Now I should’ve known better before I came here, but I am getting my tires serviced at Costco so I decided to walk on over here for a Chili Relleno and a margarita.. I asked for one thing I got something completely opposite.
They decided they wanted to debate with me about what a chili Relleno is if you call yourself a Mexican restaurant and you’re offering something called a chili Relleno or chili plabano then you give them a chili relleno.
Not switching up custom Mexican names and terms and make up your own names for things when people from all over the country visit your restaurant and want to get exactly what they want.
Chili Relleno should be the exact same thing since it’s a stuffed chili with cheese.
Below you will find what a proper chili relleno should look like across-the-board by anyone calling themselves a Mexican restaurant.
The offer a Chili Plabano as well and you can see in the pictures from Google they’re the exact same things so this restaurant is absolutely wrong for offering something called a chili Relleno that was literally just bean dip with no chilies. so I got a plate of beans and rice and beans horrible experience!
To add to the horrible experience the cashier was a complete idiot. She had no idea about Mexican culture and exactly what the real meaning of terminologies are at all. It’s completely sad this restaurant is offering South Carolina this mess and calling it Mexican food. In no part of Mexico is this acceptable and they need to step their game up.

Update: they finally dropped the large queso price (which was like $9 before, ridiculous) on uber eats but now the delivery fee is as much as food.
Always love this place but why is uber eats going to this location & not the one close to me? Causing drivers to cancel & my food cold...if it comes at all. Yall need to call uber eats & get straight bro!

Waiter couldn’t understand us. Brought me the wrong drink. There were Six of us at the table but separate tabs. We were charged a “large party “ tip because we had six people at the table even though we all had separate checks. My small meal cost me a 9.00 dollar tip

Some friends and I stopped in for lunch and margaritas. Everything and everyone's purpose was fulfilled during our experience. Food, drink, and our server Carlos. I didn't get any pics of the food because I was hungry. 😂😂
