“My wife and I had dinner at the Charlotte location this evening. We had great service from our server Noah, who was very quick to take our drink order and provided attentive service for our entire dinner. We both ordered a Chimichangas (my wife had the chicken and I had the beef). Both were delicious, well seasoned and served hot. (fwiw) noted the staff were sweeping and cleaning the restaurant tables quickly, after a table turned.“

“"There is a divinity that shapes our ends, rough fray them as we may..." Wm. Shakespeare Divinity must certainly have been in play when I happened upon this amazing spot. The odds against me being there were long... I had just escaped from the Southern Christmas Show, had to walk as wife chose to stay and spend more money. I was headed to Lupie's for some sanity and good food (walk was longer than I remembered). To say I was disappointed when I found Lupie's closed (on Sundays) is an understatement to stay the least. Thought about breaking in, but reason got the best of me. Because I had walked, I knew I was limited to what I might find, but my hope in Karma was renewed when I looked across the street and saw something called "Tipsy Burro"...and they were open. I would have settled for a seven eleven at this point, but I was intrigued by the unique look of this place. My best hopes (and beliefs in divinity) were confirmed when I walked into this cheery looking place and was cheerily welcomed by the bartender...Keely was her name I later discovered. Before I could even order, I was dumbfounded by the music I was hearing...the best classic "authentic" Texas tunes one after another. I should disclose here that I am a bigot when it comes to my love of Texas country music, and there juke box had 'em all. To name a few... Guy Clark, Townes Van Zandt, Chris Knight, Robert Earl Keen, Hayes Carll, Ray Wyllie Hubbard, Stergil Simpson, etc. etc. etc. (and again, "thank you Jesus". Oh, I guess I should mention the food. By the time I was ready to eat, the rest of my family had left the Christmas show and showed up to join me for lunch. I would have settled for anything to hear that music, but fortunately the food was as good as the music. Authentic Tex/Mex in big portions. My whole family was happy happy. My young grand daughter loved it and was treated respectfully and gently, as all kids present were. Also have to mention that I could buy 4 beers here for what it cost for 1 at the Southern Christmas Show (Actual fact, not an exaggeration). I guess you figured by now that I will be back. I am the guy hunkered down over the jukebox pushing buttons. "May the road go on forever and the party never end." Guy Clark“

“Johnny Burrito is THE burrito spot of Charlotte. I work downtown and make it a habit of stopping in, usually on “Fireball Friday.”
The one negative is it typically has a line stretching down the hallway because the spot/food are so popular. The line moves quickly though and if you’re concerned try to get there when it opens at 11 (or 10:50 if you really want to beat the wait).

Vegetarian options: They have veggies and mushrooms as an option which you can swap for any meat on the burritos or salad bowls.“

“Went with a party of 8. I ordered basic ground beef tacos - the meat was very dry and unseasoned, but the shell and rice and beans were good. Everyone else seemed to love their food. The chips for salsa were SO good, but we never got refills on salsas. Guacamole was excellent but the oil on the chips was a turn off. Drinks were tasty. Food and drinks were pretty slow to come out.“
