La Cuata - Goldsboro

This small Mexican restaurant serves delicious food, with particularly excellent tortillas. It's definitely worth a visit, although it could have been even better if they offered chips and salsa. I would have given it 5 stars if they had.

After seeing the other 5 star reviews, I really wanted to like this place. I'm all about hole in the wall authentic Mexican restaurants, but... Walking into this establishment I noticed about 10 tables with one customer seated. All the tables were stacked with dirty dishes except for an uncleaned table directly under their TV. Because of the 7 other 5 star reviews I decided to suck it up. I proceeded to go ahead and order my 3 Carne tacos. When handed my tacos, I dug in after applying some of their hot sauce. My first bite was a lot of crunchy black gristle from an uncleaned grill. Upon inspection of my tacos, they were all mixed with a lot of this black crunchy gristle. I was so disappointed... I sat their picking out what little edible Carne I could find, paid and left still hungry. One of my worst dining experiences to date.

Amazing authentic Mexican food. The gorditas are my favorite. Language barrier with staff but they are very easy to work with! Great business. Highly recommend.

My husband and I tried this restaurant for the first time the other day for lunch. It is a cozy, authentic spot that is far from upscale. We both opted for the Carne Asada dish, which was served with rice, beans, salad, and tortillas. It was delicious and priced well at $8.50. We will definitely be returning to this place in the future!

Great authentic place. We were driving from NYC to Florida and stopped for dinner. Food is delicious and service is great. Worth going out of your way for a few miles
