    Desserts and bar
    Larry B.

    In town for work for a night and stopped in for dinner. The staff welcomed us and promptly seated us. It was Tuesday so my wife had tacos. I had the Camarones el Diablo. We both enjoyed our dinners. The shrimp were just right, enough spice to be good but not so much as to be uncomfortable. The dining room was comfortable, nicely decorated and moderately quiet. The fried ice cream was wonderful.

    Love this restaurant. Every entree, dessert and appetizer are 5-Star every time we visit. Go and enjoy!

    Shrimp Quesadillas

    We never have any complaints when we come here. We live an hour away and it's definitely worth the drive. The food is always super good, the service is always great and they are super friendly and I love all the decor inside. I normally get tacos with a side of rice but I decided to get the Gorditas with a side of rice and they were amazing. With the Gorditas you can choose any kind of meat and you can mix and match them. I had the asada, carnitas and the suadero. My mom had 2 shrimp quesadillas which she said were delicious. She ordered 2 not knowing that they were kind of big. My mom also got the strawberry tres leches cake and I got the strawberry cheesecake. They were both delicious! I did forget to get pictures of them. I can't wait to go back and try more items here.

    Chips were good!

    For anyone who makes the trek from the Triad to our southeastern beaches like Oak Island, Holden, Ocean Isle, etc you know the opportunities and selection on where to eat are pretty limited. You can either stop in Rockingham or Laurinburg for a halfway meal, and the choices on places to eat are mainly fast food. If we aren't feeling the CFA or Smithfield's, this is a great place to stop for some tacos. The Taco Factory looked a little different pre-COVID. There was a toppings and salsa bar, now the staff will top them for you however you want instead. I miss the self customization, but obviously things are how they are for now at least. Even when busy on travel days where people are going back and forth through this town, they keep the tables moving. Service and food is pretty quick to come out. The tacos are good enough to satisfy, but won't completely wow you. The chips are quite good, and you have lots of salsa to choose from, which is nice. All in all, a worthy stop for the travelers coming through, and for the locals who might want a taco fix!

    The service was speedy, food tasty and the beer was ice cold! We sat outside and enjoyed the fresh air and scenery.

    Chicken cordon bleu.  Absolutely delicious!   Unexpected flavors.

    This is one of the best Mexican restaurants around Southeastern North Carolina. More authentic and tastes delicious and it's not just a pile of meat.

    Churros with whipped cream and chocolate sauce.

    Great service and got our food fast and hot! Outdoor seating was a little bit dated but fit well with the theme of the restaurant.

    The Ambiance was as it should be accept there were only 4 people in there eating besides us…read more Outstanding service by Bayleigh, but the food was a major disappointment. My fellow veteran buddy and I stopped by the IHOP on Hwy 74 in Rockingham around 1:30 PM to discuss some upcoming events. We had a really bad experience here in the past, but one of the servers, Bayleigh, was the sole reason we decided to give it another shot. Coincidentally, Bayleigh ended up being our server again today. Even though the restaurant was short-staffed--a cook actually had to seat us because he was waiting on the next shift--Bayleigh willingly stayed past her shift just to take care of us because she recognized us. Her dedication and customer service were truly 10/10. Unfortunately, the kitchen didn't match her effort: The Food Quality: They were out of ingredients for my original sandwich choice, so I went with the bacon, avocado, chicken sandwich on whole grain toast. My buddy ordered the beef Philly. Both came with onion rings, and I got a side of fries. Kitchen Mistakes: My sandwich was initially brought out missing the avocado, but Bayleigh caught it right away and had the kitchen fix it. When it came back, the chicken looked burnt, and the toast was so dry, hard, and over-toasted that it was literally falling apart in my hands--I had to smash the avocado just to bind the sandwich together. Inedible Saltiness: Worst of all, both of our sandwiches were so brutally salty it tasted like the lid fell off the shaker and dumped right onto the food. Neither of us could finish our meals. We ended up just drinking our drinks, paying, and leaving. Bayleigh apologized sincerely for the kitchen's mistakes, and she was easily the best part of the entire visit. Management really needs to address the kitchen staff and food prep, because servers like Bayleigh shouldn't have to carry the burden of a terrible kitchen. The 3 stars are for experience with the food. But Bayleigh gets a 5 stars review

    Let me say that I am a big fan of IHOP. They have had problems, but on September 6, 2026, they were…read moreon point. The young waiter was very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. The food took a little longer coming out, but it was an off hour from normal eating times, so they main staff was gone. When the food came it was awesome! The restaurant was clean, inside and out. Music was playing at a level you could still talk and hear your table conversation. I didn't think to take a picture, but the one thing I can say is everything I have ever eaten at any IHOP looks like the picture in the Menu when it is served. Not like most restaurants. It was a very enjoyable trip, can't wait to go back!
