This place was so cute! Our server was incredibly kind and welcoming. Chips and salsa to start like normal. The margaritas were large and strong. Food came out incredibly fast and it was very tasty. I had the mexican flag burrito, and it is enough for lunch tomorrow too. Highly recommend read more

My co-workers and I wanted some Mexican for dinner so we decided to give this place a try. The staff was friendly and stayed on top of making sure we had everything we needed. The food was very filling and delicious. I ordered something with steak, chicken, shrimp, scallops, rice, and mixed vegetables. I got cheese dip on the side to pour over the food once I mixed it up and it was great. The ambiance was very causal and smelled very good when I walked in. I'd definitely go back!! read more

Service is poor. There is no dedicated bar tender so don't sit at the bar if you want service. The white sauce they provide with the chips tastes like a version of ranch dressing. read more

Was pretty good!! Not my favorite, but would go back again in a pinch. Ambiance was the usual for a Mexican restaurant and it was fun to walk around TJ Maxx nearby after ordering too many margs! read more

As part of our quest to try all of the Mexican restaurants in Williamsburg, we ate at La Terraza on Richmond Road. The restaurant interior is a good size with lots of wooden booths and a bar. It has a bright and clean setting. For drinks, we had a mojito and a horchata. The mojito was a little too sweet for me. My husband was well pleased with his horchata. While we had our drinks, they provided chips and salsa for the table and offered to refill them too. They have a large menu. For dinner we had the Fajita Taco Salad, which was filled with steak, chicken and shrimp. I had to bring some home it was such a generous serving. We also had a combo platter that included rice, beans, a taco, a burrito, and an enchilada. Again, a large serving. Prices are really reasonable for the food and ok for the drinks. Service was friendly and efficient, with staff coming by to check on us and then clear our plates and offer boxes for the food we couldn't finish. Parking is right out front and free. read more

The guacamole was THE BEST i have ever had! I'm in town for three days & i know im coming back & getting another orde

This was my first visit to this, yet another Mexican restaurant, in Williamsburg. Our party of 5 included two children and Fernando A. provided friendly, attentive service throughout the meal. While the menu was extensive I went with my "standby" Fajita Taco Salad with a mix of steak & chicken (see photo). At about $12 this was a good value but the steak strips were definitely overcookedand chewy...a frequent and unfortunate issue in this dish. My friends enjoyed the portions, taste and value of their meals while the restaurant accommodated meals for the children easily. Overall, my first visit to La Terraza was very positive, especially in terms of service, prompt delivery, cleanliness and menu. I don't yet have a favorite Mexican restaurant in town, but this one would definitely be in the running. Give it a try. We'll be back. read more

La Terraza Mexican Grill - Fajita Taco Salad...Steak/Chicken...nice size, reasonably priced. - Mexican Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

Our monthly Ladies luncheon was hosted here and one server helped all of us, a group of about 15, some specifying what they wanted removed from the pre set menu. So amazing that she was able to get our drinks then rolled a cart out with our meals. I had a fajita chicken meal which came with three flour tortillas, a huge mountain of beans; I had requested black beans along with rice, pico de gaio, and sour cream. I also ordered supper to go, tacos birria with jus, and tacos pastor. Later on we feasted on the reheated tacos which were delicious. The restaurant was very spacious allowing all of us to enjoy camaraderie without any overwhelming music. I will return here with my husband. read more

I got the chicken tortilla soup which was good. Just the right amount of spiciness. I liked the rice in the soup and avocado. Will try to make this at home! read more

Second time being here in a few days. First time was on Saturday. Absolutely amazing. Fatima was an amazing server. I had chori steak mom had steak chili Verde, and we both cleaned our plates. I will 100% come back again. read more

Food & service are great. Easy dining, I like the seating by the bar. Prices are terrific. The only thing I would change, add other types of bell peppers, besides green bell peppers. Such as red, orange, yellow bell peppers. Thank You read more

The place is very clean. We had a chicken enchilada good quality meat and flavor. The beans are made the right way (with lard) that is what makes a good refried bean. I got a little concoction going. After the complimentary chips and salsa I ordered Spanish rice (very plain) and quacamole and street corn. This corn was the tastiest! I had the rice and layered some salsa, guacamole, corn & gobbled that right up! We got a flan, mediocre. The salsa had no heat but I suppose that's a personal preference. read more

Yuck. Food was cold and tasteless. Would not recommend this place to anyone. Yuck yuck yuck

We ate outside and it was a great experience. The salsa is first rate! I ordered a small quesadilla with chicken, onion and beans and my wife a tortilla soup. Both were delicious and very large read more

La Terraza Mexican Grill - A small quesadilla - Mexican Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

This is the first time I have order from them. I ordered through DoorDash. I asked for no rice, beans, or peppers in my Burrito Fajitas. I only wanted mixed meat, onions and extra cheese. It came with all three of the ingredients I didn't want. Can't eat it. I don't like getting food I ordered that I can't eat. I will NEVER order from them again. So disappointed because they are a well established restaurant in Williamsburg. read more

La Terraza Mexican Grill - Burrito Fajita - Mexican Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

This a great Mexican restaurant! La Terraza is your quintessential Mexican restaurant. They serve fresh salsa & whip dip to all tables with free refills. They're so good, it's hard to no fill up on them before your meal. I ordered the fajitas and they were delicious. My friends ordered chicken & rice, nachos, and tacos. The portion was so large for all of our meals, that we all have extras to take home. There is also a large section of drinks & margaritas on the menu. If you have a sweet tooth, fried ice cream is on the menu as well! The restaurant is in a really cute shopping center. So you can shop before or after your meal. There's also lots of parking spots available and lots of table's & booths inside the restaurant. So enjoy this place with your whole crew! The restaurant read more

La Terraza Mexican Grill - Carne Asada tacos on corn tortillas, with a side of rice & beans. Delicious. - Mexican Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

One of the best fajitas I have ever had. Cut, seasoned, and cooked perfectly. Our waitress was lovely, quick, and attentive. Food came out brisk and hot. Complimentary chips, salsa and horseradish sauce. Table-side guacamole is never my favorite due to it not being chilled. Definitely need to add more spice to the guacamole, salsa, and queso. The refried beans were delicious. The rice was a little dry but I love how they incorporated peas and corn (just 8 pieces don't worry). I understand the salt and pepper shakers are authentic but it was so difficult to get the salt out due to the rice covering the holes so I hope they can find some middle ground with at least the salt shaker. The playlist was so great and at the perfect volume. The restaurant was clean and spacious. read more

My family and I visit this La Terraza location on Richmond fairly often and typically enjoy the food. However, we visited the other day and were extremely disappointed. The Don Jose (carnitas burrito) barely had any meat it was drenched in toppings and sauce and hardly any rice or meat. The meat in the birria tacos were dry but the tortillas were soggy. The table side fresh guacamole was horrible. They used old avocado and tried to mask it with extra lime. It was BAD! read more

We are never disappointed by this restaurant . The food and the people are outstanding ! Amazing difference compared to everyone else ! I always leave with enough food for another meal which even tastes equally as good the next day ! Thank you for your great service in my town ! La terraza even has the best guacamole made at your table ! I love watching the sports and listening to the music too . read more

The food service were good. It's typical Mexican food no complaints. Restaurant appeared clean.

Visiting with family and happily ended up here! It smells great when you walk in! Good atmosphere, fun background music, and nicely decorated with dark warm wood..... the bar (marble??) is just beautiful Food: fantastic. Flavorful. Huge portions. Service: fast and friendly. Highly recommend! read more

This is a personal and family to-go Mexican restaurant in the Williamsburg area. The food tasted fresh, even once it was brought back home. I highly recommend trying their guacamole, it has a beautiful hint of lime that other restaurants can not perfect. The quesadilla was delicious but needed some more cheese to balance out with the chicken that was inside. Other than that we have no complaints, this was a delicious meal and highly recommended. read more

We had a great experience at La Terraza. My husband and I got the fajitas Texana and my daughter got the beef taco. Both meals were excellent and our server was great too! Definitely check it out if you are in the area. read more

Was visiting Williamsburg and craving for some good Mexican food . Thank god , we chose la terraza. Unbelievable is the word. The food was so so so so good and not so expensive too. We started off with fresh guacamole made by them:l. A guy came to table and made it live. This is probably one of the best gaucs I have ever had . So fresh and amazing taste. They also give chips and salsa as a compliment. Make sure u don't have too much of it , as it can fill ur tummy ;) dinner food was awesome . Chicken fajitas was out of the world. Veg chimichanga was super. Quantity was a lot for a person. We ordered 3 dishes for 4 persons and we still couldn't finish:) fantastic service and quick food . They also have a bar inside for some nice / relaxed drink. 5/5 I could even give them 10/5 ! read more

Most restaurants are nearly identical in terms of menu options and flavor. It's perfectly fine with a great bar.

Service was helpful, and the enchiladas were pretty good, but the fajitas were not good at all - sizzling, but under seasoned and tasteless. Also, the salsa was OK, but not spicy at all. Will not return. read more

No stars!! Service was horrible, food came & everything was greasy & over cooked, burnt edges. The waitress was not friendly, had horrible attitude, never going there again. read more

La Terraza Mexican Grill - Burnt nachos, chicken meat was greasy & tasted horrible. - Mexican Near Me - Williamsburg, Virginia

Stopped at this restaurant during a recent trip to Williamsburg, because it was right between W&M and our hotel and seemed to have vegetarian options--which they did! They have an expansive vegetarian menu, which I really really appreciated. Another awesome thing here is the service. Everyone was so friendly and they were able to seat us outside right away, no wait. The salsa that came with the pre-food chips was delicious. Unfortunately, my enchiladas were not as good. Don't get me wrong! They were fine. They weren't bad, and I did finish my plate. However, they were painfully underseasoned. The beans and spinach were so bland that if I took a bite of them without the tortilla or cheese on top, I couldn't even taste any salt. It was pure, unadulterated bean. (And spinach.) The guac that came with the enchiladas was similar - not great on its own. When I mixed everything together with generous toppings of queso (and helped myself to some fajita veggies from my mom's plate) the meal vastly improved. But I would have loved for the enchilada fillings to have some--any--spice. Stars are for service and salsa! read more

If I would give 0 stars I would. The food gave me food poisoning. I walked in and it smelt like bathroom and dirty sink water. I got their horchata and it tasted like sprite and sink water. Very unflavored. Would not recommend if you want to be sick the next few days. read more

Food was delicious, big portions and nice staff but we had a few hiccups. My teen daughter's order was messed up but she doesn't like to complain so she ate it anyway. The other issue was there were 2 burned fries at the bottom of our bowl of tortilla chips. Yuck! They apologized and gave us a new serving. The lighting was a little harsh (think grocery store), but the food really was delicious. read more

We were staying in the area and decided to try this place. They were going to close in an hour so we decided to just do takeout. I got a burrito with shrimp in it and it was amazing. It was also huge. The Spanish rice was amazing. The only downfall to the meal was the flan. They put it in a container for hot food which I found weird. I dunno if my flan was this texture in the beginning or it got cooked by the warm food since it was all in the same bag, butttt it was prob the worst flan I've had. The texture and flavor was not there. read more
