I came here for dinner by myself and it was glorious. I came in on a Wednesday evening around 7pm and it was not busy at all. I took a booth. I ordered a cheese dip with my chips and salsa. It was delicious. I ordered the 4 enchiladas with guacamole, tomatoes, cheese and sour cream. The enchiladas were bean, cheese, chicken, and beef. Omg they hit the spot. And they were delicious! Service was really fast. Restaurant was clean & beautifully decorated. Definitely coming back when in the area.

Stopped in on a Friday afternoon to enjoy a quick lunch. Ordered the lunch special fajitas which was under $9. Great value and it was more than enough food. Fajitas were delicious!! The service was also great.

I really enjoy Guad's! It's a good fast, casual restaurant with all the Mexican favorites. In particular, I love the carne asada. The meat is always so flavorful. Guad's has become a regular in our restaurant rotation!

Ordered for takeout and was pleasantly surprised. My husband ordered the steak and shrimp fajitas and I ordered the Al pastor tacos. He really enjoyed the fajitas. I also enjoyed my food, though they aren't the best I've ever tried. Very delicious but seems off for typical al pastor flavor. Great portion sizes. The rice and beans were also very good and flavorful. Food came with chips and salsa. Good chips! Salsa could be homemade but honestly tasted like Pace jar salsa. Quick service. I recommend and I will be eating here again!

I was riding on my motorcycle and I saw this place and thought I'd stop by and give it a shot and these enchiladas are off the chain. Amazing flavor came out quick hot pretty chill spot and the service is on point.

I'm unsure why this restaurant is less busy than La Parrila or Grand Rodeo. I have lived in Suffolk for 20 years, and this restaurant is far the best Mexican food in Suffolk. What I like is that they don't have the typical Mexican menu. I even say Guads is better than our regular "goto" Mexican restaurant, Plaza Azteca. If you have an appetite and are a meat eater, order Guads Hawaiian. Fresh pineapple filled with chicken, steak, chorizo, and shrimp cooked with peppers, onions, and tomatoes, topped with shredded cheese, and served with salad and tortillas. Guads is the new favorite!

My better half and I were in the Suffolk area. I think my stomach was growling, and I was acting hangry. The hubs tends to use google maps as his source to find the nearest eateries. He did ask me to look for something, but I was taking too long on yelp lol. Before I knew it we were parked in front of Guads. Upon entry we were greeted warmly and brought to a table. The interior was clean, bright, and spacious. Chips and salsa were complimentary. Our waiter brought water and menus which we perused quickly due to our hunger ;) The hubs started us out with buffalo shrimp. The sauce was unique.....I tasted the buffalo, but the sauce was different than any I've had. However, the shrimp was plentiful, large, and plump. I opted for chicken fajitas. It seems to be my go to almost all the time the past couple of months lol. It came with fresh made in house tortilla, rice, beans, and guacamole. The chicken had the great taste of charring from being cooked on the cast iron skillet. I asked for some hot sauce, and they went to the back, and surprised me with special in house very spicy hot sauce! I love that and it was delicious. I have a high spice tolerance. The hubs ordered the chimichanga. It was made into a dumpling, fried, and dressed with white sauce in addition to the rice and beans. The size of the chimichanga was quite small and the taste was ok. Overall it was a very good dining experience. We would go back!
