Loved everything! The fresh salsa w loads of cilantro was amazing mixed w the roasted spicy salsa in the bottle. The hubs got a michelada and it was the best one we have had outside of Mexico. The tacos….delish. highly recommend the campechano pincho style!

This is an awesome spot for authentic Mexican food in Charleston. Have a Michelada before you figure out your order, and I recommend trying a few tacos. My fave is the cochinita pibil, and as a meat eater it’s hard to admit my second fave is the nopales (cactus)!! The birria is fantastic. Do the al pastor. Maybe the campechano. And there’s so much more. This is the closest CHS gets to Mexico.

Downtown Charleston has been long overdue for a quality, traditional, and authentic Mexican spot. I had the pleasure of visiting El Pincho Taco today and was not disappointed. If you’re looking for the real deal, this is it. Enjoy the Torta de Pierna or order a couple of the various tacos they have. Be sure to put a little bit of the salsas on top for a true experience (about 5 different options from what I saw). You can wash it all down with one of the many different drink options. Horchata, Jamaica, Beer or a Margarita- whatever you want, they have. You will not be disappointed with their food or their service. Our meal was hot and ready within a few moments. Our server was very attentive. Keep in mind this is a small place so seating can be limited, but I believe that adds to the authentic experience.

Ordered from here on Uber Eats and have never felt more ripped off. These tacos are $5 apiece and they’re nearly empty. Paid $90 and got almost no food. They charged $10 for 3 ounces of spicy queso. And the food wasn’t even good. The meat had fat and cartilage in it.

Omar was our waiter this evening and he was super attentive and friendly; giving great suggestions and service! Great home style flavorful food. Would definitely recommend this spot for someone looking for an authentic “hole in the wall” experience.

The food was okay and the waitress was very rude. She did not bring the cups for the salsa we asked for and she brought me a cup of ice for water it had two things floating at the bottom and when I gave it back she didn’t even apologize or go get another one she then just began to ask if we were ready to order. When I asked her for a clean cup of water and the bowls for the salsa she brought she slammed them on the table upon returning. 10/10 do not recommend.

The red árbol chile was good,cabeza tacos meat was delicious, the place is very traditional,the food looks good, only a couple things: those corn tortillas were a little hard, I expected a good green sauce but it wasn’t, and one last thing you must check your bill and make sure there’s nothing “extra”.
