Los Cabos — Restaurant in Augusta

I grew up near the US / Mexico border. Since moving to Georgia, a decade ago, I've tried every Mexican restaurant in the CSRA. Few have satisfied my pallette for authentic Mexican food. Los Cabos is one of those few. Located in the heart of downtown, it is easy to locate, with ample parking in the back. Although not highly advertised, this restaurant has been serving Augusta for a very long time. I guarantee your food will always be made with the freshest of ingredients. The portions are generous, and the prices are surprisingly reasonable. Their menu has a wide variety, including all of the standard favorites, and standard authentic dishes, plus their own fabulous specialty dishes. They have a kids' menu, which includes American food options. There is a small bar, inside the restaurant, and they do serve liquor. However, the restaurant is definitely family oriented, and suitable, for all ages. There is a large, outside, covered patio area, which can accommodate small private parties, including the use of their excellent sound system, and DJ service. It's also a great place for couples, or individuals, to enjoy patio dining on a warm summer's day, although inside dining is always available. I once wandered in, solo, on Cinco de Mayo. The owner quickly approached me, and insisted I join a party taking place on the patio, where I enjoyed music, wholesome company, and free hors d'oeuvres. The restaurant is always clean. I usually sneak in the back door, to pick up my to-go order, right before closing time. Even with no customers, in the restaurant, employees can still be seen following appropriate sanitary procedures. This restaurant is locally owned and operated. It has been maintained, by the same owner, during all the years I've been dining here. I have found them to be very nice, down to earth, hard-working people, who will go out of their way, to cater to their customers. This is the only restaurant, in Augusta, who has always gotten my order correct. It is also the only restaurant, here, where no one has ever been rude to me, or made me feel obsolete. If you do a browser search, for this restaurant, and include the word 'menu,' in your search string, you can then click on 'images' results, to find photos, of their full menu. They currently accept cash, debit, credit, and mobile pay (I've never noticed if they take personal checks or not.)

Oh my goodness!!! We traveled down to visit a family member who was in the hospital. By the time we left the hospital and the rest of the family gathered together, it was after 8pm. We were tired from traveling and starving too. I went online, searching for somewhere that was open and could accommodate our crowd. Just happened upon this restaurant, remembering the building had housed Ming Wah's in the past. I'm originally from Augusta but haven't been around that area in years. The memories led me to stop by and try this place. We were definitely glad we did. Talk about good!! All of us ordered different items on the menu. Everything was wonderful and the service was excellent. Heck, the food was so delicious, I'd almost drive the hours just to eat there. Oh, the macho nachos were out of this world!! I'm drooling just thinking about them!! Super nice folks and they didn't mind our chatting and catching up on old times. We made more memories and are...

If you like laid-back casual dining this place gets a gold star. It's family owned, and they cook some good Mexican food and give good but laid back service. They bring the food out decently fast and bring you anything you ask for right away. I always feel right at home here, and you can see both business people and families relaxing here. They also do take away if you call in. I recommend their Pollo con Crema, which is a chicken in white cheese with rice and beans. They have a lot of great dishes, it's hard to go wrong here. If you like a snappy and fancy atmosphere this place isn't for you, but if you're like most Augustans and like to kick back and chill with your friends and family, this is a cozy and tasty place to do it. One of my personal top five comfort food restaurants...
