Mexican Restaurants near Mount Holly

“Went on Cinco de Mayo so it was busy but they had a great system for managing carry out orders so it didn't interfere with the dine in customer. I was seated immediately. Everything was great, especially the salsa. I've been looking for a good Mexican restaurant on this side of town. I'll definitely return.“

“They were great I accidentally ordered at the wrong restaurant and I spent my last couple dollars and they helped me out they made my order and the manager was super helpful next time I'm in the area I'll stop and pay it forward the managers name was che and she was so nice and helpful“

“Anita’s has great fajita nachos and fajitas! The chips are really crispy, and the price is affordable, and the portions are really big. The seven of us had more than enough food sharing 4 things: fajita nachos, dinner sized fajitas, eggs+chorizo, chicken quesadilla. Service is fast and the workers are nice. Sadly there is not enough seats for how popular it is, but it’s a great place to stop by for lunch during a road trip:)“

“What an eclectic atmosphere! From first walking in, to the service to the food, we were actually glad we went out for dinner! Not your run of the mill Mexican but rather fresh, Cal-Mex style. Gloria was an attentive server and kept all our drinks filled and chips as needed.
Would definitely recommend and return!“

“My husband and I went for lunch today and the food & service were absolutely incredible. 10/10 recommend!“

“Our server, Yael; at Taco Boy was amazing. She was so efficient, super attentive, and just carried herself so well the entire time. Everything came out right, she stayed on top of refills, and she handled everything without ever seeming stressed. You can tell she’s really good at what she does. She made the whole vibe even better — 10/10 service.“

“Agave has recently become our most favorite Mexican restaurant of all time. The first taste of the house Salsa and we were already starting to be hooked. Then the food came and blew us away. Everything we've had there has been exceptionally good. It doesn't just end there though. The staff is the sweetest and most personable staff of any restaurant I've been to in a long time. They make you feel at home and like family, and we are already starting an amazing friendship with them! If you were ever on the fence about checking this place out, let this review be a sign that it's time to go!!! You won't be disappointed!!!“

“Came on a Tuesday for tacos. Got steak and pork with pineapples. These are best tacos I’ve ever had in my life!!! Full of flavor and so much meat I had to eat with a fork. Highly recommend this little food truck. It’s parked in front of the store. I will probably come here 2 to 3 times per week now.“

“good food and good price“

“Delicious food, friendly staff and fast service. Reasonable prices.“

“If happiness had a smell, it would be the front door of Tres Pesos Bar & Grill.
I walked in hungry. I left spiritually healed… and 97% taco.
Let’s start with what matters most: I love tacos. It’s my favorite food. Not “oh tacos are cool” love. I mean if tacos had a fan club, I’d be the president, treasurer, and head of security. And Tres Pesos? They understood the assignment like my life depended on it.
The tacos weren’t just good — they were “cancel your plans and reevaluate your priorities” good. The tortillas? Warm. The meat? Seasoned like it went to therapy and worked through its issues. The salsa? Spicy enough to make you question your choices but not your existence. Every bite felt like a hug from someone who also roasts you lovingly.
Now let’s talk dark humor for a second. I ordered “just a few tacos.” That was a lie. The table looked like I was preparing for a small fiesta or a very organized emotional breakdown. Zero regrets. If loving tacos is wrong, I don’t want to be right. I would absolutely trust Tres Pesos to cater my birthday, my retirement, and possibly my last meal request (in a totally dramatic but still positive way).
The vibe? Relaxed, welcoming, and just chaotic enough to feel alive. It’s the kind of place where you laugh loud, eat messy, and don’t judge anyone for ordering “one more round” of tacos. Or three. Hypothetically.
Service was on point. Friendly, quick, and didn’t blink when I clearly ordered like a man who hadn’t seen food in weeks. Respect.
Final verdict:
Tres Pesos Bar & Grill didn’t just serve tacos. They delivered joy wrapped in tortillas. I came for dinner. I left considering a loyalty tattoo.
If you need me, I’ll be back there… conducting very serious taco research. 🌮“

“Their food is amazing and great customer service. Tacos are fire 🔥 Highly Recommend“

“These folks know how to make the very best Mexican essentials!!! The best Taco Truck in Gaston County. I will only eat food from TAQUERIA LOS LARA. Keep up the great work!!!“

“Excelente todo recién preparado“

“It's a taco truck. Not in the best neighborhood. Right next to the airport with planes flying overhead. If you go into it with that in mind, you can focus on the food. If you focus on the food, it'll be one of the best and actually authentic Mexican food that you'll find in Charlotte.“

“buen servicio la atencion es amigable“

“I went for some homemade tortillas and they gave me free samples of other things they sell. The guacamole and all of the salsas are excellent and the prices are fair! These Latinos are very nice and helpful people who are hard working members of our society and we should all support this business.“

“Food was delicious 😋 very satisfying“

“In town for the acc tournament. Wife wanted tacos. This place was right by our hotel. Food is good but customer service is amazing.
