The birria tacos were really good, definitely a 10 out of 10. I had never tried tiramisu before, so I wanted to give it a shot since I've heard so many people love it.

Tastey. They gave us some sauces to use - i personally didn't like them but my partner did enjoy their hot sauce. The queso was watered down & not that good for costing $6.50. The burrito was good but could use some better sauce options. Got a 3/5 just bc the food could taste better. Wouldn't go back.

We both wanted fajitas and went with the shrimp and mixed fajita plates. Chicken and shrimp were are favorites, with the beef coming in a close 2nd. They load your plate with sautéed onions and peppers, and the avocado was fresh and tasty. Service was attentive and quick. They had excellent salsa choices, including a very tasty/hot rojo salsa, which we've struggled to find at other restaurants in town. We'll definitely be back.

Let me start by saying the atmosphere here is almost always pleasant. Whether you're picking up…read morefood or dining in, they send you off with a friendly "see you tomorrow," which always leaves a good impression. My go-to order is the Quesadilla Del Mar without onions, and I have never been disappointed. When I dine in, I usually ask for queso on top. If I'm getting takeout, I order the queso on the side. Either way, the queso is top tier. A couple of small opportunities for improvement: Parking can be tough when the place is packed. Also, the complimentary chips, salsa, and white sauce for takeout could use some balance. You get two servings of chips but barely enough salsa for one chip, which feels a little off. I'm actually quite in awe of this and the main reason I can't give them 5 stars. You're already great. Don't compromise that by being stingy on salsa when give so much in your dishes. Overall, this is my go-to spot for Mexican food. I don't even live close, but I gladly make the drive every time.

We arrived on Thursday night around 8 pm, and the parking was hit or miss. I had to circle the…read moreblock to find a spot, but it was pretty close once I did. I noticed the ice cream/yogurt spot nearby was hopping. There was a person asking for change outside the front door. We were greeted by an enthusiastic host and seated immediately at a booth up front. The server came by within seconds and brought us water and place settings. We decided to get the chips and salsa for an appetizer and a pair of melting chimichangas for entrees. I can't resist some chorizo and steak. My partner got the chimichanga without chorizo and with chicken. The ambiance was colorful with beautifully painted murals on each wall, and the atmosphere was undeniably loud. There were lots of patrons. The place was packed, even at the bar, so your mileage may vary. We received our orders within minutes of each other, so there wasn't much of a wait time. The chips and salsa were homemade, fresh, warm, and delicious (muy rico). Same for the entrees; exactly what I want in a Mexican food restaurant. The chorizo and steak were well-cooked, seasoned, and chopped finely, but not ground. I was in heaven with that chimichanga. We had to take home leftovers. The next night, heated in the oven at 325 for 30 minutes, they were similarly excellent. The night ended without dessert, sadly (too full). However, the server was quick and efficient, and he was always around to fill water and bring anything we needed throughout the meal. Great experience overall. We will definitely return here whenever we have a hankering for some good Mexican food at reasonable prices. I can recommend this place to anyone who appreciates hearty and filling Mexican food.

I decided to try a burrito jalisco. After I ordered, they dropped off some chips and salsa, which had some spice to it. I preferred that over the cremy white sauce, which tasted a bit sweet to me. The burrito was really tasty and had good flavor. It was served with a side of rice and was a decent size. Overall, I was really happy with my meal, as the flavors were more authentic than other Mexican restaurants I've tried. Don't be fooled by the strip mall that it's located in--it's definitely worth the trip.

Their yucca is elite; perfectly crispy on the outside, super soft on the inside, and absolutely delicious. Dip them in their yellow sauce! ​The Sauce Situation: I'm obsessed with their sauces. The yellow sauce is liquid gold, and the green sauce adds that perfect spicy bite. I always mix them because why not? ​The Horchata: I'm not even kidding, I actually dream about this horchata. It's ice-cold, perfectly creamy, and has just enough cinnamon to make it dangerous. ​It's fast, it's consistent, and it's a Richmond staple for a reason. 10/10, no notes.

Not the best option for to-go order, but it tasted great, and everything was put together well. My friend who recommended this place raved about the fajita veggies, they were even good as leftovers the next day. Parking is on the street for the most part.

The calamari were crispy and came out hot and throwing a little something different since this place is a fusion of Mexican/Chinese it came with gyoza dipping sauce. The menu is filled with options that combine two different styles but if you are not feeling adventitious you can get the standard. For the main course I went with the Szechuan Surf & Turf Burrito. Yooooooo.......... I was like who... no what ..... why .... How did someone come up with this. It is like when you visit somewhere and have good food but you know you are visiting and will not have it again until you return. Hopefully the place is still open. So much flavor packed up and rolled by some angel's hands back in that kitchen. No hunting for shrimp as with some places when they tell there is shrimp in the selection. I am so glad we decided to eat there because you can tell this is the type of meal where eating it hot is the only way to do it justice. This place is not the first to have a fusion of foods, but I can say it does a better job than most. Richmond has some great eating spots and is quietly a foodie spot to check out.

Food as decent, but suffering from fusion confusion. I specifically mentioned to the server that I…read morewanted spicy (which should be a given for any Szechuan dish) but results were lackluster at best.

When you factor in the difficulty of street parking downtown, and the price (2 lunch burritos with tip and tax were @ $45) I don't think we'd make a special effort to return.

My guest had the King's Memorial combo. It was huge, but bursting with flavors and it came with a crispy taco on the side.

Loved the creamy jalapeño sauce, the salsa was refreshing and bright, and the queso was yellow with (likely) rotel mixed in, but definitely delicious.
