We stopped at Veracruz with our whole crew--two adult daughters, my son-in-law, and three grandbabies (8 years, 2 years, and a sweet 4-month-old)--so you already know this wasn't just lunch ... it was a family reunion! Right away, the atmosphere felt relaxed and welcoming--exactly what you need when you've driven 3 hours to get here. The kids were restless and hungry. The space isn't overly fancy, but it's comfortable and casual, which worked perfectly for our group who each sat in a car for over 3hrs. Jess drove drown from Washington, NC and we drove up 3hrs from Hanahan,SC.We needed to stretch our legs and he kids needed to exit the car. No one made us feel rushed, and that alone earns big points when you're juggling babies and diaper bags. This is where Veracruz was a lifesaver, it was our first time here. The menu is packed with authentic options--tacos, fajitas, seafood, and house specials--and everything we tried tasted fresh and well-seasoned. The Al Pastor and Carnitas tacos were a standout--juicy, packed with meat, and served with that a cooked onion and jalapeño peppers, sliced cucumbers. Jenn ordered a beautiful chicken taco salad (lettuce, tomatoes, black beans, shredded cheese and grilled chicken breast), the 2 older kids each had a 3 chicken tenders and french fries platter, Jess and Matt ordered the Fajita Lunch#3- Shrimp & Steak fajitas with sauted onions and peppers and a side of yellow rice w/ refried beans and a side salad. We ordered 3 Tamarindo Jarritos and 1 coke. The Portions were generous and the food was very tasty. Even our 2 super picky eaters found something they liked--always a win with kids. Auntie Jess blessed her nephew and nieces with toys so they were fully satisfied and quiet for at least 10 minutes--that says everything. No one left hungry and only 1 meltdowns at the table. Yes, the 4 month old!!! Cindy was our waitress amd she was solid--kind and engaging. Our food came out hot and relatively quick, which is critical when kids are involved. Orders were accurate, and everything felt freshly made rather than rushed. Garnished with fresh, colorful produce.

This place is amazing. The food is reasonably priced, delicious, and heart servings. House tortilla chips are homemade! Staff was friendly and attentive. We visited on a Thursday early evening and was shocked the pace wasn't more packed given how delicious it was. read more

Veracruz Authentic Mexican Food - Mexican Near Me - Lumberton, North Carolina

Thursday night was Mexican Night and we decided to give this new spot a try. Veracruz is at the front of a local shopping complex just a bit off the primary road. They have ample parking and the restaurant is easily accessible. You enter a vibrant and bright restaurant with plenty of tables to accommodate even larger groups. We started with the normal salsa and chips, and then tried the Bindip (Bean Dip with Queso). It was awesome! My meal was the ACP but I added some green peppers and mushrooms to the order, and that too was phenomenal. The rest of the family enjoyed their meals as well. Overall, this place serves up excellent food at a reasonable price. It's clean, staff is friendly, and service is great. What more could you ask for? I definitely recommend! read more
