    For a Sunday, this place was busy! I tried the guacamole and salsa as a first because that will usually tell you if the food is decent. Well, the salsa and guacamole were tasty and fresh. Well, I got 3 tacos as well, carne asada and shredded chicken. Both were a bit overcooked and lacking flavor, so I was a bit disappointed with that. The ambiance is nice, drinks are ok, prices are modest and the service was great.

    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.

    Stopped here halfway on a trip from VA to Charleston. What a delight! Food was terrific. Very well made. Service was fast and very friendly. A true diamond in the rough.

    Stopped on the way home from a family visit. It's a 3 hour…read moretrip, and we had an hour left. We were hungry, and knew we didn't want to try to make dinner when we got home at 9pm and still had to unload the car. I knew Rockingham had a good amount of places, so I looked up on yelp, and saw that this place had some good reviews. We figured it was worth a try. There are 4 of us in the car, not overly hungry, but needed something. We got the 10 pack of tacos, half hard shell, half soft shell for $9.75. Awesome deal!! We ordered chips, and Loco sauce, since we saw a tip from someone else that it was good. The 4 of us are full just from the 10 tacos, and a couple of chips each to try the sauce. The tacos are amazing. The place closes in an hour, and the food was still fresh and good. We love the sauce, and will definitely be back for more tacos and loco sauce!!!! Thank you, Yelp, for helping us pick a great place for a quick, and excellent bite to eat on our trip home.

    They'll get your take out order right about 1/2 the time. Out of the last 4 times we've ordered…read morefrom them, items have been left off, or missing completely. Their food is great, but it you order cheese dip, chips should come with the order. If you order chicken and shrimp fajitas, it should come with chicken and shrimp. Not steak and chicken. How you get that mixed up, I'll never understand.
