36 Best Mexican Restaurants near Sandston

“The margaritas are really tasty! And the Birria Quesadillas are amazing!“

“This was a very pleasant surprise! Our dinner was excellent, the waitress was charming and attentive, and I had the best "skinny " margarita ever!!! Cannot wait to go back!“

“We ate at the Mechanicsville location on our way home from out of state. I always order a chimichanga every time I have Mexican, which is often. I ordered one today with ground beef. When it was brought out to me it looked like a taquito ( a 1/3 of the size). A manager came over and was not happy when I told him that. He said that was their normal size chimi’s. To top it all off when I took my first bite It was shredded beef instead of ground beef. I put do NOT RECOMMEND and do not know what happened and now I cannot change it!!!!!!’“

“All was great good good and fast service“

“Best birria egg rolls in Richmond Virginia, food was exceptional 💯💯🫶🏾🫶🏾“

“A nice restaurant with good food and service. The steak and chorizo tacos were very good!“

“Casa del Branco was such a gem! The location right on the canal is adorable — I sat inside, and the space was beautifully decorated and full of charm. It’s definitely a cute spot for a date night or dinner with friends.

That said, the real highlight was the food. I ordered the margarita flight and had so much fun trying their specials — 10/10 experience if you can’t decide on just one flavor.

We started with the traditional queso and chips. It was good overall, just a little thick in consistency for my preference, but still tasty.

The absolute star of the night was the carne asada fries — perfection. You could truly taste the char from the grill on the meat, and the flavors were incredible. Easily my favorite dish.

We finished with the dynamite shrimp tacos and steak tacos, and both were so good. Every bite was packed with flavor.

The portions were generous — we ordered for two people and still had plenty left over. I truly enjoyed the entire meal and will absolutely be returning. Highly recommend!“

“Pretty Good For being in Virginia“

“The tacos are delicious, the service is friendly and the restaurant is clean. From the outside it looks bleak but I come for the food not the atmosphere. Try the Tripa, Lengua, or Carne Asada tacos and ask for the corn tortillas which are made fresh.“

“Great service and suggestions from Amanda. The Cocoa Mole Sauce Over Brisket Enchiladas was Decadently Yummy“

“You have to try the Quesabirria. Hands down best on the east coast. Amazing taste and I always leave soooo full and satisfied.“

“My husband and I had the pleasure of dining there, the food was superb, the entire staff was very pleasant, our server kept our drink orders refilled without asking. We will definitely be returning there very soon and will recommend this establishment to friends and family.“

“This place was incredible! We all had nachos as it was Nacho Thursday.“

“I want to give the manager Mr Jose a shout out for being a great manager who listens and who is very helpful. I accidentally ordered some food on my mobile app on Halloween day and called to speak to a manager to see how to go about getting my order canceled. Mr Jose answer the phone and had a better idea he told me to go inside the store speak to the manager and let them know that I've talked to him personally and see if they will help me get my order at the correct location in Chester. If it wasn't for Mr Jose's quick thinking and his wonderful customer service skills I don't think I would have been able to have qdoba's that night because I really did not want to ride all the way back to Richmond. Keep doing the great job that you do Mr Jose I want to tell you again I am so very thankful for your kindness.“

“Tacos de lengua, son los mejores y la calidad está muy buena.“

“wraps , it is always worth it .“

“Coming from Texas we’ve been looking for a place that hits that Tex-Mex spot, and I’d say this is fairly close. The 3 taco special is a so filling and the queso/cheese dip is the best we’ve had in Richmond so far. I definitely look forward to making this a regular spot!“

“We were planning to go to the more popular place across the street but they had no public restrooms. Neither did a lot of other local business, but thank goodness we walked into this friendly establishment!! We decided to stay and eat. This service was quick and direct. The food was to die for. It was seriously so good and they serve much food for the price. We left very happy.“

“Amazing food! I ordered food to go during a road trip. The food melted in my mouth! That’s how good it was. I ordered picaditas - the best I’ve ever had. Milanesa de pollo torta, tacos and a quesadilla. It was delicious! Will definitely stop by for food during my trips.“

“mi pueblito pizzeria and restaurant??? more like TORTA DE CARNE ASADA RESTAURANT!! this place should be known for their torta’s, not pizza. look. my dad is from the caribbean. i’ve never heard of a torta in my life until i came to this place.

my girlfriend’s family have been coming here for years (she’s salvadoran) and she said the sopa de pollo tastes like home. everytime she eats here food she makes a “mmm” sound so it means she happy.

as you can see below we had a feast (wasn’t the first time) we got empanadas, queso de pupusas (wasn’t as good as her moms), horchata, torte de carne asada, and even sopa de pollo

the food was so good, the atmosphere is cool, the workers speak espanol, and the prices are reasonable. come here if you want a full belly

this made me like hispanic culture 10x more. im officially salvadoran. mi gustas el salvadorena comida.“

“Moving from the west coast I was worried I wouldn’t find good Mexican restaurants. Thank god I found this gem! They smoke their meats fresh everyday and it’s amazing! Pastor, asada and chicken are all absolutely delicious! Highly recommended! Staff are great, environment is authentic and welcoming! If you’re looking for a great meal stop in and try it!“

“Awesome papusas. I will definitely be coming back.“

“Walking the street of Richmond, my father and I was looking for a good restaurant. We stumbled upon this place. The hospitality is excellent and the food was delicious. We live in Florida, but when we return to Richmond, we’ll definitely return to Tito’s Taqueria. The prices were good and the portions were plentiful.“

“Chicarrones ! Sí por favór“

“We ate at the Mechanicsville location on our way home from out of state. I always order a chimichanga every time I have Mexican, which is often. I ordered one today with ground beef. When it was brought out to me it looked like a taquito ( a 1/3 of the size). A manager came over and was not happy when I told him that. He said that was their normal size chimi’s. To top it all off when I took my first bite it was lovely.“

“Run don’t walk! Best tacos on Jeff Davis! Highly recommend! The man that operates the truck when he’s there the salsa verde is fabulous!!!“

“Me gusta todo lo ke ay los medicamentos las cosas esta ermosas la comida“

“When I tell you this place has the best tacos you’ll find within RVA! I came across this place by accident Thursday night & I say accident bc my (ex fav.) taco truck was closed. I ordered a carne asada torta, 2 lengua tacos and a pastor, my bf ordered carnitas and asada. The meat was seasoned and cooked perfectly! & they don’t skimp you on the meat either. The food was so good that I went back Sunday afternoon for more tortas and more tacos. I’ve told all of my coworkers about this place. 10/10 recommend!!“

“KARAOKE NIGHTS with DJLON ON FRIDAY NIGHTS IS A VIBE! COME JOIN US!“

“ALL THE STARS!!! Every time we visit Dollar Tree we are tempted by the aroma from their smoker, and today we heard beautiful, live music and had to step in. THE FOOD IS DELICIOUS!! The service was excellent despite my poor Spanish speaking skills, and the singer had a powerful and tremendous voice. We cannot wait to visit again!!!“

“We've been coming here for years and have always enjoyed the food. Its your typical Mexican food but they do it pretty well. The service is always good. The Margaritas are on point. The only negative thing I can say is that they have a ridiculous charge for using your debit or credit card there. Don't charge me for trying to pay for my meal....“

“This is new ownership and a new beginning. I wished they brought in new furniture instead of using the old stuff. The ice machine and the coke machine are still having issues like before. I will give them a second chance but they need to really focus on the atmosphere and keeping everything working so you can truly enjoy your meal. It’s going to take some time for the new staff to learn how to roll a Burrito so be patient with everyone. The food was good but we had a bunch of stale chips in our bag, they will improve on this as well. I will update once I go back again in a couple of weeks. Good luck new owners“
