“ Ordered takeout tonight and was pleasantly surprised. You can customize your meal choices (omit lettuce, onion, add cheese, tomato, etc). My husband and I were a bit hesitant when our order arrived because we customized them but they got it exactly right. I ordered the fajita burrito with chicken. I was planning on only eating half but it's so good I'm going back for the rest. They added fresh grilled peppers and sautéed chicken strips. It's really good Ya'll! Chips are fresh and not stale which I appreciate. ”
“ first time eating here today with my husband--10/10 would recommend! the birria tacos (quesabirrias) were absolutely amazing! I don't know if I can order anything else on the menu now! The restaurant itself is so clean and nice! This will def be our new spot! ”
“ Was heading to nearby place and saw this and decided to give it a try. i Really enjoyed my lunch and had no issues w service like some other reviews, but could see it happening w only 1 person serving tables that seemed fluent in english. chili reyenos were the first I have had in Wilmington that were like ones in Mexico...stuffed w cheese, battered and fried and tasty red sauce. A little pricy for lunch, but this was a lot bigger plate than most other places. 3 Chili's, rice and small "salad" that even had 2 slices of fresh avocado. a big lunch with fresh salsa and chips made it worth it to me. will certainly head back. Hope service will hold up.... ”
“ This spot is so cute! I saw them on their Instagram page and wanted to try them out. The Decour is darling, bright, cheerful, fresh and clean. Our server was such a sweetheart and gave us great recommendations. Had the taco de lengua, Barbacoa, and fish tacos. My friend had the flautas with beans and rice. They served three different kinds of salsa as a smoky Chile de árbol, A green guacamole salsa That was medium in spice and in mild red salsa. All were really good! I saw the review about the person and the bad service. We did not have any of that experience. We found the staff to be super helpful, offered great recommendations, attentive and reasonably priced. I really like this place! Looking forward to going back! ”
