The restaurant was recommended to us by a local and our food was good and very reasonably priced. We chose the combo platter with an enchilada and tamale, served with rice and refried beans. This was very good. The masa of the tamale was particularly light and flavorful. Very good sauce on enchilada and tamale, good rice and beans, and the table salsa was delicious. Would recommend this restaurant if in the Marion area. By the way - great prices on cocktails and beer too. read more

So good :) i get the pineapple thing. Very delicious. Prices are great. Drinks are strong

We've been here a handful of times and customer service is always good. The food is always great.

On a cross country roadtrip and decided to stop at a local Mexican food joint right off the interstate. We read the reviews and saw the negative ones and thought surely they just had a one off experience. Nope. Our visit was consistent with the negative reviews. My wife got the cheese enchilada. Literally a glob of mozzarella cheese. The chili enchilada sauce tasted like they poured it out of a can. I got the grilled chicken and rice. They put this awful cheese sauce on it. The grilled chicken were tiny strips. I couldn't eat it. Don't waste your money. read more

Great food and great service! The rice was super tasty. My husband ordered the carne asada, it was a good portion and very delicious!

After 4 years and traveling 81 North, decided to try this place again. Big mistake. I ordered the Taco Salad with shredded chicken. What I got was a mess in a taco bowl. Everything including the shredded lettuce mixed together with a big blob of sour cream on top. And the shredded chicken? I found 3 pieces that I could detect. Why this place gets any 5 stars is beyond me. They server was nice and the iced tea was good. read more

Food was tasty Service was fast and price was less than expected. Plenty of parking. read more

Great service, food, and prices! Very clean facilities, and so convenient! (Excellent selection of mexican beers, as well)

My wife and I were visiting family nearby and brother-in-law knew I favored Mexican. He said there was a nearby place that always seemed to have a full parking lot, weekdays or weekends. We arrived around 6:30 PM on a Thursday evening. Sure enough the parking lot was almost full but we managed to grab one of the few remaining spots. Our party of four were seated immediately and seconds later hot chips and salsa arrived with the waitress and she took our drink order, along with an order of queso blanco, white cheese. I also requested hot salsa. Some places give you their regular salsa and a bottle of extra sauce to mix yourself. Nope, they brought a bowl of salsa with a nice kick. A large menu and full bar was impressive. Our family also ran into several families from their town and church. He asked what was good here and they all answered "Everything!" They decided on a Taco Salad for her and Burrito plate for him. My wife and I decided to try Dinner Special for two. This included a burrito, two tacos, a chili relleno, a tamale, a chalupa, an enchilada and beans & rice. This came on 4 plates! And the price was several dollars less than two individual meals. Wow! It was more than we could handle but we sampled each item, along with some great Southern Sweet Tea. Service was great and very quick, even with a full restaurant. Definitely recommended! read more

I ordered the #6, beef enchalada, taco, rice and beans for take out. Service was fast, too fast. The interesting thing is that the flavors weren't that predictable, usual mexican restaurant taste. But unfortunately, it just wasn't that good, actually not appetizing. I didn't finish it. My taco had a huge glob of mozerella in it, and I really just got the impression it was thrown together without a lot of care. I wouldn't go again. read more

Great place to eat. Great food, reasonable prices, very good service. The ambiance is awesome.

Went here on a trip with the hubs to ride the "Back of the Dragon" from Marion, VA to Tazewell, VA along the Appalachian mountains. We came back to Marion to stay overnight before returning home to NC. They have a vast menu, so if you are not familiar with Mexican food in their authentic name, it takes you a few minutes to decide what you want. They also have a lot of vegan and vegetarian options! There is something for everyone to chose. I ordered the 2 ground beef hard-shell tacos plate with rice and beans and a pineapple soda. The hubs ordered the fried quesadilla w/ham, beef and pork and a DR PEPPER! A note: there was a family birthday table (I assume) of maybe 20 guest next to us and despite that going on, the service was excellent and we received our food and refilled drinks quickly. I would recommend all my riding buddies going to the Back of the Dragon to stop here for delicious and affordable food (compared to what good food and decent portions we received). read more

the food is ok, just mediocre, the service is nice by waiters. The managers are really bad and inappropriate, both managers Leo and the short guy in glasses tried inappropriately in a sexual manner touch and squeeze my hands, called me miss nurse and other inappropriate names instead of addressing me by my name on multiple occasions. I tried to correct them but they just smiled and laughed unprofessionally. I had to stop going there because of them and their inappropriate sexual behavior. read more

Descended on them on a Saturday with a large group. They handled it perfectly and the food was excellent.

WOW. WOW. WOW. If you have dietary restrictions, you WILL find plenty of options here! They have a section of their menu dedicated to vegetarians, and you can make any of those meals vegan by requesting no cheese or sour cream! I ordered their veggie fajitas and died and went to heaven, only to return and eat more. DON'T GET ME STARTED ON THEIR SALSA. The perfect blend of spice and cilantro that had me ordering a cup of salsa to go! Huge portions for a great price! We had plenty of left overs for lunch the next day! read more

Very good food, and excellent service. One of the best choices in the town which has mostly fast food places.

We had take out dinner it was really delicious Mexican good. The chicken fajitas potion is large I'd get an extra tortilla or two next time. My husband had enchiladas those were great choice read more

The service was wonderful and food was amazing!! Hands down some of the best Mexican food we've had.

Driving back from a long day trip and needed a meal where we could be seated and not yelling into the clown's mouth. This showed up on Yelp with solid reviews so we put the address in GPS and were delighted to find a nearly full parking lot a good hour before dinner time. Food was more than plentiful! My husband and I shared one dish and still had some left over. Our dining companions ordered individual meals and took home quite a bit of food. Service was lovely, food came out exactly as ordered and was hot without burning our mouth as often happens when one is told the plate is very hot and be careful. Absolutely would stop again if travels take me past it again! read more

Stopped for a quick dinner here while passing through and not only were the prices amazing, along with the food, but we got our food not even 5 mins after ordering! For 2 meals and some cheese dip we spent $23 and ate in 30 mins. Great for a nice dinner or a quick stop, will definitely be coming back when I'm passing through again. read more

I used to absolutely love this place. But now I feel like it all tastes like canned red enchilada sauce. We've given it several chances, everytime it just gets worse. From terrible attitude from majority of them to raw chicken an gray tamales never ever again. read more

We ate there tonight. The food was great as was the service and price was reasonable.

Pino loco's fajitas was a great version of Taco's pastor. Fajitas with chicken, steak, shrimp, traditional fixings, and pineapple. Everything thing was presented in a half pineapple. Great service. Ferman was a very attentive server. read more

Mi Puerto - Deliciousness! - Mexican Near Me - Marion, Virginia

This is one of the best Mexican restaurants we have been to in the east. We are thru/hikers and were treated with the best service. Our server suggested the Carne Asada and a Chicken dish with sausage and pineapple. We also ordered the shrimp salad which was filled with delectable shrimp in almost every bite. read more

Easily one of the best ran businesses around. The ability to get in and out, even on busy nights, gives this establishment the + that comes after the A for its grade. Whether it's Leo, Fermine, Carlos, Christy or Luis, we always are welcomed and feel right at home. My favorites would have to be the piña loca or the Arroz Con Pollo with cheese dip and peppers. As they love to say when they see you often "See you tomorrow" read more

How do you rate a restaurant that you were kind of looking forward to because it was a total local dive in the middle of a small Virginian town, when you didn't really get to eat there because the power went out and the kitchen could no longer prepare our orders? But the facilities were very clean, the staff were very friendly and apologetic about the power outage. They didn't charge my father and me for the cokes that we had ordered. But since we only munched on the chips and salsa, I can't really comment on anything else. I was happy that they had some seriously hot chili sauce on the table. They also had, according to my father, some very authentic Mexican items on the menu. But, once again, the power went out and left us in a foodless and heaterless room. read more

Mi Puerto - a car parked in front of a restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Marion, Virginia

Traveling a lot in the past few days and we needed to have something fast but didn't want fast food. Found this place on a poor review of another Mexican restaurant so we stopped in. Food was great, service was super fast and friendly. This would have been five stars had we not ordered the flan. It was completely incongruous with the rest of the meal. It was truly disappointing, like it came out of a can. Not sure why they could not make an authentic flan. Hopefully they can treat their desserts as seriously as the rest of their food. Still definitely recommend. read more

Arriba! These guys are authentic and do a great job with food and ambiance. Had the Fajitas Texacana and some margaritas. Nice Spanish music to keep things upbeat, too. Ándale! read more

My wife and I came here to eat while visiting downtown Marion. She enjoyed the shrimp fajita lunch special and they were nice enough to let her switch out the beans and rice with French fries. I was not a fan of the dip they gave out with the chips- a combination of cheese and beans. It was just weird, and I would have much preferred salsa. Partially my fault for not asking. Service was good; if anything they came over too often to inquire about the food. read more

Passed through the town and found this gem. The lunch specials were incredibly well priced for the amount of food you get... we accidentally ordered too much for our table and had to take leftovers home. Would have given 4.5 stars if possible because the lettuce could have been better quality. We got the chicken enchiladas, shrimp chimicanga, huevos rancheros, beef fajitas and grilled salad. Personally thought the last three were the best. read more

Stopped here on a trip through VA and were surprised to find a GENUINE Mexican restaurant. The food was good and servings generous. Not all personnel speaks English but they understood what I wanted and what I wanted to avoid (spicy plates). The cost was very reasonable and I would stop here again. read more

Best salsa in a Mexican place. The food is very good. The service can sometimes be sketchy but the food is really really good. I would highly recommend. I got the burrito fajita and it was cover with a lot of cheese sauce, which is a major plus. read more
