    Chorizo taco
    Lindsay G.

    WOAH! This place is incredible! We stopped through on our way back to Charlottesville. I had chorizo tacos and my boyfriend had lengua tacos, maybe the best tacos I've ever had... I especially love good chorizo:)) im surprised to see the lack of reviews, I recommend 10X over again! Thank you

    I have been here before, and always had good food and service. Today I was very disappointed in mine and my wife's meal. I had 6 hot wings and lunch special burrito, my wife had the nachos with ground beef and shredded chicken. The hot wings had flavorful sauce, but the wings were tough and chewy like they had been fried or cooked twice nasty. My burrito was okay but lacked flavor and spice. My wife was very disappointed with her meal and noted it was bland. My wife asked server for cilantro and lime, the server informed us there would be a charge which was fine except for the fact it was only necessary to add some sort of flavor to make the dish decent. We said it was fine and she brought the cilantro and lime. The cilantro was not fresh it was wilted and some brown on the edges. My wife picked through it and found a few okay pieces and informed waitress she wasn't going to pay for the cilantro it was old and brown. The manager came to the table to tell us he didn't see anything wrong with the cilantro. My wife informed him if she wasn't paying for it period. He took it off the bill, but never would admit it was brown and not fresh. I guess no one ever taught him the customer is always right.

    Carnitas well presented for lunch for $10.50, good value and tasty

    Typical Tex-Mex in nice free standing building with private parking lot. Busy at lunch this Wednesday afternoon. Everything tried was good and well presented, large portions. Shrimp, steak, chicken fajitas were excellent. Salsa both hot and mild were subpar for my palate, and should be improved, my only complaint. Very reasonable, pleasant friendly service, prompt, great spot for lunch and probably dinner too. Flan was very good and close to 5 star I had to have a second. The chef just made these and they are so fluffy and wonderful.....I'd come back if I'm ever in Chatham, Virginia (I think that's where I am) again on way to 150th anniversary of the celebration of end of Civil War at Appomattox.

    Decent food, good beer

    The service was great!…read more The amount of options, amazing. I ordered caldo de res and wasn't impressed. The broth wasn't flavorful, and I had one piece of corn, one piece of carrot, one potato, and one piece of zucchini. The potato was cooked thoroughly, but it was really grainy, had a horrible texture. Th zucchini was so overcooked, the only reason I knew it was zucchini was because I seen the skin floating in the soup, it was just a spoonful of mush at the bottom of my bowl. There wasn't much flavor to the soup at all, but plenty of meat. One of my favorite soups, but I wouldn't get it again at this restaurant. The dip had a wonderful flavor, but was the consistency of juice... couldn't pick it up with a chip. I poured some onto the chips but didn't do much good. When they brought out my rice, I poured what remained on top. My dates food was decent, but I forget what it was called. The drinks were good, but I didn't really feel the alcohol.

    Not many places open in Sundays in the area, so we settled on Mexican for dinner. They have an…read moreextensive menu and it took a while to figure out what to order; the chips/salsa helped pass the time away. Should have read my previous review of this place b/c I ended up getting fajitas again (its usually my go-to). Ordered the fajitas pina, which was a huge pile of chicken, steak, and shrimp, topped with grilled pineapple. It was pretty good, but they overcooked most of it; maybe its because we had a big group. It's a huge portion and comes with all the fixings to make a great taco.
