Reviews for El Monarca in Goldsboro, NC
My daughter and I stopped in there for the first time last night, I don?t eat very much meat but I ate all my food! Sure did!... Had steak and chicken fajita with cheese sauce, man let me tell you it was so delicious I?m going back tonight and gettingdinner. I will return and recommend anyone to go there to get authentic food! I'm gonna say it again, delicious freshly-madefood. Read more
This is a no- go for me. I was hoping to find something close by my work place, but this was just terrible. Right at $10 spent... here, and it wasn?t even close to worth it. This is their taco Tuesday tacos. That isn?t a taco. I don?t know what to call it.Super small and definitely not worth it. The steak quesadilla is flavor less and just plain bad. The rice was absolutely secondday rice and not worth eating. I literally taste it and tossed it. The staff was helpful and nice which is why I?m giving 2stars but for the food, definitely pass on this location. Read more
Stopped in to find something vegan. Wonderful veggie fajitas and they made me a grilled veggie burrito. Was amazing. Only place... on Goldsboro that does not put red onion in the guacamole. So in love. Wll be back for sure Update. I have been back 4 timesand they never replicated that first meal. They put broccoli and water chestnuts in their fajitas and this last time the foodwas so bland we just left it on the table. Completely disappointed in this place now. Read more
Good food. Ok service. The place changes names about as much as my old lady changes her under-pants. I don't know why they keep... getting nailed by the ABC board, but you think they'd learn by now. Never have noticed a sanitation score posted, but the placeis always clean for the most part. I used to enjoy their salsa bar, but its been removed... Update: -2 stars from my lastreview. Service was minimal. Food is watered down. Portions are greatly reduced. Shown is the dollar taco... Patético! Read more
I had no idea what a burrito cho cho was when I ordered it but it's so good! It has beef and chicken and rice inside it. I... also got al pastor tacos and a beef quesadilla. Read more
After letting time slip away from me, I arrived here shortly after 9pm while they were closing. They were very kind to let me... order anyway, which made my day since I was craving authentic Mexican food and have been wanting to try the food here. Not onlydid they make the 3 tacos I wanted, but they also gave me chips and salsa. I?m so happy right now and I?m eating the food as Itype. It?s so good. I?ll definitely be back. Thank you so much!

Food here is excellent. Prices are fairly good. The eating area is fairly small but it's never really busy there. Only one... waitress seams to be working the area. They don't bring you a reciept to the table you just go to the counter to pay aftereating. Read more
So a few reviews said this place is authentic and I would have to disagree. The food is fresh and delicious but overall it... lacks flavor and there's no spiciness to anything we ordered. Maybe there's a special spicy request that needs to bemade? Highlights: - Beans and Rice were good - Generous portions - Affordable prices Drawbacks: - Poblano Relleno wasinedible. It tasted like burnt egg and frying oil. - Guacamole Salad was only a smashed avocado with no seasoning. I'lldefinitely be back because sometimes you just order the wrong thing. And the potential is definitely there. Read more
