Went here for dinner Monday around 5:30 pm. No wait time and the restaurant was pretty empty. Service was quick; immediately offered chips and salsa as well as had our drink orders taken. Not too bad of a wait for our food. Our waitress was very friendly and nice. The atmosphere was comfortable with the dim lighting and music playing in the background. I started with the Watermelon margarita (10/10) it was refreshing and actually decently strong too. For food, I decided to try their Seafood chimichangas (8/10) they come either soft or fried; I chose fried, but because they're smothered with lobster bisque, the tortillas were soggy regardless. Overall, I did enjoy the flavors and the creamy lobster bisque smothering the chimichangas, I just think maybe some spice or cooked peppers were missing. Definitely one of my go to spots for sure. I'll be back soon because they have some new holiday seasonal drinks out and I didn't see the sign until I was leaving, so now I have a reason to go back soon! My overall rate of experience : 9/10 read more

We decided to have lunch at the outlets after shopping. Guacamole was ordered and made right in front of us. I ordered the Biarria sandwich and my friend ordered the shrimp tacos with rice. The bread was soft and spongy it did not get mushy when dipping in the broth. The food was flavorful and delicious. The music was not too loud. We could talk and listen to the music. There was a robot bringing out food. read more

Plaza Azteca - Shrimp fried rice - Mexican Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

Mexican restaurant onsite at Norfolk's outlet mall. Food is just ok, not raveworthy, mostly paying for convenience. Interior flexes lots of faux-grass features to mute the otherwise industrial space; indoor and outdoor seating, eat in or takeout, lunch and dinner menu, along with a full bar with daily drink specials. Wife raved over her raspberry margarita rocks ($9) both in flavor and value. For higher quality in Norfolk, try El Azteca on E Little Creek Rd. For higher value in Norfolk, check out Guads on Granby St on Tuesdays. For higher overall experience in both, I'd highly recommend Hacienda in Chesapeake (near Dicks and Kroger) for food/bev quality, portions sizes, cost, menu diversity, and service. Fajita burritos ($19, 3 stars). Mexican fried rice ($16.50, 2.5 stars) is what was recommended by waitress when asking for Arros con Pollos (aka Pollos Americanos...ie normally fajita chicken and peppers over rice smothered in queso). Again, just ok. Dumped some red salsa on our dishes for more flavor, though our least favorite salsa we've tried in all 757 Mexican spots. White salsa available on request (as guessed, just ok). read more

Today we had lunch at Plaza Azteca located at the Outlet Shops just off Northampton Boulevard in the heart of Norfolk. When we go to the outlet mall, we are definitely stop here for a bite to eat. The food is consistently good and so is the service. We really enjoyed our burritos today. The complimentary chips and salsa were really good as well. It was a little spicy today but that's just how I like it. Great experience read more

The food isn't good, and the prices are high compared to other places.The only good thing is the service.

Our family was seated right away and the drinks were served immediately with a side of salsa & chips. Everything was cooked to perfection. From the burritos to the tacos de birrias. I must say, this place has the one of the best birrias in town! With lots of meat and cheese, always a plus! There's music playing in the background if you enjoy that. I had a great time here with my family. read more

Beautiful place with awesome service. Clean and spacious. Our bartender girl was very nice and the food & drinks were great too! Thank you so much read more

A few of us went here for lunch and chose lunch specials. I ordered a chimichanga, rice and beans - all cooked to my specs. I really enjoyed it and the server went the extra mile: fast and friendly service and handled all our requests perfectly. The fancy stoneware made it seem less like dining in a restaurant. As for the ambiance, it was quite dark - a bit more light would be good and the music was so loud - we had to talk loudly to hear each other. We weren't near the bar - but in the dining room. The robotic cart was rather funny - rolled in the dining room by itself to carry the platters for the server. Nothing like using modern means to help the staff! I'd like to return and try some other items. Sorry no photos - it didn't last long! My friends cleared their plates as well. read more

the food was good do not get me wrong but the service was awful. i was at the bar sitting by myself and i had to ask multiple times for things.... she has a rude attitude and i waited around for an hour and a half to finally close out... and take my food to go because i did not feel welcomed there.. id rather eat at home.. i promise you it wasn't even busy for it to be like this. bartender syrida?? (i believe was her name)was more worried about the only other man at the bar and ignored me the whole time basically. will not be coming back. read more

Plaza Azteca - steak and chicken fajitas along with queso - Mexican Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

Food was super bland. The most seasoned thing on our table was the beer. Service was alright nothing special.

Went for lunch yesterday at the outlet. Server was friendly. Lunch portion was a good portion size and drinks are amazing. Had the pineapple jalapeño margarita. OMG that was delicious. My friend had a virgin mango daiquiri. She enjoyed it. I got the lunch steak fajitas and that was good. Only thing missing was some guacamole. I definitely recommend this restaurant if you are at the outlet looking for great drinks. read more

The outlet mall is where I shop most of the times but we never thought of eating here until last weekend. I'm glad we did. They were quite busy since it was a Saturday night so we snacked on the chips and salsa which was too good that we almost finished the whole bowl. Or maybe we were just hungry. He ordered the chicken taco salad while I had the fried chimichangas. We both loved our food but I couldn't finished mine since I already gorged on the chips. read more

Food was delicious but service was lacking. Our server walked by at least 10 times and bussed the table next to us but never came for our order after 45 minutes. We were about to order online and pay for our drinks when the manager walked by to ask us how things were. That's when our server finally came to take our order. The robot is cute. read more

I was a bit apprehensive at first, since the location is in the mall, but I was pleasantly surprised by the ambience as well as food! Great service and the place was packed on a Tuesday evening! The food was good, and the azteca margaritas were amaZing (and huge!). The made from scratch ceviche was delicious as well as the Al pastor tacos. Overall a great choice for Mexican food if you are tired after all day store hopping. read more

It was hey good environment the server was real good at fast at her job I wouldn't mind going there again

Food was fresh and delicious. The ambiance is great. We sat at the bar, but the service was still very good and our food came out fairly quickly read more

The food was good but we were charged $3.00 for some sour cream for fajitas. Guess we are paying for the funny digital delivery bots they have rolling via the restaurant. Bathrooms were out of soap but clean. I was seated immediately, and when we did place our orders, it came out super fast. $68 dollars for steak chimichungas "Texas chimichangas" and steak fajitas. Definitely on the more pricey side. Happy hour was from 3 to 6p. We both ordered one frozen margarita a piece, which were $9 and supposedly, we saved $3 . I just know typically I get more bang for buck, but I'm guessing the overcharge is because they're at the premium outlet. I'm a foodie so I don't mind paying for my food but this meal wasn't worth $70+ dollars in my opinion. read more

Plaza Azteca - Happy Hour 3p-6p - Mexican Near Me - Norfolk, Virginia

This visit was a pleasant surprise. I checked out the reviews before deciding to dine here and was a little hesitant... but I really enjoyed my first dining experience here, Black Friday! This location is located adjacent to the parking lot of the Williamsburg Outlets. One tell tell sign of a good restaurant, when you walk in you can smell the aromas of the dishes... not a stinky smell, but inviting... and this place was definitely that. Our waitress... I knew I would forget her name, but she was an absolute pleasure! Super friendly and very informative. She also helped my decide on what to have for lunch...her choice was phenomenal! I believe the dish was one of the newer options... it featured three meats: shrimp, chicken and steak. I really don't need several meat options, therefore next time, I will try the option with just chicken. The complimentary chips were tasty too... the salsa for dipping was good. I would prefer a little bit more spice, but it was still yummy! I didn't check out any cocktails on this visit, I had the mama with me and we were still out shopping, but I hope to visit again soon to sit and the bar to drink and dine! Now the restroom was tidy, but the paper towel dispenser, hunnnnie... only a 2x10 inch paper towel... that is not wiping anything! This was a drag, so they need to change those settings. Nevertheless, this place is located in a great spot! Check them out if you are in the area and walk off your calories by checking out the outlets. Have fun and enjoy life :) read more

You'd think going to the outlets on a Friday night just to eat would be crazy...so call us crazy! Very surprisingly, there was never a Friday night wait even on nights it was cold so most were seated inside. Delicious food with amazing queso, salsa, & chips. My go to order has been the shrimp fried rice. I did try the veggie burritos, one having spinach in it and it was a no for me. After eating multiple adult serving sizes of the chips, I typically have leftovers from my meal plus they give you a decent amount of food. For the most part we had pretty good waiters though one was the least bit attentive. We even celebrated a birthday here and they really surprised (scared) is when they came out. If there's one thing you take from this review, it's to beware of the margaritas...in a great way! Do not, I repeat, do not under estimate the strength of a margarita from here! I'm unsure of the days, but on Fridays happy hour for regular margaritas ends at 530 or 6 so of course I tried to get in as much as I could fit in. Keywords: I tried. Margarita: 2 Ashlee: 0. Great spot for catch up and relaxation with friends. One of our favorites places to visit. 4.5 stars read more

Food was bland. Ordered the lunch special with a taco enchilada and a burrito. All three had the same flavored ground beef in them and nothing else. It was just same beef with a taco shell or tortilla. Also lose the food delivery robot, It's ridiculous. read more

Before I begin this review let me start off by saying that this review is based solely on my opinion and my opinion alone so with that being said let's go!!.. We decided to stop here after we did some light shopping at the outlets. Our waiter promptly greeted us and took our drinks and shortly afterwards our appetizers and main dishes. So everything went well so you're wondering why I decided to leave this review two stars short you ask? Our waiter could not get our checks distributed between our 5 couples dine in party of 10.. I don't know what's so difficult about splitting up the bill. Let me add the drinks were on point ( alcoholic beverages)!!.. read more

I've been here about 5 times and always have a very pleasant experience. The food is always good & drinks are on point. I will advise that gratuity is included even for less than 6ppl. I didn't see that printed on the menu but it wasn't an issue. This is the ONLY plaza location that I like. Service is always great & I love the outdoor seating. read more

I had no idea this was even located at the Norfolk Premium Outlets. It's large inside with friendly service. We had a large group for a retirement luncheon of about 20 and they provided excellent service and were very patient and accommodating. I chose a chicken and steamed veggies dish and it was delicious and great price. Large menu with lots of lunch specials and you can easily shop before or after! Win. read more

My friend wanted to come get tacos. I'm currently doing vegan/vegetarian and was pleased with the section they had for vegetarian/vegan options. The veggies were great in the vegan burrito bowl. The tofu had no flavor, could've done without it. Definitely will return to try different dishes!! read more

Fantastic respite while the women shop. Had a monster margarita, chased by a ginormous Dos Equios Amber. Chips and salsa kept me coming back for more. Daughter finally showed up and ordered the lunch chicken fajita burrito. She couldn't finish it, so I did. Most excellent. Highly recommend for anyone forced to the outlet mall. Plus, everyone speaks English as a second language, which adds a star to any Mexican restaurant review. read more

Came here after a little bit of shopping. I'm a huge fan of Plaza Azteca. My mango margarita had so much alcohol in it which was amazing. The service not so great. They weren't busy at all, I kept having to ask for simple things like a spoon, napkins, etc. I did enjoy the atmosphere, playlist was great and my food was amazing as always. I'd always come back - seriously my favorite Mexican spot. I've been to at least 20 locations. read more

I don't know where to begin with this location ! I have eaten here many many times. My family and I love Mexican food. But I have to say that this location specifically is the best. The waitstaff and the manager is so welcoming. We've never had one problem here. Food is always cooked perfect. The tables always clean not sticky from previous customers. Ready and presenting to the next people. Always! Love the restaurant decor here. It's beautiful. And everyone feels comfortable. Margaritas are the best I've ever had anywhere. Highly recommend this location to everyone. read more

Not gonna lie this place took us off guard. Outlets were beginning to open and a few stores were welcoming guests. From the night prior we were out drinking and needed to get some fresh air and "sober me up drinks" mentioning to ourselves how a Micheleda would hit the spot we turned to corner and saw this jewel. We arrived early as outdoor seating was very limited soaked up the sun, wind and good vibes while sipping on some well made drinks. The ceviche was on point but the corn in a bowl dish was missing something read more

This is a lifesaver of a restaurant. Shopping with the family and wanted some good food. The entrance is simple but that is the only simple thing about this restaurant. Expect ample seating, an expansive menu, friendly staff and amazing food. I had the enchilada suizas lunch which is pictured. Also pictured are the plantains and the Burrito Mex. prices are more than reasonable and even on Black Friday we were seated quickly read more

The birria tacos at this location were much better than another Plaza that I tried them at. The beef consommé for dipping was delish and not salty. Queso fundido is good. Veggies are chopped fajita style. Margarita was amazing as always. Downside is this location only serves flavored margaritas in large per the staff. Service was friendly and attentive. read more

Came for lunch with a large group about 15-20 of us. Service was great. We didn't wait for refills on drinks, chips or salsa. Food came out hot too for everyone. Didn't notice any incorrect orders. That in itself is impressive! I had the lunch chimichanga, fried. I was expecting the normal super greasy deep fried shell. I was very surprised, it was lightly but perfectly fried. Chicken was tender and flavorful as was the cheese sauce. Impressed with the fresh taste wasn't expecting it in a large chain type restaurant. read more

Overall this place wasn't too bad. It's convenient because it's part of the outlet mall, and leagues better than the food court. I was seated quickly by a hostess and my table was clean. Nice cool air conditioning!! They also have tables outside, but even with the umbrellas the shade is skimpy out there. My waitress was ok. I asked her what a drink picture was on the margarita menu, and she told me which it was. I questioned her because the one I pointed out had grapefruit slices, and the one she said it was didn't mention grapefruit at all. I ended up ordering a passion fruit house margarita, which was sweet and yummy. Their house red salsa is extremely boring. It was not spicy at all and it was so tomato-y it was nearly pizza sauce. I ordered the grilled chicken tacos, they come with corn tortillas. Mine immediately broke when I picked them up, that's why most places use better quality tortillas or double up. I ended up dumping my tacos on the plate and mixing up a pile with the rice and beans. It was good, but nothing brilliant. Waitress was nice enough, but busy with lots of tables. This place is great to relax in the AC and have a drink while shopping, food and service is OK. Also, we all know the rules now. Mask worn properly because you're not vaccinated or no mask because you are vaccinated. I hate seeing staff with masks on their chin etc. read more

Visiting my daughter at college and wanted to just grab dessert and drinks, so we popped over to Plaza Azteca. We were greeted and sat in the bar area since we were doing chips, guacamole, desserts and drinks. We sat for an eternity before anyone brought the menus. In fact, after sitting for a solid 5 minutes, I went to the bar to get a menu and was scolded by the bartender who said someone was bringing menus to us. So I sat back down and again we waited. Finally the menus were brought. Again we waited. Then finally the host came over and took our order. And again we waited. And waited. Food started coming and the fella came and made our guacamole. Drinks were the last to arrive after we were well into the food. Maybe they didn't have enough people working? All I know is that it was not a great experience. The guacamole was good, but it shouldn't take so long to greet and serve people. I hope it's a temporary thing. read more

Waitresses don't know English so they may bring you extra dishes that you didn't order. And if you taste it they insist that you have to pay. I felt very uncomfortable the way they behaved. It was disappointing for me. So be careful what you order in this restaurant read more
