    Margarita Flight
    Rebecca M.

    They are super friendly and always busy. Food comes out hot and fresh. All the servers are great.

    Seafood Burrito
    Carolyn C.

    Since there isn't much around this area, this restaurant tends to always be busy. However, just because it's busy doesn't mean it's amazing--the food here is incredibly salty. Each bite was more and more dehydrating. I felt like crap when leaving and I only ate half of my seafood burrito. The margaritas are quite large but the tequila pour is minimal.

    Yes! Your "portal" to a vibrant, colorful, delicious dining experience! I noticed a couple of other locations in the Northern Neck and they made me wish I lived closer! But, happily, I was visiting Callao with my niece and she recommended the food here! Score!! I love Mexican fare, and I lived in Southern California for many years and got to know great Mexican cuisine! Well, I felt as if I was trans"port"ed back in time when I entered this cheerful establishment! We were quickly greeted and seated by a friendly hostess. Our server came for our drink orders, the margaritas are large, tasty and priced right! I chose a Coronita, which they typically sell with another drink, but my server was quite accommodating and made an exception! Cheers! Now for the food! The chips, salsa and queso dip were yummy! Tangy salsa; crispy, lightly salted chips; and creamy rich queso! I ordered the carnitas, with rice and black beans. My niece had the taco salad. My meal was fabulous! Humongous portions of perfectly seasoned pork with all the fixings! I love cilantro and onions on the side! The pico de gallo had just a tad of heat which made it palatable. The rice and beans complimented my meal well and I really loved every bite! My niece was digging her taco salad too! I loved the festive Fiestaware! Eating great food on such colorful dishes makes me smile! The prices were average, but the service, cleanliness and food was above average! From the outside, this roadside Mexican joint doesn't look like much, but I promise you, once you enter - it's your portal to an amazing Mexican meal!!

    Crazy Burrito - steak burrito smothered in cheese sauce

    What a find! Food was awesome - fresh and delicious! Huge servings, and authentically Mexican menu choices rarely seen in other restaurants. I had the Filete Monterey and my friend had the Crazy Burrito. Both were cooked perfectly! Room for dessert? We had the flan - heavenly! This is a little gem on the Northern Neck!!

    The last three times having the burrito they put the steak on both ends but the middle is all filler. Same with the sea food burrito.
