Their food is consistently great, and the people are nice. Their flan is incredible. Last time, they added some raspberry and chocolate syrup on top of the flan, and I asked if next time I can get it without those extra syrups because it is amazing by itself.

This was really delicious. Not much to look at but the food was fresh and very tasty. The service was fast and friendly. We will definitely go again!

Cannot express how much I love this restaurant. The people are great, the food is amazing, but more importantly the margaritas are top notch. We love having them in our community!

Everything I’ve tried at El Zocalo is out of the park stellar. They make their Mole from scratch, it’s incredible. Their shrimp tacos are succulent and delicious as well. You can taste the quality and care they put into their food. The staff is friendly and it’s a cool, laid back environment to get some incredible Mexican food. Truly a gem of a restaurant.

We went here after a long hot day at Kings Dominion. Everything was great, folks were friendly and the food was delicious.

This is the best Mexican in Richmond. You have to make the trip to Hanover

Located on a busy corner, but still easy to get in and out. Just look both ways when exiting, remember it's a busy road! Indoor and outdoor seating and they offer heated outdoor seating in colder weather.

Small interior, kinda cramped. Staff is always friendly, always smiling, happy to serve. Chips and salsa served when seated. White sauce available if requested. It's a little thicker than the usual white sauce, but still tastes good. We also like to start with their queso, which is white cheese and so delicious.

We've had enchiladas poblanos, spinach enchiladas, fajitas, burritos. Lunch portions are smaller and still sometimes too much for me to eat at once. Everything tastes great. Quality ingredients, savory flavors. I really like their rice. Haven't been disappointed with a meal yet.

Tastiest food in the area by far. We regularly drive close to an hour to eat here. A small local, family run restaurant - the best kind of place. The staff is super nice and very attentive to your needs. Can't go wrong.

Great food, really great location but feels like a secret. We eat after a motorcycle group meetings and they can always accommodate us.
