6 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants near Clemson

“Awesome team that works here. Chris has done an excellent job creating a fun place to eat with friends family!“

“food is always FIRE and the environment is fun. We have had multiple foods and dips on multiple occasions. Tyler was our server but the staff really worked well together and made our time awesome.“

“This is the real deal in Mexican around here. It's in an old HoJo Resturant. so I'm not certain if that qualifies as high end Mexican, Classical Mexican, or Just Short of a Dive Mexican... but the place is clean and organized. Let's call it HoJo Mexican. We built a house just up the road. As we were building the place, we stopped by once or twice. Since then we have been numerous times and honestly each time the place has been better. Once during a fishing tournament they got absolutely slammed and had a tough time getting the food out, but they sprung for some free margaritas so all was forgiven. The folks who work here are seriously hard workers. The lady who owns it works harder than anyone I have ever seen in a Resturant. Their cooks are great. Everything is prepared after you order and it's done in a very reasonable amount of time (unless there is a major fishing tournament, LOL). The food is great. I've tried everything I can think of on the menu that I would remotely enjoy and it's all good. They can make anything you would like, and to be honest my wife and I often simply order a couple of soft tacos, chicken, with sliced avocados. The chips are some of th best I have had anywhere. Freshly cooked, thin, super crispy. Same for the salsa, excellent. They have regular and spicy. Neither is too hot for me. I like hot, but don't care for painfully hot. Oh don't forget that they have a full bar... They have Margaritas of all sorts... and then they have Texas Margaritas. As best as I can figure, that is equivalent to a "loaded" Margarita. They are good. The menu includes beer, tequilas, and whiskeys. I suspect that they can make whatever you want, but suffice it to say that if you are there for Mexican and want an appropriate drink... it's available.“

“So lucky to live so close! Their carnitas are delicious! Pico de gallo is fresh & flavorful. Rice & beans are good. Amazing salsa! 😋 Servers, hostesses & bartenders are amazing. I don’t drink but like bar seating & the woman working it was phenomenal. Attentive, friendly, and they had SportsCenter on TV, bonus points! Decor is beautiful, very clean and very well kept restaurant. My new fave spot!“

“Wow!! We arrived late to the restaurant, was told it would be a wait for food. The service was amazing, the food was a bit of a wait, but after such a beautiful day at the lake, the restaurant was very busy. We appreciated the hospitality and kindness of the staff. Our food came out hot, even though we had to wait. The staff set the appropriate expectations, as we overheard similar conversations.

Way to go Keowee Shores (tiki hut) keep up the great work.“

“The food, atmosphere and service were great today! The two guys working were funny and made my husband and I an awesome salad and bowl! Delicious!“
