This is my favorite Mexican spot with authentic food in this area so I decided to hold a farewell for one of our military members here. I was impressed before with the food and customer service when it's just me and my husband, but this time we had 20 people. Let me tell you, it was the best large party experience I've had at a restaurant! We had two waiters taking orders, all our food came out at the same time, and all of our checks were separated and ready to go by the time we were ready to pay. It was the smoothest experience which made everything else so much more enjoyable. Best place for great Mexican food (recommend the Degollado Special and table side guac) and amazing customer service! read more

It has now been several days since this incident, and despite attempting to contact the restaurant through Instagram and email, I still have not received any response from management. My party of three spent over $300 dining here. Before briefly stepping away to the restroom, we asked our waitress to watch our table and bring us a to-go bag, and he agreed. When we returned, our food had been thrown away without permission. The manager refused to resolve the issue, was dismissive and unprofessional, laughed with coworkers, and escalated the situation by calling the police instead of handling a customer service matter appropriately. What made the situation even worse was that staff later retrieved our to-go container from the trash and attempted to hand it back to us, which raised serious health concerns. At this point, I have filed a formal complaint with the Virginia Attorney General's Office due to the lack of response and handling of the situation. read more

Went for a work lunch and got the Degollado Special with steak. The steak was a little overcooked but the flavor of the overall dish was on point and the portions were HUGE! Loved the cheese sauce on top and enjoyed the chips and salsa a little too much! Service was quick with our large group and the staff was nothing but friendly and accommodating. Will be back! read more

I decided to meet some friends for dinner at La Parrilla Mexican Grill when we walked in we were greeted by some wonderful smiling faces. They welcome us and they were able to see us right away. The waitress came and she took our drink orders and offered us some chips and dip. The chips and dip were excellent and freshly made. While she was getting our drinks, we decided on what food items we wanted. We decided on quesadillas and on Pollo Popeyes. The food came out, super quick and piping hot. The place was immaculately Clean and we really enjoyed ourselves. If you're in the area, please make time to stop by and enjoy some food here. It is very convenient to the mall and the service is very fast. read more

only down side I would say is price is high at first sight. However, DONT I mean DONT let that fool you.. this food and place is by far the BEST food, I have had and Worth every dollar. The staff is friendly and approachable. Not to mention the server gave ample time for ordering and even did an exceptional job anticipating the needs of our party. my only regret is I wish I could have given a bigger tip. The facility was very colorful and bright and most of all clean. I wish I could give this a 20. You HAVE TO try this place , you won't regret it read more

I enjoyed the food. I ordered chicken fajita which was seasoned well. I asked about which sauces came with the order and they were less then helpful. I paid $6 for sauce to later discover that sauce did actually come with the order. They were young but had a goofy energy and then started speaking Spanish to each other. See, once more of us learn Spanish that will eliminate them from talking trash about customers! :) read more

La Parrilla Mexican Grill - This was juicy, savory, very flavorful...omgeee!!!! Deeeelicious!!!!! You have to try the "Taco Salad Texano" - Mexican Near Me - Hampton, Virginia

I will never go here again! They have over charged me twice now. I let them go after a few years the last time and I still went back like a dummy and they did it again. The first time I'm not gonna go into... But this time I literally ordered a regular lunch entrée, but I was honestly testing them to see what they would do.... AND of course they tried to act like nothing was wrong when handing me the receipt for the full entrée price and not the lunch price. They literally want/expect you to pay the most for mediocre Mexican! This restaurant right here literally does anything to scrape by and make their dime. You have to pay attention to your receipt and also make sure what you order doesn't have anything that comes with it extra or you will be heavily charged... Also during lunchtime pay attention that they're actually charging you the lunch price. SMH I definitely left a bad taste in my mouth. -p.s. their margarita was 2/10! read more

Service is fast and professional, food is good prices have gone up but thats almost everywhere

It's a great spot for lunch or saying farewell to colleagues because of its spacious dining area. The cozy decor and lighting create a welcoming atmosphere. I tried the La Parilla steak burrito and was impressed with the quality of the meat, although it was slightly salty. The service was excellent - my drink was never empty, and the food arrived hot. Overall, I would definitely come back to try another item from the menu. read more

Came in for a quick bite out of town with no expectation. Christian M. Was our server. Sat immediately and he brought out the chips and salsa. Christian makes the best Arnold Palmers. I drank it down so fast it didn't make any sense. Without a word he came and took my drink and came back with a full cup and more chips. He's a mind reader! Food came out so fast and was absolutely delicious!!! Amigo dip was fantastic!! So much meat, I had the amigo tbone and that was tender and delicious, spouse had the fajitas which was tender and succulent also. We were so stuffed at the end we had to penguin walk out. Everything was authentic and made with love. Christian M service was so on point and the food was so good, the next time we are in the area we are making it a point to come back. We have him a good tip but Christian M needs a raise! read more

Pretty good service and the food has gotten better the last couple times, to a point that I felt like writing a review.

We came with a large party & the folks here were SUPER kind & accommodating!! The waiters were wonderful & Marcos, our waiter, was especially welcoming & very efficient! The food was very delicious as always! Do yourself a favor & give them a try!! read more

For Hampton, the food isn't bad. There is plenty of seating and the decor is your typical Mexican restaurant. My food wasn't bland like the rest of the restaurants in Hampton VA area. No one in my table complained about their food; however, no one raved about it. The portions were big, enough leftovers for lunch the next day. Not sure this is a place I would seek out on purpose or crave in the future. Someone in my party ordered an alcoholic drink but never received it read more

First time trying this restaurant. I looked online at their menu, & the two items that stood out to me were the chicken tortilla soup & the la Parrilla soup. The photo for the soup looked so tasty, so of course i ordered that. My photo doesn't do it justice, but oh my it was tasty & filling. It had chicken, pico de gallo black beans, avocados & it came w/ tortilla chips. read more

We were craving Mexican on a dreary day I ordered from here and had it delivered. I chose a huge burrito ( made three meals for me! ) I do wish there was more sauce on it, ended up being a little dry but still delicious. Boyfriend ordered the Tacos Carne Asada and we had refried beans. Of all the different locations, this is the best for flavor and portion size. You definitely get what you pay for! read more

We stopped by here on a long drive from NC to DC, and it was a great lunch experience. It has the feel of a larger American Mexican restaurant with plenty of space, fun decor, a big bar, all the chips and salsa you can chow down, and very friendly and helpful staff. I really enjoyed the homemade salsa as well as a homemade chipotle-flavored hot sauce they have here. The fajitas were so well seasoned and sizzling hot as well. We're glad we stopped by! read more

La Parrilla Mexican Grill - No menu at La Parilla. - Mexican Near Me - Hampton, Virginia

2wice I gave them an opportunity to correct the items. Both times the burritos chicken and steak were horrible. No green/red peppers doughy and they just slapped chicken pieces and steak strips all dry with cheese on top. The wrap was wet and soggy they didn't bother to grill the wrap This place at one time was perfect but they just don't seem to care anymore. Also, we detected a bit of a racist vibe. When people of their culture entered they seemed to treat them like family. But other cultures i.e. AA they were rather snotty and sneaky. As expensive as they are one would not expect such poor service. Be careful not to run yourselves out of business. read more

I love this place! Me and my family go here all the time. They have great vegan options for when we are fasting for religious reasons. They also have great chips and nachos. The service is nice and quick. They also have a cool little guacamole stand (that we get every time). Overall this is a great place and would definitely recommend. read more

I went here the other day when I needed to grab a quick meal. I didn't want anything too heavy, and no rice - I'm limiting my carbs (wink, wink). I got the La Parrilla salad which was good. It had chicken, shrimp, tomatoes, mushroom, pico, and cheese over lettuce, and a side of black beans. The beans weren't as tender as I'm used to, so I added them to my salad. The only thing the salad was missing was a heartier lettuce, but most Mexican restaurants serve iceberg lettuce. The server was nice. It did take awhile to get the food, which is odd for a Mexican restaurant. They have lots of seating, and accommodate larger groups. Good food and good service - I'd go back! read more

Every time I visit this place, I enjoy it. The only thing I could say, and why I took off a star is because every time you get fajitas they're always very overcooked another person at my table. Also got fajitas with the veggies in it and they were also over cooked aside from that. Everything else was pretty great and the server was amazing. read more

This was my first time here, we decided to give it a try because it was opened late and we had been craving Mexican. We were seated immediately and brought a basket of chips, side of salsa and a special dipping sauce that ive never had before. It was amazing! We ordered and the food came out very quickly, I ordered the Burrito Mexicanos, my youngest son ordered the California Burrito, and the oldest ordered nachos, my husband ordered the fajitas. The portions were huge and the food was delicious, the waiter checked on us several times during the meal and kept everyone's drink full. The restaurant itself has a fun and lively feel to it, and the menu is extensive so I can't wait to go back and check out more of the menu read more

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING food and service!!! Can I tell you they are ready for a crowd. We went after a sporting event at the convention center with a party of 35 and several checks around 7pm on a Saturday night. They sat us in a timely manner. They took all of our drink order and food orders and all out with NOT ONE ISSUE. The food was hot and as ordered! The waiters and staff were on top of it. Filling drinks, grabbing "extras" picking up plates. All the staff was friend and attentive. Definitely 10/10 would recommend! Go check them out. Great spot. read more

Menu item should have descriptions I ordered it for pick up. I've had the same meal from them over and over and they have a lunch special with the same name, but it's a completely different meal and there's no way to know unless you call and speak to somebody so overcharged And wasted money and didn't even get to eat. Thank you.. read more

I brought my family here last night for my son's birthday dinner and regret it so much. The host seemed lovely and walked us to a 6 seat table towards the back where I found a dead cockroach on my seat. My anxiety kicked in but because my son had picked this place I set my emotions aside and reassured everyone it was a common thing in Hampton, they're everywhere I hear. I showed the host and I saw the look on her face turn to horror so I found that comforting. Until she rushed another girl over to show her and ask her what to do, that other girl just tipped the chair to let it fall to the floor and she just giggled and shrugged her shoulders. I was in shock.. fully expecting them or someone to come back and at least sweep it up or clean my chair but no. Nothing. Will not be returning. read more

This is a great little place to grab a meal with friends and family...for so many reasons. First off, it is a very simple, but cute restaurant. Lots of color and ambiance. It has a very casual vibe. Staff is really friendly and helpful. Prices are reasonable and portion sizes are large. The food is simple and traditional but yummy and they have lots of options to choose from. We ordered 3 or 4 meals and an appetizer and everyone liked everything. They also have great drinks; I had the "Trash Can" pictured. This was one of my best dining experiences in the area and I would highly recommend giving them a try. read more

Ate here May 3. 2025 and the food was absolutely wonderful. we had a gray waiter and was sat within 4 mins of being there even with it being a busy night and our group having 10. Our kids loved it which means we will be back. 10/10 would recommend. read more

I've been here once before a long time ago for a friends dinner and didn't remember it to much. We usually go to Plaza but I wanted something a little different. The service was excellent we were seated right away, and the waiter was very attentive. The menu itself had a lot of choices, a lot different than other places I've been. I got a chicken and shrimp dish and let me tell you, you get tons of food for the money! My plate was absolutely delicious! My husband got a steak dish and he loved it. They do have a decent little kids menu as well. Their pricing is great in comparison to Plaza. The inside and outside of the restaurant is super nice, and it's really clean inside. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants a lot for their money and a great meal. read more

Definitely my favorite and only spot I go for my Mexican food fix. 1) order table side guac very simple but the best appetizer (PS always bring loose bills for guac tip) 2) Any food you get is amazing my personal recommendation- pork Carnitas 3) MUST ORDER A PINA COLADA! Comes in 3 Sizes, my pic is a medium! Definitely a good place to unwind after work or on a day off. You deserve it! Prices are good, atmosphere good also recommend coming on your birthday for the sombrero and birthday wishes! If you go I'll prolly be there sipping a pina colada read more
