Now you're talking! We Really enjoyed this Mexican restaurant with enormous margaritas and fresh flavors!
Since we moved to Charleston two years ago from Colorado, we've been searching for good Mexican food and this is, to date, the best we've found. Not as many "combos" on the menu, but a lot of the tried and true favorites.
Definitely worth the trip!
This is a very good option for closer-to-authentic Mexican food. They used to serve menudo, but no longer do. They have redone there menu as well. The portions are large and things like Mexican street corn and a cheesesteak burrito are available. It has gone outside of traditional Mexican food which is still good, but I like the deep culturally traditional food. The salsa that comes with the chips is fresh and taste great. The China and plates are of quality. The service is bilingual, attentive, polite and clean. A uniform exist but some wear it and some don’t. The air conditioning is in the norm. The parking is good but could be larger. I’m happy with the place and have come here for years. It’s better then other Mexican restaurants and close to a Spanish area of Hanahan and North Charleston. It is worth a visit I assure you
Sofia was really great. Attentive. Food came out freaky fast and absolutely delicious. Highly recommended
Service was slow but friendly. Food was good but a bit salty, and I love salt. Overall a typical Mexican restaurant. Nothing special.
On our way home from the beach and this restaurant was so amazing!! Go check it out!

This has been my favorite authentic Mexican eatery in the area since about 2014; I tell all my friends about it! I've had their tacos, quesadillas, enchiladas, tostadas... pretty much everything I've ordered has been delicious, though the enchiladas are my go-to. The chips are also super fresh and delicious, which is very dangerous because I am not immune to the addictiveness of chips and salsa (or their awesome guac) and I have to pace myself so I don't get too stuffed before I get my meal. Service is always prompt even when they're busy and our servers are always awesome.
Dropped in today with my client for a quick lunch and we both ordered the crazy beef taco salad. It was fantastic.
Left with a full belly and slipped into a foodie coma. (No I didn’t enjoy any margaritas).
With all this cold weather, I was happy to enjoy a hot meal but healthy bc it was a salad. ROFL!
So good!
Absolutely brilliant food! My buddy and I work near this restaurant and it's always our go to for lunch! I've never had an order be messed up or my food come out bad. I've nothing but great things to say! I recommend that everyone try this place out, you will not regret it! Thank you La Nortena!
Good food and Service. Dining atmosphere was good also. The negative is the Prices on the menu. Just to much for servings. Prices comparable to a high end Steak House in my opinion. Check them out, I'd recommend them if Price isn't a big concern.
Great place to enjoy some tasty seafood made with a Mexican twist. The flavors pop and the freshness is evident with each bite! It's a small, casual place in a strip mall. The service was spot-on, we never had to wait long when we needed something. It is my son-in-law's fave spot in Charleston - I hope to be back soon!
Absence of physical menus was difficult and led to some issues correctly getting our desired order placed, but once it was brought out, just WOW. I’m from Texas and never expected Me Ivan to taste this good in SC! Bravo to the family making great food here
It was a pleasure to eat here! 100% of all staff interactions were very nice, definitely felt welcomed and appreciated. Flavors were great, the portions were big, I had leftovers for midnight snacking!
No wait time and friendly staff. However the food wasn’t as “authentic” as other reviews stated. I personally found my tacos slightly bland and have had better Mexican food in the area. The queso and the salsa were pretty good though.
The service, food and atmosphere were all most excellent. Everyone was nice and experienced and the food was great! Couldn't have asked for more and, wouldn't change a thing.
Food was amazing! I love they offer several types of salsa to try when they bring the chips out. The food was delicious but the street corn was AMAZING! Everything came out quickly, the staff was friendly and very helpful! Will be visiting again!
The menu is surprisingly diverse, great for picky eaters. Everything from whole tilapia to build-your-own-sandwich. I ordered a cheesy chicken and was not disappointed. The seats are comfortable, the bathrooms are clean, and they have sports on all the TV's.
They were set up COVID-19 ready. Enter and exit only doors. We used our phones to take a picture of the scan bar to access the menu, so no menus to wipe and sanitize or even paper menus. Server's had face masks not all were wearing them properly. Our meal was good, not great. We had burritos, one was dry and inconsistent flavor throughout. Cream of chicken was good. Didn't use the bathroom. Restaurant was very clean, arrows on the floor to lead the way. Social distancing at the booths and tables. Service was very good.
