Don Papa is great family environment with a large vividly decorated dining area. We can always count on a smile and friendly greeting. Your server will take care of most of your needs and several other team members will keep water,chips and salsa in good supply. I have several favorites here, fajitas are served sizzling. Chimichangas are excellent, Tiera-e-Mar is a treat! There are plenty of great choices. I have a healthy appetite and usually take home leftovers. Come and enjoy! read more

Food was delicious. They prepare guacamole at your table with fresh ingredients. Margaritas were delicious. Service was speedy and friendly.

Don Papa Grande is a solid establishment that welcomes you in with its branded embroidered decor and warm environment. Every time I try a New Mexican restaurant, I go with my faves, a chimi and a marg. The chimichanga was good, it was very similar to La Carreta, another Virginia staple. I was happy to see a heaping scoop of guacamole upon it as well! The beans weren't my favorite though as they had an almost sweet tang to them. Not terrible, just not my cup of tea. Now the margarita is something to talk about! They come in three sizes, small-large. The large, being a 32oz behemoth was not for me on the day we went as I didn't want to stumble outta there. I went with the medium, a respectable 24oz. Flavor wise, it is very citrus, lending to a combo of lime and orange. And lemme tell you, that drink goes down smooth! You almost don't taste the liquor, but you surely feel it. The star of the show was the chips and salsa...you...just, can't stop eating them... Go to Don Papa Grande, it's a good time, good food, and awesome staff! read more

Where do I start? My server looked at me like she wanted to kill me when I said someone else already took my order; my drink had maybe half a shot of tequila in it (I usually get effed up on a Niña Bonita but not today); and I got the complete wrong order. Don't get me wrong, the food was good, hence the 2 stars instead of 1. But everything else left much to be desired. read more

Delicious food I ordered a queso fundido, plain queso, and a burrito with ground beef inside and queso drizzled on top, and it was all delicous. They have a white sauce and salsa for your chips, but I don't recommend the white sauce it might be good to some people, but me and my family and I do not like it. The waiters are very kind and get all the orders correct. When you walk in, you'll see they have a little bar, a little stand where you put your head in and take a picture, and candy at a counter for a little extra money. Very good and would come back! read more

I thought it was great .. went for lunch with a client.. I thought the server was great and I would go back. Had a lunch combo and added a taco. Perfect amount of cheese but maybe a tad bit more seasoning on the taco meat! Cute place! read more

I visited Don Papa Grande last week and my boyfriend and we loved the food. I think this may be my new fave Mexican restaurant in the area. The food came our fairly quickly. I ordered the Birrialicious burrito which had beef, rice, beans and cheese inside. It was packed with flavor. The churro ice cream was also a yummy treat. The service was friendly and we will be returning. read more

Don Papa Grande - a variety of drinks on a tray - Mexican Near Me - Chester, Virginia

First time eating here and hands down, this is my new favorite Mexican restaurant. Our experience was outstanding. Such an extensive menu I had a hard time deciding what to order. The drink menu was just as extensive and had a lot of great choices as well. The Mexican trash can will have you more than tipsy. Even the waiter gives you a warning and cautions you when ordering. The coctel de camaron was delicious. The tomato base is quite flavorful. The chorizo taco was tasty and not too spicy. The chorizo was fried with a slight crisp just how I like it The fish tacos were amazing. I do not typically order fish tacos but I am so glad I did. The grilled tilapia was cooked perfectly and the chipotle dressing was the perfect finish to the tacos. The white rice was the best rice I've had from any Mexican restaurant in this area. Texture and seasoning was on point. Restaurant has plenty of seating. It was not understaffed. Fast and Attentive service from our waiter. Best of all, great prices compared to other Mexican restaurants. Portions are huge. The Ambiance is your typical Spanish decor, darker lighting. I can't wait to come back. read more

My mom and I went to this place after a tennis match and I really enjoyed the food. I got the enchiladas Supreme, which were so delicious. They came with 4 enchiladas- chicken, beef, cheese, and beans. The cheese and bean enchiladas were by far my favorite because the meat ones were sort of dry. Obviously it came with chips, which were good, too. Maybe it's just a Mexican place thing, but there was no salt on them, which I guess is smart lol. Either way, I'd come back here. read more

I love dpg I have been going there for YEARS and never ever had a bad meal. Highly recommend. The flavors are 10/10

The food is always hot and delicious. I usually get the shrimp burrito grande and it always has alot of shrimp when most restaurants are a little stingy when it comes to seafood. The service is okay, it isnt spectacular but alot of the waitresses dont speak English too good yet they still try their best. The restaurant itself is always clean inside and has a nice atmosphere. Definitely check it out. read more

I don't know where to start. My boyfriend and I moved to the area from Michigan one year ago, & this was the first restaurant we went to. Food was stellar. Service was on point. Prices are more than reasonable. And most importantly- EVERYTHING IS CONSISTENT!! There has not been ONE TIME we have left disappointed. I want to give a special shoutout to our regular server, Gio. He hooks us up with great service and is always eager to make sure we feel like part of the Don Papa Grande Family. We continue to come here at least ONCE a WEEK, it's been a year now. For those considering dinner at this establishment, we HIGHLY recommend. read more

I am updating my review as I have been in for lunch a couple of times and have now brought my family in. As previously stated the margaritas are great and so is the queso appetizer. We have had a much better experience with the same waitress on our recent visit than we did previous. The fajitas are delicious, as are the sides and everything it comes with. We also tried several of the desserts which were also very good. We would both recommend and return in the future. The only thing that I would note is that we did not like the birria, and the tortilla soup had a bit too much rice in it for me. read more

Second time eating here. Not my favorite. Ordered the grilled shrimp salad which is supposed to come with ranch. Came with with thousand island. They had no ranch.So I opted for cheese. They had no other options. Shrimp were very overcooked. Daughter's cheese quesadilla was not melted and cold. Service is ok. Atmosphere is ok , but loud and tables are too close together. Wife enjoyed her cheesy chimichanga. Better choices for Mexican. read more

I just love this place my friend introduced to me a year ago. There literally is no place that I've found that seasons the food so well, and the meat is so juicy and tender I live in downtown richmond so it's a bit of a drive for me , but sooo worth it . read more

since covid, the prices have really increased, and the food has gone downhill. it's become more American, not even a Tex mex flavor. the last few times weve been, the food has been bland today we ordered just a medium cheese dip ($11) to go for a quick appetizer and it literally tastes like melted American cheese. you can see a few peppers floating but you can't taste them at all. in addition, they don't include chips with the larger dips anymore. (which they have in the past for us....so I assumed it would the same today) I didn't know until the dip was out that it didn't come with dip. --for a bag of medium chips it cost $4.75 now. -- I don't think we'll be back read more

We always have a good meal for the price at this restaurant and the staff is very courteous.

I have been here a few times and mostly came for their daily specials; which are AMAZING!!!! Well to me anyway...At the time of this post, I ordered the queso fundido and the 32oz Sangria. I was not a fan of the queso because it was rather soupy than thick. It was still soupy after I added more queso to the dish. But the Sangria was DELICIOUS! I've had hit or misses with Sangria and this was a hit and only $5.99! So I'll be back. read more

I love Mexican, but this place was fairly disappointing. It wasn't bad - just bland. The Margaritas were the highlight of the meal. Chips & salsa were okay - the white salsa was better than the red. Carne Asada wasn't particularly flavorful and the sides were meh. If you go, have an extra drink before dinner and you'll probably enjoy your meal more than I did. read more
