A little out of the way, but well worth it.
The food was authentic and delicious.
Especially liked the homemade tortillas and the enchiladas rojo.
Will definitely come back here! -

Great little pit stop on our drive down South.
We went a little out of our way to stop here for lunch due to the Yelp reviews.
When we arrived, the place was busy. You can tell there are a lot of regulars. We were given menus and ordered at the counter. However, you pay when you leave.
The food tasted fresh and was not greasy or heavy. I had the enchiladas verde con pollo and my boyfriend had the taquitos. We enjoyed the food, although even the green sauce was a little too spicy for me. My boyfriend's taquitos were great and not too overly fried.
The lunch ended up being a little more pricey than I anticipated. The drinks were a little overpriced--I tried to order just a glass of ice water but I was brought a bottle. Even though the place is really informal and you order at the counter, you tip like you're eating at a restaurant. So, not ideal for a cheap lunch. -

First of all this place is only authentic Mexican food and cannot be beaten in that aspect. I have been coming here for close to 10 years. The family that runs the establishment is super nice and I actually went to high school with the son. Yes this place is a hole in the wall on the wrong side of town. That doesn't stop me from going there because they have plenty of cameras around the building and iv never felt like someone is going to rob me or break in my car. Not once has anyone ever tried to ask me for money or even approached me which I cannot say for any gas station or walmart. Now on to the food. I absolutely love the enchiladas verdes! That would be my first recommendation. The tomatillo sauce on the chicken enchiladas just makes it for me. It comes with rice and beans which are good too. I will usually get a mango drink or horchata with my meal. The tacos are really good too. I get steak with cilantro onions and cheese. You can never go wrong with those and just add some green salsa plus a squeeze of lime. If I don't get the enchiladas Verdes then I will get 4 steak tacos. This is the best and most authentic Mexican food I have ever had and probably ever will. Yes it is a hole in the wall but the service is great and the food is extraordinary. This would be the number 1 place I would recommend for anyone passing through Henderson.

So I'm from California where I grew up eating some of the best Mexican food there is!! I moved to NC 12 years ago, and have never found anything close to it. Until I found Thai little slice of heaven!! Best food in the state in my opinion. Hands down, great service food comes out quick. I have been here more than a dozen times and they have never made a mistake. The food is amazing. Tacos are amazing, my favorite. Tortillas are homemade. Chorizo and lengua
