Opened 25 years ago, El Cerro Grande is proud to be the first authentic Mexican restaurant in town! This traditional Mexican restaurant in Wilmington, NC is owned by the Ibarra family from the small Mexican town of Degollado. The name El Cerro Grande is inspired by a “Big Hill” close to their family ranch. El Cerro Grande began as an idea to provide authentic, quality Mexican food with exceptional and friendly service, and the door of their first restaurant was opened in Wilmington, NC in January 1991. It has since grown to include three locations in Wilmington. Open daily from 11:00 am and offering the best Mexican lunch and dinner in town, restaurants are located at: 341 S. College Rd, 5120 S. College Rd, 1051 Military Cutoff Rd. Every location strives to provide consistent, quality food, service based on their founding principles and a great ambience for sharing with family and friends. So come on in and keep the tradition going with their aperitivos (appetizers), nachos, sopas y ensaladas (soups & salads), fajitas, tacos, quesadillas, enchiladas, burritos, especialidades de la casa (house specialties), vegetarian dishes and much more. They have been serving every day—for more than two decades—delicious dishes for everyone!

I used a credit card to pay my bill at this establishment -location college road across from Sam's. I entered the total, signed and left the restaurant. Waiter changed the total amount on the bill after it was signed. Bill not changed by much but changed none the less. I wonder how many other credit card totals have been changed. You need to check your credit card statements. I was a frequent customer but do not plan to go back. I filed a dispute with my credit card company and I am considering filing a Better Business Bureau complaint. Management was not responsive even after acknowledging responsibility by text.
