    Lunch Fajitas Sides
    Casey S.

    If you're looking for delicious American style Mexican food, this Plaza Azteca is a great place to go! They provide you with chips, salsa, and white dip as well as free refills. Be careful though, they're so good it's hard not to just fill up on them. The menu is full of appetizers, quesadillas, salads, burritos, tacos, and enchiladas. Plus, they have a lunch menu with smaller portions at a discounted price. Trust me, the portions are still quite generous! I got the lunch size chicken fajitas and still had plenty of leftovers. My family also order the steak burrito and spinach enchiladas. We enjoyed every bite. The restaurant is quite spacious and is filled with plenty of booths and family's so you can enjoy its with a small group or a huge party.

    Came here with family to see celebrate a birthday. The servers were super nice, attentive, and the wait for food wasn't long. The location is spacious and I like that their decor is consistent throughout the whole restaurant. The food itself is huge in portions, but I find myself extremely puzzled as to why they put a lot of these fix-ins on top of the burrito. It makes it super soggy and hard to eat, especially with a fork. To be honest, I mostly deconstructed my burrito because of all these reasons together. All in all, this place is pretty OK.

    Lunch portion burrito carnita.

    It's been nearly 10 years since the kids and I have been here. It use to be our go to Mexican place when we lived in the area. I feel it's a bit "bougier" then the average Mexican place with a nicer menu and food presentation. The lunch portion was very generous and my daughter and I weren't able to finish everything( we big eaters too). Her burrito was full of carnitas. Maybe it was because if the delicious Horchata drink that filled us up a bit before the meal's arrival. The drink had a lot more ice then needed though. Their tomatillo hot sauce is the best of all the local places I have had. We came for a late lunch so it wasn't very busy, but this place use to be packed in the evenings. The kids really enjoyed it. When asked how many stars out of 5- Got a "6" and a "10". My kids need to re learn how to count it seems.

    Used to visit this place often for happy hour, but we weren't too happy this hour we visited. Came here for a late birthday celebration. First table, the bench was super wobbly. Second table, the table was super wobbly. Third table, all was well, haha. Queso is top tier! I actually love all of the options they have especially with the combinations menu when you can have a bit of everything. Couldn't find exactly what I wanted, so I just order a cheese quesadilla with rice and beans on the side which was easily accommodated. Major problem were the drinks. Ordered a strawberry daiquiri with pina colada and it just wasn't tasting right the first time. Sent it back and though it tasted better, it still wasn't hitting right. Still finished it though (of course). Our waitress was just okay. Wouldn't go out of my way to visit here again. 3.5 rounded down.

    10/10! I had the molcajete and everything was flavorful. The margarita was ok (maybe the flavor not my taste) but I'll try a different one next time. Def coming back because the service was great and food did not disappoint. Decor was super nice

    Best margaritas in Chesapeake. Chicken Fried Rice is a family favorite. We also love the Texas fajitas. We are definitely regulars.

We had plenty to take home for another meal since the servings were a good size. This location of Los Primos in the Mt Pleasant Shopping Center in Chesapeake is family friendly and has lively music playing at a low-moderate volume. We like the service and atmosphere, and we appreciate that we don't have to shout across the table when we're enjoying dinner and conversation.

Thhe service is on point! The Ambiance is on point! The attentiveness the drinks I cannot complain! I'm a margarita girl and the Margaritas here did not disappoint especially their Ranch Water. My favorite here is the classic quesadilla and you can choose your own protein. The first time I chose chicken and this last time which was on Sunday I chose the shrimp and added some fresh jalapenos... divine! My husband loves the fajita tacos I think that's going to be his go-to meal When We Dine here. The parking not an issue at all plenty of parking it does get busy around 6:30 7:30 on the weekend and on Wednesday which is 899 fajita nights. Now I will admit you on this night in particular I did get the steak fajitas I wasn't a fan of them but I still tore them up! The quantity that you get for 899 super super duper:] So pack your patience if you come on one of the busy nights. Today being Tuesday as I'm typing this review it's Taco Tuesday so tacos are a dollar and 50 Cent after 5:00 p.m. so I'm sure this night is going to be busy. Nevertheless it's worth visiting and priced just right! Have fun and enjoy life :)

We were sat immediately around 630 on a Friday evening. We received chips and dips before I could even sit down! Our server promptly greeted us and drinks were ready within minutes. So far, so good. For dinner, hubby had the Vegetarian E which came with a burrito, quesadilla and chalupa, daughter had the kids quesadilla with beans and I initially selected the shrimp bowl. Our food took about 15 minutes. Both quesadillas were barely warm and the cheese wasn't even melted. The refried beans were loaded with red pepper and too spicy for my child. My shrimp bowl was overwhelmed by cheese and aioli that I couldn't stomach it. Our server kindly let me order something else so I selected the shrimp taco salad. It arrived shortly thereafter but was also so greasy it made my stomach turn. 2 stars just for service. 0 for food. Overall, this meal was an unfortunate waste of $50.

We started the night with drinks: I went for a cold Modelo, while my friends both ordered margaritas, and wouldn't stop raving about how good they were! For appetizers, we shared the Union Trio! Fire roasted tomato salsa, creamy guacamole, and queso served with crisp tortilla chips. All three were fresh and delicious, a great way to kick off the meal. For my main, I mixed things up with a taco trio! Carne Asada (marinated steak, onion, queso fresco, avocado, cilantro), Chicken Tinga (marinated chicken, refried black beans, avocado, greens, queso fresco, cilantro) and Blackened Mahi (mezcal pickled onion, red cabbage, red pepper pico, chipotle sauce, cilantro). The blackened mahi was my hands down favorite. It was super flavorful with just the right amount of heat. My friends tried some awesome dishes too! One had the Coconut Curry Mahi (blackened mahi, jasmine rice, edamame succotash, with a rich coconut curry cream sauce) and the other had the Duck Confit Taco (with cherry salsa, pickled carrot salad, and cilantro-lime creme). Our waitress was phenomenal and definitely suggested great choices. If you're in the area and craving something a little more elevated than your average Mexican spot, Union is absolutely worth checking out. Great food, tasty drinks, and a stylish atmosphere!
