    Birria tacos
    Skyler G.

    Truly the BEST Mexican restaurant around. We have never been disappointed. Everything about it is great - the food obviously, drinks, prices, and the wonderful staff. We live 25 minutes away and will still come here over anywhere else. I highly recommend the birria tacos. This is the only restaurant that makes them correctly and they are delicious every time. I also recommend any of the margarita drinks, they are amazing!

    We are newer to the area and before we moved, we had a family Mexican restaurant that was our spot!…read moreAnd since moving, we have been looking to replace our go to spot and this place is definitely the new spot! We would look forward to bringing our son back. The food was great and full of flavor!! service was exceptional, and you can tell they put their heart into it! And the restaurant itself is very cozy and comforting, and I look forward to celebrating future events there!

    I was so excited to try this place after seeing all the photos/videos on their social media but we…read morewere unfortunately disappointed. I think a lot of the issues can be fixed with new wait staff. We were one of two tables and service was extremely slow. It didn't look like there were many people working so we didn't mind the slowness. My friend ordered a medium margarita and they brought him a small .. when he told the waitress he ordered a medium she said -- oh we only have small or large ... again, not a huge deal but you should probably tell people that if they order a medium. Chips and salsa tasted great but they are super stingy with the sauce! The little bowls of sauce are so tiny and for four people it went super quick. And with slow service it was difficult to get more. The music in the restaurant was BLARING. I usually would never notice something like this but it felt like my table was yelling at each other to have a conversation. I have never been in a restaurant with such loud music. It was strange. THE FOOD: this was the best part of the entire experience but still was not great. Everything lacked seasoning and enchiladas and tacos were soggy. Wasn't bad food but wasn't great. Chips and salsa tasted the best. Lastly, we sat around for probably 30 minutes with our check wondering if we were supposed to wait for our waitress or pay at the register. We finally decided to go up to the counter and ask someone to check us out. Sadly we will probably not be back. Other Mexican restaurants in the area have much better food with better service.

    Went here for the first time this past Saturday night for a last minute birthday celebration. We'd…read morehad plans to go to another restaurant in Norfolk but it was closed the whole weekend for Labor Day so had to make a last minute decision on where I wanted to go instead! I have been wanting to try El Korita for a couple of years now so figured this would be a perfect time, I'm sure glad we did! We got there an hour before closing and even though the place is pretty tiny, they were able to seat our party of six with no wait time. Put two tables together for us and quickly got our drink orders and brought us three baskets if chips with both the red and white salsas to accompany them. Red salsa was delicious, I'm not a fan of the white sauce in general but the white with the red together was pretty tasty. They also took our food order quickly and were patient with our requests to change a couple of things with the order. Food came out really quickly, very hot and freshly made, and delicious!!! Our party tried the steak and chicken fajitas, enchiladas Mexicanas, loaded nachos, shrimp taco salad, steak tacos and steak quesadilla. Everything was delicious and really reasonably priced and they never rushed us through, even though by the end of our meal it was closing time. Highly recommend this place, we'll definitely be back!

    My babe and I dined here for Cinco De Mayo. We heard about other Mexican cuisine restaurants and…read morehow busy they were on this day, so I had hoped this place wasn't too too busy. We arrived about 6:00 pm and we waited about five minutes... to our surprise another party was getting up from the table. After the waitress cleaned the table, we were sat after 8 minutes of walking in. Business was booming! We saw only three workers up front, but they all were on the move non stop. I ordered chicken and beef soft tacos and my babe ordered the fajitas. We both enjoyed our food and ate it all! He ordered a cocktail and I, a margarita. The margarita had too much mix in it and was not good at all... I am taking away the one star. The free chips and salsa... the chips were delish! Not sure if they were fresh or store bought. The food was plentiful and overall we will return if we are in the mood for Mexican. This mom and pop shop closes early, but if you are in the area they are worth checking out. Parking is available on the street. I did not see a garage nearby, but on this day parking was not an issue for us. Have fun and enjoy life :)
