    First time coming here and I must say I was impressed. The restaurant/bar was very new and nicely decorated. There's 2 hr free parking in the garage nearby. The whole area looks nice and new. The waitress said until recently, the area was a park. The bar looked like a good place to drink but I was only there to eat an early dinner so I had the carnitas and the Peking duck taco. Both dishes were very delicious. I tried all three sauces and couldn't tell which one was the best so used all three of them since they were all tasty and mildly spicy. I probably should have just got the carnitas because I was really full after eating everything. The bartender/waitress was very friendly and great. The bar atmosphere was good too. They had happy hour specials that were good Mon-Friday from 4-6pm which was good drinks and there was a drink and food specials menu as well. Overall, very good experience and probably be back again and maybe try the burger or just stick to the carnitas which were great. A+ dining experience!

    This place is my go to for a fun evening with friends. The food is good, fresh and very flavorful. I don't usually like a lot of fusion restaurants but I think this one does a really good job of balancing Asian and Latino flavors and styles. Very innovative and the drinks are so much fun. Staff is great and attentive and the ambiance just exudes a good time. Plan on coming back again and again!

    Sadly I have to update my previous five- star review. Before our most recent visit, we had always visited this place during happy hour and there weren't many people in the restaurant. Last night we went during dinner and it was full of people. Service was atrocious. We were seated and then forgotten about. After sitting there for about 20 minutes, we got up and went to find someone that could help us with drinks. It turned out to be our hostess. Which she did a great job of, but she wasn't our server. The rest of the dinner turned out to be very disappointing. We had to go find someone again when we were ready to order. Drinks were not refilled all night without us asking. Mine sat empty for what seems like forever. And to top the night off, a waitress was bringing beverages to our table and spilled beer all down my back. We let the waiter know, and all he did was bring over a few napkins. So disappointing. Because I really thought this was a great establishment. So I've sadly updated my five star review to a one star. If you want to go, I guess you have to go when they're not busy, because they can't handle a full dining room, and you might go home smelling like beer.

    Oh man, my meal was great!! Had one Baja (fried flounder) and one Mahi taco and both were awesome. It was more than enough for a lunch meal. Kind of messy, but worth it. The prices for the tacos were reasonable and they were a dollar off because of Taco Tuesday!! I loved the outdoor seating, there was a border with flowers, which I loved. Much better than looking at a street or parking lot. The music was great, but not too loud. I can't wait to come back during happy hour!

    We recently had dinner at Union Taco, located at the all new Summit Pointe, in the heart of Chesapeake. We have been here many times since they opened and we have never been disappointed. The staff is friendly, helpful and very prompt. Their ticket times are very fast, so beware if you order a hot appetizer because unless you mention it, you might get your entrees before you finish your appetizer. They recently opened up for outdoor dining over the Summer. One a nice evening, I would definitely consider sitting outside. I'm a big fan of Birria Tacos and they make an excellent version of this classic dish. We always have a great experience here, and I highly recommend checking them out when you're in the area, or even just make a special trip, it's well worth the drive...

    So pleasantly surprised by this taco place! First of all live music, absolutely obsessed. Perfect on a saturday night! He was so fun and talented making the vibe fantastic. The mix and match tacos made it so fun and the burritos are HUGE! Will definitely be going back when in the area. The panko coated shrimp was my absolute fav!

    Let me start by saying Mateo was great at answering my questions and helping me with the menu. The establishment was nice and spacious. The chicken tortilla soup was really bland, lacking flavor. The tacos were good but the portions were small and the meat was skimpy. I do not know if it was because it was a to go order that it lacked meat but I will try them again and maybe dine in. The prito shrimp and blackened taco were delicious!

    Came here for dinner with a group of friends. I had made a reservation so we were seated quickly. We were there during happy hour so we tried the $5 margaritas which were good. We also got the union trio for an appetizer. The queso was everyone's favorite out of the three dips. I tried 3 of the tacos: the bulgogi beef, prito hipon, and Korean bbq chicken. The tacos were great and flavorful!! The shrimp was fresh, the sauce on the chicken was yummy. The bulgogi was good, a little over cooked. We got the Brookie skillet for desert which was yummy!! Service was a little slow but overall a great time. Definitely will go back to try different items!!

    3.4 but by Chesapeake standards this is an above average option in the area. Skip the ahi tuna (not particularly fresh), but the carnitas entree is surprisingly good. The rice and beans are really good too. Service can be slow on Taco Tuesdays and during the lunch rush so order ahead if you're on a time constraint.

    We love this place! It's fusion so don't go in expecting differently! The elote corn fritters are delicious! They had a brussels sprouts appetizer for a while that was OUT OF THIS WORLD we keep asking if it will come back. I love the tacos and my husband loves the burrito. The fried rice is also 10/10. Margaritas are delicious too!! We probably eat here twice a month!!

    Union Trio - salsa, cheese dip, Guacamole

    A great addition to the Chesapeake Greenbrier area with Union Taco being their 2nd location. The menu has been elevated to like a fine dining experience. The ambiance is beautiful. This is a solid place for good tacos, bowls, burritos, drinks, appetizers and more! The drink selection is insane. You will find something. They also have happy hours and $1 off tacos on Tuesdays. The management and chef take great pride in their dishes. My hubs has a favorite go to taco and he noticed they changed up the recipe a bit. When the management was walking around checking on people, my hubs asked about his taco. They actually said they did changed it up! And they welcomed his feedback because now they can make adjustments. Wow, they really care! They also stay open pretty late for the area so whenever you're in the area, please check them out!

    Churro Sundae

    Thought it was time for me to try this location I've been to the one in Norfolk. Very very nice area. Lots of brand new restaurants. Once you walk in you're greeted right away, there was plenty of seating, and a very nice bar. We were sat right away. The food was very good. We ordered a few appetizers we tried the street corn fritters, which were very good. And of course we did chips and queso cheese. I ordered a margarita seeing as we arrived early enough to enjoy happy hour! I ordered my absolute favorite Birra Tacos with double rice no beans. They didn't disappoint. The rice could use a little help. It was very hard and crispy. My friend ordered a bowl it had steak, chicken and shrimp (3) small shrimp she was very disappointed that it only had 3 shrimp. She agreed that the rice was over cooked and really crispy and hard. Our waiter was friendly, but at first he seemed like he was in a rush. He messed up my drink order. But that's okay. At first he visited our table frequently, but as soon as our food arrived and we needed him he was no where to be found. On the plus side before our meals came out the chef came out and stopped and talked to a few tables! He was very nice! I love to see a chef come out the kitchen to check on guests. Dessert time boy was I impressed I have to say out of all the Mexican restaurants I've been to this was hands down one of the top three desserts I've had!! Churro Sunday was so good. Usually I only eat 1/2 but not this time I ate my whole dessert! My friend had the key lime pie she said it was overly sweet. She also stated the slice was very small for the price. I have to agree the slice was very small. Especially compared to other establishments. I definitely will be back maybe I will try something different! We shall see!

So, I was hopeful that the WXYZ lounge and bar in Chesapeake would be similar and provide a great atmosphere to get together for a fun, chill hangout with our friends. We were not disappointed. There was ample seating and a large table where we were able to share a meal and play board games. The lounge has games in the lobby area, which we weren't expecting, but was nice to see. We had brought our own games. My friend ordered a mocktail and enjoyed it. The four of us ordered chicken buffalo dip and fish and chips to share. I couldn't eat the chicken buffalo dip because I have a dairy allergy, but everyone said it was good. I did really enjoy the fish and chips. The fries were hot, thick, and well seasoned. The cod was very tasty as well, the skin was perfectly crispy but the meat was tender inside. While we didn't take pictures of the menu this time, I took a look at the menu online and there are some options listed on the website that were not printed on the physical menus we saw, but for what was the same the prices matched. The fish and chips isn't on the website but was on the physical menu and was affordable (two pieces or cod and ample fries). Our server (also the bartender) was nice and provided good service. The hours that they're open make it a great hangout spot for Friday nights and weekends. The restrooms are clean. The noise level was moderate and fine. We definitely recommend for hanging out with friends and will be coming back in the future.

It's in the same group of buildings such as Michael's (around the corner). My visit here was on October 27, 2025. The outside view of the business is simple, but effective. They have a specials chalkboard next to the entrance. Parking wasn't an issue on this visit, but I'm sure it can fill up at busier times. My mom and I were both in the area as she wanted to go to the Michael's store here. When we came inside, it wasn't busy, as it was around 3:30 pm when we got here. We were greeted by the one who would be our server for this visit. He gave us menus to look at and asked us for our drink orders. I generally stick with water with lemon, which I did here. We were there during the time where it was still the lunch menu (though for us, it was more like dinner for us that day). When he came back with the drinks, he asked if we were ready to order, but we weren't just yet. He also asked if we had any questions about the menu and options and gave us more time to mull over the menu. When he came back, we weren't completely ready, but asked a question about the specials of the day. After that, we knew what we would get and placed our food order. My mom ordered the Meatloaf Lunch Special with mashed potatoes and spinach. I went with the Meatball Sub Lunch Special with mashed potatoes, though I don't normally do potatoes that often. After about ten minutes or so, the food came to the table. The food looked really good, and it was hot too. The bread for the Meatball Sub was very soft and easy to eat. The meatballs were huge and made for a worthy meal. The mashed potatoes with gravy was really good and fulfilling too. My mom loved the meatloaf, and their meatloaf doesn't have ketchup on it like some other places do. She loved the meatloaf, spinach, and mashed potatoes too. After we were done, he asked if we wanted any desserts. We both declined as I normally don't do them anymore. Overall, we both had an excellent experience here. The food and service were on point. The food I had that day did spike my blood sugars, but I expected that with bread and mashed potatoes. I don't make a habit of that though. They are a great local business. There are lots of food options to choose from. If you are looking for a place to eat while in this part of Chesapeake, this place is worth coming to.
