We went to celebrate a birthday at Las Palmas. We were greeted promptly by Patric'ia when we entered. She asked if we preferred the big booth or a table. I chose the booth thinking it would be big enough. Unfortunately it's a tight squeeze if you're working with a bit of stomach!! Lol. The booth was an awkward shape. I felt trapped, but that's my fault not theirs. Just don't make the same mistake I made!! Patric'ia was very attentive to our needs and friendly. She made the visit pleasant!! We ordered fajitas, birria tacos, nachos, queso fries, chicken enchiladas, a burrito, calamari and etc. My chicken enchiladas were good with the rice. They were a little bland though. So I had to add a few things.. The fajita veggies were on the side and we enjoyed them also, it was enough to share. My daughter wished the queso fries were cheesier, but I think all the cheese fell to the bottom of the dish. So maybe getting it on the side is better. My sister said her chicken nachos were tasty with the guacamole. The calamari weren't my favorite because of the breading, but they were ok. My mom's boyfriend had never had birria before and he was happy with his tacos. He crushed those! My daughter's burrito was a good portion and she liked it. My mom enjoyed her fajitas as well!! We all had a great time and another gentleman who was sitting next to us who we were chatting with got up to leave, and surprised us with paying the bill for everyone!! We were extremely blessed and so thankful! That special treat made the visit even better!! It was so unexpected, but I guess we were at the right place at the right time!! Check them out!! read more

I love a good, Mexican restaurant and Las Palmas 4 is always my "go-to" since it's nearby and has great food. When you walk in, it smells absolutely amazing and the staff is always extremely friendly. The decor is very inviting and they're always playing great music! Since I was craving tacos, I decided on The Famous Tacos La Piedad, which included three spicy taqueria-style tacos, fresh guacamole and stewed beans. The tacos included one grilled steak, one grilled chicken and carnitas and they were absolutely delicious! My favorite was the carnitas for sure. The stewed beans were amazing as well! I ate the entire bowl lol! I also ordered a tamale but I wasn't a fan. I would've preferred no red sauce or cheese. If you're looking for great Mexican food and wonderful service, definitely stop in! You will not be disappointed!!! read more

Check your bill, they charge differently every time. Place is crooked. Check other reviews too and they play ignorant. Adjusted bill and then they added back on cheese. ordered well house drink repeatedly same size and it's a different every time. Once it was 19.99 but I didn't notice till I got home. Menu prices don't match. Beware all... will not be going back ever or any other one even if under different ownership. Sad because we actually liked their food. read more

Las Palmas 4 Mexican Restaurant - Adjusted receipt and they out cheese on this one- same drink same size different charge everytime- one time it was 19.99 lol - Mexican Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Las Palmas has several locations across the area as a local Mexican food chain. This location is in the Red Mill Walk section of Red Mill Commons in Virginia Beach. The entrance is accessible when traveling southbound on Upton Drive. It isn't hard to see them from the road. My most recent visit here was on December 13, 2025. The outside of the place is hard to miss. It has vibrant colors and attracts a view there. When coming in, it was what I was expecting from prior visits. The inside of the place is big, so they could easily accommodate larger parties. They have free Wi-Fi, with the current password being "savewaterdrinktequila". It's fitting since they have a sign of it on the wall. They do have a bar area inside. It had been a little while since I had been here, so I thought this would be great for my birthday. My mom was here with me too on this visit. We came in at a time where it wasn't as busy yet, so we were immediately seated. Someone came over to ask about what we would want to drink, and another came with the chips, salsa, and white sauce. They came back around to see if we were ready, but it took us longer as they have a large selection. We did order the Las Palmas Dip in as an appetizer though. Eventually we were ready to order, and I decided to go with the full California Burrito (chicken) with the tortilla (I normally do a burrito bowl instead). My mom got the Fajita Quesadilla with ground beef as the protein. The timing of when the food came out was perfect. We had just finished the dip we had ordered. Everything came out hot and fresh. The California Burrito was heavenly. It definitely hit the spot since I don't do the tortilla normally. The flavors complemented each other it was done great. Later on, it did spike my blood sugar, but it isn't something I do too often anyways. I had to splurge for my birthday after all. My mom loved the quesadilla she had too. We were both full at the end of the meal. I forgot that they knew my birthday, so after we were done, the staff came around and put the sombrero on, did a birthday song, and got a shot of tequila. Overall, this was an excellent experience overall. This includes the food, the service and the overall atmosphere. It is definitely upbeat and has a positive vibe in there. The colors inside help with that. With high quality food and service, I will definitely come back more often, though maybe avoid the tortilla next time. If you are in the Red Mill area and looking for a place for Mexican food, this place is definitely one to visit. read more

Las Palmas 4 Mexican Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

One of our favorite restaurants for Mexican food. The inside is pretty big lots of tables inside and outside on the terrace for nice Summer days. The staff is always friendly and we always get seated right away. I have also been able to make reservations many times for big groups. The food comes out quick and it's always fresh and hot. The drinks are also delicious and they make them so pretty with fruits all over. This is definitely one of our go to restaurants in the area. read more

Service was good. Food was microwaved, cold in the center. Not worth the money. Will never go back.

I like the atmosphere, they have great drinks and the birria pizza is amazing, I highly recommend that and the mangonada!

The food is amazing. I am so happy. My tummy is excited. I had the Camarones Yucatan, and my son had a steak burrito. The food was fresh, cooked to perfection, and perfectly plated. The service was wonderful. We were greeted immediately upon entering, and we were seated quickly. The restaurant was lovely. Very nice, southwestern colors all around. I loved the painting of the Mayan temple and daily Mexican life. The booths were very comfortable, and the tables were the perfect height. Just enough sauce and condiments are already on the tables, so you can start your meal right away. The glitches occurred when we tried to pay for our meal. The restaurant lost its connection to Mastercard and Visa providers, so we had to dig for cash. Then they had a little hiccup providing change. No big deal, it all worked out in the end, but it took a little time what we were allotted for meal time. We will be back to try the margaritas when the city power grid allows. Wonderful new experience! read more

was picking up and order for someone and gave me a hard time based on my appearance !!!

Service friendly welcoming! Food delicious, and fresh!! I had the shredded beef Chimichangas!!!! Will return for sure!!!

This is now our favorite mexican restaurant. Big menu, We have been coming since they have been open and ALL the food has been great. I am impressed because they give you plenty of everything including meat. They don't hold back. Quality of everything is really fresh. The brightest guacamole and the crispiest lettuce. My favorite part. EVERYTHING comes to you HOT. They bring you plenty of salsa and one time we ran out . Our server quickly brought us more. Friendliest Staff. Very attentive and upbeat happy energy. The servers are awesome about explaining the menu if you have questions. Communication with all the staff is really wonderful. There are so many really good drinks. They have a drink menu and the menu is huge. So are the drinks. LOVE LOVE LOVE the drinks. My personal fave is the Las Palmas "Coco" Margarita. Lovely to look at with all the fruit lining the rim. Inside is beautiful with Neon lights at the bar and beautiful paintings on the walls. Accents of mexican pottery everywhere. Very colorful. We love it. We even had friends come from Indiana for a visit and all 14 of them loved it. Service was spectacular that night too. Even with a big table of big eaters. They kept the drinks filled all night. read more

The service here is amazing!! We came on a Friday night and it was busy but not "wait 20 minutes for a table" kinda busy. It wasn't too loud but you could hear the music playing and you could still have a conversation at your table without having to scream. First out was the salsa and white sauce (look, I know some people are not fans but I am, I grew up in Hampton Roads so it's a staple, leave me alone about it) with fresh hot chips! Yum! The salsa was fresh and the white sauce was creamy. I like mixing them together to be honest. The kids ordered non-Mexican meals because my kids are uncultured swine (but I'm working on it) and they enjoyed their macaroni and cheese and cheeseburger. My husband ordered the lime steak served with broccoli and asparagus, it has a creamy cheese sauce on top. I took a bite and the steak was cooked to perfection! He was very pleased with his dish. I opted for the carne asada fries burrito smothered in cheese. The burrito included black beans, fries, carne asada, guacamole, sour cream, and cilantro. An excellent choice! It was huge and after stuffing my face with too many chips I was only able to eat half. That just means I have a lil snack for later! What was really great about this Las Palmas was the attentive service by everyone who worked there. Our waiter even made sure the kids were happy by giving them lollipops after our meal. The kids loved it and felt special. This is now my go-to Mexican restaurant in the Red Mill area! Nobody can compare! read more

Never had a margarita in a plastic cup before . That's just lazy ! It was not good at all . The food was blah and I ordered an enchilada queso, that came with no queso I had to ask for , still wasn't good , and yes it was in the description . Took forever to get our check . Horrible experience for cinco da mayo, especially since no one was there when we first arrived . They have definitely gone down hill from last yr . Prices are not worth it at all !! read more

I've been here with friends a few times now and they're really great! The staff is really friendly and connects well with customers. It seems an upbeat place to work and hang out at. Their grilled chicken tacos are amazing! Flavor is delicious and always a good pile of rice and beans. Double layer of corn tortilla so they don't break. Their tomatillo salsas are no joke, the brown is tasty and a little spicy but the red one is a nice spicy challenge for me. Cell service is lousy out there so they kindly post their Wi-Fi for folks to use. It's across the parking lot from the big Target in Red Mill. Sadly, last time I was there, some jerk kid horsing around with his grown father broke the lady skeleton's head. They have these porcelain figures on a bench behind the counter, with a sign, and some jerks saw fit to be careless over there and broke her. :( read more

always love their food! some of the best Mexican food around here! This place is my go to whenever I'm craving Mexican food!

The food was absolutely amazing and the service was equally impressive!! I was in town for business and decided to stop by and was I in for a great neighborhood treat. I'll keep this on the list, for the next time in VA Beach!! read more

AVOID. Placed online order on Father's Day 2022. The online system said my order would be ready for pickup in 30 minutes. 50 minutes later it was ready. Here's what I received: - Cold rice and beans - 4x Soggy taco shells that fell apart - Soggy tostada shell - Forgot the drinks that come with the 2x kids meals I think the food probably sat in the kitchen well after it was prepared, getting cold and soggy while waiting for someone to box it up. Maybe the kitchen is understaffed? Or was overwhelmed by the holiday? Or uninterested because I didn't tip for a to-go order? This was my 2nd visit to this Las Palmas location, the first being a dine-in experience. Common factors included music too loud for the size of the room, slow food delivery, and a rushed/chaotic vibe from the servers despite the food taking a long time to come out. I really wanted this place to be good. It would be nice to have another good Mexican restaurant in Red Mill. Instead, the only good Mexican place in Red Mill remains Senior Fox. read more

We came a month ago and ordered various dishes. The margarita and beer was good, the ceviche was quite fresh and so were all the other seafood entrees we ordered. Had a nice time and would definitely return. read more

Very bland Mexican cuisine. Was really looking forward to trying this place based on reviews. If you like plain bland food you'll enjoy Las Palmas. There's other really great places in the area to try. Just look up birria tacos and more than likely it will be authentic. read more

Second time here and a 5 star experience again! We both got lunch specials (pictured and named in the pictures). Service was amazing - our waiter was kind and attentive and the other staff around continually checked on us. This is our favorite Mexican restaurant. We wished we lived closer to come here all the time! It is one of our favorite vacation traditions to dine here. read more

Food is amazing. The service though...insane. I've never been at a restaurant where servers, even the ones that are not our server, stop at our table to check in and make sure everything is okay and if we need anything. We walked in and 3 employees greeted us in passing while our hostess got our menus. Everything was absolutely delicious and I cannot wait to return here!! read more

Best Mexican in VB!!! Seriously - all of their workers are singing and dancing so happy to be there and definitely has the best service in town! Their food is so fresh here with the best guac I've ever had. Our waiter Sergio is so sweet and attentive we became friends with him in less than 15 minutes of being there. The lady at the front I've seen a few times always recognizes me and makes me feel special with the kindness and attentiveness she gives me. Highly recommend! read more

This is the best American Mexican food east of New Mexico. There were so many wonderful vegetarian options which is such a treat. Service was wonderful. Clean with such great decor. Everything is fresh. So satisfying. Would visit VA Beach again to eat here. So glad the rain created an unexpected stop. All the stars. read more

Still a breath of fresh air. Delightful "Fiesta" atmosphere. Superb service and great menu choices! Went to have lunch today, and still realizing how much I enjoy the location, the gracious staff and the delicious food. Topping off today's visit was seeing the life-size Dia Del Muerto porcelain figures sitting on a bench wishing visitors well. Will return again. Highly recommended to all connoisseurs of authentic Mexican cuisine! read more

Service was friendly but slow and the restaurant was not busy. The Birria taco was really really dry and lacking in flavor. They did not give any sauce for it. The tacos already had onion and cilantro on them. I would have liked to put that on myself. The beans were overly salty. This was my first time here. I wanted to try it to compare with the other Mexican restaurants by me. I will not be back. read more

This food was flavorless, cold, soggy, wilted....absolutely awful. A huge disappointment based on the seemingly positive reviews. Are people writing reviews after having margaritas or what?! It's just not good here and way overpriced. From what I hear about what went on inside the restaurant during pick up, it sounds like their front staff is very rude. This is sad when people are having issues with money and inflation costs from Covid and all we wanted was a nice meal and this place gave us a mess. It was better when Burger King was there honestly instead of this restaurant. read more

Excellent! My wife and I were visiting from Texas and stopped in for lunch. As soon as we were seated chips and salsa were on our table. Drink order came shortly after. Waiter took our order and in no time our lunch special was on our table. The tacos were flavorful and juicy as was my beef enchilada. My wife's chicken enchilada was also good. Very attentive staff, clean restaurant, and reasonable prices. read more

This place was absolutely awful When you look at the cheese dip and no it's not good do you know the rest of your food is about to be trash The fajitas came out and they were non- sizzling at all! Definitely the bottom of whatever bundle they just made. I've never even seen this before but my beans were watered down. I actually chose not to eat a lot of stuff that I had because I just didn't want to risk of me getting sick. Maybe management needs to take a look at themselves or the rest of the staff I'm not sure I was just never come to this restaurant ever again and I do not recommend it for anybody please don't waste your time! read more

Stopped in yesterday for lunch with my friend from out of town. Great atmosphere with friendly workers. We got their queso dip for our tortillas that tasted good, but had a runny consistency. No complaints other than that. I ordered the cheese steak burritos with rice and beans. I was satisfied with my order. I forget what my friend ordered but she was also satisfied. Very quick service which is a huge plus. Several workers came to our table to see if we needed anything and to make sure everything was okay. Prices are reasonable and the service was great. I'll definitely eat here again. read more

The service was so fast and good! The al pastor tacos were the favorite and a great price for the amount of food! The weird Virginia white sauce they give you is really good! Very clean and nice! read more

Third time there, food was okay and margarita was good. Beer was warm, told us they didn't have any chimichangas, we had another waitress tell us they did have chimichangas. Original waiter didn't understand the language. Why is he a waiter? Got our bill had a $32 open bar liquor charge. Only had a $8 margarita Had to bring it to there attention. We will think hard about going again. Enjoy! Have a great evening. read more

This place is nice. Drinks are really strong and I love that!! Service is quick and pleasant. The atmosphere here is upbeat we really enjoyed the meal. Got a deluxe burrito and chicken soup. The soup was huge we had to get a to go box. The burrito was flavorful however really moist my plate was watery which was ok with me. Menu was full of pictures and prices seemed to be of fair market value. This is not our first visit nor will it be our last. The staff is constantly cleaning or on the move. I would definitely recommend this place over several Mexican spots in the area. read more
