20 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants in Charlotte

“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.“

“Good food. Environment all right.“

“The service was truly outstanding! Although the guacamole arrived a bit late, the owner or manager (I’m not sure of his exact title) was incredibly generous and didn’t charge us for it or the extra tortillas. The steak quesadillas are a must-try – I highly recommend them!“

“Great local place! Love the live music, and the cool vibe. The kickass curated decor is dope af. Food is now fantastic!! Best quesadillas in town yo. The regulars & owners are the best part — oh and the food.“

“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.“

“Really great place to eat and flavors omg. This is the best service and food for Tex mex I have had since being in Reno Nevada“

“The service was fast and everyone was friendly. And let’s not forget the food was delicious and hot.“

“A great brunch with some of the best tortillas I’ve had.“

“Tomatillo salsa, chorizo queso, guacamole, and steak fajitas are incredible. If you're getting enchilada, add the fried egg. If your server is Katie, you're in for a treat with how on the ball and enthusiastic she is. Very knowledgeable about the menu and refills your drink before you have to ask.“

“Wayne was an INCREDIBLE server. He went above and beyond and ensure our experience was great, he was so friendly, and remembered our names which was so nice and felt so personal! He ensured our food was delicious and timely. Will definitely be back, but only to sit in Wayne’s section!“

“10/10/10 across the board! I drove from Fort Mill after quickly researching which Chili’s is THE BEST near my area. This location had the most recent positive reviews so I said a prayer and took the chance. lol. I’m pretty particular so I promise, you can trust me when I tell you; my experience was exceptional! Sky was on point and shout out to the cook (April.) THANK YOU, my food came out super fresh/super HOT just like I like it! PLEASE keep up the great work. Exceptional service and quality food is extremely hard to find these days.“

“The food is amazing and the staff is the best!! They are so nice and outgoing. I would come here every week if I could!“

“Love the new and improved restaurant! So glad they were able to keep the original recipes and original vibes in a larger location.“

“went to eat here at 730 pm on a Wed. walked in, the lady came up to us ( only 2 of us) and tells us there is going to be a 20 minute wait, when the resturant was over half empty. plenty of seats and tables near the bar ,but there was a 20 minute wait. why? makes no sense at all... dont waste your time going here ,doesnt seem like they wanna serve anyone I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS LOCATION“

“Slow to start with the service but I enjoyed the food and music with a nice atmosphere. Chose to sit outside and it was a great choice to see the Charlotte life while I ate.

I got the Chicken Adobo soft tacos. Tasted amazing and I’ll be back. I had plenty of times to walk past here and smell the amazingly fresh food. Decided to eat here and it did not disappoint.

Parking: Plenty of parking but slightly shared. Never had an issue with getting a spot for lunch time.“

“Vegas Baby Vegas was the best taco I’ve ever had!“

“Very nice people attending“

“Food was absolutely delicious! The restaurant is nice , clean and service was great ! Definitely recommend!“

“No matter what’s going on in my life taking a trip to Moe’s is always a good experience between the manager that’s on staff and my favorite staff people that are working on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Mondays they always make sure that they cater to me crack jokes, and ask about life updates. These guys are practically my friends and no they did not hold me at gunpoint to write this. I blink twice. lol“
