After receiving the order, I could see they acknowledged the request for no beans/vegetable on the ticket printed but after opening the boxes, there were beans and vegetables. My husband was still able to eat his fajitas, throwing out anything the beans spilled on but i was unable to eat the nachos seeing as there was corn, peppers, and what looked like beans at the bottom. We live in Portsmouth and wanted to try something new but i guess this wasn't the right choice. So disappointing because we thought we may had found a new mexican spot.

It's a bit hard to come up with a proper review of the restaurant without taking into consideration…read morethe part that the delivery service might have played in the problems with the order. The restaurant is in an out parcel of Lake Shores Plaza Shopping Center. The space, less than a mile from my house, was a diner for many years beginning in the late 80's and was a favorite of my late husband. It was a little surprising when it took a long time for the food to come. This must have been the fault of the delivery service since the individually ordered hard tacos, which were packed in a unique container to keep the shell whole, were cold and falling apart. My son's Shrimp Burrito Bowl and my Grandson's Chorizo Tacos were correct and good. But instead of 2 orders of Tacos, Rice & Refried Beans we received 2 orders that had what appeared to be a large Pepper with Rice & Beans. We also received two orders of a tortilla covered in refried beans and topped with lettuce. My son reached out to the restaurant. One of the problems was an IT issue with the restaurant & delivery service, one showing the item number ordered to be one dish while the other showed the same number to be something else. The restaurant would make good on the two taco dinner orders. But my son had to pick them up. He returned quickly with hot food. But the tacos still came apart placed in a container with rice and refried beans. We then had lots of food, delivered in error, to throw away. In order to give this restaurant a proper review I need to return in person to sort out where the problem originated. But for sure, all Mexican Restaurants need to learn how to serve hard tacos, rice and beans without the hard shell disintegrating. This is a problem dining in and delivery,

First, let me thank Guads for having some healthier menu items such as bowls and lettuce-wraps for…read moretacos. I started coming to Guads for that very reason when I was on a restricted diet and the places I usually went didn't have very much in the way of low carb menu items. Second, Diego, Abner, and Jaquelin are always extremely attentive and just as nice as can be. I've watched them work with other tables and service to everyone (not just me) is top notch, friendly, and for such a small staff that makes a huge difference - it makes you feel welcome, and being the place is somewhat small (smaller than the other places in town) it makes for a much cozier "like family" atmosphere. Third, it is your typical Americanized Mexican restaurant with a lot of the same dishes and you know, you like what you like and what you get used to. I like the sauce served with tacos at La Parilla better. I like the Mexican Street Corn and Fried Plantains at Plaza Azteca (which neither other place has). I like "Los Tres" (3 types of Guacamole) at Guads. Their Mole Poblano is my favorite. Their Enchiladas Rancheras has cubed pork where I'm used to shredded - but it was extremely tasty pork cubes nonetheless. The Poblano appetizer is a Poblano people stuffed with Shrimp. The Brioche are skewers like "shish kebabs" with whichever meats you decide and is quite nice for something a little different. Their red and white sauces are "different" than the other places - I like their red sauce best, I think Plaza Azteca had the better white sauce - but they're all slightly different and I'll take any of them any day of the week. My family loves their Chile Rellenos - which are NOT battered which is kind of unusual TMK, but they are actually quite good like that and a nice variation - especially if you want to cut down on some fried stuff and carbs. So I mean, you have to go and try it, and find what you like. They do do Taco Tuesday and it gets super busy, and the Tacos are "very basic" but I mean, TBH I always feel guilty when I get my bill because it's so low and even a single taco has enough in it for a - well, the prices have gone up with what's happening in the world - so they were 1.00, then 1.50, I think they might be 2.00. But heck the other places are like "no we don't do Taco Tuesday, don't ask". But I like their meals enough that even if I'm there on a Tuesday I'll still order a meal a lot of times. My favorite is probably the Taquitos Mexicanos with is 2 Taquitos - but they're two tortillas each so longer and thicker than typical - those are set on a bed of refried beans (enough to hold them in place) and topped with sliced avocado, tomatoes, lettuce, sour cream, jalepenos, pickled red onion IIRC, and crumbled cheese, with some chipotle drizzle or something IIRC - very nice presentation. The Chimichangas are like tortillas made into little pouches with the brisket inside of them - amazingly good and again, an attention to the appearance of the food rather than just a plate of rice, beans, sauce, and enchilada like so many dishes (they do those too though I you're looking for that). Just a lot of the stuff is nicely presented - got Texano dip the other day and it had two "wings" on it - a fried flower tortilla cut in half that had the edges cut with triangular points like sun rays - very nice for something you'd just expect a bowl of cheese dip. We've had nothing bad there - some things weren't as good for me, or for my family at other places (and we all like different things at the different places) but I've had nothing I'd say was downright bad. Some things are kind of "plain" or "basic" so I feel like, with the other more "typical" dishes, the "typical ones with a twist" and the "unique" dishes, there's something for everyone here.

The restaurant is aesthetically pleasing but the food was mediocre. I love birria tacos and this is…read morethe only place they don't put cheese in them so it was falling apart during eating and dipping in consommé. The consommé was not great either.

I will opt for another Mexican restaurant.

Big Boss Burrito was the spot for our first meal in Norfolk, a group of six of us in town for a…read morecollege friend reunion, mostly out of towners trying the Norfolk food scene for the first time. Norfolk isn't known as a foodie destination, but based on this first restaurant, the food here is pretty good and worth a visit. My friend who lives in Norfolk recommended it, and it's in a lively commercial spot near where we stayed. Parking was easy in the lot, and even with no reservation, 6 people walking in on a Friday night, we got seated right away. There's a handwritten note on the menu saying chips and salsa is one complimentary basket per table, and since we split into two tables, we ended up with two, which worked out nicely. Good queso to me comes down to viscosity. The thinner it runs, the better, gloppy queso is no bueno. This one ran right off the chip like water, which is exactly what I want. We ordered it to share and demolished it within a few minutes. Most of my group ordered tacos, which come in a single meat type, three to an order. Everyone ordered a different meat type and then traded so each person ended up with one of each kind, a fun way to try more of the menu. The fish tacos were a highlight for them. I was the only one who went a different direction, getting the chicken fajitas, which I split with a friend since the portion was huge, sizzling hot, loaded with chicken, peppers, and onions. My one gripe is they only gave us three tortillas for that much meat, so the tortilla to filling ratio was off. We left extremely full, and pleasantly surprised by how reasonable the food was ($30-40 a person, even with each person having a drink). Service was fast and friendly the whole night, and paying at the end was quick too. Drink-wise, the Trash Can looked very intriguing with almost 5 different liquor options, but I ultimately played it safe with a Paloma. Two friends got margaritas, one of which came practically the size of my friend's head, others had beers. My only real complaint is the drinks run sweet. I thought the Paloma would be the least sweet option, but it was still quite sweet for my taste. The margarita friends also said their margaritas were oversalted, like the salt fell in instead of staying on the rim. Small gripes aside, this was a great spot and I'd absolutely go back next time I'm in Norfolk.

The food was great! Unfortunately, the service was... well, something to scoff at…read more We started out with two waitresses, and it became apparent pretty quickly that one of them was new. We received a basket of nice, warm tortilla chips--which I'll give them credit for--but ONE small bowl of salsa that was barely filled. We had to ask for the white sauce, and when we requested another basket of chips, we were surprised to notice on the menu that additional baskets came with an extra charge. After we FINALLY received our drinks--which were all waters--and three small shots, the more experienced waitress essentially disappeared, leaving us with the clearly new and inexperienced server. I have no problem with someone being new; everyone has to learn. But if you're training a new employee, they should have support. We never received water refills, and the overall attentiveness simply wasn't there. The atmosphere didn't help either. There were flies around the dining area, and remodeling was being done, which definitely took away from the experience. Then came the bill. I HATE FEELING LIKE I PAID SO MUCH FOR SO LITTLE ITS RHW WORSE FEELING I have absolutely no problem spending money to take my family out and enjoy a good meal. What bothered me was paying that bill and feeling like the only thing I was paying for was the opportunity to finally LEAVE. When the food is good but the service and atmosphere make you regret dining in, something is wrong. The food deserves credit--it really was good. But based on our overall experience, I couldn't recommend dining here. If I ever ordered from this restaurant again, it would probably be delivery or takeout. Good food shouldn't have to overcome bad service.

Absolutely unacceptable. I ordered a California burrito with extra sour cream and they gave me…read moreranch instead, which makes no sense. Even worse, the burrito wasn't even a cali burrito. It was just rice and meat with a tortilla thrown on top not wrapped, not rolled, completely wrong. This feels careless and lazy, like no one even checked the order before sending it out. If you can't make a basic burrito correctly, don't charge people for it. Huge waste of money.

Would not recommend this place to anyone! Not including the service or lack there of, we received…read moreour bill with just amounts and no total. We add the total together ourselves and go to pay at the front, the total given to us is 19 dollars higher than the amount on the bill... we were taxed $19 which after doing the math is 12% food tax in an area that only goes as high as 8% MAX. Also we tipped our waiter as we left the table and at the desk where you pay there is a paper stating that there is an 18% gratuity. This gratuity was added to our bill after the 12% tax so we were forced to pay gratuity on an extra $19 that we shouldn't have been charged to begin with. Honestly if I could give zero stars I would.

After being seated they brought us out some fresh chips and salsa. The salsa was some of the best I've had!! Super fresh and a little chunkiness to it. The menu was full of yummy options. We chose to do pick 3 combos. I got a beef tostada, chicken taco & tamale with rice & beans. I was pleasantly surprised at how well the beef on the tostada was seasoned!! While I don't do sour cream, I scrapped it off and enjoyed it. I had asked for some house hot sauce, habanero which added a great kick!! The chicken taco was seasoned just as well! The tamale was ok, a little thicker than I prefer. My husband really enjoyed his taco, chalupa and tamale. We definitely will be back to try different items!!

I ordered a taco salad to go, and overall it was really, really good. When I got it, you could tell…read moreeverything was fresh -- the pico de gallo was bright and flavorful, the lettuce was crisp, and they definitely didn't skimp on toppings. The shell held up nicely too, even after taking it home. The only thing I personally didn't love was the shredded chicken, but that's just me -- I'm not a shredded chicken person at all. Flavor-wise though, everything was still on point. I also got a side of rice and chips with salsa, and both were solid. The rice had good flavor (not bland like some places), and the salsa had a nice fresh taste to it that paired perfectly with the chips. While I waited for my order, I had one of their fresh margaritas -- he called it a skinny margarita made with fresh lime juice -- and let me just say... 10/10. So smooth, super refreshing, and honestly one of the best parts of the visit. The vibe inside is low-key, authentic, and welcoming. It's a family-owned spot, and you can feel that as soon as you walk in. Most of the conversation is in Spanish, but they absolutely understand English and are very friendly. One of my favorite moments was talking with the owner. I noticed a beautiful cake sitting up front and asked about it, which led to him sharing that he was a chef and baker in the military before retiring. The cake was gorgeous -- like professionally done -- and just added to that personal touch you don't get everywhere. Overall, this place felt genuine, fresh, and full of heart. Great food, an amazing margarita, and a story behind it. I'd definitely come back -- next time just switching up the protein they have Great specials closed Monday's and Tuesday

Our server was wonderful. She was very pleasant and helped us with some of the questions we had regarding the menu items. We started with the Fresh Tableside Guacamole and it tasted great! We did order it with a "medium" spice level and it wasn't spicy at all but other than that, it was very good. Since the Street Tacos caught our eye, we both decided on those. We ordered the Al Pastor, Barbacoa, Carnitas, Chorizo, Camarón, Nopales and Lengua. The tacos were served with a variety of different sauces, ranging from sweet and mild to very spicy. Most of the tacos were delicious, our favorite was the Al Pastor, Barbacoa, and Camarón. We weren't a fan of the Lengua, it was very dry, chewy and unflavored. Overall, we had a great experience. Our margaritas were amazing as well! I love the vibe of this restaurant and the food and service is always wonderful.
