Quick info
About Cuernos Chuecos
On the Bessemer Super Highway, Cuernos Chuecos is a Mexican restaurant with a menu of ten dishes. Tacos and Pollo a La Plancha anchor the offerings, alongside burritos filled with meat, rice, beans, lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese. The restaurant takes walk-ins rather than reservations, and tables are served by waitstaff, though reaching the counter for a refill or the check sometimes takes a raised hand or a call across the room. The straightforward setup keeps the focus on the plates themselves rather than added frills. Guests seat themselves in for a meal built around familiar combinations, with the thick burritos standing out among the regular offerings for their generous fillings.

Customer Review Summary
Burritos are the most frequent draw. One diner describes them as thick and filled with meat, rice, beans, lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese, and another calls them excellent, with the steak still warm and the lettuce still crispy after cooling. Close behind, reviewers praise the carne asada, the michelada, homemade tortillas, and a barbacoa described as delicious. Two visitors from Texas say they hope to return. Service is the recurring complaint. Reviewers describe long waits for an order, for extra tortillas, and for the check, with one noting the waitress took a large group's order first. Others say staff rarely checked on the table, so they had to call out or raise a hand. Opinions on the food are split. One reviewer found the pollo a la plancha a little dry and the El Torito salty, while another called the chicken bland with cold beans and rice. One family said the quesadilla de azada was the tastiest dish, and the same reviewer objected that the cashier kept the coin change.

“F'n awful. The waitress couldn't speak English. I ordered a sweet tea, she brought a bottled water. It took 30 minutes to place the order and even longer to pay for it. And there was absolutely no one but myself and 3 friends the entire time we were there. The food was terrible. It looked like a left over carcass after being dragged thru the everglades. I wouldn't eat here if it were one of 10 Commandments. "Thou shalt not eat here."”

“I really it's really close to my house and I would love for this to be a great Mexican restaurant but it's not. It's terrible I can't believe I've eaten there three times now. Each time gets worse than the last. Don't go there there's so many better places than this.”

“The burritos were excellent but I eat slowly so I let them cool. The steak was still warm and the lettuce was still crispy though. Yummy!”
