake from here. The server was friendly and anticipated our needs. Both of us live the arroz con pollo. Chicken, rice and veggies coated in a cheese sauce hits the spot every time. My husband loves the complimentary salsa and loves that it tastes so fresh. Chips aren't too salty, but crisp. read more

Decided to try this place with a friend. The food was ok but the waiter was awful.. wouldn't recommend

Pretty good Mexican food. Convenient to get to. We might try it again. Wish they had empanadas. read more

Came during the week and both had chicken fajitas. Food was good and a nice portion size, service was on point. Pitcher of margaritas were not great and not much alcohol in them, so minus one star for that. On national margarita day, mind you. Overall a pretty fine place and would come back. Lots of crying children during the week read more

Rey Azteca - Chicken fajitas - Mexican Near Me - Clover, South Carolina

Decent neighborhood Mexican food. I love the Arroz con pollo, which is grilled chicken, bell peppers, and onion over rice and cheese. Service is anywhere from great to terrible, depending on who you get. We've had more good service than bad, but when it is bad, it is really bad - like you need to ask any random employee to get you a water refill or get you your check. That is the reason for 3 stars. read more

Ordered takeout for a big group - food was prepared quickly and everyone got their food order correct. We will be ordering from them again!

We tried this restaurant for the first time on a Saturday night and we enjoyed it. We split the chicken fajitas for 2 which was a very generous portion and delicious. The staff was friendly and helpful. read more

This is my favorite Mexican in the area! It's always so yummy and most of the time the service is good. The servers are usually very attentive read more

We have been here before and had the best experience. This place always looks amazing. Tonight we brought a friend with us and we ordered queso fundido and it came to the table burnt. It looked nothing like the picture on the menu. When we told the waitress she took it back and we just wanted one not burnt. She came back and told us they don't want to make us another one because we would send it back too. So we asked for just queso plain, it came to the table cold. The service is great but so far the quality of food is questionable. Let's see how the rest of the meal turns out. Let's see if a manager comes by the table since a food item was sent back. Ok so 2 of the 3 meals have arrived. The third one over 2 minutes wait so far. Three minutes now. So I had to get up to find a manager. There is no excuse for this. Well we just found out that someone took our 3rd meal to another table. 10 min since the 1st 2 meals and still no 3rd even after being notified. We will never bring anyone here. Well they comped our meal but still no manager. SMH read more

This spot is definitely one of Lake Wylie's finest. Ever since I moved down to the Lake in 2020, I have continually been frequenting this place because it is SO GOOD! Despite the high quality, I was surprised by how small this establishment was. Rey Azteca is certainly a hidden gem in LKW. read more

The Charlotte area has a plethora of smaller Americanized Mexican restaurants and most of them are pretty similar. Chips and salsa while you look at the menu. The menu is a study of how many different ways you can put chicken or beef inside of a tortilla shell of some sort. Rice and beans on the side. And served with a Mexican beer or a margarita. Most of them are so similar that they could almost be considered a chain. Rey Azteca brings that to the Fort Mill area, where Tryon crosses over Lake Wylie into South Carolina. In a strip mall, they have a couple of signs out front. inside, it's the same as any other "Ameri-Mexican" I've eaten at. Booths along the walls, tables in the center and such. The menu has some lunch and dinner specials. Chips were crisp and warm. Salsa wasn't too thin. The food arrived quite hot and with a good portion. Not too spicy, not too bland. I cleared the plate. Check arrived and for $10 with tip, I left with a full tummy and a satisfied palate. I'd return. read more

It's Mexican, even if is bad it's still good. lol good service. Clean food. We only do family night or after baseball game meals here. It's a good go to place. Cheap, clean, decent. read more

White-washed Mexican food. It's aight. The place was packed & all were having a good time. Dark & cool inside. Food is not too exciting.

Celebrated our grandson's 13 th birthday here and we all had a wonderful time. Food was good and the service was fantastic. The staff sang happy birthday to him at the end, put a sombrero on his head and served him a dessert. He loved it and we all enjoyed seeing his happy face! read more

Consistently good food and great margaritas. Lots of seating for large groups too. The waitstaff is friendly.

The menu had a big price jump, about 60%. You used to be able to get a lunch special for under $6 now it is $10. Nothing changed, same food, same taste and same portion size. A casualty of 2023, if people are willing to pay it than that is what they will charge. 2 people, 2 meals, 2 drinks, tip, tax and credit fee $40. Eating at home never tasted so good. read more

We really enjoy coming to Rey Azteca. The food is always good and the service is good most times. However, tonight they had a child seating customers and while he was obviously following instructions (have to seat by whose turn it is), there were plenty of tables open. Ridiculous way to run a restaurant. This is an edit to my prior review. I wrote the review to complain about the seating issue. However it gets worse. We ordered our dinner and ordered our drinks. We ordered before a large table beside us. I wondered why they got their food before us and then the waitress brought our check. I explained we had not received our food and she seemed surprised. How do you not know that the table you are waiting has not been served!!!! Questioning if we'll go back!!!! read more

First time here tonight. Busy Sat night but seated right away. There was some confusion about who our server was. But eventually a server (Noe) asked if we had been helped after 10 min or so. He was great. Adopted us. Great service. We got Carnitas and the Shrimp Con creams. Carnitas was flavored great, but the portion was small And disappointing for $12:25. The shrimp con creama however was a huge portion And delicious. Loved it. We will come back when not So busy for sure. read more

We really love the food here. It's so good. And we eat here pretty regularly. But we came this time on a Sunday afternoon and the boisterous music is so loud you have to raise your voice to converse with your table mates. Add to that the noise of all the other diners also competing with the music. I can't wait to get my bill so I can get out of here. Not exactly a pleasant dining experience. Oiy. read more

I like this place when looking for Mexican/American food. It's a good price for a good quantity of food. The staff is always friendly and the manager is attentive. read more

Came here for lunch. We had to wait a bit to have a waiter, but once they took our order it was crazy fast. The complimentary chips and salsa are wonderful. I ordered the fajita burrito and it came stuffed with steak. I can put away food and it was a struggle to finish my meal. Great food, huge portions and a good value. I will come here again for sure. read more

BEWARE DO NOT GO HERE!!!! Go to Aztec Grill instead! I would give this place a ZERO star rating if I could. Went to have a quiet dinner with my brother on a Tuesday night. We were greeted at the door which was the only positive thing about this experience. We asked the waitress for details about the menu, she seems very unfamiliar and confused. We ordered a 1/2 pitcher of Texas Margaritas, which included top shelf liquor, supposedly. Upon ONE sip from each of us, we discovered it was disgusting and I didn't taste a drop of tequila! NONE! To be clear, the 1/2 pitcher was $12.99. We explained to the waitress that the drink was gross and unpalatable and we would like something else. She asked what was wrong and we sent the drinks back and ordered a Lime Margarita($7.99) and Dos Equis Larger, as both are pictured and displayed on the menu. The waitress delivered my Margarita which still tasted like juice and delivered an Amber Dos Equis. She stated after bringing it to him That they didn't have the Larger. WTF?! Why didn't you explain that when we ordered it and repeated himself three times! We ordered chimichanga, tacos and two orders of quesos. The food was mediocre at best. Chips were stale and salsa lacked flavor. We ate it and moved on. The waitress brought the check and the 1/2 pitcher still appeared! We asked why my Lome Margarita didn't appear and she voiced jay the manager has to charge us for the pitcher as we drank some. We both tasted it! If I had known it would be a problem, I would have photographed it. Further, as I dine out several times a week, I have never heard of such when a drink is made poorly! We asked to speak to the manager who wouldn't come over and speak to us so hopefully, he sees this! Don't dine here you will regret it! Try Aztec Grill right up the street! My brother is local and he will be spreading the word about the poor service, basic, slightly palatable food, and horrible cocktails, which you will be charged for! You've been warned! Thank me later when you enjoy Aztec Grill! Signed with Love of Mexican and Disappointment, The Original Charlestonian read more

Great food!!!!!!!!!!!!!Great margaritas!!!!!Great service!!!!!!!! No wait time on Saturday!

It was ok. The place was empty but still we waited to be served. It was nothing special and expensive. Great location but they are missing something. The customer service aspect was lacking as well. read more

My wife and I recently stopped by for dinner and greatly regret it. The service was ridiculously slow. The food while inexpensive was mediocre at best. We will not be back. read more

Always quick attentive service. Not on the menu, but they have ceviche and the portion is huge to share and extra delicious. Tad pricey, but so good and if it were not for those chips this would be super good for you. Jumbo margarita is best value. They offer nightly specials and when it is nice out, the deck is a great spot to grab good eats. read more

Great little hidden joint just across Buster Boyd Bridge in SC. Just like most all Mexican Restaurants they start you off with Chips & Salsa. The salsa was great! It was well favored with the right amount of kick. It you don't like spicy this my be a little hot. I ordered the combination #18 (burrito, taco, rice & beans). The ground beef was seasoned well. They were a little skimpy on the rice. The beans were favored as well and weren't dry. My wife ordered the Pollo Con Crema. It was really good as well. The chicken was well seasoned & grilled perfectly. The Crema was good, maybe a little heavy on the sour cream size. Again they were a little skimpy on the rice. Overall. I will definitely come back & I recommend crossing the border for it! read more

Food and service both are good. They have many things in corn tortilla which helps gluten free customers like me. The chicken soup with rice is very comforting and warm dish. Me and my husband both enjoy it. read more

My family and I visit this restaurant frequently, or at least we used to until the quality of food has forced us to make the conscious decision to drive further away for other Mexican alternatives. The past several visits, the burritos have been bathed in meat grease. And this is really gross. The burrito arrives with enough grease around it to literally spoon 6-10 spoonfuls out of the plate. I've started sending it back but the next visit, the same plate arrives again. So my private criticism has obviously had no impact on the product. Last night my family wanted to go there, so I agreed and thought I would bypass this problem and just order tacos. But nope. Same deal, only in the tacos. I should've taken a picture. Disgusting. Will not eat their food again. read more

Food was great- ask for there homemade hot sauce- delicious! Had the Paradilla fajitas- awesome! Service was spot on!

Fun time especially for a birthday. Menu choices are great. Reasonably priced. Drinks by the pitcher if you want.
