“This taco bell is the best taco bell, no....the best fast food restaurant ever, hands down. I dont know what they are slipping into these doritos locos taco supremes from this joint but i crave them 24/7. And heres the best part. They aint never gone skimp ever. In fact they load these beast tacos up everytime. Plus they taste so darn good. Its the best quality dorito taco you will find.“

“We live an hour away and still only go to Frank's Monster Munchies Cantina when we want carne asada. We have tried numerous places in VA for the last 6yrs trying to find the same taste as back home (Cali) and was constantly disappointed till we tried Franks. y'all are the only place that delivers that same quality and taste we were missing/looking for. The atmosphere is one of a kind and always top notch service and respect.“

“went out for an amazing date night!! the food was amazing but the service was phenomenal! Amon was an amazing server who went above and beyond to make our date night perfect ! the server who makes the tableside guacamole was so awesome too!“

“My family and I eat here often. My husband is Puerto Rican and his family lives on the island this is the only place they eat when they come to visit. They have great authentic food. I always get the bandeja paisa and the portion is always great, the sauce for the steak is so good. I love chicharron and chorizo so the paisa is the best option to get both. My husband loves their mofongo. We’ve had both kinds of empanadas they sell and they both are delicious. Their tres leches cake is always a good dessert. We had service from Vanessa and Emerson tonight and had no issues they checked in just enough. We have also had Vanessa for a server in the past and she has always been friendly and attentive.My family and I eat here often.

“Qdoba virgin but have been to other chains like Moe’s, Chipotle, etc… this food was different. It tasted so fresh and had a ton of flavor. The staff working was so friendly and helpful. 11/10 will be returning. Accidentally ate all my food before I could take a picture.“

“Delicious food and great service!“

“This is the first time I have gone to this location and the experience was pleasant. I am not sure if this is contributed to Teyanna, but since she has been there, it is definitely much better. The other shift manager was always on her phone, never greeted you, never made sure the food was hot and fresh, display was always a mess and her facial expression always made you feel like she preferred you eat elsewhere. Thank you Teyanna for contributing to my experience today!“

“the best restaurant in the area of Newport news good food good team faster than others.“

“Absolutely love qdoba , I have been here daily for the last two weeks and GREG has been the absolute best ,giving me top quality service each visit . If my food was ever missing an item he was quick to correct it without hassle . And for that alone was enough to have me coming back so often . I’ve recommended this particular location to several others whom also love the food quality and customer service. Restaurant is always always clean and quiet. I will continue to visit this location . Oh and the quest they give is so top tier . I had enough to share with my family with a little left over . Thank you qdoba“

“Waiter was awesome, just like last visit!!“

“Buena comida casera recomiendo“

“The food is more authentic than most of the competition in the area. The chile rellenos are the best I've had at a restaurant. They are homemade-style. I do miss the old Mexican lady that used to make their mole, but I heard she went back to Mexico 😒
The burritos are also good here. The salsa they give you makes the difference with the burritos.
Hoping they step up their mole game. This would make me consider giving 5 stars.“

“My fiancé and I came here this past Friday and it was AMAZING! We will be back again!!“

“best place in town love the food drinks an the staff“

“Without question the most flavorful, and largest in size tamales I've ever eaten. Other restaurants serve small, narrow and flavorless tamales for +$6, these are just over $4 and are 3 times the size. I've always heard authentic tamales are outstanding, those people were not lying. The flavor range of these tamales are so great, you get addicted immediately at the first bite. I'm excited to try other dishes from this restaurant once I decide to move on from the tamales, but that won't be for some time. Even the West Coast tamales can't compete with these monsters, from my experience anyway.“

“todo muy bien si se. pudiera poner 10 ⭐ las pondria“

“I've used the drive-thru at this location several times and love the ability to customize the order online prior to arriving. I was delighted with all 3 items that I ordered even though I removed meat, cheese, and sour cream. For example, I had the Black Bean Chalupa Supreme fresco with pico de gallo and guacamole -- delicious.“

“Great dinner and company. The dining room was pleasantly clean and the ambient music not overbearing as some places are. The staff was helpful and made a great suggestion of something to try based on what else we ordered, showing attention to the customer at hand, not a generic 'try this new menu item'. Very pleased. I don't eat out often and am generally disappointed, not tonight!!!“

“First time I ordered here, I accidently ordered from the app while sitting in a Taco Bell up the road. I am not normally in this area. Everyone here was friendly, the restaurant was clean, and the food was really good. I hadn’t eaten Taco Bell in a while and started eating here again in the past few months. Every time I eat at this particular restaurant the employees are always so friendly. It is fun to listen to the banter while I wait for my food. If you are a fan of Taco Bell and in the area i definitely recommend this location. I also tend to customize my food and so it is really great that not only is it fresh it always tastes good. Sorry didn’t think to get more pictures of the food.“

“I love the people that work here. Even though the regular chicken power bowl isn’t on the menu anymore they’ll make it for me. I don’t like the new Cantina menu that they make it with now ( too much salt) so I appreciate the fact that they’ll go out of their way to make the old version for me. Every time I go there they greet me with a smile and are always pleasant.“

“I wanted to give a shout out to Faith C. I just came thru, 3/12/26 & she noticed a bday bag in my car and told me happy birthday & gave me some coupons. It’s the small things we do each day that can really brighten someone’s day. I thought that was so kind & I wish more people were like you 🫶🏻Thank you Faith & happy early birthday to YOU too ❤️ #PiscesGang ♓️“
