Don't sleep on the salsa , It's good!
Alex G.

Really good place for tacos and Texmex. Recently moved here from Texas, I needed some good Texmex food. This hit the spot. Good tacos, burritos and service. Don't sleep on the salsa, it's that good!

While visiting Williamsburg, I didn't think I would find any Mexican food worth a darn. I was quite wrong, this place is pretty darn good. It doesn't quite have the spice that we have in California but it's pretty dang tasty. I'm sure they have to tone it back a little for the locals. All and all I would definitely come back. You should try it too!

Y'all this is our now favorite Mexican restaurant in Williamsburg! Williamsburg has a plethora of Mexican restaurants and since moving here we have tried at least 7 and this one is our favorite! Arriving at prime time on a Saturday night we had to wait about 15 minutes for a table but seeing the place full sent us a good sign that this was a popular spot and we could see lots of delicious food coming from the kitchen. Once seated our waiter was great and got us drink and yummy chips and salads and the famous white sauce. Their chips were yummy and some of the best white sauce I have had. Our food was quick to come from the kitchen and it was all delicious. My husband had a burrito and it was huge and filled to capacity. My chimichanga was nicely prepared and tasted good. My husband also got a Bahama mama and it was nice and strong. Can't wait to go back for another delicious Mexican meal!

7/12/21: As always, greeted quickly and warmly by the staff. I am not certain, but I think this may be an all male staff... kitchen included! Chips and salsa were being scooped as we walked Into the dining room and delivered properly to our table just as we sat down. I don't know why I even bothered looking at the menu, because I ordered the same thing I had just four days ago: The Carnitas! My husband opted for a combo of two enchiladas one beef; one cheese) with rice (no beans). My carnitas was the dinner portion this time (it was about 4:30). We don't normally eat dinner this early but we skipped lunch and were starving! These Carnitas are not only my favorite thing at Taco Mexicali, but among the stop five best things I've EVER EATEN. EVER. The staff seems happy to be at work and are very friendly with the patrons. It seemed like several tables were occupied by regulars, always a good sign! The chef could be heard singing while he cooked (and we were not in the tables close to the kitchen)... we LOVE hearing a happy kitchen! The wait staff, our server in particular, was kind enough to let me try my broken Spanish while ordering and asking for drink refills. ¡Muchos gracias... las comidas estuvo fantastico!! ¡Te veo pronto!

Pretty solid food. Nothing was "knock your socks off"- great, but nothing was bad, either. My San Jose burrito was a little on the dry side, but I dumped some of their salsa on it and it was pretty decent. My wife's burrito was likewise pretty good, but it wasn't quite as described in the menu. The margaritas were actually very tasty, and probably the best thing we had. Everyone was very friendly and pleasant. In the end, it's the type of place where I wouldn't object to returning, but I also wouldn't set out to visit on purpose again.

I'm visiting my grandma in Williamsburg, and she wanted to go out for lunch. This is her favorite restaurant. I totally understand why after today. The staff knew her when we came in and let us sit right near the front door so it was easy for us to get in-and-out. They knew her order so when she didn't remember what it was they were able to help us. She had these delicious chili rellanos. I ordered the tierra y mar dish which was absolutely fantastic! It was shrimp and scallops with a ton of different vegetables over rice with cheese sauce. The service was phenomenal. The staff checked on us multiple times, made sure our beverages were full the entire time, and were available for anything we needed. I'm super impressed and so glad I was able to try this place today!

Love this place. All of it is great! Food, service and ambiance. A local favorite for us: especially the tamales, margaritas and guacamole.

Plaza Azteca - Chips with side of refried beans

Plaza Azteca

Great atmosphere. Lively, welcoming, an easy place to sit and enjoy a meal with friends and family…read more The service was amazing from start to finish. The food itself was a bit of a mixed bag. The main dishes were definitely underseasoned, which was disappointing (veggie fajita. Maybe if I got meat it would have been better but I was on a Daniel fast). That said, the homemade hot salsa absolutely slapped. Easily the highlight of the meal. It carried a lot of the experience. I would come back for the atmosphere, the salsa, and the service. If the kitchen turns the seasoning up just a bit, this place could be a regular stop when we are in town.

Plaza Azteca is a Mexican restaurant located near the Movie Tavern and the wonderful Wagster's…read moreMagic Show in Williamsburg. It's a great spot to have a meal before or after going to either of those entertainment venues. The restaurant is large with a mixture of tables and booths. The staff are friendly and efficient. They even have a robot that transports the food from the kitchen to your table. It's very cute. Their menu has a lot of options, and we enjoyed our selections. I had the Chicken Fajita Salad. It came with three nice size pieces of lightly seasoned chicken breasts, lettuces, cheese, tomatoes, and avocados. The portion was large, and I took about one-third of it home. My husband likes combo plates, so he got one that had refined beans, rice, and three different enchiladas. While it too was a large portion, he devoured it and it raves about the quality of the food. As with other Mexican restaurants , they bring complimentary chips and salsa to the table. For drinks, I had the red sangria, which was light. He had the horchata, which he rated ok. Free parking is available outside the restaurant.
