Neat little restaurant. We'd been hearing about it forever and had the opportunity to stop in. Good prices and excellent food and the staff was very nice. Had the queso and chicken fajitas. Will return.

In Leland we only have 2 Mexican restaurants. Chingon is definitely my 1st pick. Don’t get me wrong, I like the other place too. But tonight was the birthday girls choice. You get plenty of food for the price. The margaritas are delicious as well. I do love the atmosphere. The music is a little loud for me. I had a hard time hearing, but that could just be me. They are on top of everything for sure. From ordering, cleanliness, delicious food, beverages & the wait staff. Definitely worth checking out, if you haven’t already.

My favorite Mexican place to eat the food is always well. Seasoned very delicious, always hot and fresh. Some restaurants provide steak but when they do it has an aftertaste because they just warm it up and it has been sitting for so long. This restaurant provides fresh steak every time you order. Your meat does not just sit in a hot bar. You have fresh food. The drinks are always delicious. I'll always get the melon drink. The beans are even seasoned. This is my favorite place. San Felipe, disgusting compared to this and dark.

This place has some of the best tacos I've had in North Carolina. The service was great and I loved having my meal on an actual plate. The homemade tacos were over the top. It was refreshing to have someone's abuela in there making them too.

Locally owned and delicious. A feeling of authentic that you won't get at most similar style locations. Though the music sometimes could use a bit of lower volume (a nitpick of mine), the restaurant is relaxing, homey, and comfortable. The food is extremely delicious with their meticulously cooked meat selections and dish styles. You can tell their effort and care for the food is real. Stop on by if you want a filling authentic bite from south the border.

I went on 5/25 and got a to go order and when I went to eat it it was much later due to my schedule and it was incorrect but they were already closed, so I went back in on 5/26 and they remade it for me and were so nice about it. The staff is so friendly and so sweet! I have never had anything bad there but the taquitos chingones are amazing!! Highly recommend!!
