Minero

Vegan / Vegetarian / Gf options! Was really excited to be able to order off the menu. I had a good Margarita and tried the Cauliflower and Crispy Tofu tacos both were delicious 👌 It's not gourmet/ best Mexican food you'll ever have but this place is exactly what it says. It's no frills, quick bites, reasonable prices! Service was great, extra plus!

Cool spot for some southern American style Mexican. Although it's not authentic Mexican it's still Mexican themed with a twist. The food was great. Hoppin John is a must try the Brocolli is done right. Michelada's are ok but it's hard to find a good one of those now a days. Mezcal margarita is worth a try as well. The queso fundido is quite good!

The taste of Oaxaca is there! The research and travel is in the kitchen. Their corn tortillas were signature and the rule to a great taco starts with its tortilla! Moist, thick and slightly spotted chard. It doesn't get better then that. My tecate was cold tall and well groomed with a ton of lime juice sea salt and bloody marry mix. It could of been my dessert alone but it this case it was my thirst buster and delicous meal shotgun. I ordered the pork carnitas, a little dry but I am all about the burnt ends anyways, all the slow cooker flavor is there. All of our ordered dishes were not salted down. I liked that. They indigenous flavoring was there for the taking. The tostada chips were $! Mixed with color cooking times and crisp at every bite. Not one stale or gummed from oil soaking. The guacamole was on the spot mashed out. No darken sitting color and without the fermenting tangyness. Bravo! Definitely a good eats must try. Stay consistent and this place will become a generational staple in Charleston.

This place was great! We went during the lunch hours. Greeted as soon as we got to the host stand. Our waitress was nice and seemed up beat and generally happy to be there, which is always a good sign. We had a couple questions and she answered knowledgeable and even gave us a recommendation of something that wasn't on the menu. Tacos were great and everything else paired really well. In terms of cost, it was fair $4-$6 per taco. They had a few other things on the menu as well. But if you're looking for a great experience and really good quality food for a decent price, this is a place you need to visit 👍🏼

Stumbled up the steps after seeing a margarita sign. Was worried why are why going up the first Mexican restaurant after leaving the museum. But this place was perfect. First the Margarita was one of the best I have had sailing all over Florida this winter on Dragon's Lairs big sail from Florida to Wisconsin. But then the food was just very elevated. Small portions for the tacos with huge flavor. My friend who got the burrito found it huge and couldn't finish it if your looking for a larger meal. Overall the menu is smallish but highly perfected. The Bartender was also a very proud citizen of the city and really answered a lot of questions and made us feel welcome for our late lunch!

Good Mexican is probably not what comes to mind when you of Charleston, but Minero can change that opinion for you. We all started out with some Margaritas and some appetizers. The spicy margarita is just spicy enough without going too far. Everything from the guac to queso to salsa were all excellent. The real crowd pleasers were the tacos. I ordered the Fried Catfish, Al Pastor, and the Carnitas. All of the lm were good but the catfish stood out above the rest. The catfish taco blended Charleston and Mexican cultures perfectly. Always a fun time at Minero!
