“ I LOVE this place and I LOVE the owner! He checks on us every time we go in. Everything I have had to eat and drink has been outstanding. Best salsa in the area by far! (Huge salsa gal over here) Honestly, can’t say enough good things. Try it for yourself! ”
“ Enjoyed our dinner this evening..our first time. Service was wonderful and the food was delicious! House margarita was yummy! A hidden gem in Fairfax..check it out! We will be back! ”
“ Food is delicious with an amazing staff. My family & I go in often & are quite a lot to deal with but staff is just awesome to accommodate our larger family & littles. Fajitas are a must if you aren't sure what to try! Plus you can walk across the parking lot to Mikey's for some delicious ice cream afterwards. ”
“ We stopped here on a Sunday evening around 630. We were seated immediately. There was one lady seating and one lady taking orders. We had to wait a fair bit to get drink orders put in but a really long time before we were able to order food. We ended up putting in our appetizer and entrees at the same time. The waitress was awesome though about delaying our entrees so we had time to enjoy our appetizer first. We got the chilango nachos. Both I and my friend thought they were excellent though a different kind of nachos with nopal and mushrooms so may not be for everyone. My friend ordered the taco salad and I ordered the paztor burrito. Both entrees were very good with the taco salad a pretty standard fare though they did put the meat in the bottom with cheese right after so you got a nice melty cheesy mix. The burrito was huge. The rice and beans were pretty standard Mexican restaurant rice and beans. We ordered a strawberry blended margarita and a house margarita. Both of these came in a decent amount of time and were good. I would recommend this place as the food is good, the ppl are nice and prices are comparable to any other Mexican restaurant. Plus, you can get ice cream right next door if you want at Mikeys. ”
