Disgusting food

E.E O

Food is OK, Tacos are delicious but small. I could tell the rice was overheated from the day before probably, beans weren't good. 3 stars for good Tacos.

Michel van Heerden

We came here the evening before Memorial Day. I think we were the only gringos in the place but we most definitely were the only gringos from The Netherlands

Maty Bradbury

Food was decent for an hour and a half wait after we were sat.

Jose Fabian

It's a very cool place! Tacos and micheladas are the main reason I keep going there. The heating man! I been going there for YEARS! in the summer the AC is broken. In the winter the Hearing is broken? I over heard the "manager" give excuses why it was not working it went from I tried to there is too much dust on it. Then blaming costumers for opening the door???? If you been there on a Friday night you know how busy this places gets! PLEASE have this fix you guys have so many costumers complaining about it. It's a cool place! Good food n alrighty drinks.

S McD

Great family-friendly restaurant; food was good. Friendly customer service. Saturday night is Mariachi and Spanish karaoke night, which was quite fun to experience.

Tony B

I will return great authentic tacos.

Barbara Washington

We stopped for lunch after our Mt. Vernon visit. Food was great!

Jess Garcia

This place is amazing loved the food. It’s a family place you can’t go wrong coming here I didn’t give them a 5 star just because the juice drink is not fresh but other than that it’s a great place to eat and enjoy love music

David ramos

One of the best authentic Mexican places around here . After 7 years of searching this is still one of the better ones. But service scan be better.

Anointed LadyVoice

Wonderful, warm atmosphere with a friendly staff. The food is absolutely DELICIOUS! You can tell the food was prepared with love..

If I could give negative stars, I would. Don't go here if you have dietary restrictions or if you expect good customer service. I ordered fajitas with shrimp only. I specifically told the waitress that I only wanted shrimp, no chicken or beef. I started eating the meal when I got it and then I noticed there was beef all over the bottom of the plate. I called the waitress back and showed her and reminded her that I asked for shrimp only. I'm guessing there was a language barrier because she just walked away and the manager came back a while later. When he came, he asked what the problem was. I explained that I asked for shrimp only. Everyone at my table heard me specifically ask for shrimp only, as I say it several times for the same reason. He asked me if I wanted a discount. He never apologized or offered me another meal. I told him that I do not want a discount, I asked for shrimp only because I haven't eaten beef or chicken in over 3 years and it will make me sick. I'm not paying for a meal I can't eat because they put ingredients in there that I specifically asked to leave out. I snatched the plate and walked away. Everyone at the table of of 9 was left sitting there in shock that the manager handled the situation that way. Save your money, there are at least 3 other authentic Mexican restaurants within a block radius of this place. I will encourage all of my coworkers never to return and I will continue to tell everyone I know about my horrible experience. Mistakes happen and I understand that. As a customer, I feel like if you serve someone something that could potentially make him/her sick, don't ask if he/she wants a discount and snatch the plate with an attitude because the staff made a mistake, apologize and try to make it right.

Alaina Barnes

Filling and tasty. Good visit.

John Havens Jr

Good food, fast service

pablo baires

Nice place but its expensive

Jorge Huerta

The service is too bad. The waitresses are planted at your table and demand that you finish what you are eating or drinking because they have to close, never seen this in any other restaurant. The person who does the Karaoke on Saturday offends you on the microphone making you feel super bad, she is a person without education or respect to the client. I Tried to spend a nice evening with my family and they made me spend the worst night in that restaurant.

Eric Hansen

Great food at a reasonable price.

Jose Ramirez

Truly authentic Mexican food. The tacos are delicious.

Glen Wilson

Wonderful authentic family made food. Been a couple of times and will go again!

Daisy Reese

If you're looking for authentic Mexican (tex-mex style) then look no further! Tacos, Pozole, Chiles Rellenos, Enchilas... need I say more??? Great staff, delicious food! They offer military discounts. Taco Tuesday. The only complaint is that they don’t disclose they add their tip to the bill and still put a “TIP” line. I’ve double tipped many times without being aware of this until I took a picture of the bill.

D See

-1 if I could, horrible establishment! I got food poisoning! Also saw someone brushing their teeth in the back where the dishes go. Waitress was horrible, menu said one price, receipt said another, when asked about, she lied. Avoid this and go to tacos jalisco!

Mandy Walters

Best taquitos ever; everything is delicious!

Carlo Pietri

Great food, friendly staff, great prices. Recommend to anyone

Manuel Maravilla

Delicious food and authentic Mexican food with great customer service and nice people

Antony Torres

The absolute best Mexican food on this side of outer DC. My office loves it so much we are making it a bi-weekly visit to sit down and eat here. Amazing food and friendly staff with generous portions is a triple win. Plus they have Mango juice on tap!

Robyn Harris

Very good food and Thursday special. The server Erica was friendly and helpful. Margarita freat

Dana

Amazing and authentic Mexican food. The fajitas are the best I’ve ever had and the molcajete dishes are also outstanding. Highly recommended.

Harmony Gauthier

If I could give no stars, I would. Waitress checked on us once as a pass by. No refills on our drinks, the tacos weren't as good as the ones in Springfield, and we had a split check (which took over 30 minutes to get) and she said my friends card was declined so she used mine and we found out the next day we had both been charged for her ticket. All around terrible.

Liam Riccardo

Delicious food, great service, and very welcoming. If I ever make it back to this party of the country, I will be coming back.

smelly dead cat

Excellent and authentic! Very good, worth a stop.

Francesco Leone

TACOS♥️

Jose _wzd

I really love this place

Darlene Griffin

Nice, authentic Mexican food

Richard Jones

Good spot for street tacos and everything else is pretty good too. I would dodge mariachi night unless it's really your thing. Michilata is on point

Angie Mauck

Service was Excellent as was the Food!!

Karina

My favourite Mexican restaurant... the closest taste of Mexico. .

Dion Lester

Great place to eat at! Best tacos I've every had!

Lewis Flores

I've been going to this place for a few years now here and there. When I first opened it was great!. At first...Awesome food and music. Honest working people. The last 3 times I've gone back its been awful. No lie. Every time I walk In there and I get my check there's always an extra item on my tab. I went a few days ago my girlfriend saw she that the waitress was being very pushy with us. I wasn't in the drinking mood and she kept trying to sell me more beer. When we got our tab there was a miniral water on our tab. I don't know what's going on with this place. We'll never going back again.

David Lowry

The gorditas!

Dj Erikg

Great food and service.

Maxine Gregg

Great food. Good service

Oscar Avila Contreras

There was a long wait to be seated with a longer wait for the food to arrive on top of the food not being worth it all

Marlin Martes

Decent place for a family outing. Tacos weren't amazing but the shrimp soup was really good.

Sean Beardsley

Whatever you do get the parrilla steak tacos! Phenomenal. Food was good to great and margaritas are huge! Oh yeah mariachis showed up at 430pm on Sunday to add to the atmosphere!

Wally Gator

Best taco place in Ft Belvor area

Tony Figueroa

Be aware that the price on the menu is not exactly what is comes with the bill...

Darling Lievano

Found a hair in my taco....the most disgusting thing that's ever happened to me. I did not receive an apology nor a discount. I will not be going back there. And for the people who do go, examine your food before you start to eat.

E Lo

Their tacos and micheladas are the only things worth going to a loud, stuffy, dirty place for. The rest of their food and drinks are bland and watered down.

Yessika Vigil

Good costumer service, good michelada, pretty good taste.

Samantha Ozuna

Food was great! My son who is a very picky eater ate everything! Real authentic Mexican food. Service is a tad slow, but worth the wait. :)

Bodach Liath

So much fun. Try to go there when they have live mariachi. The food is great and very authentic.

Jorge Rios Sorto

It was great

Jon LaMarre

Great establishment. Staff and management are very friendly, and their karaoke night was a a blast whether you sing or not.

Tanya Ranz

Edit: I was just here again today June 14, 2019 and the fish was actually better than I had remembered. So fresh and crispy! 10/10 The food was delicious and super fresh! I had the fish dish, a michelada and one jarrito, I couldn't be happier with my meal! Would absolutely recommend this place to anyone! Service was friendly and attentive. Will be back very soon!!

Ron Mecredy

I was really impressed with the freshness and quality of my dinner. This renovated old pizza hut is kept very clean and open. The staff was super friendly and my service was great.

Sumit Chhikara

Delicious food. Will come back again!

Greg Diamond

Love this place. Worth driving down from DC.

Isaac J

Good food. Live music when I went. Hot as hell inside though.

Joe Portera

Great food. Authentic. As good as you’re going to get in VA or Maryland.

Nicky Coogan

It was so awesome to find AUTHENTIC MEXICAN FOOD in Northern Virginia. The food was so fresh, great spices. It was really crowded, but only took about 10 minutes for a table. We ordered drinks at the bar while we waited. I ordered spicy margarita. I loved to the DC area from Texas and I finally found a authentic, casual Mexican restaurant.

Francisco Garcia

Truly authentic food. Attention to detail. Friendly service. Pleasant atmosphere.

Carole Mitchell

I went to this place because it was in the category where the locals go. This was a fun place to go to. There was a Mariachi band playing when I got there. They were good but a little loud. After the band was done they have karaoke which was fun to watch. The food and drink were good. The salsa had good flavor and the chips were light. The Guadalajara margarita was tasty and had the right amount of alcohol. I was surprised at the size when they brought it out, but I was used to the 24oz glass at the restaurants near me. The beef and chicken fajitas were full of flavor and had plenty to fill me up. I highly recommend adding the lime juice to your meal. Overall I would consider this a good place for most casual lunches or dinners. My bill was a a little higher than what I'm used to, but was typical for the area. If I get back to the area, I will definitely go back to this place.

Jesus Guzman

We were 16 people that showed up at the door with no announcement still, they managed to arrange desks. The food was simply AWESOME!!!! Thank you guys, y'all were our lifesavers!

Kimberly Buffaloe

Love the food...the nachos, guacamole and quesadilla are so yummy

Lorie Day

The food is as authentic as you can get in the real heart of Mexico! This is the best Mexican food I have ever had...and I used to live in Mexico! The owner was very attentive and ensures the guests are well taken care of. All of the food is hand made in the restaurant and it shows in the quality and flavor! An absolute MUST TRY!

ZOILA HERNANDEZ

Its not a family atmosphere any more!!

Claudia Alfaro

I love it... the food is always great!!

Kelly Heaton

Portions were moderate. Taste was good. Stingy with the chips and salsa. (Table of four brought us a tiny bowl of salsa and one small bowl of chips and never offered more.) What's up with that?

Marlene McLaughlin

Knew it would be good and authentic when it place was filled with all Mexicans

Claudia Celina de Fatima Shaw

Excellent service, excellent food. Mariachi from 430 to 630 every Sunday

Felipe Ramos

I ordered 5 tacos- 3 beefs and 2 Al Pastors (Pork). Beef tacos are 3 out of 5, because it is little dry and good meat. Al pastors tacos are 4 out of 5, so it is really good taste and little juicy. Next time I will go there for only Al Pastors taco.

Claudia Shaw

$ and delicious!

Alan Carrico

We moved here from Arizona 2 months ago and have been searching for some legit Mexican food with no luck until we found this place! No east coast interpretation of what they think Mexican food is, this is the real deal.

SanToS bHUSAl

Good place, good food and drinks with a very good customer service. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for an authentic Mexican food and drinks.

Paty Arellano

Delicious food and good people to help at the services

Michelle Figueroa

Great food and service! Mariachi are on point and Karaoke

Amin Karim

The margaritas here are very good and authentic

Raymond Wagner

Good place, fast and friendly staff..

Maria Amaya

if you want to try good tacos here is the place

Leonidas Castellon

Tacos the best

Dean Akers

Food was EXCELLENT but service was NOT. We were a party of 8, and they charged us over 30% for tip. Menu didn't say anything about them doing it or anything.

Kevin Roldan

Great Tacos!

Tyler Grodrian

The food and service here were great at lunchtime on a weekday. The house salsa and chips however, left a little too be desired. The Burrito Loco is about the size of a grown man's forearm, so make sure you're hungry if you decide to eat here, and the tacos were amazing. Definitely will be coming back!

Gabriel Yañez

Great tacos, friendly service. The horchata is water based and not that great. Decent selection of tequilas and good happy hour specials. Come for the tacos.

Mark Sandoe

Fantastic mariachi band playing. Restaurant overcrowded but food was great.

Taihi Lewis

Great food and lots of food for the price.

Ricardo Villarreal

Best place to get tacos near Ft. Belvoir.

Trevor Reilly

Great food and service..

Marta M

They have the best tacos I've had in a while, definitely coming back soon!

Keturah Mcallster

Although a majority of the waitresses were not very friendly, in fact a few just dont know how to not stare. Is it because I'm white, is it because I just got off work and had dry wall dust on my pants? Was I not eating the soup right? Look...the food was outstanding and they have a few choices that I haven't seen ANYWHERE else (yes, I ordered one of them and it was aaaamazing) amazing enough to earn five stars even though the waitresses made me feel self conscious about how I eat soup

Justin Sayre

Food is amazing. Servers work together to ensure all of your needs are met. Would give more than 5 stars if I could.

Victor manuel Menjiver

3rd time going and no A.C

ghost _

Absolute nightmare. Food was undercooked and got my family sick. Management and employees were very rude and truly unprofessional. Terrible experience. HATED IT. Will not recommend. Dine at your own risk.

Avianca 747

Great Food!

John Splain

Great food, good portions, fair prices. Very good service.

Mark Young

Food was really good. Service was good. Live music.

Joseph M Finck

Great food, awesome service, nice atmosphere.

Mary Anne Soliz-Gaulke

l.o.v.e.d.... The food. It was very authentic. Just a little over priced.

Tom Haase,jr

Food was good but wanted to wear 5 of us at a table for 2 and waitress was a little upset when we wanted 2 tables put together prices are a little high and sodas are expensive and mixed drink are too plus they don't put the correct mix in the drinks no liquor at all the big reason for2 stars is the driver is and they added a $14- to to my bill after I already gave the waitress a $15- cash tip I will try the carry out next time

Erick Garcis

Service and food are wonderful and has improved throughout the years. One of my favorite places to eat Mexican food

Mariana MC

The huarache was super greasy, their tamarind juice was perfect and the tongue taco delicious, but the waitress wasn't helpful when we asked questions and didn't seem very friendly in general

Olympia Motors

Takes way too long (20mins.) To order 4 tacos, when the place is dead! And the service is mediocre. Food is ok, not worth the wait if you are on lunch brake though, just saying!

Natalie Portugal

Horrible service!!!!! Rude waitress and management is poor. GO Somewhere ELSE!!!

martin martinez

I was worried moving to the East Coast would be issue since I wasn't sure I would be able to find an authentic Mexican restaurant. However Rico's Taco's Moya restaurant provided the home comfort I've only ever felt back in hometown San Diego,CA. Absolutely delicious!

Melanie

Good! Open for New Year's. Friendly service.

Beto Camacho

Our very first time at this place, pricy !! a single avocado on a molcajete $8.00 bucks

David Caccavo

Super fun place cheap entres good food. Older decor ads to the charm.

Michael Perez

They give themselves a tip when for a party of 1.

Steve Bates

The place is clean but the wait for food is incredibly long and the flavors are rather bland. I am sure at another time or takeout is better but as friendly as they are I will not return.

Gloria Gblokpor

I will recommend this place to any one, any day. Food was good, drinks were great and customer service was superb

Pedro Mckinnnie

Great places for authentic Mexican tacos. Can’t tell you about the rest of the menu I only get tacos :)

jose lemus

This is one of the most favorite place to eat tacos they are very very delicious

Teresa Zeledon

Tacos are good, but I'm not sure abut the rest of the menu. I was not too thrilled with the taste of food.

Dennis Franco

excellent attention delicious food to share with friends and family

Leonidas Benitez

Is good place everything is good

N Raley

The greeters were friendly, but it quickly deteriorated after being seated. The air conditioning was not working properly and they had one fan to circulate the air. Add that they were busy - the music was deafening loud made this okay experience go to worse. The waitress couldn't get the order right - she brought us the wrong sides- but we kept them because of the noise and communication being so difficult. The $10.00 margarita was diluted - add an extra shot at $11.00 = $21.00 for one drink - not worth it...The steak- shrimp fajitas- overcooked /dry- the grilled veggies-mushy. Too expensive for the poor quality. Perhaps a less busy night would be a better experience and we avoid the above dish and drinks.

Ana Bermudez

I love the food the only problem is that management is really bad !! And please don’t drink the Orchata taste nasty !!

Precious Bumbrey

Great food and entertainment

Nicki White

Great food!!! Good staff also

Maria Lemus

The food took over 30 minutes and orders were wrong.

Angie Padilla

Amazing food definitely coming back

Magali Gzlz

Really Mexican food, Mariachi music, I love this place .

Edward Rodriguez

Food is great. Not sure about the place since I've never eaten there.

Valerie Acosta

The free chips tasted like fish, which means they don't change the oil frequently. The waitress totally messed up our checks and gave some of our party the wrong check and charged a different amount than on the wrong check anyway. Food was average. Greasy.

Jose Nina-Quispe

Great place to eat tacos but idk if the AC was working last week but it was hot in there

Marcus D Hill

Over priced unsanitary. Food was so so for the amount of money spent you can go up the street and get more food with far better customer service.

Bryan Adams

Go for the tacos. All are tasty, but the tripa taco is really delicious.

Scott Davis

Every thing was excellent, especially the homemade guacamole

Stephen Rohe

Amazing plus the margaritas are perfect

Javier Miranda

it took wait too long for the food to get serve and it was almost empty about 45 minutes for 1 taco and 2 sopes

Kevin Scott

Service was very nice, and I would definitely suggest the tacos

Bing Z

Great and authentic Mexican food.

J E Allen

Had 6 tacos al pastor and they were fantastic and filling. The red and green sauce served with the tacos have some heat and goes well with the meat. Very nice staff and cold beer!

Alejandro Moreno Rivias

Is a nice place to eat !!!

Zormarah Lyda

Waited 30 minutes to receive cold, overcooked, tasteless food. Customer service is subpar and the children just run too the back where they are preparing the food. Unsanitary establishment where the food is over priced and for no good (literally no good) reason. Never again. If you are looking for drunk food, this is it. Never again!

Luis Santacruz

Make it a point to see the Mariachi Band that plays here a couple of days a week & Kareoke ya nighttime! This place is so good that it crowds up quickly. Whether it's a margarita and some entertainment one seeks or excellent, super fresh and authentic food: this spot is perfect. The cost is more than reasonable and the service is quick, with homemade salsa and tortilla chips to pass the few minutes before dinner.

Anthony Pink

Tacos and food were authentic. Drinks were not as strong as you would expect from a Mexican restauruant.

Michael Miller

My wife and I went there for some tacos, and we got surprised by the ambient really nice and I think the manager or owner was there he was very friendly with all the people there.But the waiters wasn't friendly at all. NOW! tacos and Margarita wasn't the best and the. the Margarita you barely feel the alcohol and the tacos has almost nothing inside compared with other around the town. Hope they made some changes after this review.

Joshua Teeter

Great food! Authentic Mexican food is hard to come by. The staff is super friendly but they are a bit slow. I have been here twice now and will be a future frequent customer. EDIT: It's now been 7 months since my last review and am happy to say the service has improved!

Maddox Smith

Food was great! Portions were great! But SUPER loud on karaoke night, beyond all reason

Dan Bettini

What an amazing atmosphere! Awesome authentic food!

Laura Sybers

Best Mexican food I've ever had. Get the guacamole!!!!

Tony Swann

Average at best. Beatdown looking building. I was warmly greeted and seated at approximately 6 p.m., I was the only one there and the dining area, though there was a couple seated at the small bar. The salsa for chips was homemade but the chips we're not fresh and almost seemed store bought. I had carne asada tacos and again they were average at best very small pieces of meat well overcooked. Would not visit again.

Oscar Segovia

It was great! Would be nice if they had one in Manassas.

humberto gutierrez

Great tacos tripe tacos the best and the green and red salsas for tacos mmmm. Hiarache it's a good recomendation

Weber Lin

They have delicious authentic Mexican street tacos.

Ruber Cuellar

Great place and food, good attention!

Cristian Benitez-Garcia

Great food and decent prices.. however look at your receipt before leaving they automatically charge tip...

Cynthia Annette

Tacos de lengua were soooo good. And the drinks were good to. Good place to try out.

Mr O

Great place with authentic mexican food. Prices are reasonable and sometimes on Sundays they have live mariachi music. Food is really good and in a good location with plenty of parking.

Oscar Pinto

The food was good, I just didn't like the fact they included the gratuity without asking. We were not a big part either, just my wife and two kids
