Went today for the first time and let me tell you, it is only the first of *many* future visits. Excellent authentic food; I read in the Richmond Times Dispatch they grow many of their own ingredients and it absolutely shows. Quality is stellar for reasonable price! If you’re looking for incredible mexican street food, this is THE place.
My hubby and I discovered this delicious little restaurant/bodega while searching for a place to grab some lunch in Richmond.
OMG it was so good! Real authentic yummy Mexican food for a reasonable price. We both had the combo plate which includes your choice of 3 items and a canned soda for around $12.
I chose the chicken tamale, chicken flauta, and beef tostado. Hubby chose a shredded beef burrito, a shredded beef street taco, and a chicken tamale. The tamales are hand made onsite, unfortunately they were out of the red chile pork, but the chicken one was delicious.
The chicken flauta was actually the best flauta I have ever eaten. The tostada was loaded with mouth watering shredded beef, no cheap bland hamburger here. It was hands down the best Mexican food that I have had since moving to Virginia from Arizona. Although they did not serve chips and salsa, they had small containers of red, green, and a smoky adobo salsa, no strange white gloop at this restaurant. Although it wasn't fancy, it was clean, the employees were extremely welcoming, and the food was drool worthy.
I will definitely stop in the next time I am in the Richmond area!
We’ve been here 15+ times. It’s amazing Mexican food, especially the burritos. They are California/TexMex handheld style and packed. The salsa is made there and so good! Plus they are a market. Top marks all around!
