“Cannot say enough amazing things about this resturant. Prices are more than reasonable. You can get a full large meal under $10 with a drink chips and salsa, which is rare nowadays. It is always, always delicious. The staff are friendly and work hard. Always so nice over the phone. Never forget anything out of my order and I go there a LOT. Love this place. I have been going there my whole life and hope they stay there forever. If you are new to the area. GO GET SOME!Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly atmosphere“
“Went to the drive thru. There was a lot of confusion because there was something going on because there was 4 police cars in the lot, and several people surrounded but the staff did their job. My order was out quickly, it was hot and the staff talked with me and my dog instead of watching outside. Keep up the good work Nitro WV Taco Bell!“
“This place is on point! The salsa is legit, lots of fresh cilantro flavor. The El Patron burrito is massive and delicious. Service was super fast and friendly, They keep the place clean and clearly care about being an awesome restaurant! I will definitely be back very soon.“
“Looked like a fancy Mexican restaurant from the outside and smelled good. The white sauce with the chip reminded me of a yum yum sauce from a Asian restaurant. The red salsa was nice. I got the enchiladas Supreme, way to much food more me and very cheesy. Next time I'd hold the cheese. Overall the service was good and friendly. Wish I would have went to the fajitas.“
“We recommend the white dip and the cameron locos.Vegetarian options: You can get anything here and just minus the meat. But they do cook separate for these menu optionsKid-friendliness: Bar is separate from other areas to have childrenWheelchair accessibility: Very wide and open floor plan“
“This is my Partner and I’s favorite Mexican spot. They have great food and the Texas margaritas in jumbo size are amazing. It’s nice to be able to communicate in Spanish too if you need to. All the staff does an amazing job checking up on you. Highly recommend! Also the Mexican street asada tacos requested with no cheese are amazing they’re authentic Mexican if you request it with no cheese. Favorite item on the menu!“
“Probably tge best meal I've ever had in a Mexican restaurant. Food was delicious and portions were huge. Two of us could have easily been filled with one entre. The waiter was fantastic. All around, nothing could have been improved upon.“
“This is by far our favorite Mexican restaurant! They have had off for a family vacation for the past week and we were counting down the days to visit again and get our fix! Service is always fast and friendly. Tonight we had a big party ahead of us and still didn't even wait long for a table... They were packed!Tonight I went for something different and had the fajitas with chicken and steak. That's something easy to do low carb and not eat the flour tortillas that come with it. My husband has the Arroz con Pollo and my daughter had a side of grilled chicken with cheese dip and rice from my plate. Everything tasted great but I'm going for my usual next time... I missed my grilled chicken and cheese! Lol“
“We were on the highway at 9:00 and didn't want fast food. Luckily, we found Las Trancas is open until 10:30! The chips and salsa are very good. I have the Enchiladas Mer y Terra (could of misspelled) which was three different enchiladas. One shrimp with crab, one potato, and one beef. This was a good dish. I didn't love the potato one but I would order the shrimp and crab enchiladas all alone! Hubs had a plate of three chicken tacos. We each had a soda and our bill was under $25! That almost never happened anymore. Next time I travel through I will remember this place.“
“The food was absolutely delicious! The prices are very fair considering the amount of food you receive. Our order was prepared quickly and arrived hot and delicious. The interactions with staff was great. Our experience was very positive and I’d highly recommend.“
“I don't normally leave reviews but since this a much needed new restaurant on the Kanawha River and the only other review was so far from our experience I felt obligated. This is my 2nd visit in a week 1st visit was by myself out on the deck, great view of the river, server was very professional, burritos were great and about twice as much food as I could eat, I didn't read the receipt, but felt my meal was well worth what I paid. Came back tonight with the wife, gave her the tour. Nice new, clean dining areas, excellent bar with 2 bartenders, nice little lounge area, got a donkey you can try your cowboy skills on, little dance floor maybe for future use? Outside deck area is going to be the hotspot this summer, huge overlooking deck on the river, boat dock to hold several boats, tiki bar, Our meal tonight, shrimp and rice dish was awesome! my steak was a little more done then I liked, I was honest when the waiter ask how was everything, he apologized and offered to replace, I was already full so I got a doggie bag. No big deal. Place was not overly busy, but all our neighbors were happy and giving compliments to our waiter. We knew him from another popular Mexican restaurant in the area. So if you want to ensure a great experience request Jose Rodriguez to entertain you“
“Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free ?.Tortilla Quesedills! I've only made them at ? but surprisingly, I found they offered this as an appetizer option! ❤️ I enjoyed the atmosphere. The staff was Welcoming and Knowledgeable regarding my Gluten-Free diet restrictions. They took the time to go thru thier menu with available options that fit my tastes as well as ensure I enjoyed my food without any incident! Excellent 1st time take out experience!“
“Very quick, food was hearty, authentic mexican. The meat was thick and seasoned, not a lot of rice or beans as filler, hence "authentic". Tasted fantastic, no complaints at all. Got two burritos (chicken/steak) along with beef nachos. The beef nachos are very simple, just the nachos, beef, and cheese, corn chips, I imagine you can order other toppings, we didn't ask for them. Very filling, delicious.“
“Exceptional modern take on Mexican. You can find traditional Mexican special ties. The star attraction however are a wide range of street tacos. You can do 3 for $14. My favorites include Birria, barbacoa, shrimp, fish and tongs chicken. Atmosphere is sports bar, but not too much noise to distract.“
