“My sister gifted my husband and I a gift card for Xmas. She works for three kings in south county another establishment with the same owners. The food and atmosphere at Three Kings is so great that we were thrilled to see they’d opened a Mexican restaurant as we love tacos! Just from walking up from the partying lot, I knew it would be great! The outside dining had lots of themed touches that were really nice! Soon as we walked in we were greeted and told of our wait time. we really appreciated that the hostess took our number and called us when our table was ready. We ended up sitting and waiting, we like to people watch :D the decor was gorgeous! I loved the succulent chandelier, the floral walls, the ceramic and the mosaic touches! All of their establishments are inviting and really create a nice atmosphere! Our server Charlie was friendly and knowledgeable regarding drinks and food! We each had a delicious margarita! The chips and salsa were fantastic! My husband ordered a smothered burrito and I opted for a taco plate. I was very impressed with the amount of options on the food especially for health conscious people- vegan, gluten free, etc! I loved that I could mix and match, I had a Baja fish taco and the vegan chorizo. Both were amazing! The slaw on the baja taco was sweet and crunchy! This was my first experience with vegan chorizo and it was the perfect amount of spicy! The plantains were delicious and basically became our dessert! We over indulged too much and skipped dessert, but we will be back soon so that we can order the Churros! Highly recommend checking out Tres Reyes and or Three Kings if you haven’t yet! You won’t be disappointed! :)“

“Street tacos were phenomenal, and the portions are generous. Ordered 3, was stuffed and still had enough stuff that fell off to make a 4th taco. Got the pineapple and cucumber agua fresca, which was amazing and refreshing. Best I’ve had in ages. Will definitely be back.“

“I love this restaurant. The menu is eclectic and the food is fantastic and the cocktails are really good. Great atmosphere inside and on the patio. I've been there for both lunch and dinner and the staff is very attentive and super nice. The Chicken Phad Thai Nachos are awesome!“

“We love the delicious food and atmosphere at Chevys! We always ask for Maria Medina to be our server. She is always very attentive to us, has an awesome, warm, friendly attitude--always makes sure that our visits are exceptionally wonderful.“

“Great food and great friendly service!“

“great food and presentation, yum!“

“We visit a lot of Mexican restaurants. We try new ones when we travel somewhere new. We have come across good ones and not so good ones. I would definitely go back here. The food was delicious and the service was good. I didn't love the ambiance, but that's secondary to cleanliness, service, and quality. I would recommend!“

“Food is SO good“

“one of the best taco spots in st.louis hands down“

“I have been there many times, and I have always received great service from all the waitresses. Carolina and Luisa will make you feel welcome and brighten your day. I've been through most of their menu and even asked them to pick a meal they thought was the best for me, and I was happily surprised at how wonderful it was. When they first opened, I had a going-away party for a friend with 12 people, and they could not have been more accommodating. Sidenote: if you've not had the choriqueso dip, you are in for a treat.“

“Great food and service! We’ll be back!“

“Every Mexican restaurant I go to, I always try the Chimichangas first. I did a pick up order. The Chimichangas had no cheese on top. I asked where was the cheese sauce, they pointed that it was located at the bottom. It was good but not the best I’ve had. Disappointed especially since it’s called CHIMICHANGAS 😂“

“The *best* neighborhood Mexican restaurant in St. Louis. Amazing cuisine, fast and friendly service, great value and the best margaritas in Rock Hill! My husband and I have been going to El Indio since the doors opened nearly 15 years ago and watched it grow into the successful restaurant it is today. It’s no wonder why it is such a gem in Rock Hill! Make El Indio your next night out. Order a pitcher of margaritas on the rocks, share among friends & family and discover what the rest of us already know and love!“

“Authentic tacos made fresh.“

“Great staff, outdoor dining, good prices and excellent food.“

“very good food and staff“

“Only complaint is that they don't give you extra chips with the Fiesta Dip, just the ones they brought to the table with salsa when seated.“

“Love this restaurant! Great food, great service, and definitely worth the 30 minute drive.“

“Love the food! Love the story behind how it came to be! Delicious drink options …and be sure to bookend your meal with chips & homemade salsa and then churros!“

“We had a birthday party here and it was my first time. The food and the margheritas were superb! The staff was friendly, patient and Wonderful. They even let us bring our own cake and provided plates and forks!!“

“Great food. Family owned. Great service“

“Yummy food and great service!“

“Just had a delicious authentic meal with one of the best spicy margaritas ever! Our server was beyond attentive, kind, and just all-around super nice! Cannot recommend this place enough, soooo good!!!“

“First time here. Delicious food and drinks! Fantastic staff! My new favorite restaurant.“

“Awesome food and service!!“

“Stopped in for some chips and salsa and flautas to go. Great batch of salsa and everything (including the chips) was fresh and great.
Easy in and out.

Parking: Parking lot is congested and kind of rough but I'd never hold that against Chevys 😀“

“Let me just preface this by saying I moved here from South Texas and have spent more than my fair share of time in Old Mexico. In years of searching for REAL Mexican food in St Louis, I’ve had many disappointments. This place was absolutely fantastic and pure pleasure for an old Texan. It even made me shhh my wife because I wasn’t willing to remove my focus from the delicacy I was partaking in. Can’t recommend this place enough and haven’t been able to stop telling others about it. I’ll be a permanent fixture there for sure.“

“I had three bad experiences at global quesadilla on 141 and Clayton The first time I went in there they told me they don't accept cash. the second time I went in I got a quesadilla, some chips, and queso. the queso tasted awful. it tasted like warmed up canned cheese or something. I'd buy at the gas station but not the hot stuff in the dispenser that tasted better. And to be honest, there's nothing special about the quesadillas for the ingredients that go into it, the amount of time it takes to make and what they're charging for it. I find it ridiculous. if it's not going to taste good it should be cheap. at that point I'd rather make them at home. my third bad experience is a as a doordasher. after confirming the name of my customer, I proceeded to include my business card. global quesadilla doesn't own that food. that food was paid for by my customer. they have no right to tell me I can't put a business card with the food. the employee proceeds to yell at me multiple times to hand the food back to which I responded no twice and started walking out of the store. he proceeded to follow me out of the store continuing to yell at me and I had to tell him multiple times to back up/go inside / leave me alone. and if he touched me there's going to be a problem I shouldn't be in fear for my physical safety going into any establishment. they were also rude and unprofessional the first day I went in trying to pay with cash. how they've handled themselves multiple times is completely unacceptable. there's a reason why I only ate the food once. if I want Mexican food I'll make it myself or go to Taco Bell or a sit-down Mexican restaurant.“

“Fast friendly people and the food is good“

“coming from Texas, I've been trying to find good Mexican food. this place is absolutely delicious and well priced. the hospitality and friendliness of the staff alone make this place quickly one of my favorites.“

“The BEST Mexican restaurant I have been to in the St. Louis area! The atmosphere is very cozy, unique and kinda Hip! The service is outstanding and the bartender we had, Wolfgang, was very personable, outgoing and got to know our names!! Who does that!?!? We got a table for eight within 15 minutes of having a drink at the bar! We will be back.“

“This place was amazing. They immediately sat our last minute party of twelve, the food was impeccable, and the service even better. Definitely recommend.“

“I was blown away! Not only are they open on Sundays, they have the tastiest, freshest chips and salsa I've ever tried. Enjoyed my shrimp chimichanga, as well as the rice and beans. Everything was wonderful. I'm recommending them to everybody.“
