Steak tacos

I came here for dinner on a Monday night. They had a great deal on margaritas for $5. I ordered that along with the steak tacos. Everything was delicious and fresh. The service was also excellent. I will definitely return.

Chicken Fajitas
Jen A.

Good Mexican food! Great fajitas and friendly staff! The salsa and chips were some of the freshest I've had!

Three Item Combo
Destiny E.

Honestly... the food here really hit the spot for me. This might've been one of the best FRIED fish tacos I've ever eaten outside of Seven Lives in Toronto. We came in on a Sunday after walking the mountain trails just a few miles away. We had a great experience. The service was excellent. Our server was extremely nice and attentive (as was our hostess) and the food came out piping hot in a short amount of time. My favorite item was definitely the chicken tamale, though. The guacamole needed a bit more salt and maybe spice but I can't wait to come back here.

Chilaquiles
Jeff J.

We decided to give their breakfast a try this past Sunday. After looking over the menu we both decided to try the Chilaquiles. We had watched a couple of Youtube cooking videos about Chilaquiles recently and wanted to try them. I've never had them and didn't know what they were until we discovered the dish online. Turned out to be quite delicious. I had expected the dish to be saucier, but it was still worth it. We were both quite full afterward. We chose scrambled eggs as a topper. My wife had verde sauce, I had the red sauce. Both tasted great :-). If you drive over to the usual Mtn View on a Sunday morning and find them to have the usual 20-minute wait, go up the road a minute or so and give this a try.

Breakfast Menu
Suzanne R.

A friend and I tried the new breakfast at Casa Rico this morning. My husband and I LOVED Tex Mex breakfasts when we were in San Antonio but have never found anything like it-until today. Casa Rico is now serving breakfast daily at 7am and the food is delicious, well priced, and generous portions. As a stay at home mom with my last kid in preschool breakfast dates with friends are a new treat, and Casa Rico will be my first suggestion anytime someone asks. My friend and I decided to get two entrees and share them. I ordered the Huevos Rancheros and she ordered the Chilaques with steak. Both come with a sunny side up egg but we asked for our eggs over easy and they were perfectly executed-Cooked white, runny yolk. The Huevos Rancheros came with two corn tortillas piled with beans, egg, sauce and avocado. The Chilaques was the start-a mounding plate of flavor! We joked that next time we will just split the Chilaques with extra steak because we had leftovers. The steak was sliced into juicy strips, the sauces tortilla strips with still crunchy. We tried both the red and green sauces, the green was a winner for us! I also ordered a side of bacon for $2.50 and was presented FIVE slices of bacon. The service was perfectly attentive, our coffee and tea were always full. The restaurant was clean and well lit. Our meal was less than $35 for both of us which is a steal for the quantity and quality. If you find yourself in the mood to try a new breakfast spot, you won't regret rolling down to Casa Rico at the end of the Golden Mile.

GRILLED CHIPOTLE BURRITO
Darby D.

Every Mexican restaurant has to have good chips and salsa. Theirs? Out of this world. (Agreed on by all 4 of us). The service was awesome (especially since we kept ordering more chips and salsa). I got the chipotle burrito, which is one of the best life decisions I've made to date. Yes, everyone was jealous, and yes, it was absolutely incredible. Highly recommend. If you're on the fence, you've found the right place.

Chicken Fajita
Thi H.

Second time trying Casa Rico. I would say their food is ok. Not the best Mexican food I've had but not horrible. The one thing that they make well there is their chips and salsa. We ordered the Chicken Fajitas and Mexi Roll.

Best fish taco in town!!

UPDATE: After getting a lovely response from the management…read moreat this location through Google reviews, I decided to give them another try! My friend and I had lunch there yesterday. I was pleasantly surprised with this experience. I ordered the chicken enchiladas with the molé sauce and my friend ordered the shrimp tacos. The presentation of the enchiladas was impressive and the shrimp tacos looked tasty! I loved the sauce on my dish and the cheese/queso. I was full after 2 and a half of the enchiladas. It came with 4. My friend filled up on 2/3 of the tacos. Soni was our server and she did amazing! She was sure to keep our waters filled and was consistently checking in with us. The cleanliness of the restaurant and bathrooms were still impressive, despite a couple of crumbs on the table when we sat down. The chips and salsa were still my favorite part. I can be pretty picky when it comes to salsa but I love the texture and taste of this salsa. The chips always come out crispy and fresh! We were there at lunch time and the restaurant was not super busy. I'm glad I gave them another try! My husband and I love mexican food and were excited to try this location. I was very pleased with the environment when we walked in. The staff was welcoming and the restaurant was beautiful. I was excited to get seated in a booth immediately on a Friday at around 5. I will also say that the bathrooms were incredibly clean! My husband and I both ordered tacos, but we were disappointed to find out they were out of the Birria tacos. I was shocked because it seemed early enough on a Friday for them to not be running out of items. I ordered chicken tacos and was not impressed. They were very bland and didn't come with much to add to the chicken and tortilla although, the plate was presented beautifully. My husband ordered the fish tacos and while he did enjoy them, they were also quite underwhelming. The service was not exceptional. I had to ask for water multiple times and as I was once a waitress myself, I was always taught water should be served immediately. I also had to remind my waitress 2 times that we had ordered the queso. It didn't come out until we had already received our food. Despite this, the chips and salsa were actually quite tasty and kept us satisfied. The server did bring more chips when we were getting low and was attentive to my soda and my husbands beer. I did feel the waitress could've been more attentive, but she was very kind and cheerful. I feel it's also important to note that the restaurant did not seem to be busy. I was happy to find that for two orders of tacos, a beer, and a soda, the bill was roughly $50, plus a $10 tip. While my husband and I prefer other Mexican restaurants in the area, I am glad we got to experience El Habanero.

There are some parking spots right in front, although not many. There is a decent amount of seating, but it would be tight if you had a large party. My partner did note that the bathrooms weren't that great. You immediately get served complementary chips and salsa. They were pretty basic, but not bad. We ordered the following: + Papusas (Pork and Cheese & Loroco and Cheese) - Decent, although I prefer the Loroco (an edible flower bud). + Pollo à la Primavera (chicken dish) - Yummy, especially the sauce which mixes well with their hot/spicy sauce too! I could do without the salad dressing. + Camarones con Calabeza (shrimp dish) - Same as above! Note they leave the tails on. + Natural Juices (Mango and Maranon) - So refreshing! I loved the Maranon (cashew apple) was a wonderful burst of tropical sweetness with a subtle nutty taste. I appreciate that for the pupusas they had the foresight to provide my partner and I two plates so we could sphere the papusas. The portion sizes of the entrees were great for the price. It did take a while for the staff to swing by so that we could get boxes and the check. Note that credit cards and mobile pay are accepted. I definitely wouldn't mind coming back again to try more items on their menu.

Rango's absolutely lived up to the hype. We came after hearing it was one of the best Mexican…read morerestaurants in Virginia, and it did not disappoint. Parking was easy with a large garage right next to the restaurant, which made it especially convenient before heading to a show nearby. When we walked in, the bar was packed with people watching the game, and it had a fun, lively atmosphere. It definitely looked like a great place to catch a sporting event. The service was excellent from start to finish. The owner even came over to introduce himself, which was a really nice touch and made us feel welcome. The chips and salsa were good, just what you'd hope for at a quality Mexican restaurant. We ordered the shrimp fajitas, regular fajitas, and a couple of quesadillas from the kids menu. Even though the menu says it's for kids 8 and under, they were happy to let our slightly older kids order from it. It was a fantastic value, although I'd recommend it more for kids around 12 and under based on the portion sizes. Everything we ordered was fresh and flavorful, but the standout was definitely the homemade tortillas. They were outstanding. I also asked for a hot sauce, and they brought out a fresh green sauce that completely elevated the meal. I'm not sure exactly what was in it, but it was incredible. Great food, friendly service, easy parking, and a welcoming atmosphere. We'd definitely come back and would highly recommend Rango's to anyone looking for excellent Mexican food in Virginia.

We also tried the carne asada, which came covered in a brown gravy--not exactly what we expected to see on our steak!

On our return visit, we ordered the steak and shrimp, and wow--the flavor was absolutely delicious! The steak had an amazing flavor. We also tried the steak with onions, which comes topped with plenty of sautéed onions. It was very good, but the skirt steak with shrimp is still our favorite. We came back again for brunch and tried the steak and eggs, which was pretty tasty and served on a sizzling platter. They also have a $30 brunch option where you can choose three menu items, get brunch drinks at a substantially reduced price, and receive a dessert. That's a pretty good deal! The restaurant also has a large menu with plenty of choices, so there is still a lot for us to try. The customer service has been consistently good, and we really enjoy their fresh, tasty chips and salsa. The chips are crisp and flavorful, and the salsa is delicious. We've now been back several times and will definitely return to try more menu items. There are some surprisingly delicious dishes here!

I was able to get my order in just in time and informed them I'd need a refill before it was over. My flautas came out as two taquitos cut in half and I just laughed. Barely any lettuce piled on top with sour cream and salsa on the side. Really, two tortillas rolled around chicken and cheese. It was hilarious. It was just barely much food at all and I didn't want to try anything else so just asked for my refill. Check came and got charged full price. When I asked about it, I was given a smart response and told they wouldn't take it off again like they were doing me a favor or I was trying to get over SMH They're lucky that passionfruit marg was hitting or it would have been challenging to go back.
