I really liked my dinner here while on a road trip with my dad. Food was delicious with generous portions and the staff was friendly and attentive. The spicy Marg I had was also really good! Hopefully I can dine here again! (btw-im vegetarian and they were totally accommodating).

They have a great menu. I had street tacos, 2 carnitas (a little dry), and 2 asada, which were kinda tough and grizzly. I like that they serve cucumbers as a side. The salsa that comes tortilla chips is watery. The Chile toreados were cooked perfectly and very good. Service was great and I'll definitely be back.

waiter was great, food was pretty good, no complaints here , but atmosphere needed a little sprucing up, dark old ceiling fans and not built for larger parties

Pretty standard Mexican food. It can get busy during lunch, it is right next to a highway so lunch time is pretty popular with people who work nearby especially Spanish speakers. I never seen the dining area full though. Even though it has no frills, I think it is little bit cheaper than Mi pueblo or other more popular Mexican restaurant nearby.

I would get torta or quesadilla, then you have a quick and delicious lunch.

We stopped here for lunch and we don’t regret it at all! The family enjoyed all the meals we ordered. We were a large group including kids and a dog and they were able to accommodate us outside. Service was amazing and the food was delicious! Fair price for the amount of food served!

We went to eat at this restaurant and I'm not really complaining, but I feel like they should have a sign with the objections they have for their charges and they should also remove the tip added to the ticket, since the waitress who gave me that tip Once, they did not serve us well since they do not work for tips and it is already added to the receipt.
They were eating and talking with their co-workers at the bar...
I do not recommend a place like this, I feel that the client should be a priority and serve them well so that they earn a good tip....

My wife and I dined at Tacontento recently, and we loved it! We had a chicken quesadilla and cheese dip. The food was delicious and the service was very good. Win win

Old style Mexican restaurant that has great prices and generous portions. The staff was friendly and informative and the food was good. They don't have any Miller Beer products available, but about 4 different kinds of Modelo...so I had water. I choose the ACP, or something like that, which was a choice of protein over rice, with cheese and a side of lettuce and tomatoes. I selected beef, chicken and shrimp as my protein and each was cooked perfectly. The outside of the building doesn't look like much, but the food was exactly what I needed after a long day of travel.

It's surprising what you can find in out of the way places. If you're passing through Statesville, NC this is absolutely the BEST burrito that I have ever had. Homey Mexican atmosphere and friendly service and the food is to die for. Highly recommended!



Parking: Easy pull in and out off of Hwy 70.

Since moving from Houston 2 years ago this is the best Mexican restaurant I have been to in terms of taste and authenticity.

The service was very bad, the two waiters were very unfriendly, they were not helpful, they only work for the money, they should take a customer service course.

I stopped here for lunch and the food, drinks, service, atmosphere was impeccable. I ordered the Fiesta Tacontento and a Long Island Ice Tea. This place is definitely worth a visit. It’s my new favorite spot. Can’t wait to go back again!!
