    carne asasa

    I honestly don't understand how this place has 4 stars on Google and Yelp. I've been to plenty of Mexican restaurants, and this was one of the worst experiences I've had. A couple weeks ago, I tried to place a to-go order, but the hours listed online didn't match the door. I stood there for about 10 minutes while multiple employees walked past me, only for them to finally say it was too late to order. This weekend, my family gave it another try, and it was no better. Service was painfully slow--drinks took forever, and they didn't return for food orders until about 15 minutes later (and it wasn't even busy). Refills were rare, but the second we finished eating, they rushed to clear our table. As for the food? Bland. The red salsa wasn't great, the carne asada was thick and chewy, and despite asking for extra rice (no beans), I barely got any. The only positive was the salsa verde, which was actually good. All in all, disappointing from start to finish. I won't be back.

    My husband suggested we try a new place to eat. He isn't fond of most Mexican restauaunts but someone he works with recommended this restaurant. The environment was nice. It was a quiet Saturday. We were greeted and seated right away. We got chips and salsa. Drinks were brought and we ordered food quickly. The Dos Equis amber paired well with the salsa and the salsa was not a chunky type. We ordered kids arroz con pollo, adult arroz con pollo with shrimp, 2 enchiladas with rice and beans and a kids chicken nuggets and fries. Everyone really enjoyed their meals. My husband said the chicken and shrimp were seasoned very well. The enchilladas were delicious. The chicken tenders were just Dino chicken nuggets. We really enjoyed the food and experience and we will definitely be back!

The lunch specials are also great - got a spicy chimichanga. A ton of food for $11! Service was great too. We'll be back!

Our kid was given a printed paper kid menu with activity with no crayons(which almost at the end of the visit we found they had but never bothered to give) . We were served 2 glasses heavily iced water (without checking with us , no water for our kiddo) and then for the longest time no one came by. After a while when the server came, we asked for water with no ice and one kiddie cup which the server didn't look pleased to bring -just dumped unceremoniously minus straws. It's like the staff here don't care or are super lazy. They just sat there chitchatting near the bar area with some drinks in hand and I had to literally stand/wave to get their attention which didn't work either so I walked to the back to ask for the straws. They never bothered to clear the iced water from our table. The server had no recommendations on food and when we asked spice levels on some items she was clueless. The food was bland at best with no flavor. The tacos were just a meh! And at almost $5 for a taco we have had much better for way cheaper at other places.. The side of roasted vegetables with quinoa was a joke - just vegetables with a sprinkle of uncooked quinoa in it!!!?! Nobody came to check with us if we needed anything else once our initial order was delivered. Again had to walk back to the servers to ask for the cheque by which point we were just done with this place! Not sure how this restaurant has a good rating but would never like anyone to have the same experience we had! Would give no stars if that was an option!

The room bursts with…read morecolor--bright tiles, warm lights, and the quiet hum of conversation--while the air carries the mouth-watering perfume of grilled carne asada, roasted chiles, fresh cilantro, and warm tortillas. Before you even sit down, Martinsville, you know something delicious is 'bout to go down. Then the chips arrive and salsa with such a dynamic taste one bite wakes up the whole palate; it's almost impossible to stop reaching for "just one more." When the main dishes land on the table, it's like a parade of color and aroma. Plates spill over with bold and beautiful balance. And the guacamole--oh, the guacamole. Avocado whipped with bright lime, fresh cilantro, and just enough salt to make the flavors sing. It tastes alive. What truly elevates the whole experience is the spirit of the place. The staff move through the room with warmth and genuine joy, as if they're hosting a gathering of friends rather than simply serving customers. By the end of the meal you're happily full, slightly amazed, and already plotting your return. At "the horseshoe" it's not just dinner...it's more!
