Little gem in Whaleyville. Atmosphere was friendly and clean. Greeted when we walked in and seated immediately. Ordered and received everything quickly and accurately. Carnitas and fajitas were tasty. Got to chat with the owners while we waited for our order. Super friendly and showed they care about the service. We were regularly checked in on to make sure the food was good and drinks were topped off. We will be back!

We ate for the first time at the new Mexican restaurant and we are pleased to have such a wonderful place to go! The owners, Regina and Augustine, met us when we came in. They were warm, friendly and you can tell they love what they are doing. We ordered carnitas, a quesadilla fajita with chicken, a side of guacamole and the puffy sopapillas for dessert. Everything was fantastic. They asked if we wanted everything in the guacamole and made it without the jalapenos- per my request. It was chunky and flavorful with just the right touch of lime. I was SO excited to see puffy sopapillas instead of the flat ones. I truly hope everyone gives this spot a try.

We recently moved to Virginia from San Diego, California about a year ago and I’ve really missed good Mexican food, until now! This place is hands down the best I’ve found in the area. The food is fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. What really makes it special, though, is the owners. They’re so welcoming and personable, and you can tell they truly care about their customers. We were so excited to see this new spot open, and it has completely exceeded our expectations. I can’t recommend it enough!

We just flew into Virginia from Ohio and found this place on our drive to North Carolina! I am so glad we did! Helen was our server and she was very attentive and kind. We had the fajita burrito with steak, ala carte beef tacos, and an ala carte grilled chicken quesadilla. We also got the sopapillas and the churros. The food was delicious and served quickly! The total price for all three of us including dessert was under $60. We will stop back another time!

Was pretty busy for a weekday. We wanted to try it out, as we live near by. We love mexican food and were surprised how good the beans and the food (steak&carnitas) , fajitas, their sauces & chips, were. Fried ice cream was good too. We’ll definitely come back, it’s an excellent mexican. Gracias!
