The food here is always delicious and the staff are very friendly and courteous. We were there on Bingo night and it was a little loud, but it looked like everyone was having fun. read more

The service was very fast everyone was very friendly. The food was amazing! I got the Tacos de carne Asada

Let me begin by saying the food was pretty good. I got chicken fajitas and asked them to hold the pico de gallo. They were sizzling hot and had good flavor. My husband got Enchiladas Supreme. He said they were okay. I wish they would get real glasses or cups because the plastic disposable cups were small and flimsy. The straws were already in our drinks when he brought them out. I prefer to open my straw myself but I have a feeling these weren't wrapped separately to start with. The service was adequate. You can't tell this is a Mexican restaurant from the inside. Some of the tables are folding tables. There is carpet on the floor. The place seems to be very clean and there are a few Christian wall hangings which is nice. If I was local I would probably get take out from this place regularly but if you're looking for the full Mexican restaurant experience, this doesn't quite have that atmosphere. read more

We were in town for a family reunion and came in last minute with a HUGE party. 19 of us. We felt bad, but we were starving. The staff wasted no time in getting us set up and arranging our checks. Our server (I wish I knew her name) was conscientious and made sure that we, as she said, "Enjoy our experience." The service here is uncommonly good. Then a trivia game started and half of our party was pitted against the other. We won, BTW. They took and ordinary occasion and made it extraordinary. They helped us make a lasting memory. Oh, and the did us good and the margaritas are legit. read more

Stopped here for a bite to eat on a road trip. Nice restaurant and very friendly staff. Felt like eating with family at a relative's house. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. We ordered the Steak Lopez and the Chile Verde pork plate. Some of the best Mexican food I've had (and I'm from California where there is plenty of good Mexican food). The owner has a heart of gold - inviting anyone hungry in to eat even if they can't afford a meal (see photo attached). This restaurant is definitely a favorite when in the area. read more

We were in town for a family vacation. We were staying 3 minutes away at an Airbnb. We were left a list of great local options for food. Senior Lopez place wasn't on the list, but Yelp and Google showed good reviews. We decided to give it a try and we're very happy. Very friendly and quick service. The food was hot and delicious. Fresh homemade chips and salsa was served as soon as we sat down. We ordered the Taco salad, Enchiladas Texans, Quesadilla Rellena (beef), and Quesadilla Senior (chicken) all we're very delicious. I do wish the Taco Salad was a little more lettuce and a little less beef, but it was still very good. I would recommend this place if you are in town. read more

I live in Tellico and eat there quite often. Quite good. just don't order anything with steak in it. Tough as flank steak and grossly overcooked. One thing I really liked is their help offered during Covid. A customer could buy a $10 receipt and staple it to a board. Anyone in need can take one or more receipts to pay for his meal. I bought a couple. I was in yesterday and most of the board had been used up. read more

Had lunch here today because the Mexican restaurant we were planning to go to was closed for some kind of repair/s. Funny how life throws you a curve, but you find a nice, new alternative. I'm from SoCal, so Mexican cuisine is plentiful and varied. This was a nice surprise. While visiting family, we did some hiking in the Tellico Plains area and found this little gem. The food is very good! My family had the chorizo and eggs, chicken tacos and enchiladas, etc...and they were decent, but it's kind of hard to screw up those traditional "Mexican" dishes. I had the al pastor tacos, and this was VERY tasty al pastor. If you know anything about al pastor, you know it can be hit or miss... this was definitely a HIT! The decor is NOT kitschy Mexican restaurant... that was odd... but I read another review that mentioned a fire??? Hopefully, if this gem has suffered a setback, I hope the locals will help to get them back on their feet, because the food is very good, the service good, and this is a place worth supporting. GOOD Mexican food is not so easy to find! read more

Food was delicious all around. Fajitas a go! Loved that they provide free $10 meals to those in need. Nice people!

Great Mexican restaurant with wonderful food and drinks. Very good and friendly service too!! I've had Breakfast and dinner.

Great food, quick and attentive service. Their carne asada and Chile rellenos are excellent - as is their salsa, spicy and thick. Great food and service but absolutely NO Covid19 precautions or measures! Take your chances!! read more

I have ordered takeout here several times the food is always fresh and very tasty highly recommended Senor Lopez check them out

Traveling in from Buffalo, NY and found this little gem. Something about Mexican food in north Georgia and east TN. Food was great, and would definitely return. The only reason I don't give 5 stars is because the server wasn't familiar with the menu and wasn't the most attentive even with us being one of 3 groups in the restaurant. read more

We are vacationing here and stopped in for lunch . It was delicious! We had street tacos and the burrito deluxe so we could share . So much food had to take leftovers ! The staff is very friendly and service was impeccable. I highly recommend trying this place out if you are in the area . read more

Excellent food. Great service - very friendly and helpful. Good alcohol selection (hard seltzer's too - yay!). Their service is fast too, you don't wait long. Place is clean and easy parking. I'm not crazy about their salsa. Which it was homemade with chunks of tomatoes and ingredients (and spicier!), but all in all this is a great place to eat and prices are extremely reasonable. read more

My first time there was delicious. Pleasantly surprised. I've eaten lots of really good Mexican food when I lived in CA and this was right there in quality. I had the chicken tacos with chorizo, cilantro and cheese ( I forgot the name) and really enjoyed them. Will definitely go back. The chips were light and crunchy. The salsa was perfect. read more

Fire chips and salsa. Meh on the michelada was ok. But food was tasty nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Awesome food with great service. The owner Jaun is so nice and humble. Food and service was so good, we visited twice while in the area. The guacamole was delicious but the queso is to die for. They do have a bar which is always a plus. Saw a few negative reviews but trust me, they're unfounded in my opinion. Definitely try them out if you're in the area. read more

I visited on 4/16/2021 with a group. I was one of two people who developed severe food poisoning probably from bad chicken. Avoid at all costs. read more
