Its a beautiful place but there were so many flies while I was eating (indoors) and the bathrooms need a good cleaning, they can also use a revamp on the menu... I ordered tacos but they weren't too good. Also, there are about 5 dishes on the menu for dessert but only have 2 ... On the other hand, the fish they sell is excellent. This restaurant has the potential to do much better....

Good service! Get the frozen sangria!

I have driven past this place before while in the area for work and had never found the time to stop by and I am really glad that I did. First off, the building is gorgeous, I was a little in awe standing inside of it, all the natural light give it a very welcoming atmosphere. The staff were all friendly and attentive. I ordered Carnitas and a glass of Tamarind Juice. athe carnitas were good although it was a little dry but good flavors overall. There was a pretty substantial serving and a lot of sides to accompant it with rice, guacamole, refried beans and corn tortillas. I also had Fried Icecream to finish off my meal and it was good. If you are in the area and looking for a nice place to have lunch with friends or family or just enjoy a meal on your own at a place with a welcoming atmosphere, you should give this place a try.

I WILL NEVER ENTER THIS RESTAURANT AGAIN. I walked in to place an order and went to this table they have when you first walk in . I picked up what I thought was a menu but it was a brochure. So a server came asked me for my order so I told her what I would like. So she left and I set down in the waiting area. So as I'm waiting on my order this server comes to me an asked me if I took something off the front table so I was like no and she said in a smart tone asking me again " so u did not take anything off the table" and I told her "No". So now I'm hot inside so then she tells me " Well we have cameras n I said well u better go check your cameras. So I'm sitting there waiting for her to come back n tell me something n she never comes back. So the server that took my order ask me about my order n I told I don't want the order anymore because your co worker just accused me of taking something. So the server says "OH SHE FOUND IT" so I said what did she loose n she said she thought her customer left her Tip money on the table but it was given to another server. So I was like she needs to come apologize. So I'm thinking the server told her what I said nope she went back to working so when I found my server and asked for the other server name she said "I AM BUSY" and I was like WOW n then she gave me a fake name. But first I asked for management and was told he is not there. SMH. Me and my family eat from this place and I Pick up orders for this restaurant. Never again.

I really liked this place! Great tasting food and drinks at a reasonable price- consistently. When I'm in Richmond I always pester my sister to go. The 2 stars are because the food tasted really good but the to go packing and presentation were disappointing especially after knowing it's not been so poorly done before. Last night around 9:15 we called in for carry out. I got shrimp tacos, my sister got beef tacos. Knew it closed at 10 so went for simple and fast. The bag was soaking wet. There were 2 large aluminum packages inside with a small bag of tortilla chips and a tiny container of salsa and some other sauce. 3 tacos were rolled together in aluminum- bad presentation on top of making a mess. It was end of the night. People are tired. I get it, but you could have simply told us the kitchen was closed. Hope to go back, but not sure I can convince my sister. She normally goes there once a week at least.

Javier and his team are amazing! Just ordered the taco bar for my daughter's birthday. The food was great, they arrived on time and everyone loved it! So happy with our experience!

went because of the reviews! In town for work and it was so close to my hotel- and I love Mexican. Chips were stale. Salsa tasted... Metallic like...? I don't know it was weird. The chicken soft taco was delicious. Salsa verdes enchiladas was not. The rice and beans were awful. The beans tasted again, like it had a metallic taste. Really underwhelmed. The decor is nice.

The restaurant is beautiful!! Food took long to.come out and was okay. The restaurant was not too busy but the service was not good. I never got my drink refill and it seemed like we were bothering our server. Prob would not return again.Features: No paper towels or soap in the bathroom.

CHECK YOUR RECEIPTGreat ambience, good food, fast and friendly service, good for lunch groups *IF* they charge the correct amount. I noticed this as we were walking out, and I was late for a meeting so I couldn’t ask about it. One of our group did mention it to the server and she fixed it but I’m pretty sure the rest of our group was charged dinner prices at lunch, and also actually charged more than the total bill amount on the credit card.
The food here is fantastic. However do not order a 12 oz salsa to go, it's only 8 oz if that! I realize you all think it's 12 oz but it is not. Get a measuring cup and dump it in there. It's barely 8 oz. get yourself some real 12 oz containers. I think the ones you have are for dry ingredients.

I have always enjoyed this place. They have stayed consistent throughout Covid and I will continue to support them. Food is always fresh. Service always good. There are no negatives here.

Hands down this has always been the very best ( Authentic) Mexican restaurant on Midlothian, the food is always seasoned and flavourful. When it arrives to your table it's hot and Fresh. I've had dine in service, pickup service and it's always remains the same.

This may be a more typical Mexican restaurant but it's just so good. The inside felt like you were walking into a courtyard in Mexico which is better than any other restaurant I've seen! The service was great And everyone was friendly. Food was not only delicious but affordable. Queso was a little different in the best way- a nice touch of heat
