I love the atmosphere here! The decor (new lights) murals, colors, and music set the perfect vibe to enjoy some great Mexican food! The servers are always so attentive and kind. We come in frequently!

I ate lunch here and was very happy with everything. The staff was incredibly welcoming. I asked if the salsa verde was made fresh or was from the bottle and they were happy to share they make it fresh! It had a perfect blend of ingredients including onion which complimented the slight heat.
For my meal, I chose the carne asada which is the skirt steak (not the tacos) and is the standard in which I base my opinion on all my Mexican restaurants. It came out quick and everything was made fresh. It tasted great and wasn’t overcooked like some places do. What I liked about it was that it included a piece of nopal (prickly pear cactus) which was also delicious.
All in all, I really enjoyed the meal, the atmosphere, and the service. This made my top 5 list for best asada. 5/5 would recommend.

I had dinner at El Vallarta in Waxhaw, and the food was outstanding. We sat at the bar and ordered a margarita, and the chips and salsa came out quickly. For an appetizer, I highly recommend the corn ribs. It was very unique and it was delicious. For my meal, I had the carnitas and the pork was so good. My only minor disappointment was that there was no bartender, so it was slow to get drinks. If you are looking for good Mexican food, El Vallarta is a great place to eat.

Ordered togo and wow… the food was terribly bland. The only thing that had any flavor was the bell pepper itself which of course tasted like a bell pepper. The chicken, cheese, pork, the beans, rice everything was completely flavorless. Very bizarre. Super disappointed. I generally try to leave positive reviews but after hours of debating I really felt the need to review. The management needs to look at their spices, even consider using salt? The chips were literally without a single grain of salt. Just.. wow

Service was great very attentive staff. Went for my son’s bday dinner as usual and everyone was happy. If you have a picky eater know that the hamburger and fries were even good!

We have a great experience every time we go to El Vallarta (which is often). The food is always cooked to our liking and the service is fantastic. As soon as we sit down, they are dropping off chips and salsa for our table. They are also very reasonably priced.

My husband is a native North Carolinian and even a native “Waxonian”; he retired in ’09 after 32 years of active service in the USAF and we live on family property seven miles south of Waxhaw. When he went to school in Waxhaw the school house had all 12 grades.
We have never had a bad experience at El Vallarta and we eat there or get takeout on a regular basis. In my opinion they have the best carne asada tortas in N.C., but every meal on the menu is perfect.
The service is always perfect as well; we’re there often enough that the waitresses recognize us and we recognize them. It’s like greeting friends.
My husband has remarked frequently that when he entered the AF at age 21 he never dreamed that Waxhaw would have a Mexican restaurant in it when he retired 32 years later.

We found OUR Mexican spot!!!
After trying the “others” in town we decided to try the closest Mexican restaurant. The salsa was good not to spicy. The fajitas were amazing and seasoned very well. The vegetables were cooked which never seems to be the case. I got the burritos with green sauce. It was a little acidic and different. But so sooo good.Everything was delicious. Thank you for making our dinner great!!
12/10 do recommend

From fresh made guacamole to sizzling fajitas, every dish hits the mark. The service? Fast, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. The vibe is lively yet cozy—perfect for families, date nights, or casual hangouts. Great portions, great prices, and killer margaritas.
This place is a local gem! Don’t miss it.
