★★★★★ 5.0 Mary · Jan 2026

We enjoy the Hampton location and enjoyed this dining experience as well. The menu is smaller, but plentiful to choose from. We enjoyed Texas fajitas, Texas margarita and Chimichanga dinner. The salsa has a unique flavor that enjoyed for a change from the typical salsa. The service was impeccable. They were busy and we only saw two servers around 3-4pm, but they were not lacking on service. Overall, an enjoyable experience at the new location across from Patrick Henry Mall in the old Applebee's location. It was clean and appealing inside. The Texas margarita was strong btw!

This building has been completely redone from its former Applebees era to a well done, modern, elegant, and romantic atmosphere. Really gorgeous on the inside. The staff was attentive but not annoyingly so. Very nice and friendly. The food was very good too. I got the Texas fajitas. A good amount of meat, not filled with just vegetables. Very generous portions, even extra tortillas. It was so nice that the music wasn’t too loud. It added to the ambiance but did not make it hard to talk to one another. I enjoyed it more than salsas, and Jose tequilas. My favorite used to be Juan’s but they’ve changed so much, it’s not as enjoyable. I’d definitely return here. I hope the word gets out about them and more people come.

This hidden gem offers a delightful dining experience. The food was impeccable, and the restaurant exudes a clean, well-lit ambiance. The bar is perfectly stocked, and the wine choices are extensive. The margaritas are absolutely perfect. The staff is friendly, attentive, and the food service is swift. If you’re seeking exceptional Mexican cuisine and delectable margaritas, this place is the place to be.

Was in town, dining alone, walking distance from the hotel -Why not. Great choice!! Clean, beautiful, attentive staff that serves smiles along with the great food. Super quick service and didn't rush me at all. DELICIOUS!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Jessica Beam · Jan 2026

Came here for lunch and was surprised. Cute and trendy interior and service was friendly. Ordered the chilaquiles which left a bit to be desired. The edd wasn't over easy and it was served with pico de gallo versus the pickled onions. You did have a choice of red or green sauce. And honestly hands down for the best tres leches ive had to date thus far in VA.
