Update! Absolutely the best margaritas in the greater Richmond area. Modesto is the margarita…read moresavant! 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

Almost forgot, as you are seated tortilla chips and salsa are brought to the table, I enjoyed the humor of my server He was patient and knowledgeable of the menu, There is outside seating and music for ambience.

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.

When I walked in, I was famished and eager to try out the menu. What initially concerned me was the…read morelack of pricing on the menu items. This failed to prepare me for the shockingly expensive bill. A soup, 3 tacos and a burrito for $50?! I brushed it off, thinking the quality would make up for it. After receiving our meal well after other patrons who arrived after us, we dug in. I was horribly disappointed. Especially for the price. There was a lack of flavor and the food was horribly dry. I don't think I will be returning

Essentially what one expects around here for the more "commercial" Mexican restaurant experience…read more That said, a few things set this spot apart: - menu variation- not all the same stuff you at every Mexican spot. Very similar, but not the same. - service may even be faster than other comparable spots, which is noteworthy. - food quality is certainly better than comparable spots. Fresh tomatoes weren't green & crunchy. Cheese sauce on the entree wasn't overwhelming and overbearing. Just good, balanced plates.

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.

AMBIANCE: We came here during our break for our leadership…read moreconference that we had and it was actually a cool spot. It was spacious, a lot of booth seating area, it accommodated about 30 to 40 people nicely, so we were thankful for that. There is a ton of natural lighting, coming in from the windows, so that was really positive. SERVICE: Service was good, everyone was very nice, I do think that they were overwhelmed, and not usually used to having that many people to service in the middle of the day. At least that was my impression, but overall the service was good. FOOD: I really don't like to give bad reviews, and granted Mexican food is not my top choice but that's what the group wanted. Especially Tex-Mex food, this is not authentic Mexican food at all. So I just wanted some small things to bite on. I wanted appetizers. So I asked for the guacamole salad. You could literally taste that the guacamole that was served was out of a bag. They gave me lettuce, that could have been out of a bag as well, basically looked like rabbit food. It was not appetizing. I was like OK, well maybe they'll dessert will be good. My friend ordered the fried ice cream. How could that not be good? Well it wasn't. The fried tortilla was good, but the ice cream really did not taste good, and I think that's hard to do when it was simply just vanilla. The chocolate sauce, now that I'm thinking about it could have been old. And maybe that's why I didn't taste good? Really it was such a simple dessert, but it was not appetizing at all. The best thing there was the chips and salsa, which was of course unlimited.
