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!

Happy hour was 3-6pm I think, and there were 2 taco specials on the board. I'm not sure if it was valid or not.. There was one person at the bar taking orders, serving drinks, and pretty much running the place. She was very busy. The anxiety of watching her try to handle everything made me a little uncomfortable. She was doing her best, and kuddos to her for not flipping a table and walking out. She was nice, but she asked us every 3-4 minutes if we knew what we were ordering. It was very aggravating. I don't think she realized after several times we were over it. The inside is pretty much a bar setting with a few booths. It's very dated and low-key kind of gloomy inside. I'd say this is a bar for locals, not really a restaurant. It's definitely the kind of food you could eat if you had a few drinks, maybe. But sober, heck no!! Lol. Ugh. I was excited to try them because they have some 5 star reviews, but it wasn't what I expected. When it was time to eat she went and got the cook from outside. We ordered 2 burgers and fries, and chicken nachos. We left and came back to pick up our order and the seats at the bar was packed at this point. The waitress met us as we walked in, with our food. I was hungry, so I tried the food in the car. The burger was definitely a frozen patty and thick as heck. It looked decent kinda sorta, in a way, maybe, just a little bit. Idk what to say. The fries were crispy but awkwardly greasy!! There was one tiny tomato on my burger and a huge onion that was a little moldy. I've never seen someone use a slice of onion this big on a burger. The burger definitely needed seasoning. I think if it had flavor it would have been decent. I'll give the burger a 4/10. My sister got the chicken nachos and she was not happy. Whatever mystery beans they had made were disgusting. They tasted old or something was off about them. The guacamole was a little sour tasting also, and the chicken was flavorless. She tried so hard to make it work, she even re-cooked the beans and it just didn't help. 2/10!!! She spent $25 and felt it was the worse decision she made all day. I wish I was exaggerating or something, but this is actual factual. The prices are reasonable, I'll say that. But it's definitely certain things to stay away from on the menu. I don't think we'd ever return. Maybe the tacos are better than what we had ordered. If you're looking for a drink maybe things would be better. I think they specialize in drinks over food!?

Well. It was a Tuesday afternoon my sister and I had to stop past the beauty supply store. So my…read moresister was like, do you want to try this place " Margarita Grill". So I was down smh. It's a bar a little dive kinda spot I had ordered the bacon cheeseburger for my boy, the grilled chicken nachos for myself. I can appreciate that they didn't put the toppings on the nachos or burger. My sister has gotten some kind of burger also lol. I get dropped off gave my son his food looks like it's about to be good lol until he heats it up for a second, I put all the fixings on my nachos right. Believing things was about to hit smh nope.. my kid said mom I appreciate you bringing me something to eat home but.... The burger tastes like nothing was like chewing sawdust bacon was the only thing to taste alright, fries were ok though. now lol for my nachos looks can be deceiving. My lettuce was brown and wilted, was supposed to be like a refried beans I guess ‍ they were kidney beans looked those. When i say they smelled like I was taken back by the look of things but when my crazy self tasted that mess my lawdt smh had my stomach doing flips. Also the guacamole tasted like that was old and sour. I have had guac with too much lemon or lime juice in it, this was like past its time only looked ok due to the lemon juice or whatever. Will not be doing that again. The ambiance was chill a few of those slot games bar area in the middle of the place a few tables around it nothing to really hype up. I will say even though we didn't care for what we had, maybe it was a bad day. ‍ Who knows other things may be good if we stop past that beauty store again, I'd go and try the lumpia or fried fish taco. Was told that they taste really good. lol honestly y'all go be the judge for yourselves could have been an off day.

In addition to Tatiana and the quality food; every other worker is extremely friendly, with one gentleman who carries out the food on his full length of his arms, and even dances as he does nightly clean up. You are treated like family by everyone. I cant wait to be back in Norfolk to visit Tatiana and have an amazing meal again! Highly recommend.

The service and food were good and I thought I finally found a place that actually knows how to make San Diego style Mexican food. I brought my family back the second time and the service was slow. The food was not as good but adequate. Today was terrible. We phoned in the order and were quoted 20 mins. It took me 20 mins to get there and I waited another 20 mins when I got there. They had 5 people in the restaurant. The server did give me a 20 dollar gift card which would be great if the fucking food wasn't absolutely awful. I wish I were making this up but my damn dog wouldn't even eat it when we gave it to her.We ordered California burritos and we each took two bites and threw the rest away. The meat was insanely dry, the shredded cheese inside wasn't melted which suggests they're not making these fresh they're assembling them. And browning them on the grill afterwards. Terrible idea. Dryest, most disgusting burrito I've ever eaten. Additionally, the first time I ate there they put guac, sour cream, and pico inside the burrito. None of those ingredients today. JIC they're reading this, a California burrito is carne or pollo asado, cheese, pico, French fries, avocado or guac and sour cream. This was dry ass old meat, unmelted cheese and chunks of mealy tomatoes. The good news is, if the quality stays like this they won't be open much longer. Absolutely awful, will not go back.

I've now ordered from Jesse's Taqueria both for pickup and delivery, and overall I've been really…read moreimpressed with their consistency and quality. For my pickup order, I had a taco salad with a side of rice, and it was hands-down amazing. I also ordered a watermelon fresca, which was so flavorful and clearly made in-house. You can really taste the freshness. I was told they make their tortillas in-house as well, so I ordered a side of those just to try--and they were excellent. Everything was packed with great care for takeout, neatly wrapped and organized. I also appreciated that the pico de gallo was served on the side, which kept everything fresh and well-balanced. The only small downside is that they don't offer a traditional salad dressing for the taco salad, but fresh lime works perfectly and still keeps it very enjoyable. On a separate delivery order a few days later, I tried their birria tacos with a side of rice and another fresca. Again, everything arrived fresh and flavorful. The quesabirria tacos were packed with meat, very rich and satisfying, and they included plenty of sauce on the side, which I appreciated. The rice was also consistently good. What stands out most is how consistent they are between pickup and delivery. Everything is well-prepared, flavorful, and thoughtfully packed. This has quickly become one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in the area, especially since they're so close by.

The vibe here is bright and welcoming, with funky decor and friendly staff who clearly love what they do. To start, we ordered the Pickle de Gallo with chips. If you're a pickle lover, this is a must order appetizer. The combination of tart, crunchy pickles with traditional pico flavors is super unique and unexpectedly addictive. I couldn't stop dipping. For our mains, my friend went with the Chicken Tinga bowl. It's packed with rice, black beans, tender chicken tinga, onion, cilantro, queso fresco, cabbage, plus a blend of roja and blanca salsas. He seemed to enjoy it, and loved how the chicken was flavorful, with just the right amount of spice, and all the toppings kept every bite interesting without overpowering the rest of the bowl. I went with the Chimichurri Bowl special, and it was equally fantastic. The chimichurri sauce was herby and bright. Perfect on top of the rice and protein. Every ingredient tasted super fresh, and you can tell they put effort into balancing the textures and flavors. We paired our food with drinks: I had a glass of wine (always nice to see wine on a taqueria menu!) and my friend tried the Paloma, which was refreshing and citrusy, not overly sweet. Perro Blanco nails it with creative food, great drinks, and top-notch service. If you're looking for something new and delicious in a laid-back setting, you need to check this place out. I can't wait to come back and try a different bowl or one of their burritos next time!
