27 Best Mexican Restaurants near Haymarket

“Amazing food! Nothing was sub par. We got the Southwest Burrito with black beans. Also got the Avocado Taco and Local Scramble Taco with Black beans substituted for the Chorizo. Ended brunch with the Churro French toast. I kid you not when I say it was amazing. Our server was Aaron who was great!“

“I love this restaurant! For years it has been a favorite. The food is great and so is the service.“

“Yes my wife and I almost didn't go in . Wow ! That would of been a bad mistake! This place is the Best I've had . Margaritas were on point , the food was on point and the service was on point. Don't pass it by !“

“Tried the tortas and they were a bit lacking in meat, the places in manassas fill them up more. Nonetheless, it does have good flavor and the spicy sauce is bussin. Got a tamal as well but fell it was reheated in the microwave, the corners crusted, but they are flavorful. Haven’t tried the tacos yet, so will come back for them.“

“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.“

“great food, great staff, great environment“

“This is such a great Mexican restaurant in South Riding and also family owned. The prices are great and portions large. Salsa is amazing! That is one thing that keeps me coming back. The only thing I’d work on is better crafted margaritas. They have the frozen in the machine that are OK.“

“Delicious food and large portions. Def get what you pay for. Customers service was excellent“

“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!“

“Best Mexican food in the area, and they treat you like family! Highly recommended!“

“Great food and service!!!“

“La Chofita Mexican Food exceeded my expectations. The atmosphere is lively and comfortable, the food is authentic and absolutely delicious, and the new management has brought excellent service and great energy to the restaurant. A must-visit if you love great Mexican food!“

“We finally tried this place and must say we had a great experience! The Pupusas are delicious (very cheesy) and fresh! Their nachos are real nachos, they had carne asada pieces, beans, cheese, onions, tomatoes and probably more. Their Horchata is probably the best I’ve had in a long time! Milky not too sweet and definitely flavorful. Hungry for Authentic Salvadoran food? This is probably the place!“

“Excellent food and service!! Friendly staff reasonably priced. Very nice and clean restaurant. I highly recommend!!!“

“La comida es muy en buena, a mi esposa y a mi nos encanta, cada visita a este lugar siempre me quedan ganas de volver! Mi última visita nos atendió Estefany y nos ofreció un excelente servicio.“

“My brother and I loved the menudo. My hubby loved the enmoladas montages. Great food and service was always served with a smile. Missing Nena’s Restaurant 😔“

“My daughter keeps asking when we can go back all the time.“

“Anita’s breakfast burritos are so good, never fails. Everyone here was very nice. And I’m happy they are open early.

They are definitely doing it right at this place, I can’t wait to go back and enjoy my time sitting down in this beautiful restaurant. Thank you!!“

“We came, we ate, and the portions were great. I forgot to take a photo beforehand... so you’re seeing the some of the aftermath! 📸
The staff was on point for a busy Saturday night. We had reservations, checked in easily, and were seated within minutes despite how crowded it was. Our waitress was attentive and genuinely thoughtful—she checked on us multiple times after the food arrived and even made sure our kid was taken care of without us having to ask (which, let’s be honest, is rare).
As for the food: fantastic. My husband ordered the fajitas and immediately noticed the difference ...the onions were perfectly caramelized, not burned or overly charred. And yes, I fully appreciated the sizzle. I ordered the quesadillas, and they were cheesy, well-filled, and cooked just right and you can tell the tortillas were fresh! We will be back!“

“I used to go here all the time for 2 reasons. One was because the food was really good and the 2nd reason was because the most beautiful girl I had ever seen worked there. Her name was Roxana. Once Roxana left, I stopped going as often. The food is still good and the customer service is still great.“

“The food was delicious! Large quantities and wonderful owners.“

“I come here as often as I'm passing by. Best to order ahead to avoid a wait, especially during lunch times. It helps to be able to speak Spanish, more so if you order ahead.I'm all about the burrito del asada. The steak inside the burrito keeps with a crispy outer crunch even when everyone else in there should make it soggy. I do see what everyone else is getting and it also looks delicious.Bang for your buck, this is where it's at. Only downside, if anything, is there are only two picnic tables and all outdoor. However, if you're looking for a place to eat on a rainy day, come here anyway and find somewhere else to eat it.

Parking: Lunch time is crowded but you can park at the gas station nextdoor while you wait.“
