Wasn't sure at first about this place. We decided to try it. We had a great experience. The staff is very professional and kind. Their food was great. Will visit again when in the area.

Everything was phenomenal, except for the avocado which I will post. I havent ever had this place but I will definitely be going back.

We decided to try a little Mexican restaurant we discovered while in Locust a few weeks ago, Mi Fuente Family Mexican Restaurant. Driving from Charlotte to get there didn’t take all that long since we were on the outskirts of Mint Hill. From the outside it looks somewhat run down, and could use a little love. Once inside we were met with a hostess who was wiping down the menus with a very strong sanitizer – it made me cough, but I was glad she was doing that. She, as well as the other servers and staff, were wearing masks. We were seated in a small room off of the main dining area. They did have tables and booths marked off for social distancing. It is still such a small room, and two couples came in not wearing masks, which made us cringe. We are in the high risk groups and so were those two couples, so we were wondering why they weren’t wearing a mask. We were seated in this small room first and it was nice and quiet, but once others were seated there, it became loud and very noisy. The chips came out first and the salsa was in small carry out containers. The salsa was not the best I’ve ever had, but certainly not the worst either. There was some flavor, but it was not spicy and certainly freshly made. I ordered the make your own combination with one taco and one enchilada, which came with rice and refried beans. My husband ordered the small shrimp fajitas, which also came with rice and beans. My dish was what you would get at any little Mexican restaurant anywhere around Charlotte, Mint Hill, Matthews… I loved the cheese on my taco, but the meat was cold and had it not been for the cheese, there would be no flavor. The rice was good and the enchilada was typical of these small Mexican restaurants. My husband’s fajitas came on the same plate as his rice and beans and just with the salad part and sour cream – no Pico de gallo or guacamole. It didn’t come out sizzling on a little hot skillet and he said he would not get it again. We didn’t get refills on our drinks until we were finished eating and my husband’s lemonade had something black floating around in the glass so he didn’t drink his only refill. Not a total loss, though, as we stopped at Wal-Mart on the way home and did a little shopping. Sorry Mi Fuente, we won’t be back.
