It's been about two years since we moved to Brambleton, and we've visited Parrando's Ashburn many times. We keep coming back because of the great atmosphere, delicious food, and, most importantly, the outstanding service. The hospitality is truly exceptional, and every visit has been a wonderful experience. Highly recommend. read more

Parrando's Tex-Mex Grill - Tex-Mex Near Me - Ashburn, Virginia

Parrando's has become our go‑to Tex‑Mex spot for a reason. The ambience is always pleasant and comfortable, especially around the bar area where we prefer to sit. It has that perfect balance of lively and relaxed, making it easy to settle in and enjoy lunch.. We always stick to our usual -- the large margaritas and the fried chicken wings with Mexican rice -- and they never disappoint. Honestly, this is probably the best fried chicken in all of NOVA. Crispy, flavorful, and consistently excellent. It's the kind of dish you never get tired of ordering. What really sets Parrando's apart is the service. Sitting at the bar is a must for us because the bartenders make the experience. Josue has always been fantastic, and now with Alex -- who came over from Los Carnales -- it's even better. Having two of the best bartenders in town behind the same bar was a great surprise and makes every visit feel even more welcoming. Parrando's continues to deliver great food, great drinks, and great people. It's the kind of place you look forward to returning to every time. read more

Decided to do a carry out order since I was working in the area and didn't pack anything for lunch. Highly recommend their steak fajitas, very good and a reasonable amount of food for the price. I ordered online and my food was ready and hot at the time of pickup. Excellent service and very friendly staff. Would happily return. read more

What a great restaurant! I loved all their meals were so delicious and tasted so fresh. Their menu is huge so everyone's bound to find something they like. I was amazed that the seafood soup was so delicious, highly recommend. There's plenty of seating, the restaurant is huge. For birthdays you HAVE to come here! It's such a hoot. They give you a sombrero and have a whole big song. Our server was super kind and attentive. She was great! read more

We frequent Parrando's. What's happening? First of all if you want a refill on your CHIPS REFILL there's now an EXTRA CHARGE, Really.Also the basket is not full and the chips mostly broken. Spending $21 for 3 enchiladas and charged for extra chips. This meal tonight was disappointing. The shredded beef was dry however the chicken tasty as usual. We arrived at 4:30. We discovered there's a Happy Hour Menu which we were not offered and I found out from seeing other patrons sitting near us. What's going on? Is there new management? Juan, in your response below so as not to be a surprise to the customer 1. IT SHOULD BE NOTED ON THE MENU 2. PLACE A PLACARD ON THE TABLE AND 3. THE COST OF A CHIPS REFILL. read more

Parrandos is a great spot to grab tex-mex food in the area and I very much enjoyed my experience. The service was attentive and friendly, but not overbearing. There was a lot of seating in the bar area, so we took advantage. There was a lot of seating, and as many have commented it shouldn't be a problem. The margarita was strong and tasty. I liked that it wasn't overly sweet, unlike many margaritas you get at Mexican restaurants. I ordered the 3 tacos and tried various ones, each delish! I enjoyed the seasonings and sauces and the portion sizes were perfect. read more

Consistently flavorful food. Tacos Reynosa, my favorite, with pineapple and avocado. My wife loves the taco salad with large pieces of both seasoned beef and avocado. Manager Homer stopped to chat. Started here bussing tables. Pleasant and engaged. Likewise our server Claudia. read more

So upon walking in we were met with a friendly smile and immediately sitting down we were met with chips and salsa. Chips and salsa 10/10 - extremely fresh you can tell they make everything in house. The salsa was fresh chunks of tomatoes and onions so good. Frozen Strawberry Mango Margaritas 9/10 -Extremely great flavor and smooth. Could've been slightly stronger in my opinion but overall amazing Steak Fajitas 10/10 -By far my favorite place to get steak! It's always cooked to perfection no matter if you get it medium or well done. It melts in your mouth and so tender and flavorful. I love that they make their tortillas in house as well because homemade tastes way better It's a laidback, friendly atmosphere and the restaurant is very very clean even the bathrooms so it makes it way better coming here. read more

Parrando's Tex-Mex Grill - Strawberry Mango Frozen Margarita - Tex-Mex Near Me - Ashburn, Virginia

Enjoyed dinner at the Ashburn Parrando's. Great food, great service. A tad loud. Disappointed to hear they are now charging extra if you request more chips or salsa. I'd rather they keep the rice and beans to offset cost of extra chips/salsa. read more

Parrando's is a Tex-Mex grill in Ashburn known for it's delicious drinks and Tex-Mex menu. My coworkers and I went here for happy hour. The waitress was nice, but she didn't really give us the happy hour menu and the prices online were incorrect. However, the frozen strawberry margarita and frozen mango margarita were still flavorful and yummy. Also, the wings were a little salty and the guac lacked seasoning. Additionally, the ambiance was average for a Mexican restaurant, but it was a nice place to go out with a big group. read more

The food, as always, was amazing. The weather was phenomenal: 78 degrees in early March!!! and we got to sit outside, but it's frustrating that we are NEVER allowed to sit on the other bigger, brighter, side of the patio due to staff shortages. UGH. Our server, Claudia, was so amazing: Cheerful, attentive, our orders all accurate, even with 4 separate checks. I saw there was only 2 servers on a day with predicted great weather. Hello owners? Anyway, I've brought several people here over the years to introduce them to PHENOMENAL Mexican food and NONE have been disappointed. The pico/ salsa and chips are incredible- like none around. I've tried several items and all are exceptional. My sister raves about the seafood soup, I love the quesadillas and huge salads. Don't ever close! Thank you again Claudia!!! read more

My wife and I had dinner there on 1/23/2025. The server brought chips and salsa right after we were seated. Chips and salsa was tasty. Nothing really stands out. My wife had the steak burrito. Steak was very tender. The burrito was flavorful. Delicious. I had the crispy Tacos with ground beef. Tacos were flavorful. Delicious. I asked for hot sauce. The server brought homemade jalapeño, habenero hot sauce. It had some heat which I enjoyed. We both had rice, refried beans on our plates. The rice was tasty. The refried beans were creamy. A delicious meal. Our server was attentive. We will be back. read more

Their carne asada fajitas are the best. But the other items I've had on their menu haven't been as good. Definitely recommend their fajitas.

Great lunch as always this week with my sister at our visit. Jaciento our waiter was fabulous and very attentive to our requests. Service and Food is always so good. read more

My favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. I have had almost everything on the menu and there isn't one dish that isn't tasty and different from the other Tex-Mex wannabes in nova. I think it's related to Rangos in Tyson's. The service is great and the drinks are strong and delicious. It can get loud but that's what tequila does to people. read more

Great food but average service and inconsistent pricing. We were all ordering off the website happy hour pricing, and the servers saw we were ordering off the happy hour menu, but when we got the receipt we were unaware that the pricing had changed. The current website pricing is considerably cheaper than the menu provided post provided check. If I had known the prices were more expensive than provided I don't know I'd have ordered as much. The ambience is average. We did have two birthdays but they only brought us stuff for one person. The tostones were very good though. read more

Our first time at Parrando's. The service was excellent. Our server was new, but he had obviously been well trained. The food was delicious. Everything came out exactly as we had ordered. It was piping hot and tasty. The combination chicken and steak fajitas were amazing. We will be back soon. read more

Amazing food, great vibes and nice servers! Our go to place and so glad it's easy to get to! Definitely must try!

Well,I would say it's should be rather 3.7 stars,but we left happy and warm after dinner on a brutally cold night in January. Service was very friendly and attentive,atmosphere was very pleasant and people on the bar looked happy and satisfied. Food was good,not outstanding or phantasmic,but solid quality. I ordered Camarones Jalisco and had a choice of 2 sides. Portion was pretty decent,even though I didn't have any appetizer. Shrimp could be a little larger and a little juicier,but nothing was wrong or not tasty. My family liked seafood chimichanga with shrimp and scallops,but proportions were not even,was much more shrimp than scallops inside. This is a neighborhood place,I happy to have them 10 minutes away from my house and will be back sometimes soon. read more

This was my second time coming to Parrando's and I will keep going! The food is fresh, hot and extremely delicious. The drinks are great, as well! The service is amazing, as well. The ambiance is pretty chill so can dress up or dress casually. Either way you'll be back for another visit! read more

Dont come here today. No specials today!! They removed the happy hour menu!! All drinks are small size for regular price.

Came here on a Friday night for a quick bite. I sat at the bar and ordered a Pineapple frozen daiquiri and chicken chimichanga. The daquiri was delicious, but would have preferred it to be a lot stronger than it was. The chicken chimichanga was okay; it was a little bit bland for my taste but was passable. Portion was pretty good. It came with the usual sides of refried beans, Mexican rice, sour cream, pico, guacamole and some lettuce. The service was great. I didn't have to wait long to get some complementary chips and salsa. I had ample time to choose what I wanted to eat, but didn't have a long wait to put in an order. The wait staff are friendly and patient. They were really busy, but they always made sure to circle back to me. I came in around 1800, so I think after 5, they get really busy. It seems like they are a popular place for a Friday night especially for some stressed out professionals. Haha. Very chill place even on a busy night. Recommend for drinks, but maybe not if you're just wanting to eat. 4 stars for excellent service and tasty drink. read more

I love this restaurant. It's hands down one of my all time favorites! The service is always excellent, the food is unbelievable and it's just a fun atmosphere. I definitely recommend it. read more

We had the best food and service I've had in a long time. Coming from a couple who worked in the service industry, we know what to look for. The food is so good, it tastes amazing, don't have to rave, you will see when u eat. Above all, the service was impeccable. Our server didn't push anything on us, gave us room to eat our appetizers before we decided to order, which is a nice change. Going out for dinner doesn't always have to be an ordeal. Sometimes you just want apps and drinks,. Read the table, u will make more money! read more

Carne Asada was so chewy I couldn't eat it. Waiter didn't seem too concerned. The fish tacos were fried stripe, not that good. The margaritas were great. read more

Beware of this place. We ordered 2 fajita dinners and only received 1 set of tortilla with just 3 tortilla. We brought this up to the server and she gladly brought out another set. Here comes the check. We were charged for the second set of tortilla that should have come with the second fajita dinner! Not to be confrontational, I just paid the check, leaving about 20% tip BEFOR tax and thought everything was good. Here comes the online bank statement. They charged me $98 instead of the $95 I signed on the check!!!! COntacted management, and they claim the will make it right offering 2 $50 gift cards and that they can mail it to me. Well CRTICKETS-never heard back from them. Contacted VISA and got the difference back. As per VISA, I could have open a credit card fraud case but decided to let it slide. read more

We went there last night to celebrate an occasion. Arrived early, happy hour timeframe. Beautiful place. The food was amazing. We ordered the trio dip and ceviche to start. Outstanding. Their chips and salsa are great. Their tortillas are freshly made. We also had steak fajitas, a taco salad, and a burrito for our main courses. So much food, generous portions! Let's talk about their margaritas. They're really, really good and appropriately strong (meaning not watered down). They even garnished them with an infused frozen lemon. Delicious. Absolutely recommend. When we were leaving, the place had really filled up. Although it's huge, there are probably some nights where you'll need a reservation. Great experience. I can't remember our waiter's name, but he was OUTSTANDING and friendly - he made us feel so welcome. We were a three-top in the bar by the window on Thursday, Oct. 16, 2025. Really nice guy - he was also a bartender and they have a full, beautiful bar. We'll be back. read more

Parrando's is my families favorite Tex-mex spot in Northern Virginia. We've been coming to Parrando's for years now - and every single time, it does not disappoint! The service is amazing - all those involved in the process are very welcoming and make sure we are good. The food is beyond delicious, it's so good. Hands down one of the best tamales de lotes that I've ever had!!! They have lots of space so if you plan on having a very big dinner - they are able to accommodate. We had a party of 30 yesterday, and they did such a great job! we love Parrando's, we always go for birthdays or a random Saturday morning for desayuno. Thank you Parrando's family/team for always making our time there so enjoyable read more

Service was great and the food came out very quickly and was hot. Quality of the food was decent, but definitely hurried which showed on the plates. Server was awesome, but for the prices, quality of food should be better. We wouldn't have minded waiting longer for a better quality product. Overall I would recommend this Mexican restaurant over any others in the area as the ambiance is really cool inside. read more

Love the skinny margs here and the tortilla soup is sooo good. Go to Mexican place in loudoun.

Made a quick weekend in VA, and my partner saw a Tex-Mex Restaurant nearby. We love this cuisine and the food looked AMAZING!! SO, we stopped in with our big appetite (and hunger pangs ). We were not disappointed! The staff was very friendly, attentive and accommodating. Mann from the time we entered the restaurant, it was great! The menu is extensive a tad in the pricey side, but portions were worth it! Everything was seasoned and flavourful. The drinks were not skipping any "adult juice"! The ambiance was lovely and they also have an outside patio. We even doubled back by to hear the love music playing! Staff looked the part of this classy Tex-Mex, they smelled nice, well groomed and they all wore gloves as they prepared food and drinks! Oh, did I mention they Mahe the flour tortillas fresh and hot!? D-Licious!!!! read more

I have to admit this is the best Mexican Restaurant by ambiance, service, food and overall experience. Their competition has nothing on it and is simply because of the service. The food is flavorful, the music is phenomenal, is well organized and your food comes out fairly quick. Josue AKA 'chocolate' will give you the best service at the bar and it will be such a good service that you'll become a regular at Parrando's. Even the food runner Mr. Mencho is a phenomenal and honorable gentleman as well, he will treat you exceptionally good too. I've been a regular for over 3 years already. read more

I have nothing but great things to say about my experience here! We came in as a party of 25 with no reservation. We were sat almost immediately and quickly waited on. The waiter was very professional and friendly. He did a great job handling such a large group. The food was made quickly and it was very fresh. Everything was delicious! The drinks were really great too! Absolutely no complaints. read more

If you're in the mood for Tex-Mex, this is the spot to checkout. Since Cinco de mayo was around the corner, I really wanted Mexican but of course, everyone also had the same thought. So I ended up here a few days later to get my fix. The ambiance is nice! They have Mexican decorations all over but it's not too in your face. The restaurant is very spacious and can accommodate large parties. The food here is wonderful. I'd have to say it beats Uncle Julios. We started off with one of my favorite appetizers, some Sweet Corn Tamale's which is served with sour cream. I then got an order of Carne Asada which came with a side of rice and beans, pico de gallo, sour cream, guac, and flour tortillas. This was cooked to perfection and came out sizzling on a hot plate. The service here was great. The servers were attentive and came out with drinks before you asked for refills. They were friendly and made it a pleasant experience. If you're in the mood for Tex-Mex, I highly recommend you check these folks out! read more
