Customer Reviews

Exceptional menu: traditional Mexican American entrees, as well as some less traditional combinations, and plenty of seafood options. I loved that my meal came with grilled fresh broccoli and zucchini! We ordered Mariachi special. The chorizo was delicious. And poblano peppers with shrimp, with a rich creamy sauce, not your traditional Chiles Relenos. Generous portions. You will not leave hungry.

We stopped by today to enjoy some Mexican food at one of our favorite restaurants. We enjoyed some chips and salsa while we were deciding what to order. We settled on the 2 taco lunch special, 2 steak boritos and 2 chicken quesadillas with beans and rice, some ice tea to wash it down with. We had a good time

I've come here probably twice a month since finding this gem with my family. The bartender is personable and drinks are always delicious. The food is amazing. Service is always great. They are kid friendly as well and have made single items for my toddler. Highly recommend.

Dined here with a party of 8. Staff was friendly, seated us quickly, took drink order right away. Chips and salsa so good!!!! We tried a bunch of menu items between all of us, all was very tasty, their side of beans are especially well seasoned. Would definitely recommend and return if we come back through Montross.

We were amazed at how clean the restaurant was, both inside and out. Even the windows sparkled! The interior was bright and well decorated with Mexican scenes painted on tabletops and chairs. The server was super prompt and friendly and our food was delivered quickly. It was fresh and plentiful. It's nice to know that such a quality and reasonably priced restaurant exists in the Northern Neck.
