    Great Mexican breakfast!! This is the place to go if you know what GOOD Mexican food is!

    Pollo Enchiladas rojas y 2 pollo tacos LOADed

    Great Small town find. Little place (looks to seat about 40), nothing fancy, booth and table seating available. They have your basic fountain drinks, teas, but they also have Jarritos and other Mexican drinks. Muy Delicioso!!! I ordered the Chicken Enchiladas rojas (which you get a choice, roja or verde). On the side i got 2 loaded chicken tacos. The enchiladas are about 6 (i believe) rolled corn tortillas topped with red sauce, crumbled cheese, shredded lettuce, avocado, and topped with sour cream. I was so hungry when i ordered i wasn't sure how many came with it but, i do remember thinking "but wait......there's more!" Haha. The tacos were fantastic. They don't cheat you here. If you can fold the corn tortilla and somehow not get anything on your face.....somethings wrong. SO good!!! To be accurate, "finger-licking good." I was very happy to find this place, it is real...... not 'Americanized'. Yaaaaaaay!!!! Buen Provecho!!!!

    We originally got the tip that they had a bologna burger here so decided to check it out finally. I was happy to see that this was a Mexican place and that it didn't wasn't in the speedy Gonzales and numbered lunch family of establishments. One thing that could be a drawback is sodas are sold by the bottle and only tea or water comes in something you can get refills in as far as I know. But they have Jaritos and horchata, so. I had fried chicken tacos, which are kind of like taquitos at other places, little fried tubes of meat. Very tasty with salad, rice, cheese and beans. And the spicy green sauce on the side was really good. My husband had a Cuban. It looked like it had a hot dog or sausage on it, but I was assured their take was absolutely delicious. They have a lot of breakfast options - not sure if they serve all day, but I want to come back and try some more things. Very tasty.

    I am so glad we discovered this place! The steak tacos are the best in North Carolina and they are truly authentic. Th sweet tea is great and the customer service and prices are even better. I feel cheated that this place has been around for years in Oxford just not in this location because they would've had my families money years ago!!! The restaurant is clean and welcoming, down to earth and cozy. Truly my favorite spot in town!!!

    Ignore that they don't have a sign out front yet, just look for the cars. Great place for traditional Mexican food and great sweet tea. Many food options and good prices, I like to get a variety of tacos and a torta, though I now try to avoid the chorizo (heavily spiced and greased). Definitely need to check out the breakfast soon.

    Great authentic food! Had the empanadas and they were amazing. And its a nice and inviting place. Highly recommend it!

    Best burrito in town. When you get the chips as a starter skip the salsa and get guacamole instead. I like mine without the tomato in it.

    Mazatlán is one of the places frequented by my group of co-workers for lunch. I have been going…read morewith them since Jul 2024. So far, I have tried three dishes from their menu: Arroz con Pollo (ACP), Dos Amigos and Arroz con Camaron (ACC). I had ACP on my first visit. It was good. After that, I alternated between dos amigos and ACC. I liked dos amigos the most, and ordered it at least twice. It's grilled tilapia fillet with buttery shrimp, garlic sauce, Spanish rice and beans. The last time I had it on was on Jan 27. I got sick from diarrhea the next day. It soured my opinion on that dish. The other frequent dish was ACC. I would have rated it highly had I not been to Toros Cantina on 1011-109 Lewis St. Their ACC is better, and I've ordered it many times. It included veggies, which helped to balance the taste of the melted cheese. At Mazatlán, veggies is an extra charge. Their ACC isn't as hearty being just shrimp and rice. On my last visit (with co-workers) on Dec 29, I had ACP with veggies. The chicken was a little tough. On the plus side, Mazatlán provides complimentary chips and sauce with no limit. When the basket is empty, it is promptly refilled. Same with the sauce. Service has been impeccable every time I was there. The manager periodically checks up on us to see how we are doing (if we need anything). Every time we were there, we never had to wait for a table. There's plenty of public parking too. Traffic is reasonably light during lunch time (though we are usually there by 11:30am).

    I love rubber ducks!!!…read more We stopped by for a light lunch. My husband ordered the buffalo chicken dip and loved it. He has most of it on top of his tots, so he was a very happy guy. I ordered the burnt ends which were delicious, sticky and a little bit spicy with those jalapenos in the sauce. Sweet potato waffle fries were nice and crispy. They were nice enough to bring me honey mustard dressing for dipping. The kitchen seemed a little overwhelmed. It was quite busy when we walked in, but it was worth the wait. As for the beer list, I liked the number of beers that were low (less than 25) on the IBU scale. I don't like hoppy beers. I enjoyed the Cupid is as Cupid does ale.

    I stopped by this brewery while road-tripping between Richmond and Charlotte--always on the hunt…read morefor a new spot with solid beer and food. Unfortunately, this one didn't quite hit the mark. The space itself is nice--plenty of seating inside and out, a private room in the back, clean bathrooms and even a stage where live music was playing during our visit. But the food situation was confusing. They have a full kitchen and menu listed, yet when we arrived, they were only serving food from a BBQ food truck/side business. Not sure if it was a staffing issue, a special event, or just how they do things on certain days, but it definitely wasn't clear for someone just passing through. Beer-wise, they had a decent range of styles, but nothing really stood out flavor-wise. Everything was just... okay. Not bad, but not memorable. Service was similar--there seemed to be only one guy behind the bar running things while the rest were tied to the BBQ setup. He wasn't rude, just not super engaged. All in all, this place was fine, but nothing WOWed me. With a little more clarity on the food, a stronger beer lineup and more upbeat staff, it could be a much better stop for travelers passing through, or even the regulars.
