    Beef Enchiladas
    David H.

    This place is okay but nothing really stands out as amazing. The spicy guacamole was pretty good and the beef enchiladas were the definition of average, not bad but nothing amazing. The service is always friendly here and they don't usually seem to be overly crowded. I'll probably come back here since it's the closest Tex-Mex place but there are other better places in the area.

    Start off with chips and salsa
    Andy Y.

    Pass here everyday to/from home and finally decided to try this out. Was not busy for a Friday night, so no wait for a table. Around 9pm, the music turned up and the screens turned on to full blown karaoke night! It was the first of such event. But am I glad to finally try this place out. The chips and salsa to begin was nothing special as the chips were mostly all broken and some hardened, so may have been from the bottom of the pile. The salsa was good but big chunks of tomatoes. The server was very nice and helpful with his explanations of between the fajitas or the Arracheras Molcajete, which is what I ended up ordering (grilled steak and chicken). DELICIOUS! I know now to next time removing the cheese and meat surrounding the hot bowl as it quickly stuck to the bowl. It was perfect with the corn tortillas and chunks of the grilled jalapeño. Will be back and enjoy!

    Salsa

    Cuates recently opened near me, so I dropped by for lunch. Fresh chips and fresh salsa are served immediately upon being seated. The first time I visited, I had 3 tacos. They were OK, but nothing to write home about. Taco Bamba is the yardstick against which I measure tacos in NoVA. Cuates has a green sauce which is AMAZING. It's spicy enough to be interesting, but not so spicy you'll regret it later. The second time I went, I had the grilled steak arracheras Molcajete. If you're a hot stone bibimbap fan, you'll likely enjoy this. The steak was grilled and laid on the edge of a hot stone bowl. Inside the bowl is a sauce with scallions, nopales, jalapeno, avocado, and panela cheese in a home made red and green sauce. It is served with rice and beans on the side and several corn tortillas. This is my "go to" when I visit. They also have an excellent selection of top shelf tequila, but no Topo Chico. They also have a fantastic selection of Mexican beers. This is a great spot for lunch and they also serve dinner. On weekends, they have brunch, as well.

    Camarones mezcal with the wrong vegetables

    If I could leave a 0 star I would. When dinning in make sure you still wear your coat because it's still cold inside. Like turn up the heat. Took over an hour from ordering food until food hit the table. Ordered the camarones mezcal (shrimp roasted peppers and onions) . Got shrimps with vegetable medley. Father in law ordered a steak mid rare came out will done and burnt on top of that. Food was flavorless. Recommend chipotle over them

    Nachos chicken
    Heather R.

    Great decor and ambiance. Great service. Great food. Salsa is mild, chips are fresh and excellent. They leave water bottles at the table for refills. Good experience, would definitely return. Parking is a bit of an issue but i don't hold that against the business.

We came for a friend's birthday brunch and ordered a little bit of everything. The menu has so many dishes that are different from what you normally see at brunch. My top three were easily the Dulce de Leche Pancakes, Shrimp & Grits and Lorraine Quiche. The pancakes were out of this world and something I would specifically come back for. The Shrimp & Grits have a chorizo étouffée that gives them a completely different flavor, and the quiche was incredibly moist rather than dry like so many others I've tried. We also enjoyed the beef empanadas, The Blue Ridge steak sandwich, salmon and charred peach salad, and prosciutto, onion and arugula pizza. Even the peach in the salad was surprisingly subtle and didn't overpower the dish. Don't skip the bakery case either! They have gorgeous fruit-shaped desserts, including an adorable lemon, plus plenty of pastries if you just want coffee and something sweet. Our server Diego was fantastic, and we even got to meet Chef Godfrey, who surprised us with dessert. They also have a patio and private spaces upstairs for events and celebrations. Overall, such a fun find with a really unique menu. I would absolutely return!

The music was calming, the beautiful scenery and the space was a large space, way bigger than I thought! We had Diego as our waiter and staff and he's knowledgable, provide great recommendations and also helped us out with many of our requests! Now comes the food: We got a full table of delicious food. 1. The Lorraine quiche : Very crunchy outside and soft and hot with delicious filling inside. I am not a quiche girl but I deff love their quiche. 2. The trios empanahas : i am a true empanada fan and their beef empanas and the sauce mix so well together. 3. The prosciutto pizza was HUGE. Deff can feed 4 people , their crust was crispy and the pizza was not too thick so you don't get bored eating it. 4. The banana foster french toast... HEAVEN. the banana was perfectly camelize and the strawberries and berries was the perfect mix fruit with it and the portion was also huge. 5. Tres les ches Pancakes was hot, crispy but also soft and honestly my FAV out of all the dishes. 6. Wild Salmon and charred peach was an interesting salad. The salmon was cooked to perfection, still moist but a lil crunch outside and large piece . The salad dressing was perfect with it. I would love to eat this one everyday. 7. My first time for the grits. Shrimp and grits was delicious. The portion is large and shrimp was paired perfectly with the grits. I think frits will now be on my daily rotation breakfast thanks to Godfrey. 8. We got a hot matcha because we love matcha and it was delicious! Very creamy and the matcha tasted ceremonial. 9. We also got the blue ridge sandwich, it had delicious camelized onion and based on Diego's suggestion, we switched it out for the sourdough and it was delicious. Sandwich was filled inside. We asked to sit outside for lunch and brunch but you could also sit inside for cafe items like croissant , muffin and coffee. They also have rooms upstairs for big parties that can be reserved through open table. Overall, the experience was amazing and I would not be able to top this birthday brunch anytime soon!

I loved the decor and furniture and it definitely has a nice atmosphere. Unfortunately, the food just didn't match the price point for us. For what we paid, I expected the quality to be much better and neither of us thought the food was all that good. Cute place and great service, but between the limited menu, pricing and food quality, I personally don't see us returning.

Service: First, I have to call out the service. It was fantastic and the manager was wonderful. When we walked in, the manager showed us the menu, gave recommendations on what to get (get the breakfast plate and hot egg plate), said no pressure, and introduced us to the woman working the cash register who also brought us our food. He later sent us two baklava pieces after we finished our meal. We were beyond surprised and let me say...they were delicious. He was so nice, the vibes of the restaurant were so friendly and it was a welcoming atmosphere. Food: We got the breakfast plate and hot egg plate which was recommended and is the best deal. For the egg plate I got the menemen (tomatoes and peppers with eggs) which was so good. I don't like cooked tomatoes, so I am not sure why I like this or how they make it, but it is delicious and not super tomatoey. The breakfast plate comes with 2 pita, dips, tomato, cucumber. We also got the Turkish Sausage eggs which are great and have slim cut pieces of sausage in them. We also got 2 simits, 2 boreks and 2 teas. The baklava was outstanding! We tried what I think was the regular which had a floral tone to it, the chocolate and the tahini. The tahini was my favorite by far - I had never tasted anything like it. Each piece is $2 and affordable. Seating: There is indoor and outdoor seating. I believe there may have been 8 tables inside? It is set up well in that you can make the tables smaller or bigger. Square and round tables. Good for groups larger than 4. Outdoor seating has a ton of tables and was in the shade when we were there. Parking: Super easy. They have a gravel lot on the side of the restaurant.

We were told we could sit at the bar or outside, but when we asked for one of the open tables, we were denied because they were "reserved for parties of three." That just doesn't make sense. We're still paying customers, ready to order food and drinks. Denying service like that--especially with empty tables in plain sight--feels unnecessary and rigid. I even asked twice, hoping for a little flexibility, but the answer didn't change. I work in the service industry, and this is exactly the kind of situation where you make an exception or use some common sense. Instead, it felt like policy over hospitality. Really disappointing experience for a place I was excited to try.
