Prime restaurant atmosphere, professional service and wait staff was on-point. In a business where good customer service and good food is few and far between, Mexico Restaurant got it right. Highly recommend.
September 2025
One of our favorite restaurants in Richmond. It’s been a go-to favorite for years. I love their salsa more than any other restaurant salsa but it can be extra spicy at times. I love the fajita quesadilla and the California burrito as well as the tacos and taco salad. The queso and guacamole are always good too. This location has a huge patio in the back with water features which is really nice.
August 2025
I had a great experience at Mexico Restaurant on Forest Hill Avenue! When I walked in I was greeted with friendly smiles and welcoming service. The food was delicious and everything was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care.
The chips and salsa came out fast and were the perfect start to the meal. The portions were generous and definitely worth the price. The shrimp and cheese dip was on point, and every bite was full of authentic Mexican flavor.
