    Soooooooo so good. You must get the bean and cheese tamales with chipotle cream sauce. . Inside was cute and festive. This is a must stop!!

    Amazing Authentic Food & Taste is 10/10! Best Tamales I have had in quite a while. Fast Service and loved the festive decor.

    Really disappointed in these reviews because they give this place a low rating when it doesn't deserve that at all. This is a mom and pop shop and if you want good food you need to pay for it. $5 for an elote isn't the worst we've seen... try $10 for ONE where we live. And it was delicious. We should've got three. The gorditas were authentic and absolutely delicious. This place is authentic, they are doing a great job and Berea is soooo lucky to have them. We tried a place outside of Berea in Richmond and paid restaurant pricing and not even close. Again, rather my money go local and this place is the place to go. We will be back one more time before we leave as we are here on vacation. Side note: biracial family here who knows Mexican food.

    Gordita!!

    Food was amazing! Very friendly people. Pork tamales and shrimp tacos are worth the trip.

    We moved down here from IL and we were looking for a good local Mexican restaurant. There are alot…read moreto choose from in Richmond. Unfortunately, even though this place always seems to have alot of cars in the parking lot, it was not good. The server was really nice - fast and friendly. The indoor decor was pretty cool. But we went there for good mexican and the food was really bad. It wasn't even mediocre as I can make better mexican at home. We had the Guadalajra and the Vegetarian Combo A along with the Beef/Chicken Taco. The food was overwhelmingly bland. Every single item lacked flavor. As if they didn't season anything at all. The beans were a pile of mushed beans, with no actual bean chunks and no flavor. No garlic, no salt, no butter - no flavor at all. Same with the chalupa and the enchilada. The enchilada sauce was bland, almost like a base tomato sauce. The meat didn't have any flavor at all. The Guadalaraja (chicken burrito and chicken enchilada) - which hubby had said that his was pretty meh. He also said he didn't need to go back there again. And later finally admitted it was pretty bad. Sorry, but I can't in good conscience recommend this restaurant to anyone.

    Best fajita nachos I've ever had, big enough portion to share. The guacamole was delicious also…read more Very filling. The restaurant was clean and very well decorated. Very cute and family oriented. Our server Omar was quick and friendly

    Drove out to Richmond to meet some friends for dinner…read more We ordered some wings and choriqueso for an app 10/10. I always like to try wings at Mexican restaurants and they are always great. My friend ordered the molcajete and everything was super tender and it came with a house sauce at the bottom of it to give it extra flavor. It has a variety of meats and fried cheese and a cactus piece on it. Definitely big enough for two and unique! I ordered the carne asada, my piece came with more fat than I'm used to. Although the flavor was great. I paired it with a michelada and it came out a little spicy. The service was great they were on top of it. The inside of the restaurant was gorgeous too, very colorful and cozy. Seats were comfortable, overall a good dinner experience.

    I has seen several friends and foodie folks on the interwebs talk about this "Mexican at the Mall"…read morelocation, so I decided to hop out and see what the fuss was about. I judge every trip to a new Mexican place by their version of the Speedy Gonzalez. This is a taco, an enchilada bean or rice. I had the beef version of this here, while it was solid, it did not blow my socks off. Beef was seasoned well, everything was piping hot and the taste was pretty bland overall. The refried beans were very tasty and the little bit of cheese on top was a great touch! I did not care for the salsa and chips. It didn't have much zip to it or any onion or cilantro flavors that I like. Chips were thick but warm and sprinkled with salt. I was there in the middle of the day and the place seemed a little dark. Service was fast and friendly. I will give it another whirl and try something different. But there are other Mexican places I will try before I go back to this one. Will give them an shout out for putting the crunchy taco on a bed of lettuce.
