We have been in Wilmington for six months and just found this treasure. Sandros, the bartender remembered bot only our names but our drink and appetizer preferences after only one visit. It made us feel so very special.The drinks were delicious and promptly served. The food was exceptional.Mexican food is our favorite and this is now our go to place. On the second visit we were fortunate to meet Gustavo, one of the owners. After talking with him for a while, it became clear why this is such an awesome place. He understands not only the restaurant business, which he has mastered, but the true meaning of customer service in any business.Please give these guys an opportunity to WOW you. Guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Great food but what really sets this place apart is the employees. Very nice and friendly and do whatever they can to make sure you are satisfied. That's really why my family and I are regulars.

Omg! Friends always told me to go here and I was never a HUGE fan of Mexican food but this place surely didn't disappoint. Came there for lunch wasn't too busy got greeted and our waitress sat us down the table and bought us a basket of chips with salsa. The salsa was just like any regular oh salsa and the chips I couldn't stop eating. Also order a side of queso with the chips. The watery consistent may alarm you but it's far from being any less cheesier. It was pretty good. I order off the lunch special menu and that was the fajita burrito. Girl! That plate was the boom! Chicken was seasoned perfect the grilled onions and bell peppers was just omg grilled to perfection. The tortilla was a little soft because of the load amounts of queso on top (which I'm not complaining) but the rice was kind bland but with all the flavored from the burrito it even out. I will definitelygo to this place again that's for sure! Love it!

El Cerro Grande is owned by the Ibarra family, who emigrated from the small Mexican town of Degollado, Jalisco. It is a small town located in the central mountainous region of the state of Jalisco. The name “El Cerro Grande” is inspired by one of the big hills close to the Ibarra Family ranch, La Sangijuela. El Cerro Grande began as an idea to provide authentic quality Mexican food with exceptional and friendly service.

4worldlovers: Our story begins in the small town of Degollado, located in the eastern highlands of the Mexican state of Jalisco. We immigrated from Degollado to North Carolina in 1995, relocating for a time in Virginia. For the next ten years we served our communities as cooks and servers, effectively perfecting the art of Mexican cuisine and flavor, as well as good hospitality and customer service. In 2005, we were able to open the doors to our first store. Now, 14 years later we are proud to say that one store has grown into four stores all throughout eastern North Carolina. From our family to yours, thank you for allowing us to share our culture, story, and most importantly, our food with you. We hope we can continue to serve you for many years to come.
