    Carnitas

    We love Taxco. Every time we go, we have such a great experience and delicious food. Everyone is so friendly. They check on you regularly and make you feel like familia. Always going back for takeout and dining in.

    We called in an order for lunch today for 3 beef burritos combo. All of the beef was so so salty we couldn't eat any of them. I called and asked for the manager to let him know about this. All he said was "ok". I will NEVER eat there again! We thought we had found a place with great food. Nope!

    My friend and I decided to eat at this place as our original place we decided upon was closed. She has been here several times and loves it. This was my first time, and on a Friday night, we were surprised to see that there was no wait. Now I don't eat dinner usually so I just tagged a long and ordered a glass of wine. Place was like any normal Mexican restaurant. I'm pretty spacious with a lot of seating options. All the servers and employees were super friendly, and the service was great. I ended up ordering their wings, but I will say I was not a fan. They were very crispy, and some parts burnt, so I'm not a huge fan, but now I know for next time. Overall, I will probably come again during lunch and especially since it is super close to my house.

    Sunday at our favorite place

    Great food every time. The service is always fast and friendly, prices are good and the restrooms are spotless.

    Great margaritas! This is very classic mexican food. The flag taquitos is one of my fave dishes by far. It's three taquitos one with red sauce, queso, and Verde salsa. The steak tacos are also amazing. Fresh chips and salsa stays stocked!

    Taxco is in Brighton Park and is very convenient. There are lunch specials every day and the prices are reasonable. The service is really good and all of the food comes out quickly. We got a beef and chicken taco, beans, burrito and quesadilla. Chips and salsa comes out right when you are seated to hold you over until dinner. There are multiple tvs if you want to watch a game! If you are in the area and craving mexican this is the place to go!

    Great food. Great service. Reasonable pricing. Restaurant has been in Mint Hill long time. Ask for servers Jesus or Martin

    I feel like they could do better. One star for having cheap Dos Equis amber on draft but the food was subpar. Our waitress was attentive but she didn't know the WiFi password. I asked a guy in the back but I don't think he knew what I was saying. Chips weren't fresh and the salsa offerings were okay. Had the enchiladas suizas. No idea why they call them that as it was enchiladas mole. Mole sauce was again just okay. Rice and beans were better. Never a good thing. Tried the chili poblanos and would probably try those again next time. Over all I just think they could do a lot more with their food.

So, we ordered one of each (easily split btw 3-4 ppl) and LOVED it!! My fav taco is the street corn taco with shrimp . Delicious sweet and savory.

Apart from that she was friendly and helpful. We ordered the shrimp fajita and bc my daughter loves shrimp I asked if was spicy and even the queso they only have the one w jalapenos which I love but my daughter couldn't enjoy as much bc it became too Spicy for her. The horchata was too sweet - according to my 7 year old who loves sweets, I also tried and compared to our local taco place it was very sweet, she didn't event drink it and ordered water. I had the skinny margaritas which also not my favorite the alcohol portion was on point very nice and you could taste it which I appreciate it since I was cold outside, but the flavor was missing. Overall the food is good the prices and service are all very good. Ambience is traditional Mexican skeletons decor like dis de los muertos everyday. If you haven't been here it's worth the trip to try Mexican style and imaginative American menu.

I also got the elote loco. I really wanted a traditional elote but the lady said elote loco and I replied yes, and so that's how that went. Not even 10 min later my food was out. They give complimentary chips & salsa. The elote loco was ok. Not usually something I would order but wasn't bad. I ate it all. Worth ordering twice if you're a fan of the red stuff. My burrito was a decent size. Short and fat. Rolled terribly. All of the guac and little bit of sour cream was on one side of the burrio and the other end had the chicken and rice. There was a thin amount of beans. The chicken was hella dry. Like it has been cooked a day before and reheated in a microwave. The flavor was lacking. The chips and salsa. The chips were warmed, but the salsa was giving crushed tomatoes with garlic. It was more of a tomato than a salsa. Personally, I wouldn't come back but they do have other dishes and so maybe I just ordered something that isn't one of their bests. My total was around $26. A bit steep for such mid food.

My waitress was bright and smiling on this early Sunday morning. I ordered my usual "test" plate I use on 1st trips to get a feel for the place. Nailed it! Fast, hot, freakin' delicious.

Sausage patties large and very good, similar to Neese's if you know what I mean, and perfect! Hashbrowns, perfect! Add the constant top-off on my coffee with the aforementioned smiles, and this is a hidden jewel in Charlotte folks.

Yum yum! I ordered the Bananas Foster waffle with chicken tenders and whew...absolutely delicious. Sweet, warm, indulgent and exactly the kind of comfort food my spirit needed.

And my SO completely cleaned his plate of liver mush, grits, eggs and biscuit - he never does that. He also had a passion fruit margarita that he raved about the entire ride home. Honestly, taking care of me right now is a full-time job, so I fully support the brunch cocktail. What I loved most? Wakey Wakey isn't trying to be fancy or pretentious. It's just good people serving good food in a welcoming atmosphere -- and that's exactly what I needed!

As a California-born taco lover, I'm almost embarrassed to admit how incredible the tacos are here... because I've eaten at just about every hole-in-the-wall from Tijuana and all up and down the East Coast. I know good tacos, and this place absolutely deserves its flowers. Every single taco was phenomenal, but the steak is out of this world. The flavors are bold, the textures are on point, and the tortillas hold everything together without falling apart, which is a bigger deal than people realize. If you appreciate real tacos and not just "taco-adjacent" food, Que Onda is well worth checking out.

My friend arrived before me and said despite the place being empty, the service was slow and it took a while for a hostess to make eye contact to seat her. I had been super excited about the sorbet margaritas. I triple checked the website menu which states this location DOES have them. The waitress informed us this was the only location that does not have them (which I later saw on social media), however the website menu specifies "sorbet margaritas" at the Matthews location. Our food was good. We enjoyed what we ordered. I had been also looking forward to the Oaxacan churros, but our waitress didn't know what they were and asked "you mean just the regular Bavarian churros?". The churros arrived with two thin dipping sauces, definitely not dulce de leche or cream dips, just two very soupy ones, but flavor was fine. This location is just in a shopping center next to a grocery store so it's not really "restaurant vibes" and isn't given the same attention or detail or menu highlights or features as the other locations, so I wouldn't go back. But I made the drive especially for those items so I do want to go back and try them as I had been looking forward to it since moving here.
