ALYSSA C. was a fantastic server. She suggested foods that turned out to be awesome... And her drink suggestions turned out to be a perfect compliment to the food.
Next time that I visit Mex 1, I'm bringing friends.
Thank you Alyssa!!!!

Visiting from Lexington, SC and stopped for lunch. The food is delicious, the service was excellent and the atmosphere is perfect. Althea took care of us and we will ask for her next visit. She was efficient, personable and knowledgeable about the menu. I highly recommend Mex 1 Coastal Cantina. Perfect setting for families, couples or if you are just wanting to sit at the bar and have a drink. Picture of fajitas with chicken.
