This Scott's Addition gem is truly a fantastic pick for Mexican food in our city. I've been a few times and I love the steak quesadilla. I've ordered their tacos in the past and really loved the carne asada and al pastor ones. This summer I attended a margarita workshop they were hosting with their tequila brand. I used to not be a margarita person, their margaritas changed me. Its the perfect amount of sweet and salty. You have to try one. There is a bunch of indoor and outdoor seating. You can order up front or with a QR code. Either way you'll get notified when to grab your food. It's a fast casual vibe. I'm a huge fan of Y Tu Mama and love this spot too.

Holy smokes! Visiting friends in RVA, we are eager to sample the food scene. Busy place and they…read morewere thrilled that we scored a reservation for a large party. The waitress (Camra?) was super nice and thoughtfully visited both ends of the table to get the orders correct. The gang started with some gorgeous creative cocktails. I had a lovely mint tea (hot, Tazo). We shared guacamole which certainly has a kick! The chips were crispy, thicker and prefect for the dip and tasting the trio of sauces. The regulars highly recommended the tacos and the sides. I had the broccoli; crisp, partly blackened, a bit light on the seasoning but blossomed with the darkest red sauce. The rare taco, amazing, truly rare. Seared on one side, the seared side very spicy. I had the beet salad side. Small cubes of beets in a creative sauce. A friend had the sweet potato and that was magnificently spiced! I must go back and try more!

A smaller restaurant there is seating for approximately 8 different parties up to six. No outdoor seating. Definitely recommend. Will see you there. Happy eating!!

Okay, maybe skip the last one. We love this place for the tableside guac, the ample portions of well seasoned chicken / beef / beans/ cheese / shrimp inside of the various offerings. We love the salsa they serve with chips, which is obviously house made as the heat level and amount of cilantro change from time to time. We love the manager checking every table. The prices are great and so is the service. If spicy stuff is your thing, I recommend the tacos a la diabla, and be sure to add the sauce to them. You will thank me.

I recently went to Pepe's Restaurant with a large party and tried the fish tacos. The service was…read morereally good like honestly the staff was very attentive and nice the whole time so I do want to give them credit for that. But the food just wasn't it for me. The fish tacos were pretty bland and the fish itself had a really strong taste that I didn't like at all. I also asked for light coleslaw and they gave me a lot of it so it kind of overpowered everything in the taco. I also got a sweet tea and it just didn't taste good to me like it tasted kind of off so I barely drank it. I didn't say anything at the time because I was with a big group and I wasn't paying so I just let it be but overall I was kind of disappointed with the food. The service was definitely the best part though.

Let me start by saying the atmosphere here is almost always pleasant. Whether you're picking up…read morefood or dining in, they send you off with a friendly "see you tomorrow," which always leaves a good impression. My go-to order is the Quesadilla Del Mar without onions, and I have never been disappointed. When I dine in, I usually ask for queso on top. If I'm getting takeout, I order the queso on the side. Either way, the queso is top tier. A couple of small opportunities for improvement: Parking can be tough when the place is packed. Also, the complimentary chips, salsa, and white sauce for takeout could use some balance. You get two servings of chips but barely enough salsa for one chip, which feels a little off. I'm actually quite in awe of this and the main reason I can't give them 5 stars. You're already great. Don't compromise that by being stingy on salsa when give so much in your dishes. Overall, this is my go-to spot for Mexican food. I don't even live close, but I gladly make the drive every time.

This is the fresh margarita (margarita fresca) fresh squeezed citrus with a dark tequila mixed with magic. Gelicio and Martin are the staples of the restaurant. You must come to Short Pump for this one! I love their Birria tacos, fajitas, and for a simple day their Al carte tacos. The service here is the best in town because they make it a point to get to know you and they do their best to know your favorites. This place is very clean and the first thing I do is wash my hands to see the condition of the bathroom. The bathroom is clean and always stacked. The glasses and plates are always clean as expected. And the environment is as clean as you can get it. I will definitely come back and I will definitely have another margarita

Its fine. Went here…read morefor the first time a few days ago. I was curious as to what the experience would be like as there are so many Mexican restaurants available to choose from in the RVA area. We went with some friends of ours; they say that this is their go-to Mexican restaurant. The service, location, ambiance, menu choices were all fine. However, my husband and I simply didn't enjoy the food as much as we do at other Mexican places here in town. I ordered the Enchiladas Mexicanas, and they overcooked the chicken so it was pretty dry. Husband ordered a few different enchiladas and stated that they were "okay" but that he preferred other restaurants' red sauce to theirs. Chips were overcooked, salsa was good. White sauce good. Our friends seemed to enjoy their food just fine. Maybe the dry chicken was a fluke, but I'd choose other Mexican places to this one myself in the future. It just didn't stand out amongst the glut of Mexican gems we have here.
