After wrapping up a roof replacement in Augusta today, we asked the homeowner for a good local lunch spot—and they recommended Candiles Mexican Restaurant. I’d never been there before, and now I’m wondering how I’ve missed it all this time, especially living so close.
The restaurant was a pleasant surprise—clean, welcoming, and with an impressively put-together menu that had a huge variety of dishes. I ordered the pork verde with rice and beans, and my buddy went with the two cheese enchiladas. It was a quick lunch, but everything was on point. Great flavors, generous portions, and fast, friendly service.
If you’re in Augusta and craving good Mexican food, definitely check this place out. Solid hidden gem.
