Low key, no frills Mexican restaurant serving up major flavor! The decor and music was very traditional and well done. I ordered the guac and birria tacos. The guac was good and tasted very fresh. The tacos were full of flavor. They have an option for 4 or 6 tacos. I went right at opening so service was great. Waiter was attentive and kind. I would definitely return if in the concord area! read more

Tacos El Peladito - Tacos de Birria and medium Guacamole Mediano - Mexican Near Me - Concord, North Carolina

If you want authentic Mexican, I suggest you eat here! It's tucked away in a semi-busy shopping center in Concord. They offer several tequila options, and have signature margaritas. I ordered the "Quesabirria", which is a 10" wide pizza style dish made with tortillas and filled with birria, cilantro, and white onion. Of course, the provide a cup of consume as well. It was to die for. Also ordered Menudo, and 3 tacos (tongue, intestine, and cheek). Everything was incredible! I truly cannot wait to go back! Even the salsa they serve when you are seated is fresh and full of flavor. No bottled or bland salsa here! The service is decent, even though we had to wait a few times for refills, extras, etc. Price wise, you cannot beat it for the size of product you are given. read more

To be clear up front I ordered through Uber eats after finding it on Yelp. So in that way I cannot speak to the ambience to much as it was a quick in and out. I believe I ate her once before with family so I can say it's family friendly but this and the very nice gentleman I picked up my food from did make me feel like Keith Lee. Anyway the whole point of me saying anything is really cause of their Cali Burrito. It's everything you want out of a burrito with fries inside. I have heard of this and I have normally not gotten it. However this time I roll the dice and I was so happy I did. Half the burrito later I was beyond satisfied. I greedy stared at the other half before deciding to reluctantly save it. I ate on the salad it came with which tasted seasoned. As well as the sour cream. Not sure how I felt about that. Mainly cause I wasn't expecting it. But also I liked it cause then it was more than a basic salad. I would recommend. read more

Food is amazing good service good prices. Birria tacos are delicious some of the best burritos

My group of 6 decided to try this place for dinner. It was my first time there but some of the others tried it and liked it. I am always willing to try out a Mexican restaurant. It all started with the typical ordering of drinks and being served up chips and salsa. The chips were good, hot, and crispy! The salsa tasted like pizza sauce with cilantro added to it. The salsa was the only thing that I didn't really like there. I ordered enchiladas topped with queso and served with rice and beans. They were delicious. Several people got the Tacos De Birria. This is a dish not found at many restaurants. They are wonderful! One person got the Arroz Con Pollo and another got the El Pastor tacos. Everything was good. The service was good. They added a "gratuity" to our bills for having 6 people in our party. I plan to return to support this family owned business. read more

My coworkers and I specifically come to Tacos El Peladito to eat their tacos de birria. There are numerous other Mexican restaurants nearby who's birria we've tried as well but, Tacos El Peladito has proven to have the freshest food, friendliest staff, and cleanest restrooms/ dining area. The only negative thing I have to say is that I wish their salsa that is served with tortilla chips was homemade. read more

Tacos were great price - best carnitas and chicharron that I've had in CLT. Carnitas wasn't dry at all. Also had the barbacoa quesadilla - pretty meh - good flavor but mushy. read more

If I could give 10 stars, I would. Like you honestly will not find a more authentic, fresh taco near the 704. A lil wait, but it's worth it, cause it's a magical kitchen. Try all the tacos, even the ones that you're like, ehhhhh. Seriously. Everything is so good and seasoned. The chips, yum. The red tamales, OUT OF THIS WORLD. The salsa verde, addictive. The chocolate flan, perfect. Everything comes out hot. If you're looking for a sign, this is it. Service, attentive as hell, welcoming, kind. 10 stars as well. read more

Tacos El Peladito - the interior of a restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Concord, North Carolina

I love family-owned businesses and this place has the best street tacos in the area! Food: Esquites: street corn with mayo, cheese, chili powder, and seasonings. Fabulous. The street tacos are great. We had al pastor, camera, tripa, and lengua. The tripa was crunchy like pork rinds and the al pastor sweet and savory. The restaurant prepares the al pastor meat in a trompo, how cool is that?! Also, it was my first time trying mole and it was thick, hearty, and delicious! Def want to clean the plate up with tortillas. The family gets the ingredients from Pueblo, where they're originally from, then prepare it in house for their patrons! My visit was amazing, the server answered my questions and I learned that mole differs depending on the region(Pueblo, Oaxaca, etc). The inside is spacious with eclectic decor and bomb salsa music. Patrons can come in, eat, and watch a good game of futból on TV. Check it out if you're ever in Concord! read more

Very nice server and I wasn't sure exactly what to get since this is not my normal Mexican place and sometimes they all taste different so I opted for nachos... They were delicious. Not just a little bit of cheese, but lots of cheese and great pickled jalapeños. Chips were very fresh! read more

This restaurant confused me. The service was amazing except when it wasn't. Our server couldn't have been friendlier, and he was very helpful when it came to answering questions. I was not a fan of his constant "no problem" response to everything - if I'm giving you my order, under what circumstances would that BE a problem? It's a very strange response, in my opinion - but both me and my friend thought he was very attentive and helpful. Until my friend put in an order to go. It took about 30-40 minutes to receive the order, and the lengthy wait severely diminished our appreciation of the service. I loved the original salsa - it tasted fresh, a little sweet, and was very mild, and it was perfect. But the chips were too thick and didn't have much flavor, so I didn't eat many of them. The chips weren't warm and didn't taste homemade at all. I ordered the chicken enchiladas with the tomatillo salsa, and they were very good. They came with pinto beans and rice, and neither side had much flavor. The enchiladas tasted homemade (although the salsa could well have been from a jar), but the pinto beans tasted like they came straight from a can and the rice tasted like it was from a package. I genuinely got the sense that this restaurant was more authentically Mexican than most you can find in this area, but I also felt like they took many shortcuts when it came to the food itself. I can't imagine going back. I didn't hate it by any means. If anything, like I said at the beginning, I'm more confused than anything. But nothing about the meal made me want to come back a second time. read more

The staff is wonderful! Excellent and friendly service every time. Good for family and groups. I always get the torta.

The Birria tacos here is SOOOOOOOO amazingggggg! The meat is PACKED with flavors.. and the shells are sooo flavorful and crunchy, and the spicy steak plate with rice and beans were also good and spicy. The chips are served fresh, the guac and salsa flavors are there, esquites and pina colada were also really good. Would highly recommend people to come and give this place a try. Juan was our server and he gave us amazing service! If I lived in this area I would definitely come here everyday! read more

Good food! I ordered a few times and never disappoint. I definitely recommend this place

We relocated to Charlotte from Southern California 6 years ago. Mexican food was one of our absolute favorites and outside of a few taco trucks or hole in the wall places, we've been unable to find anything that evokes the same feelings or joy of authentic Mexican food. Then we found Tacos El Peladito. We were in the area for a doctor appointment with my son, and wanted to grab lunch. Saw this place on yelp and took a gamble. I cannot express to you enough how good the entire experience was. From the moment we walked in (we did take out) we were treated with warmth and friendliness. We ordered tacos birria, shrimp tacos, and three burritos (carne asada California style, and two carnitas house style). Hot salsas we're on point and varied. Habanero was the bomb, verde was great, chipotle was appropriately smoky, and chili de arbol was fragrant and wonderful. The birria was like eating a warm hug. Comforting and familiar, juicy, flavorful, perfect. We have told all of our fellow North Carolina Californians and we plan to return soon and frequently! It's a bit of drive for us but absolutely worth it. We just found our new favorite AUTHENTIC Mexican restaurant. Bravo! Muchas Gracias!!! read more

I've been looking for authentic, delicious Mexican food here in Charlotte since I moved here... I'm Mexican and grew up in San Diego 10 min from the border, so my expectations are very high. We tried a little bit of everything-aguas frescas, gorditas, tacos, gorditas and a quesadilla. Everything was so good and flavorful! Service was extremely fast and waitresses are very attentive. You can tell it's family owned, there's love in every bite. I highly recommend this restaurant:) read more

Tacos El Peladito - So much food, we couldn't even finish it - Mexican Near Me - Concord, North Carolina

Loved our waiter and his knowledge of the menu and his politeness. He was attentive. We think his name is Emmanuel. Wasn't fond of the chips and salsa but loved their menu which had tons of things on it we hadn't seen before. We lived 4 miles from Mexico and have had a lot of Mexican food and everything we ordered was good especially the street corn. read more

What a great experience! We were just passing through stopped in and we were wowed by the delicious food.

Really cute restaurant visually. The staff was sooo nice. The bathrooms could be cleaner. My kids and I got an assortment of street tacos, and my husband got the California burrito. We also got chips and queso as an appetizer. The queso was good and the salsa was good (we got normal and asked for a hot salsa too). It didn't come with enough chips though to finish the queso. That was a bummer. The menu was kinda confusing when it came to chips- it said first basket is complementary sorta implying you had to pay for more? We did get a second basket and I don't think it showed up as a charge on the receipt though. My husband said his burrito was pretty good. The street tacos were really lacking though. The meat on the shredded chicken and steak was a little over cooked. The chicken had no flavor or seasoning at all. The Al pastor was the best one flavor wise and also cooked well. It was a good experience overall but I'd probably get something else on the menu to try if we go back. I'd also hope for more chips at these types of restaurants, that's usually the best part haha. read more

I've been here before & would've given 5 stars but I'm only giving one star due to how rude & inappropriate our check out went yesterday evening. After ordering my dinner date could not eat her food due to it being too spicy, giving her heartburn. She expressed this to the waiter & he stated that he would take it off after removing it from the table. I also ordered the same thing & it was spicer than normal & I voiced this as well. At check out the cashier stated that she wasn't taking it off due to it not being spicy, (she only took one bite) then processed to state that with her order she had a refill, which had nothing to do with the issue at hand. The cashier became irate and very rude. In turn we paid the entire order & Will Not Return. Very disappointed because they do have good food. read more

Literally the BEST quesobirria tacos I've ever had! So good. Everything was good IMO. I had the elote and chorizo queso as well and it was all bomb! The first time I had birria tacos (at another restaurant ) the consume was so greasy and it was not good at all. This was a totally different experience and I will definitely order again. The salsa verde that comes with the tacos is also really good. 10/10!!! read more

Please let me know if this is the same place that I went to. I was wondering why I've never heard anyone speak of this place. It was mediocre and I wasn't harsh on stars because it seemed to be clean and has around a 98 sanitation score, which is always important. I noticed upon entering I believe and I know for sure throughout menu about being patient because food is cooked to order which is fine with me. I enjoy fresh food, but the food was faster than the waitress. She literally took her title to heart "wait-rest" I'll call her. It took her minimum ten minutes to come take our drink order of our party of three and the restaurant only had 5 tables taken up. We were her only table and when she finally came to our table she didn't bring the one, yes I mean "1" complimentary basket of chips per table that I had to convince her to bring. This review is my opinion along with my party so use as you may. Our visit did not feel welcoming beyond the guy that seated us, then down hill from there. This is probably why we had never heard of this place. We've lived here well over five years and patronize many Mexican restaurants with a couple favorites but wanted to try something different. There may be others like me that absurd prices upset my stomach. The small tacos are like food truck tacos and are close to $3 each and there is an upcharge for any tortilla outside of corn. The attached pic is the Choriqueso and it was $8, pic doesn't do it justice as to how small the serving size was. I continued on with dinner but when I seen they charge an extra $2.50 to top burrito with queso I'd had enough and was ready to go. They wasn't about to get me a second time, no way no how! I'm disappointed because it was my decision to pick this place and previous reviews I feel failed me. My apologies for the run-on sentences read more
