“Great patio staff experience! As luck would have it, our 10/4 visit was a first for our waitress. She made a fabulous impression on us with charm and grace. Uncle Julio's needs to clone this one as she made this a wonderful experience.

As has always been the case, the food and drinks were excellent and what a fantastic night to be on the patio!“

“Did NOT disappoint! Enjoyed a tasty meal at La Finca this weekend. Staff was friendly and attentive. Most important, the food was delish. Salsa was smooth--just a hint of heat and not too much cilantro. Beef and chicken flautas offered a great crunch and tender meat filling. Chile relleno, filled with melty cheesy goodness, was a hit! The skinny margarita was as you'd expect--good, but not quite the punch of a regular margarita. The mango-habanero shrimp was a beautiful presentation and the sauce packed a great, sweet kick--minus a star for shrimp being really over cooked (easy fix for the kitchen, though). Sounds like the new management team is off to a promising start and we can't wait to visit again!“

“My daughter has food allergies. It is not ever day we get to eat out and have a "normal" meal. You have a wonderful employee name Kiernan who was super patient and knowledgeable. She shared experiences with his own allergies and made me feel comfortable with our choice of restaurant forsure!“

“I generally like Taco Bell because it's stayed affordable unlike many fast food options, but this Taco Bell specifically has NEVER done me wrong. Their staff are always exceptionally friendly to me, and I truthfully have never had a poor experience.
Also Taco Bell is one of the few food places that has a decent selection of vegetarian options which is a plus.
Thanks for being awesome at this location :)“

“From within a quaint little mart that reminds me of my childhood comes some of the best tasting food I've had. I've tried the birria tacos and Al Pastor Torta and I have no notes for both. I'm craving more tacos as I type this review. The family that runs the shop is so sweet and friendly as well and I really felt welcome. It seems unassuming on the outside, but I recommend everyone drop by and give it a chance. You won't regret it.“

“Looking for that “go where everybody knows your name” kind of place? That’s exactly what you get at Hector’s of Nokesville. From the moment you walk in, you’re more than just a customer you’re family. The food? Legendary. Especially the breakfast sampler it’s the kind of meal that hits just right, every time. I’ve been to Hector’s so many times, I don’t even have to order anymore. They know me like Norm from Cheers, and honestly… I’m not mad about it. If you want good food, good folks, and that warm, small-town feel that’s getting harder to find these days Hector’s is the spot. Highly recommend you swing by. But fair warning: after a few visits, they just might memorize your order too.“

“My brother and I tried La China Poblana Taqueria for the first time today. Having grown up in San Diego, we have been searching for an authentic, family restaurant experience for a long while since moving up the DC area. ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL. Service was spot on. Food was on point. We can't recommend this place enough. The birria tacos and quesadilla were fantastic. My brother also tried their lingua and loved it. Also, their fresh guacamole... I haven't had guacamole this good since I left California 23 years ago.“
